[Trigger] Easy Item Limitation

reatek · Oct 3, 2009

I need an easy trigger that drops an acquired item if you Hero already has one it. I made a trigger, but it is not working and I don't know how to fix it!

Events
A unit Acquires in Item
Conditions
((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type (Item-type of (Item being Manipulated))) Equal to True
Actions
Hero - Drop (Item Being Manipulated) from (Hero Manipulating Item)

+ rep for help

then you need another trigger, that recognizes unit drops item and set the boolean to false once again

PvSvN Your Trigger doesn't work that good...

PvSvN · Oct 3, 2009

what do you mean ??

reatek · Oct 3, 2009

Well I don;'t mean like it's bugged, but doing this with a hundred items is a pain in the ass.

Totally right.I guess you should find a way to save all hero current items,and then make a search for the newly acquired items.If he already has it,drop it,else keep it.

If anyone has an idea please help

it looks like this trigger isn't so easy to make it faster...

reason 3 · Oct 3, 2009

Let me try a bit.I will edit this post later.
Ok,i think i found a way to do it.It should be something like this

LimitItems
- Events
  - Unit - A unit Acquires an item
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set ItemType = (Item-type of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 1))
  - If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    - If - Conditions
      - (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to ItemType
    - Then - Actions
      - Hero - Drop the item from slot 1 of (Hero manipulating item)
    - Else - Actions

Did you understood my point?Can you make the rest of the trigger by yourself?Or do you want me to complete it and attach a demo map with it?

A demo map with the triggers will be great! I will check the triggers aswell.. If it is possible to make a demo map it will be great...
Sorry if I'm asking for too much... :|

reason 3 · Oct 3, 2009

No its fine,i can make a demo map.But you will have to wait unti later tonight cause i don't have time now.If its ok for you i will upload it later

reatek · Oct 3, 2009

No problem! This is not the last thing to do in my RPG so i'm not really in a hurry

THANK YOU!

reason 3 · Oct 3, 2009

I will fix it later tonight and i will attach a demo map with it.
Here is the demo map i promised

reatek · Oct 4, 2009

Hmm... I just checked it, but I found some bugs and I think you noticed them too

. Like when you drop an item the variable doesn't go -1...

reason 3 · Oct 4, 2009

yes exactly^^.I will try fix them.Although i need some time

I will post an updated map later,i hope you don't mind waiting.

EDIT:Hmm...I think i have understood the problem...but i don't see a way to fix it.Each time you pick an item the integer goes up up up like 2,3,4,5,6 ...and then if you drop an item it stays like this.Then each time you try to pick an item the integer is for example 8 and due to conditions you can't pick the item again.A possible way to fix this would be to set it to 0 or -1 again,but it seems i'm out of ideas.Any suggestions?

EDIT2:Nevermind,i found a way to do it.Working on it...

EDIT3:Ok i think i fixed the bug you mentioned.Anything else?
All these integers cause me a headache,so i gonna work on it again later.

reatek · Oct 4, 2009

Hmm.. I don't get your point at all! Every item should be level 1 and an Artifact ? Or every item should be different ? I don't get it :eekani:

. Should I just send you my little RPG for you to put the system in ?
