Give items when unit is created...

[Arth99]

I'm making a hero arena map and I want to give a player a special item depending on the hero that they chose. I don't want to end up with 50 triggers if you know what I mean.

I have 12 different players and each player has an altar. They train their hero which is one of: Paladin, Rogue, Ranger, Warrior, Mage, Death Knight, Healer, Warlock, Shaman and Knight. When the hero is made an item appears next to them to make sure they are well equipped.

you should use somekind like this:

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer B) from 1 to AMOUNT, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to (==) ANYUNITTYPE[(Integer B)]
          • Then - Actions
            • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer A) from 1 to AMOUNT, do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Item - Create ITEMTYPES[((Integer A) + ((Integer B) * 100 ))] at (Position of (Trained unit))
                • Hero - Give (Last created item) to (Trained unit) <-- Just a suggestion
          • Else - Actions

Set up variables, remove leaks then I'm sure it will work.

If your map trains the hero at instant rate, use this Event:

• Unit - A unit Sells a unit

If not, use geries' Event

This trigger detects what hero is trained/bought
Then, give the item accordingly
The "Make unit unavailable for training" action is an option
It's just to avoid the player choosing the same hero again
Test map attached
Unknown Bug: If you choose other heroes first, leaving Panda alone, he can't be chosen. The requirement is "Default string". Therefore if you want to fully test all the heroes' difference in item, you should choose Panda first.
