[General] How to prevent item sharing?

[stan0033]

Um... I wonder how to make a player unable to share his items with another player by drag-and-dropping on ally unit. But meanwhile to be able to sell to shops and being able to drop on the ground.

whats the point, when I can just drop the item on the ground and he can pick it up anyways. I think this needs to be triggered, when you give items it either fires one of the item events, or a order event, you can just order the unit to stop probably(or return the item if it is item event)

Because I forgot to say, it's for computer players. They won't pick up items.
And I don't know how to trigger it.

You could store the "owner" of each item (the player who buys it) in a hashtable. When a unit acquires an item, if they are not owned by the same player as the owner of the item, it drops automatically.

It might also be easier depending on how this is set up. You could make a trigger that drops any item they get immediately. When you have the hero buy items, assuming it is triggered AI, you can turn off the trigger while they do their item purchases and turn it back on right after (I mean within the same function call). That way, only the items they buy will make it through the auto-drop trigger.

I never would have thought others would want to restrict item sharing as well.

^But its in vJASS and requires you to make a copy of each item you want to have sharing-restriction.
But its very easy to use, even a GUI user can use it easily.

You give us lowly GUI users too much credit. Nothing comes to us easily
