How to tell WE if unit is an item?

[TheBlooddancer]

So, i was wondering..

I'm making this trigger making the unit unable to attack, by giving it a 'move to position of triggering unit' every time it recives a smart/attack order on an object.

Problem is; This works on items too.
So my hero can't pick up items. I couldn't find any place to 'Target of order is not equal to item' or such.

Help, please?

(I couldn't decide to to put this in triggers and scripts or WEHZ, so here goes)

erm, perhaps you can do it the other way around: instead of checking whether it is an item, check whether it's a unit.
Maybe something like this helps:

• ((Triggering unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True
• ((Triggering unit) is A flying unit) Equal to True

Put an Or - Multiple Conditions around it and it should always return true for units, it might just do the trick :/

 

[PvSvN]

isnt it

• (Target item of issued order) Equal to (Item being manipulated)

So you're saying that i should check it as a non-ground and non-air unit?
I don't think that's going to work.

Also ^ that won't work. I'm not manipulating any item (aquiering, selling etc.)

Ehh, I thought you were making a trigger that makes a unit stop with an attack-order.
If the target of order is either a flying or a ground unit, then stop him, otherwise don't...
If you target an item, it won't be a ground/flying unit, so he won't be stopped, right?

Did I misunderstand anything?

this is the trigger i made fast to see it i could pick up a item or not.

• test
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Target item of issued order) Equal to (Item being manipulated)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To (Position of (Triggering unit))

It will pick the item up but not attack unit/object

Whoa, really? I'm just going to try that out, then.

EDIT: Yes, it works, but problem is, my hero has to be able to attack /sometimes/.
With this, she can't attack at all, but can gather items.

• RandomName
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • CurrentWeapon[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Equal to No item
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tester of tools
    • (SOMETHING HERE THAT MEANS THE TARGET IS NOT AN ITEM)
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(attack))
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(smart))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To (Position of (Triggering unit))

This is my trigger.

Use, STOP instead of MOVE, also you leak a position.

 

[PvSvN]

it auto attack if you are in the range but it stops spells

 

[Maker]

With this you can pick up items, but if you right click on enemy units or order the unit to attack units, it will stop. The unit will still auto attack enemy units in range.

• Untitled Trigger 093
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Target unit of issued order)) Not equal to No unit-type
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(attack))
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(smart))
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Loc_1 = (Position of (Triggering unit))
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To Temp_Loc_1
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Loc_1)

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Use, STOP instead of MOVE, also you leak a position.

Stop doesn't work, and the leak is intentionally.

Also, Maker, that won't help. The idea is for my archer not to be able to attack without a 'current weapon'.

    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • CurrentWeapon[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Equal to No item

I kind of meant that change

• (SOMETHING HERE THAT MEANS THE TARGET IS NOT AN ITEM)

->

• (Unit-type of (Target unit of issued order)) Not equal to No unit-type

If that's not what you're trying to do then I missunderstood you.

 

[PvSvN]

ok i think i've got it now
it will pick up any item but not attack till it has a specific item

• test
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Item being manipulated) Equal to (Target item of issued order)
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Phat Lewt) Equal to (Item carried by (Matching unit) in slot 1)
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To (Position of (Triggering unit))
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions

ive tested it and it works

Is no-unit type a possible unit-type? If so, then it's probably the right one.

EDIT: Doesn't work, the archer can still attack debris such as crates or barrels.

PvSvN (Sorry if i spelled that wrong)'s version works just fine after i've added my condition (current weapon = no item)

Thanks again.
