Ideas for recipe system

[Abovegame]

Ok so i'm kind of stuck with this and need your help guys!

How does one go about and make a recipe system where each item requires two or more different items in order to be made ? I would know how to make a system where only one type of item is required but more items ?

I made a recipe kind of system for a contest. Zephyr Contest #14 - Unique Summoning

Basically I'd imagine you have an array of items that contains all required items. You look through the list and once you find an item, remove it from the list. Once the list is empty you know you have all the items.

If jass supported multi dimensional arrays this would be a piece of cake.

No need to hack around with arrays, you can do it really easily in wurst in an OOP manner, and if you're a programmer, you could as well learn it. Also you can do it in vjass but I can't recommend it.

Agreed. I would not expect someone who asks this kind of question to be familiar with wither jass or wurst.

You can easily use multi dimensional array in jass if the total size (MAX_COLUMN*MAX_LINE) is under the array limit.
set array[line][column] = array[line*MAX_COLUMN+column]

For instance :
array :
{10, 11, 12, 13},
{14, 15, 16, 17}

array[0][3] : array[3] = 13
array[1][0] : array[4] = 14
array[1][3] : array[7] = 17

Thanks guys! I'll have to give wurst a try when i get the chance.
