I just want to ask...
How to make item ownership like in DotA?
which when you wear the item but doesn't belong to you it will not add damage, armor, or stats, and turn also into look like disabled icon with "Item Doesn't belong" name below the item... and then you cannot destroy the item or sell it ... Thanks in advance.

Well you could do when item - last picked by owner of unit -blah- = true- is picked by -lasted picked by owner of unit -blah- = false- instantly drop item?

I don't have warcraft III on me so all I can do is guess from what I remember was in it.

i think (99.99% sure) they use fake item for each item...so they just replace the real item with fake one if it gets to wrong owner

would it help if hero cant get/target item at all?

else you could make all item´s abilities in spellbook and diableing/enableing item´s ability would be easy

but than you cant make item go dark but you could set his charges to 0 so at item it will display "0"
