Item that makes attacking impossible!

[Syntic_Arrow]

Dear Hiveworkshop'ers!

The problem is the following:

I want a unit to not be able to attack anyone when the unit has acquired a certain wielding item. However, the attack function must only be disabled when the unit wears that/those specific item(s).

I tried my best, I couldn't find a way to do it!

I hope someone can help me with it, preferable in GUI, but JASS is oke, if you tell me clear on how to implement it and what I need for it

Yours sincerely,

Syntic

You could do this:

• Init Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item being manipulated) Equal to "Your Item"
  • Actions
    • Set Unit_With_Item = (Hero manipulating item)
    • Trigger - Turn on No Attack Trigger <gen>

• No Attack Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Ordered unit) Equal to Unit_With_Item
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(attack))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order Unit_With_Item to Stop

• End Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Loses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item being manipulated) Equal to "Your Item"
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off No Attack Trigger <gen>

Or you can make an item with negative attack damage bonus and disable attacking abilities for hero when he'll aquire that item.

thanks! I will check if it works

thats the problem! I dont know how to disable attacking ability on the hero when wearing an item!

P.S. the trigger didnt work! I could still attack the target after I worned the item!!

You could add an ability that makes him miss on every attack, or one that reduces his attack speed to 0. I thought the trigger would work, though

Make trigger like this:

• Aquire
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to YourItem
  • Actions
    • -------- For this system you will need point variable, a dummy caster and spell based on silence --------
    • -------- Dummy will cast silence modified to prevent all attacks --------
    • -------- Note: Silence has option to prevent attacks --------
    • -------- Note: Be carefull when setting targets for your silence --------
    • Set TempPoint = (Position of (Triggering unit))
    • Unit - Create 1 Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)
    • Custom script: call IssueTargetOrder( GetLastCreatedUnitBJ(), "silence", GetTriggerUnit() )
    • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

• Loose
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Loses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to YourItem
  • Actions
    • -------- Here we just need to remove silence buff from unit --------
    • Unit - Remove YourSilenceBuff buff from (Triggering unit)

Can't you disable and enable attacks via researches or via triggers?
Or push it all into one trigger:

• Item Disable Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - a unit is attacked
  • Conditions
    • ((Attacking Unit)has Item) equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Attacking Unit) to Stop

You get my point? Just use that basis.

Not correct. Silence can be modified to prevent both attack 1 and 2.

Well, that's the way to do it...
When the unit gets the item make a dummy unit silence it (or when the unit attacks others), remove the buff when item is thrown.

It is exactly what I did in trigger above.
