[General] Item Trigger

[Zenonoth]

1-Let's say I want a trigger where a unit picks a specific item, when he does he learns an ability, when he drops the item he loses that ability.

2-How do I make it so that it rains on a specific region

3-How do I disable cheats such as: ''Iseedeadpeople'' in my map?

willing to give reputation and credits to anyone who helps.

1.

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
• Conditions
  • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Your Item
• Actions
  • Unit - Add Your ability to (Triggering unit)

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Loses an item
• Conditions
  • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Your Item
• Actions
  • Unit - Remove Your Ability from (Triggering unit)

2. Right-Click on a region's name, then select "Edit Region Properties", check the "Weather Effects" box and select whatever effect you need.

3. You could create a small region at a corner of your map surrounded by boundary (make sure it's always invisible to every player). Then create a trigger like this:

Show Trigger

• Events
  • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
• Conditions
  • (Point is visible to Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
• Actions
  • Visibility - Create an initially Enabled visibility modifier for Player 1 (Red) emitting Black mask across (Playable map area)

*The "Point" variable has to be set at the map initialization as the center of the Region. Be careful to disable this trigger during cinematics.

Assume that a unit acquired specified ability and then he uses metamorhosis ability or of such kind, then how to make so that specified ability wont dissapear?
-I got problems when unit dies, the unit loses ability after reviving
-when transforms
-when acquires the same type of item a second time, so two identical items in inventory

 

[Arhowk]

Assume that unit takes two identical items and it merges into new one. What to do plz help

Please make a new thread next time. Also, there should be absolutely no change to the trigger, assuming ur removing both items than adding the result.

  • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Your Item
• Actions
  • Unit - Add Your ability to (Triggering unit)

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Loses an item

• Actions
  • Unit - Remove Your Ability from (Triggering unit)

A small note: Transformation skills such as metamorphesis and I think also maybe the Hero death removes the addition ability.
I think the only way to counter it will be

• Events
  • Time - Every 1 seconds of the game
• Conditions
  • Actions
    • set unitgroup = units with the item type
  • pick every unit in unitgroup
    • if unit has not have the ability
      • Unit - Add Your ability to (Picked unit)
• call DestroyGroup(udg_unitgroup)
• set unitgroup = units with the ability
  • pick every unit in unitgroup
    • if unit has not have the item
      • Unit - Remove Your ability from (Picked unit)
• call DestroyGroup(udg_unitgroup)

There is the "Unit - Make ability permanent" action for that. No need to make a periodic trigger.

How I wish you can differentiate between GUI and JASS.
It's call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(whichUnit, whichAbilityRawCode)

 

[Tirlititi]

Oh noes. That renders my post totally incomprehensible .

 

[defskull]

Haha just making sure he's not wasting his life searching for that function in GUI ;p

A weird trigger, first time I see it. Just where you learned that from? I mean, is there a list for triggers done only by Jass?

Let's say when you do lots of coding and research, you'll learn something new.
I found that script over at Internet Google Search.

All I can say is, experience taught me everything I need.

Did I do it wrong?

 

[best_player_88]

How I wish you can differentiate between GUI and JASS.

can you explain it further? "which unit" should be placed with what?

You ignored my question twise and tried to act all mighty about knowing how to use this, you failed in writing this down so it took me 10 minutes to search all over the google to realize how to use it (there was only 1 post which mentioned it so it was really hard even after it was found since they didn't tell much either) Well, that's a good thing I managed to find it, but you sir, don't deserve any reputation for that attitude.

 

[defskull]

And I thought naming the parameter using the standard naming procedure might help you to understand it.
whichUnit by logic, refers to what unit you ask ?

You would expect the whichUnit is the unit that your neighbor is using... ?

Also, blame you for not using the powerful option given to all users on THW and it's called Search, learn how to use it before post another similar thread that has the same solution.

Here's the list of the similar solution you would found (keyword: UnitMakeAbilityPermanent);

And the list continues...

And I'm sorry, the correct function is: call UnitMakeAbilityPermanent(whichUnit, true, whichAbilityId)
I missed that boolean parameter in the middle, that would make that ability becomes permanent.
If it's set to false, it would cancel the effect (making the ability non-permanent).

I know it was incorrect, because after 1 hour of searching I finnaly hooked out from google that your phrase needed that fix, which gave me the solution. I was sure you done it to prove I don't know "basic jass" but if you didn't then, Thanks.
