Learn a hero skill from a vendor

[ItachiTraitor]

+Rep Hey guys, I need this trigger where a hero buys a tome of power from a vendor, and I need it so that hero will learn breath of fire once you buy that tome of power, and once you learn it, the red hero button will appear and you will be able to put skills points into it.

Does anybody know if there is such a trigger??

Please and thank you!

I'm not sure how to link the whole code, but this is what i'm using:


Event: Unit - A unit Acquires an item

Condition:
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Breath of Fire

((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True

Action:
Hero - Learn skill for (Triggering unit): Breath of Fire

Hero - Modify unspent skill points of (Triggering unit): Add 1 points

And thats it

Any reason why it ain't working?

To begin with, your Hero doesn't have this ability, right ?
So, if you didn't put anything inside the Object Editor, considering your game is an "item-buying-level-up-ability-spell-system", you can only level up your ability through buying that item and through trigger
The red cross, can't appear as the game interprets it very well that the unit doesn't have the ability to begin with, thus returning a null result.

Yes, my hero's don't have the Ability, I wanted it so you could buy the item, and then the hero's would be able to level it up themselfs through skill points. But I guess everything you plan out doesn't always go your way, and there are flaws into these things. Thanks man, i'll use the vendor-buying one.

There is a cumbersome way by using the 'Engineer Upgrade' of the tinker. This ability can transform other abilities that the hero already possesses. So you had to have stub abilities on your hero that are only there to be replaced (you can hide them) and for each of these stub abilities you would have an 'Engineer Upgrade' per purchasable ability in order to allow it on each stub and therefore for each combination.
