Level Requirement for item spells.

[Mouzyy]

Gday my fella, i have some crab problems here.

You may know, that if you have unit with more spells based on 1 ability, it wont work properly because you wont be able to use the second one. I wanted to add some tab with summoning spells, but there are only 5-6 summoning spells and i need around 11. So i decided to make this summoning stuff to Charged items, like Infernal stone. But, item abilities dont requires level like hero´s. So:

Is it possible to add requirement to item spell, so you wont be able to cast it until hero have level of X?

Thanks very much.

I don't have the solution to that but I can tell you how you can do it with the original idea:

You create 11 different versions of the spell "channel". Every one with a modified order ID (channel is the only spell where you can edit this order ID)
You make it non target and create a trigger like this:

Event: Unit starts effect of ability:
Actions:
If(Ability being cast = Summon1)
Create dummy, add summonSpell1 (a real one which actually does what the dummy spell is supposed to do)
Set level (if nessacery)
Make dummy cast
add timer to dummy

If(spell = spell2...)
then you can add the 11 dummy spells to a spellbook and your done

you could do dummy items which show the level requirements
on level up you run a trigger which checks the requirements and if they fit it replaces the dummy item with a working one

Hmm, thanks!

But i must say im a noob and i still dunno- Whats a dummy spell?
And About the Channel stuff- You mean hero Channel spell, the one with Death Pact icon?

And last evil stuff- Is there a guide to do this Spellbook things? i still dunno how to create this.
