Making sell system ;o

[xIceShotx]

Im trying to make a sell system, i can make one very easily using the point values in object editor, then giving the player the gold, but i want to make it so it only gives you 75% of the gold given. I do not want to calculate the price to 75% (ex: 1 building cost 100g, i do not want to do 100gold-25% of a hundred, (this can be done through calculator program) just to find 75% of what the unit is worth.), i just want to do it simply in GUI, so i dont have to change 100 units point values, and calculating them x_x. It just takes too long, but if this is the only way, i don't mind i guess, i just want to know if it can be done in GUI.
+rep will be given ofc. (unless i just gave you rep )

Let me get this straight, you buy something that gets returned 75% from its original price ?
The true price of that something is only 25% ?

I really don't get it.

I just want to add a sell ability to towers that sells that tower and gives 75% of what its worth. g2g

Nestharus has a GetUnitCost system in the Jass section.

If that doesn't help, you could just write:
native GetUnitGoldCost takes integer unitid returns integer
native GetUnitWoodCost takes integer unitid returns integer

In the map header.

Then, in a custom script:

set udg_buildingCost = GetUnitGoldCost(GetUnitTypeId(udg_YOUR_UNIT))

Then you would use the GUI variable buildingCost.

Enjoy.

It says "expected end of line", what does that mean ?

 

[Magtheridon96]

I really don't know.

Show me your code/triggers/whatever.

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set MyUnit = (Triggering unit)
    • Custom script: set udg_buildingCost = GetUnitGoldCost(GetUnitTypeId(udg_MyUnit))

Integer variable name buildingCost
Unit Variable is YOUR_UNIT

Are you sure you put the natives in the Map header? :|

 

[defskull]

Yeah.
Perhaps it requires JNGP ?

 

[Magtheridon96]

Why, yes.
I think it does.

The only other ways that don't require JNGP:
- A system that sets the gold of Player 13 to 1000000, creates a builder, orders him to build in a certain position on the map, and finds the cost by subtracting the the current gold of player 13 from the 1000000.
- Caching all unit prices in a hashtable (which is terrible)

Is there a way to get item cost?

 

[Magtheridon96]

Why.. yes.
Nestharus made a system for it.
It creates a dummy shop, makes a dummy player buy the item for a dummy unit he owns after setting his gold to 1000000.
The item cost would be 1000000 minus the gold of the dummy player currently.
Use Player(13) or Player(14) for this.

I see. And how do you command them to buy?
