[Solved] Move entire Hero Inventory from one Hero to another

[Voltron212]

Hello! I am creating a system for a TD where there are multiple builders, and the player eventually has the option of switching between each builder. I want to make it so when a player switches builder - their inventory also carries over to the new unit. All my builders are hero type as to make it so they can sell Units (which is how the switching works).

Currently the trigger I have set up for the switching is:

This works pretty well for the switching. I tried adding an action "Unit - Order (Selling Unit) to give (Item carried in slot 1 by (Selling Unit) to (Sold Unit)", combined with a 0.1 wait trigger which allowed for the item in slot one to carry over... But when I added actions for the items in slots 2 - 6 as well... It still only carried one of the items.

I have considered creating item slot variables for each player builders item slots... But I don't understand how assigning a Variable could work any differently when inserted into the action mentioned above.

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

• For each (Integer ItemLoopInteger) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Hero - Create (Item-type of (Item carried by (Selling unit) in slot ItemLoopInteger)) and give it to (Sold unit)

Put this before the remove and select action and it should do it. For better functionality selling unit could be triggering unit.

Worked like a dream! Thank you so much!

It'd be better to transfer the items from one unit to another:

• For each (Integer ItemLoopInteger) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Hero - Give (Item carried by (Selling unit) in slot ItemLoopInteger) to (Sold unit)

The action is called "Hero - Give Item To Hero". Don't be fooled, it doesn't need to be a Hero.

Updated to this one as it does make more sense for the action to 'Give' the Items to the other unit! Thank you both for your help!

I have been working on a gui trigger for my map to move items to the exact same inventory slots and without interrupting orders. When I entered the thread I realized I had done an error in my previous trigger when I didnt consider charged items. I have now reworked the trigger (only took about 6 hours) but cant help to feel like there is a better option with a custom script than my cheesy system, except the fact its gui. I will post here because maybe @Voltron212 cares about items ending up in the exact same slots.

Is there is a function that I can use with custom script to move an existing item located on the map to a units specific inventory slot without interrupting orders, basically: "Hero - Give Item to unit in slot #"?

In a thread, @Maker mentioned "call UnitAddItemToSlotById(unit, itemId, slot)" but I am unsure of how it works. What does "itemId" mean and does it require the creation of a new item?

The reason I made the trigger was because I have art (effects) on units when they carry items but after replacing the skin (which is done a lot with a certain spell) of units these effects disappear and to reset the effects I seem to have to drop the items from the unit and then give them back, lul. Maybe worth to mention is that I change to a skin that has no attachment points then back to the original skin. The spell is used anywhere from 0-400 times during a game.

Short explanation of triggers: I set charges of items to max so charged items cant stack and place cheese in empty slots so that slot order is maintained. This allows for units orders not being interrupted by move item order. Because I cant move an item to a certain slot without interrupting orders I seem to must use cheeses and several loops. Here are the relevant parts of my current triggers.
