[Trigger] My First Recipe

[SilverSong]

I'm tryng to use the site tutorial to make my very first recipe. (Auto-Combine)

But I've run into numberous problems, and it seems like I have to go back and learn variables before I can go forwards! How irritating!

Problem 1:

Events: Unit - No Unit aquires an item.

For some reason I seem to need to specify a unit. But whenever I try I just end up going to world editor palette. So I try selecting a hero and I just rubber stamp a hero onto my map, trying to get it to work. Not what I had in mind.

Problem 2:

I want to restrict what forces can make a certain item. For example I want to turn a stick into a squash. But only if YOU are on the Night elf side, or the Universal side. If you are on the Naga side then it doesn't auto-combine.

Problem 3:
The condition
((Hero manipulating item))
I'm dumb I simply can't find it.

Problem 4:
Is there a way to make the script wait until a character is level 10 before the stick becomes a squash. And then is there a way to wait until the character is level 50 before the squash becomes an apple?


note: this is a learning recipe so that I know what to do next time, and have something I can refer back to.

How I made recipes before

• Events
• Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Acquires an item
• Conditions
• (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tannery
• Actions
• If (((Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 1)) Equal to Stag Skin) and ((Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 2)) Equal to Antlers)) then do (Item - Create Net at (Position of (Triggering unit))) else do (Do nothing)
• -remove-
• If (((Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 1)) Equal to Stag Skin) and ((Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 2)) Equal to Antlers)) then do (Item - Create Net at (Position of (Triggering unit))) else do (Do nothing)

I am not certain what the diff is, or why one would be so much better than another.

[SilverSong]

thanks a lot!

I'm having a little bit of trouble figuring out on the list which one I want to get the effect of (hero manipulating item) can you tell me what it's called? Thanks!

++rep!

 

[Gost]

Sorry for late response ive been busy, to get to hero manipulation item you would do as such:

Click last created item, change it to item carried by hero, then in the drop down list under Event Respone, there should be one called hero manipulation item.

 

[SilverSong]

here is what I have. I am having difficulty finding the appropriate conditions I was able to get the condition of Hero manipulating item but it will only work a certain way, I can't get hero manipulating item to be the first thing mentioned.

• Squash
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Last created item) Equal to (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 1)
        • (Last created item) Equal to (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 1)
      • Then - Actions
        • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Tome of Experience)
        • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Tome of Experience)
        • Hero - Create Tome of Experience and give it to (Hero manipulating item)
      • Else - Action

 

[Just_Spectating]

Condition Boolean - Hero has item Type

 

[Gost]

Remove your conditions and go to "Boolean > Hero Has item type"

EDIT: Sorry for repeat answer.

 

[Lingonberryjam]

I was wondering, hope its not off topic, that if you want a recepie to require two of the same itemtype, then those triggers wont work just adding another condition of the same kind...

do you have to count the items in the slots or there an easier way?

 

[Diablo-dk]

I'm not sure if it is possible to make it multi-itemtype compatible in GUI(if it is then it would require some complicated counting of some sort)

Incase you want to avoid this bug check my signature for a recipe system.

 

[SilverSong]

found it thanks guys!

 

[Gost]

Diablo there is a way ^^:

• Recipe

    • (Custom value of (Item being manipulated)) Not equal to 1
  • Actions
    • -------- Checks if you have Stickx1, hide, and rope --------
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Stick) Equal to True
        • ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Hide) Equal to True
        • ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Rope) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Drop (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Stick) from (Hero manipulating item)
        • Item - Set the custom value of (Last dropped item) to 1
        • -------- Drops 1 stick then checks if you still have Stickx1. --------
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Hero manipulating item) has an item of type Stick) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Hide)
            • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Rope)

I use more simplier system

 

[Sox10]

?!?!?

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)how do u get that

 

[Just_Spectating]

its in the actions list near the begining, you'll see a trigger "if then else"

 

[Sox10]

I Know where the If Then Else is But wheres the If (((((All Conditions are True))))))

 

[Just_Spectating]

.... the "if/then/else Multiple actions" action.

 

[Sox10]

Thx

THX!
_________________________________________________________________

[Just_Spectating]

go crazy. you click the weird √/X thing on the post and apply a comment to the rep.

 

[Sox10]

=)

Ok Thx know I now how to rep people +rep

There is a way better way to have multi type item combining.
Make a few item type variable named "tempitem1", "tempitem2", etc.

Then when the hero acquires an item, the trigger will set all the tempitem variables to zero.

Then for every item type you want, you will run a For Loop from 1-6:
if the item type in slot (for loop integer A), If it is equal to the item type you want, then set tempitem1=tempitem1 + 1

You would then do that for every item type that you want to combine.

Example: So if you wanted to combine 2 boots of speed, you would make a
tempitem variable.
For every integer 1-6, do actions:
If item type of item carried by hero in slot (for loop integer A) is equal to boots of speed, then set tempitem=tempitem +1

Then, you would make an if, then statement:
If tempitem >= 2 then, remove boots of speed, remove boots of speed, give hero the item, uber boots of speed

 

[Just_Spectating]

if you picked up an item for the combination, then pick up another item for another combination it will screw up and then you pick up the item for the first combination the item for the second combination will go away.
