Combine
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
((Triggering unit) has an item of type Claws of Attack +1) Equal to True // Boolean, "hero has item of type" check
(Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Claws of Attack +1) Not equal to (Item being manipulated) //Item check, necessary otherwise the item acquired would count double
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Claws of Attack +1 //Item type check
Actions
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Claws of Attack +1)
Item - Remove (Item being manipulated)
Hero - Create Claws of Attack +2 and give it to (Triggering unit)
Here's a slightly more advanced approach which breaks down the logic - it's really not that complex:
Combine Items
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Weapon Level 1
Actions
Set Inv_Unit = (Triggering unit)
Set Inv_Item = (Item being manipulated)
Set Inv_Item_Type = (Item-type of Inv_Item)
-------- --------
-------- Loop over our unit's inventory and try to find items that match our newly acquired item: --------
Set Inv_Matches = 0
For each (Integer Inv_Slot) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Set Inv_Other_Item = (Item carried by Inv_Unit in slot Inv_Slot)
Set Inv_Other_Item_Type = (Item-type of Inv_Other_Item)
-------- --------
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
Inv_Item_Type Equal to Inv_Other_Item_Type
Then - Actions
Set Inv_Matches = (Inv_Matches + 1)
Set Inv_Items_To_Remove[Inv_Matches] = Inv_Other_Item
Else - Actions
-------- --------
-------- If we found 2 or more matches then we know that we can finish the combination: --------
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
Inv_Matches Greater than or equal to 2
Then - Actions
-------- Remove the items used in this combination: --------
For each (Integer Inv_Slot) from 1 to Inv_Matches, do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Item - Remove Inv_Items_To_Remove[Inv_Slot]
-------- --------
-------- Create the new item: --------
Hero - Create Weapon Level 2 and give it to Inv_Unit
Else - Actions
Ok was going for simple, but now that you mention having it being able to automate the combination, how would I go and set that up? Originally the map was going to only have some items use this leveling thing, but now we figured might as well do it for the recipe stuff too. Once a player creates the recipe item, they would only need to buy the recipe by itself to increase it. This should help with items not being too much a hassle hahaHere's a slightly more advanced approach which breaks down the logic - it's really not that complex:
This design counts the item you just found as a "match", which is why finding 2 or more matches is considered a success and creates the new item.
You could easily turn this into a system that automates the process for every single item combination. This trigger plus a setup trigger for defining the different item combinations (ie: In a Hashtable) would be all that's necessary.

thank you uncle!Well, this trigger is currently setup for combining the exact same types of items. If you want a full blown recipe system that say combines Boots of Speed + Gloves of Haste = Power Treads, then you'll need to expand upon the concepts found in this trigger.
But before doing that, you can always try a pre-existing system for your item recipes:
Also, here's a system I made for someone a few years ago:
It seems to have a working recipe system that utilizes a Hashtable, although I can't promise that it's flawless.[Trigger] - Item System Not Working
EDIT: Solved, Uncle found the solution as usual :P I've been fiddling with this for about 6 hours before trying to post here, but sadly I'm not able to code this one out so I will need help with it. Basically, I have a shop. The shop contains items, and if you gather 2 items of the same kind...
