[Trigger] Need constant Item drop ^^...

[Ultimazed]

Hello, I want my creeps to drop a particular item, even the creeps that aren't on the map yet (Are created afterwards...) , how do I do it ?

• Gold Drop
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Item - Create Gold Coins at (Position of (Dying unit))

If you do not want this created at just any unit's death, then use a condition.

If you have several types of units that drop different things then you would use the If/Then/Else function as an action where you can use different conditions for different unit types or owners and drop different items.

• Item Drop
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Item - Create Gold Coins at (Position of (Dying unit))
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Item - Create Replenishment Potion at (Position of (Dying unit))
      • Else - Actions

If you have a lot of units that will die and want a bit of randomness with how often that object drops a one trigger method of adding "randomness" to how often the dropping takes place would be:

• Gold Drop
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Item - Create Gold Coins at (Position of (Dying unit))
    • Wait 0.10 seconds
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Wait (Random real number between 15.00 and 90.00) seconds
    • Trigger - Turn on (This trigger)

All of which are variations on a theme.

Actually, because of the first wait on your second trigger it's possible for it to bug(although unlikely).

Here's some "randomness"

• Special item drop chance
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Neutral Hostile
  • Actions
    • Set Dropchance = (Random integer number between 1 and 100)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Thunderfury_Dropchance Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Item - Create Thunderfury at (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Else - Actions

"Dropchance" is an integer.

In case you want a random system for a huge number of items, you would like to set all your drop items to a variable harray and then use loops to make it, like the example below

• Unknown
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Item[1] = Claws of Attack +15
    • Set Item[2] = Thunder Phoenix Egg
    • Set Item[3] = Amulet of the Wild
    • Set Item[4] = Potion of Omniscience
    • Set Item[5] = Sun Key

• Unknown2
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Integer = (Random integer number between 1 and 5)
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • Integer Equal to (Integer A)
          • Then - Actions
            • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
            • Item - Create Item[(Integer A)] at Point
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
          • Else - Actions

You could change chances of drop by changing numbers, for example setting a normal items with 1 number beetwin each one (num1=1, num2=2 etc.) and rare items with bigger diffrence in numbers (num5=10, num6=20, num7=50 etc.).

Err that loop dosn't make sense to me, it would work without it. Would look like this.

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Dies
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Custom script:local integer udg_X
  • Custom script:local location udg_Point
  • Set X = (Random integer number between 1 and 5)
  • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • Item - Create Item[X] at Point
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)

Add local variables too. The Dropping could get wired when multiple Units are killed at the same time.
