Remove items for each player

[Ascar0n]

Hello folk,

so: How can i remove items from a merchant for each player...
i mean: Player 1 buys an item -> remove for player 1 || Player 2 still got the item in the shop until he buys it too.

is there any chance of doing it?...
i looked around but i dont find something like that, just the "Remove item from marketplace", but this removes it for all players.

Sorry for the bad language

Thanks for help!

So you have the merchant that is shared between all players, anybody can select it/use it whenever they want.
Make the same building outside of the map boundary, just make your map slightly larger and set the camera view back via triggers.
In the area where players can not see, place one building for each player.
Then make a trigger that selects the players own building whenever they select the shared one they can actually see. It will make it seem like they are selecting the one they can see, but they are actually selecting the hidden one.
This way you can just remove the item from the players own shop and not change the shared one

Okay nice, this works.. thanks for this..

But there is no other chance to get this triggered?.. It takes a lot of map space..

 

[wolfman]

To make it take up less map space, you can make 2 different kind of shops that look the same and everything, but the ones that the players can not see could have a smaller collision size, maybe of a small doodad. That way you could place a bunch of them on top of each other so they would only take up the space of maybe 1 or 2 shops.
The only reason to make them look the same is so it will look the same in the portrait when the player is selecting it.

And there is no other way to do this with only one building as far as i know, but i could be wrong

 

[Ascar0n]

Okay, thanks for ur support, i will take your idea

 

[wolfman]

No problem

 

[Ascar0n]

Damnit, ive got a prob.
My hero needs to stand besides the "shop-dummy" ...
i cant buy the item.. :S
Sorry for this again

 

[wolfman]

Okay, just make the shop ability have unlimited range. I forget what its called, but make the hidden shop have unlimited range (or at least the largest range possible) for acquiring the hero. But make sure you take away the effect of it or else it will make the arrows above all of your heroes heads indicating that they are near a shop when they really arent.

 

[Ascar0n]

Well, finaly its done.. works fine.
Just one final question:

i want to remove the item: (its in german, sorry for that, i hope u can read it)
Player 1
Ereignisse
Einheit - A unit owned by Spieler 1 (Rot) Erwirbt einen Gegenstand
Bedingungen
(Item-type of (Sold Item)) Gleich item1
Aktionen
Neutrales Gebäude - Remove (Item-type of (Sold Item)) from Market <gen>

mhmm.. still there.
What shall i do with this trigger to remove those item...

 

[Garfield1337]

Instead of creating multiple shops,just do

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Sells an item (from shop)
  • Conditions
    • (Triggering unit) Equal to Your shop
    • (Item-type of (Sold Item)) Equal to Your item
  • Actions
    • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer == GetOwningPlayer(GetBuyingUnit()) then
    • Neutral Building - Remove (Item-type of (Sold Item)) from (Triggering unit)
    • Custom script: endif

This will remove the item bought from the shop only for the owner of buying unit.

I'm not sure if this might desync though.

 

[defskull]

Neutral Building Action ???
Never heard

EDIT:
Whoah, never thought I'd seen that "new" action
Oh well, how outdated I am >.<"

 

[Ascar0n]

Sorry Garfield,
i dont get your idea work... can u explain it please?
i dont understand ur action aswell

 

[Garfield1337]

What is it that you don't understand?
I think it's clear

This will remove the item bought from the shop only for the owner of buying unit.

However,it might desync.

 

[Ascar0n]

First of all, whats desync? :S Im not that good in eng.
I get a error message with the custom script... i dont know how to fix it.

 

[Garfield1337]

• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetBuyingUnit()) then

My mistake,try using this ^

Concering desyncs and local players,you can read much about it here: http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/cat_usersubmit.php?view=89207

Desyncs are errors that cause players in multiplayer game to disconnected from the game due to desynchronization. They mostly occur when GetLocalPlayer() function is used improperly.
I'm not sure if the way i showed will desync or not!

 

[Ascar0n]

Well okay, no error anymore.

• Quest1
  • Ereignisse
    • Einheit - A unit Verkauft einen Gegenstand (aus dem Laden)
  • Bedingungen
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Gleich Market
    • (Item-type of (Sold Item)) Gleich Item1
    • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetBuyingUnit()) then
    • Neutrales Gebäude - Remove (Item-type of (Sold Item)) from (Triggering unit)
    • Custom script: endif

But it still dont remove from my shop...
it has the sell item ability and is a neutral building.

 

[Garfield1337]

After some testing i realized that function

• Neutral Building - Remove Item-Type from Marketplace

only works for items added by function

• Neutral Building - Add Item-Type to Marketplace with 0 in stock and a max stock of 1

So you will have to add the item you want removed with that function to the shop.
Also make sure your shop has "Sell Items" ability.

 

[Ascar0n]

Absolulty awesome! Works perfect.
Dude, thank you so much! ^.^

 

[Garfield1337]

Be careful though,if it happens that in multiplayer game a player disconnects when that trigger is executed,it's probably due to that GetLocalPlayer() function.

 

[Ascar0n]

Tested it a few times, works perfect.. sorry for the late answer.
But i found a new problem..
1 of my items can be bought @ lvl 2. But the user can buy it aswell on lvl 1, but he wont get it.. item removed, but no item (because of lvl 1)
I hope u understand the prob.

Thanks for everything

 

[Garfield1337]

I don't really understand what you mean...
You want a certain item to appear in shop after some hero reaches level 2? If so,what's the problem?

 

[Ascar0n]

No i dont want the item added @ lvl 2. i want that the player can buy it only at lvl 2 .. He can see it, but only can buy it as he reaches the lvl
Is there any way of doing this?
