Revive a hero via Item

[Vermelhin]

Greetings,

I have a castle defense map, where heroes that die are respawned after hero level + 30 seconds, and I'm trying to make an item that revives a random hero that are currently dead. I tried using hashtables, but chose to use unit arrays instead. Here is what I got so far:

Turn On: this is where I set a boolean to make the system know someone has the item and therefore turning all other triggers on.

Spoiler

• Eye of Horus Activate
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Eye of Horus
  • Actions
    • Set Eye_Boolean = True
    • Trigger - Turn on Eye of Horus Array <gen>

If someone drops the item or sells it, turns all other triggers off:

Spoiler

• Eye of Horus Lose
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Loses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Eye of Horus
  • Actions
    • Set Eye_Boolean = False
    • Trigger - Turn off Eye of Horus Array <gen>

Here I define which and whom hero dies and store them:

Spoiler

• Eye of Horus Array
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • Eye_Boolean Equal to True
    • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • ((Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)) or (((Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 2 (Blue)) or (((Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 3 (Teal)) or (((Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 4 (Purple)) or ((Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 6 (Orange)))))
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Revival_Boolean[1] = True
        • Set Revival_Array[1] = (Dying unit)
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 2 (Blue)
          • Then - Actions
            • Set Revival_Boolean[2] = True
            • Set Revival_Array[2] = (Dying unit)
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 3 (Teal)
              • Then - Actions
                • Set Revival_Boolean[3] = True
                • Set Revival_Array[3] = (Dying unit)
              • Else - Actions
                • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • If - Conditions
                    • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 4 (Purple)
                  • Then - Actions
                    • Set Revival_Boolean[4] = True
                    • Set Revival_Array[4] = (Dying unit)
                  • Else - Actions
                    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                      • If - Conditions
                        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to Player 6 (Orange)
                      • Then - Actions
                        • Set Revival_Boolean[5] = True
                        • Set Revival_Array[5] = (Dying unit)
                      • Else - Actions

I'm almost sure that these ones are correct, unless someone tells me it isn't. But this one I feel like there is something missing:

Or if someone would have a hashtable solution, I'm open to suggetions. Any help would be much appreciated still.

Just when the hero die add him to a unit group and when you use the item do the action "Revive (Random Unit of that group)" and remove him of that group.

PD: You should use "Or Multiple conditions"

I mean, you get too complicated, you don't need all that.

I realise that now, I feel really dumb. I managed to get it working, with your help ofc.

Ok your welcome, one more thing, thats not necesary either use those "or", just use the condition "Boolean Comparision - Dying unit is belongs to ally of Your_player equal True".

 

[HerlySQR]

And one more thing, Why is necesary add the units that have that item to a unit group? Because its only necesary that they have the item and you aren't use that information.

And just in case, the second trigger has an error: If one unit drop the item, all the units in that group are removed.
