Saving Slot of item...

[ZiGOR]

Hi everyone!
I created an Item "Armlet of Mordiggian" like in d.o.t.a... I made a trigger that switches 2 different items when this item is used, but tell me please how to save the slot number where this item was? Because it always jumps to the first free slot....

add 6 items, remove the item, add the new item, remove the 6 items

add 6 items, remove the item, add the new item, remove the 6 items

And if hero already has some items besides this item?

 

[gorillabull]

for each integer a from 1 to 6 do action
loop
if hero has item in slot [Integer A] then
set variable = Integer A

then remove the item and add the item to the specific slot

 

[ZiGOR]

for each integer a from 1 to 6 do action
loop
if hero has item in slot [Integer A] then
set variable = Integer A

then remove the item and add the item to the specific slot

Can't find "add the item to the specific slot" does such a field exist???
Could you please make some example-map for me? (bonuses are not important, just for me to see how it works)

 

[gorillabull]

edit: sorry i cant make this in gui it bugs, the item only gets replaced if its in the first slot
maybe you can try maker's method and it might work for all slots else use this http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin_data/gjscxn/_files/armlet.w3x

@gorillabull, that is pretty good, but you could use Skip remaining actions like this:

Triggers Untitled Trigger 086 Events Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability Conditions (Ability being cast) Equal to Thunder Clap Actions For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions) Loop - Actions If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions) If - Conditions (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A))) Equal to Claws of Attack +15 Then - Actions Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A)) Custom script: call UnitAddItemToSlotById(GetTriggerUnit(), 'ratc', bj_forLoopAIndex-1) Skip remaining actions Else - Actions Untitled Trigger 086 Copy Events Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability Conditions (Ability being cast) Equal to Avatar Actions For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions) Loop - Actions If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions) If - Conditions (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A))) Equal to Claws of Attack +12 Then - Actions Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A)) Custom script: call UnitAddItemToSlotById(GetTriggerUnit(), 'ratf', bj_forLoopAIndex-1) Skip remaining actions Else - Actions

ratc and ratf are item raw codes, check them by clicking Ctrl + D in object editor. ratc = Claws +12 and ratf = Claws +15.

Sometimes I'm so pity that I don't know jass...
Good Job! Thanks! +

Guys! How can I make an item cooldown when it is switched to another???
I meen when I use the Armlet of Mordiggian and in changes it's shape...

 

[gorillabull]

it all depends on what ability the item has and the cooldown of that ability

It has an ability Berserker and Berserker 2 and they both have 5 seconds cooldown, but cooldown doesn't appear even when I spam this item...

 

[gorillabull]

this complicates things quite a bit because you are removing the item, you are also removing its cd instance, you cant make the unit drop the item because the armlet has no duration and the internal cd might expire while you are using it only way i see it working is get the cooldown item, use it to make it cooldown. this will replace it then remove the replaced item and add the original item which you initially replaced which is now on cd because you just used it. this had to be done after casting the first spell and ull need some extra code to detect if the item is already used and replaced to be on cd
use a boolean

Doesn't seem like it will work... Interesting how Ice Frog made it in dota...

Can't u make an an ability based on berserk and use a dummy unit to cast it on the unit when the item is removed. Just set the cool down of the ability to 5 seconds. Also note jass is very easy to learn just read the tutorials if u don't understand something just ask

There is no buff...
1 - berserk is a self buff
2 - there is no buffs, Item gives some bonuses
3 - i already have the cooldown, but it doesn't start working and changes an item...

Is there any opotunity to set ability cooldown when it is given to me?
