Shop Event

[pred1980]

Hi,

when you move with your hero to a shop, it makes a short sound and all items are buyable.
Can i react to this kind of event?

it's shop ability comes to action
you should use UnitInRange events

I did... but how can i get the shop as the target unit? The triggering Unit is the the unit who comes in range ... but how can i get the shop?

Have one trigger per shop and map the shop to the trigger using a hashtable (then you can load it with GetTriggeringTrigger()).

Or you can make rects around each shop and then check which rect the unit is in, and map the rect to the shop (with a hashtable).

By "map", I mean to save the shop under the handle ID of the object. e.g.
call SaveUnit(hash, 0, GetHandleId(<trigger>), <shop>)

no easy way to get the shop with this event?

 

[edo494]

dont forget shop can re-select who it points to

@PurgeandFire: Thx for the idea... it works... sad that there's no direct event response to get the shop Anyway... wc3 mapping is known for its workarounds

Have a nice all!!!
