Hello everybody, I'm having a little bug on one of my latest trigger and i'm out of ideas so I come here seeking help and knowledge.
I'm new here tell me if i mess up !
I've been developping a pirates themed map for a bit of time and I am trying to build a market system where in the init of the map, each market would be assigned 5 random tradeable items out of 15 initialized in the tradeable goods list (each picked item class is put at the end of the list, and the limit is length-a to ensure uniqueness), then one is randomly picked as the cheap good (the offer) and another one is picked randomly from the 1 to 15 items of the tradeable goods list (to ensure they are not sold there, and become the Demand) and dummy abilities tooltip are filed to display offer and demand to the player. here is the code :
Set VariableSet itemTypeTemp = tradeableGoods[(Random integer number between 1 and 10)]
Set VariableSet itemTemp = (Random item in initItems <gen> matching ((Item-type of (Matching item)) Equal to itemTypeTemp))
Ability - Set Tooltip of Demand to (Demand : + (Name of itemTemp)) for level marketNumber
Ability - Set Extended Tooltip of Demand to (Description of itemTemp) for level marketNumber
Unit - Set level of Demand for (Picked unit) to marketNumber
Set VariableSet marketNumber = (marketNumber + 1)
For some reason, the tooltip get all messed up. I test this using three markets, and one is never initialized at all and the tooltips of the other ones don't match the code. It looks a bit like the a(0) is never initialized, a(1) = a(o) and a(2) = a(3).
Set VariableSet itemTypeTemp = tradeableGoods[(Random integer number between 1 and 10)]
Set VariableSet itemTemp = (Random item in initItems <gen> matching ((Item-type of (Matching item)) Equal to itemTypeTemp))
Ability - Set Tooltip of Demand to ((Demand+ (String(marketNumber))) : + (Name of itemTemp)) for level marketNumber
Ability - Set Extended Tooltip of Demand to (Description of itemTemp) for level marketNumber
Unit - Set level of Demand for (Picked unit) to marketNumber
Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Name of itemTemp)
One of the market (the one without correct init tooltips) has lvl 2 Offer/Demand as well as one of the market. However, the item sold by all markets are correctly initialized. It also seems with the game - messages that the loop works correctly.
EDIT :
So, i made big changes because i notices that in fact, only the tooltip itself is bugging. I decided to transmit data via integer field that i don't otherwise use (level and formation rank) and to display it using a spell. Here is the code :
Item - Set the custom value of (Random item in initItems <gen> matching ((Item-type of (Matching item)) Equal to tradeableGoods[1])) to 100
Item - Set the custom value of (Random item in initItems <gen> matching ((Item-type of (Matching item)) Equal to tradeableGoods[2])) to 100

I reinit the list of good so theirs position in the array is the same as the id in their description, and the other init phase is used to store the gold value of the item (because for some reason blizzard decided it wasn't necessary to be able to access it), to calculate the discount/bonus pay.
Still, while it seems to work fine, intels about offer and demand still are wrong : they sometime offer unsold items and simply don't work, while the demand and offer trigger seem to work properly
