Trade Gold for Lumber

[Hell_Raider]

I was wondering if there was a way to exchange gold for lumber. I was originaly going to do it by buying an item for a certain amount of gold and then selling it for a certain amount of lumber but I could not figure out how to do this. I also do not want it to be a 1 for 1 exchange as lumber is far to easy to come about on my game...

Its all ready an item called;
Bundle of lumber under Power Up.

 

[Hell_Raider]

but can't that item only be picked up by a hero?

 

[x3GlikE]

Unless you want to trigger it which would be hard if you wanted it to be picked up by a unit with no inventory.

gv ur units inventory..

Just use a simple trigger, that when a unit buys a unit for 100gold it removes the unit from the game instatly (some dummy) and gives 200 lumber to the player. 3 lines of code.

I wanted to know this too, but thanks for the map man and I'll check it out for my use.

Is there a way to make 100 gold = 300 lumber and 300 lumber - 100 gold? they are not exactly equally rare on my map

"Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing Empty String as A substring"

I cannot seem to replicate the option "Empty string" and if I copy your triggers it breaks it itself... any ideas?

Edit: ah, never mind. just realised how stupid that question is

 

[Hell_Raider]

umm it seems both in the map you sent and my recreation map both "-gold number" and "-lumber number" turns gold into lumber...

 

[x3GlikE]

Yeh let me fix it

Edit:
Should be fixed..
