Trade System

[UmbraUnda]

I want to set up a trade system similar to Age of Empires. Market has trade-able resources and also serves as a trading post for trade carts - the dock also works for merchant ships.

Are there any systems already out there that could be used as a template or can somebody summarize how I should go about triggering this?

Bump

I'm not sure what trigger lines to use however I have an idea on what events\conditions\actions to use
I imagine the trade units have a trade ability which will trigger in events when the ability is used within range of market/dock. Then in conditions, check that the market/dock is owned by another player (other than self) who is also an ally - then trigger actions: wait 1 sec, play new animation (load/unload cargo), and move back to player owned market/dock then auto-repeat.

Anybody know what lines to use in GUI or Jass? Or wants to help make it?

If you are still developing the details of the concept, I think that the readers and authors of the triggering subforum will be more competent to help you refine the specifics of your system. In this subforum you might be lucky and find someone with coding skills who bakes the whole system for you from the ground up but it's less likely to find someone that discusses triggering with you here.

I can think of some things:
I assume you want some automation. You might want to press an ability button, maybe target a market building manually, and then your tradesman unit goes back and forth doing his thing by himself, right? This creates some additional consequences for your concept:

• What if a player has more than one market? I assume that the tradesman will have to return to the nearest market. You will need a system that detects the nearest market. This will have to scan markets more than once because you'll need a recalculation each time you build a new market.
• What if the player has his market destroyed and later rebuilds it in a different spot? Should the tradesman stop when the market is destroyed? Should it restart automatically when a new market is built?
• What if he gets attacked? Should he flee? Should he return to the task after fleeing for a while and surviving?
• Of course if this is to be used in a multi-player fashion, it needs proper indexing to be made MUI.

I can definitely see close proximity between your ageofempirish trade system and the gold mining system of warIII. On the other hand, I cannot say if you can modify the blizzard mining abilities to suit your purposes, and to what extent you can do so. I suggest you get an opinion from someone with knowledge in triggering about the feasibility of the system you're imagining, and the parts that must be detailed further.

I am a triggering noob so I can't really help beside stating the obvious like i wrote here above. Cheers.
My suggestion is to see if this can be assimilated to an additional gold-based custom resource harvesting system, where the gold mine is your ally's market and the town hall is your own market.
Of course this would require that simultaneously your market is both a town hall (for you) and a gold mine (for your allies) and vice versa for each player and his allies. No idea if that's implementable.

Thanks for the feedback. I feel you however I asked for advice one time and simply mentioned if you wanted to do it all go ahead and the thread was moved to Requests - so I thought that would happen again if I posted in Triggers.

Good points. This trigger is going to be more complicated than I thought. Not sure about having the market as a gold mine, that would complicate my other resources.

Alright - I'll try posting for advice in the Triggers section and won't mention anything related to requests. Hopefully the trigger moves one step closer to completion.

Cheers!

Well I'm pretty sure you can avoid all the troublesome points i listed if you can make it like another custom resource, because then you can rely on the default unit behavior system pre-made by blizzard, they'll behave like the usual workers harvesting resources: they'll find the nearest return point by themselves and will react to attacks normally.

 

[UmbraUnda]

Well actually, I have someone working on a custom resource system right now. And one of the custom resources is gold (old gold is now food) - and all trades will use gold as currency. Hmm - interesting, sounds do-able except for all the other variables that have to be accounted for. I'll post in triggers system later tonight.

I made something similar to this awhile back. It was set up by selecting start and end destinations, you could pause and resume the walker and it would carry mana to the target destination, pretty simple stuff. I'm not sure if that is how you want it implemented so futher details would be needed.

Anyway, I could provide you with the code (don't recall how functional it ever got) or maybe revisit it, but can't really spend any great amount of time on it presently.

Hey mate - long time no see.

Glad you replied, I'd like to see that code. Could help me and a couple trigger people i know to develop this.

 

[hypsandar]

this is potatoes.

 

[UmbraUnda]

this is potatoes.

are you saying this is bad? or not worth it? or incredibly tasty and appetizing?
