[General] Trigger-added items won't show colored Tooltips

[Eikonium]

Hey!
When adding items to a vendor via trigger, the first part of its tooltip (which usually contains the items name) does not show any colors.
It's just plain white, meaning that even Summon |cffffcc00Albus Dumbledore|r will be displayed as Summon Albus Dumbledore, although it should be Summon Albus Dumbledore.

The second part of the tooltip behaves as normal.

Is there a way to show the color?

The best solution that came to my mind, was emptying the basic tooltip line, and write it into the advanced tooltip.
But this either leads to heavy displaying bugs (when completely emptying the basic tooltip) or to a space line on top of it (when only putting a space in it), so I am not yet convinced.

I would like to hear, if you have any ideas concerning this problem

Greetings!

Actually you should change the "Tooltip - Basic" instead of changing "Name" cause the name is just for the editor and the tooltip - basic is the In game name with tooltip extention being the description. FOr yellow type -

|c00ffff00 Albus Dumbledore|r (try copying this it will work 100 %)

You just changed the editor name, as said above..

Funny that you think that I've mistaken the name with the basic tooltip^^
I did actually not mistake them

The problem here is:
The color is displayed normally, when adding the item to the vendor in the object editor.
The color won't show up, when I add the item via trigger.

Please try it for yourself

I have a similar problem. My ability won't show it's manacost in-game, so I have to write the manacost in description. Does anyone know why does this occur?

I had this problem too. I also believe that adding items via trigger will remove them from the market when the stock was gone. What I did is to create a new store with the added items since in my situation, there are only two possibilities, one with extra items and one without the extra items.

Now that I see people having this problem, I recall having the same problem in my map; Adding items to the shop removes the color of the key shortcut (eg. [F]).
And also the shortcut doesn't work.

We request assistance in solving this!
Although I know a workaround to this, but I want to know is there any other way.

This problem did not occur for me, although I remember having it in an older map of mine.
It could be related to the item settings, or to the abilities you gave to your neutral market. Let's share both, we should find it out

My settings

Item Settings

Neutral Markets abilities are: Ane2, Aall (or AaII?), Asid

Although I know a workaround to this, but I want to know is there any other way.

I would be interested in that workaround
Could you share it with us?

Yes, in my situation, the shop is Neutral. Maybe that is what caused the Removal of Item at zero stock.

Doesn't have anything to with the type of item does it? For example: You are using the item as a powerup, what if you changed it to consumable or something else. Doubt it make a difference, but Just a thought.

 

[Eikonium]

Tested all types, but none of them disappeared.

@ShadowFlux: Which abilities does your neutral card market use?

I'm not on PC so I can't look. But I recall I have Select Hero. Anyway, that won't solve your problem.
Is my workaround not applicable to you? Two existing shops with different Items Sold.

 

[Eikonium]

To be honest, I wanted to help you in that matter, because I thought that you didn't want the items to disappear
Indeed, this won't solve my problem at all.
Your workaround is not applicable for me sadly, because I use the Add Items function to refresh the cooldown of the sold items.

I currently use the method of writing the whole tooltip in the advanced tooltip line, but that's not satisfying because of the problems which I mentioned in the first post.

advance tooltip line??

I have a german editor, so I can give you the exact name. I mean the second part of the tooltip which you can edit. That one shows colors properly.

 

[PublishedShadow]

Hmm, I wonder if adding units via trigger to a Mercenary camp has the same problem that adding items to the shop has.

Don't know, sorry^^

They didn't find a solution in the end

how to stop this from showing? makes different editor very long time to find unit

This are RAW values. Ctrl+D
@Eikonium, the workaround to my problem would ve to just create more same shops with wanted items.
So, if I select easy mode, I'll create the shop with all items, andif I let's say select hard mode, if I don't want to display some items, I'll just create different, but same shop with only few of those items. Exactly the same with adding items.

Does this makes sense to you?

That's my workaround too but he already stated that it is not applicable.

 

[BloodDrunk]

Oh well, too bad then...

 

[Eikonium]

The reason why I can't use multiple shops, is that I use the Add items function to refresh the selling cooldown of specific sold items, while others shall remain on cooldown.
That can't be ensured with your workaround.
Nonetheless, I thank you for sharing it

 

[wcity]

the shop has marketsplace ability? because they change item if sell is done

 

[Eikonium]

As I am using the German editor, I'm not sure what the marketplace ability is.
Via raw codes (press ctrl+d to look at them in the object editor), the shop uses the abilities: Ane2, Aall, Asid.
