[Solved] Trigger AI Buy Item From Shop

[Heaven Editor]

I know this has been discussed before. Does anyone has any idea to how implement this?

AI's hero goes near shop -> Take the AI's gold -> give the hero the item.

Edit: Also I suppose you take one away from the shop, so it looks like it was bought.

How to remove one item from a shop? I want it to cooldown so shop can sell again. I don't think trigger can...

 

[pOke]

The best way to do this I can think of is...

At the start of the map you create a dummy that the shop can select (i.e. no locust).
Then whenever you want your AI to buy this item, you call a trigger that orders a neutral player /unused computer or whomever is free and can own the dummy and Order them by Id to buy the item. (Make sure they have enough gold or whatever is needed.)
Then you can just instantly remove the item from the dummy and create and give the item to the AI's hero.

Order them by Id to buy the item.

But how to do this? Do you have the id? I could not find it.

 

[pOke]

Create a trigger: give it the events Unit is issued an order targeting an object/targeting a point/no target.
Edit: Buying an item will be a no target order.

Then in the actions.

call BJDebugMsg("Order ID: " + I2S(GetIssuedOrderId()))

This will spit out a number then when you want to order your dummy to do that id you call:

 call IssueImmediateOrderById(udg_yourUnit, #####)

Oh I have to check the id myself. Okey. Thanks +REP
