Turning items into other items

[Spectre4802]

This would make a lot more sense to those who have played 'Custom Hero Arena'. I think DotA might also have something like this.

*Ahem*

You know how in some games (Hero Fights and RPGs in particular) you can dump a few items in a 'Vault' building and have it churn out a much better item? For example:

Iron Sword + Magic Dust = Magic Sword (When put into the 'Vault')

that sort of thing. Or, somthing like:

Iron Sword + Magic Dust + Ruby + (Ability: Forge or somthing similar) = Magic Sword (When put into the 'Vault' and 'Forge' has been clicked)

If anybody can help me on this, that would be great.

The magic behind this is to check available items on a unit against a recipe(unit has Item1,Item2 etc) upon item pick-up events,then remove recipe(usually lesser) items and add the new one to triggering unit.

There are several systems that can do that, or you can do it yourself manualy.
Anyway if you wish to learn or simply use an existing one:

Thanks for that, Kingz. Helped a lot.

Is there a way to do it without JASS or a ton af variables?

 

[Kingz]

Well you will need variables either way, i could probably make you an easy recipe combine system but now i am bussy, maybe for a week
