[General] Units in the shop require teechtree upgrade.

[BonerBoo]

Hello, can someone help me? I'm making something like a war, where you buy units from the shop and the spawn and move towards enemy base. But i got one serious problem.


I want to build/upgrade something to allow buying units.
(if i want to buy and spawn footmen, i need to upgrade metal works)

So how do i do that ?

Add that UPGRADE to the units upgrade requirements in the object editor, its somewhere at the bottom, just experiment a little with it xD. Hope this helps bro.

I have already tried it. Still a unit is beeing bought not trained. So it does not require that upgrade. this is my problem. You can actually buy all units , skipping their requirments.

 

[Tom_Almighty1]

Hmmm... I dont know, but you can do it with triggers xD
I could do it for you if you want, but many other people are better than me, Im only good with GUI.

In the object editor, there should be a techtree upgrades required for the items/units/upgrades delete everything in there and you can just uncheck the check requirements box. Hope this resolves your problem

 

[BonerBoo]

How would you do this ? Can you post a quick trigger ?
Like adding a unit to an shop? ... But i would like to already have unit in the shop but it should be disabled. Like normal unit in barracks with required upgrade

Mhm, but how this will help me ? I want to units in a shop require an upgrade.
Like to buy an Archer i need to invent arrows. Like buy an upgrade before.

hmm..

Make it an Item in the shop called (FOOTMAN) that is sold for 0 gold and lumber.
Then add it in description that it needs UPGRADE and is sold for (VALUE) gold.

If unit sells an item.

If item is equal to FOOTMAN

If current research level of UPGRADE for player is equal to 1 and has more than or equal to (VALUE) gold.

then remove item (FOOTMAN) from buying unit, create a footman at position of SHOP for player, set gold of player to gold - (VALUE)

Else, remove item (FOOTMAN) from buying unit.

Thats all I can help you with, I dont know how to do disabled versions, srry

 

[BonerBoo]

Well , is's realy complicated ! ;/
still , +rep

But i would like to know something more easy...

Then what about you make custom technology(arrows) from a technology(upgrade) again from object editor and set the necessary stats then go to the archer unit and set the techtreee requirment to(arrows) that should do it i think

Another option is having abilities for creating units. Abilities can be made to require upgrades.

I think you don't get what i want to do

Im npt training units , I'm BUYING THEM FROM THE SHOP.
The thing is that you can buy everything you want.
And i want to do some requirments to buy that unit

Set them to be made items, not units. Then if a suitable item is bought you remove the item and create a unit.
(Made items are like trained unit, as in, they can require upgrades. But unlike units, they are instant)

You can skip the remove item step and just make the item a powerup aka use it on acquisition

now i get it okay i'm gonna look for a solution but it'll be like this i think

I don't recommend that. Have you ever seen what happens when a tome is used up?

Made items(not sold) can have techtree requirements, elseway, yeah.

So, how would i do that ? I should put items to a shop, and when i buy an item lets say called: footman, it will spawn with triggers? ...

As i did , is simple shop with units, i buy some, trigger removes bought units , and creates them in the base , they auto-attack an enemy base>

its simple, but now i shoud make items, and when i buy them , units will spawn?

The unit spawning should be triggered.
The techtree requirements can easily be done with object editor(items can have them, if put in the "Made" list)
