[Ninja_Duels]

DO yo mean the icon?

 

[M4stah]

Give the unit that is affected a ability based on pshere that rewuires your upgrade with the attachment. Trough triggers, remove the old ability

 

[Amigurumi]

• Iron Sword
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Current research level of Iron Sword for Player 1 (Red)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Remove Attach1 from (YourUnit)
        • Unit - Add Attach1 to (YourUnit)
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Current research level of Iron Sword for Player 1 (Red)) Equal to 2
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Remove Attach2 from (YourUnit)
            • Unit - Add Attach2 to (YourUnit)
          • Else - Actions

Maybe this works...

If you want to be effecient, try to use the evnt: A unit finishes a research

yes, it's better, but I was in hurry, and I've only looked at Events-Player, and there was nothing, so I made it with periodic timer.

 

[xDeathKnightx]

but how would i make the Upgrade effect a whole type of units? E.G. Orc Raider's or peons

 

[Amigurumi]

• Actions
  • Set TempGroup = (Units of type Peon)
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Your Actions here
  • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

I made it leakless for you :3, just make a UnitGroup variable named TempGroup.

 

[xDeathKnightx]

yeah im not that good with triggers, so how would i put it so that every 0.25 Seconds, it does that to every peon in the game belonging to player 1 ?

 

[Amigurumi]

this is the trigger with every 0.25 seconds

• Attachment1
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.25 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Current research level of Iron Sword for Player 1 (Red)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type Peon) and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Remove Sword from (Picked unit)
            • Unit - Add Sword to (Picked unit)
      • Else - Actions

 

[xDeathKnightx]

Is this right??
[EDIT] Replace Raider 0254 With ( Picked Unit )

And do you know how to get rid of this?
[EDIT] The wrighting is only ment to come up once

 

[M4stah]

Use a better method. Make 3 abilities based on human-spehere with your attachments. one has no techtree requirements, the other your research. Its in object data of the ability.

• Example
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes research
  • Conditions
    • (Researched tech-type) Equal to Iron Forged Swords
  • Actions
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) of type Raider) and do (Unit - Remove Sphere from (Triggering unit))

 

[Amigurumi]

Make this, and it should work properly, hope there aren't any faults

• Attachment
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.25 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type Peon) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Current research level of Sword for Player 1 (Red)) Equal to 1
          • Then - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Level of Sword1 for (Picked unit)) Equal to 1
              • Then - Actions
                • Do nothing // ignore this, don't add Do nothing
              • Else - Actions
                • Unit - Add Sword1 to (Picked unit)
                • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Attachment
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Current research level of Sword for Player 1 (Red)) Equal to 2
              • Then - Actions
                • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • If - Conditions
                    • (Level of Sword2 for (Picked unit)) Equal to 1
                  • Then - Actions
                    • Do nothing
                  • Else - Actions
                    • Unit - Remove Sword1 from (Picked unit)
                    • Unit - Add Sword2 to (Picked unit)
                    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Attachment
              • Else - Actions

//Edit: m4stah was faster, and with a smaller trigger, shame on me D:

[HaniBon]

Good =] glad I could help a little
Btw, ty for the +rep

EDIT

My bad! There was a error in the other playergroup, try this one:

• Your trigger
  • Actions
    • Set PlayerGroup = (All players matching (((Matching player) is an enemy of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True))
    • -------- When you are done with all your Actions, do this --------
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_PlayerGroup)

(full trigger):

• Your trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead
  • Actions
    • Set PlayerGroup = (All players matching (((Matching player) is an enemy of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True))
    • Player Group - Pick every player in PlayerGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Environment - Reset fog to default values
        • -------- Some other actions, such as timer --------
    • -------- When you are done with all your Actions, do this --------
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_PlayerGroup)
