[Trigger] Werewolf transformation

[kallimann]

I'm trying to make a trigger that transforms a unit into a werewolf during the night:

• Night2
  • Events
    • Game - The in-game time of day becomes Equal to 18.00
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set BjarturNormalPoint = (Position of BjarturNormal)

    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Unit - Change ownership of BjarturWereWolf to (Owner of BjarturNormal) and Change color
    • Unit - Change ownership of BjarturNormal to Neutral Passive and Change color
    • Unit - Move BjarturNormal instantly to BjarturWereWolfPoint

    • Hero - Set BjarturWereWolf experience to (Hero experience of BjarturNormal), Hide level-up graphics
    • Unit - Set level of Lycanthropy (Bjartur) for BjarturWereWolf to (Level of Lycanthropy (Bjartur) for BjarturNormal)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • AttributeLearned Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set level of Attribute Bonus for BjarturWereWolf to (Level of Attribute Bonus for BjarturNormal)

      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • JumpLearned Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set level of Jump (Bjartur) for BjarturWereWolf to (Level of Jump (Bjartur) for BjarturNormal)
      • Else - Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Dummy (Locust) (All) for (Owner of BjarturWereWolf) at (Center of BjarturDummy <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set BjarturDummyAura = (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Add Lycanthropy Dummy (Bjartur) to BjarturDummyAura
    • Unit - Set level of Lycanthropy Dummy (Bjartur) for BjarturDummyAura to (Level of Lycanthropy (Bjartur) for BjarturNormal)
    • Hero - Modify unspent skill points of BjarturWereWolf: Set to (Unspent skill points of BjarturNormal) points
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Hero - Give (Item carried by BjarturNormal in slot (Integer A)) to BjarturWereWolf
    • Unit - Set life of BjarturWereWolf to (Percentage life of BjarturNormal)%
    • Unit - Set mana of BjarturWereWolf to (Percentage mana of BjarturNormal)%
    • Selection - Select BjarturWereWolf for (Owner of BjarturWereWolf)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_BjarturNormalPoint)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_BjarturWereWolfPoint)
    • Trigger - Turn on Day2 <gen>
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

and a similar trigger for the day.

to add make the unit learn spells i have these triggers:

• Learn Bite2
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Bite (Bjartur)
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Triggering unit) Equal to BjarturNormal
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Learn skill for BjarturWereWolf: Bite (Bjartur)
        • Set BiteLearned = True
        • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Triggering unit) Equal to BjarturWereWolf
          • Then - Actions
            • Hero - Learn skill for BjarturNormal: Bite (Bjartur)
            • Set BiteLearned = True
            • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
          • Else - Actions
            • Do nothing

for each spell, but when the unit is supposed to transform it has only learned one of the spells i wanted it to learn (all the spell triggers are the same except for the different spells they teach).

Unit - Set level of Lycanthropy (Bjartur) for BjarturWereWolf to (Level of Lycanthropy (Bjartur) for BjarturNormal) <-- This is using up your skill points ,store it to a var before switching

Hero - Modify unspent skill points of BjarturWereWolf: Set to (Unspent skill points of BjarturNormal) points <--you should put this to a var before switching. more simple and foolproof.


Edit: chain IF/THEN/ELSE
eg; If
-condition
Then
-Action
Else
-If
-Action

[kallimann]

how would I save it as a variable?

 

[Pharaoh_]

I don't get it; second trigger has the event "A unit learns a skill" and then you add an action "Learn skill"? Well, nice to meet you, this is the default function. Why don't you "Unit - Add (Ability) to (Unit)" instead?

 

[kallimann]

I have 2 units that have to learn the same ability at the same time, due to how the other trigger works

 

[Thesorrow]

You use action
Set Variable

You create variables in variable editor (when in trigger editor CTR+B)

[kallimann]

I know how to create variables, I meant to ask what type variable i should use

 

[Zmore]

Have you eaven set the Variable "BjarturNormal" and "BjarturWereWolf"?

 

[Thesorrow]

Both the Level of ability and unspent skill points are integer.

 

[M4stah]

You are really pushing this with hard triggers. Make a edit of the Chaos ability, it changes unit-type but transfers stats, location and skills. For the skills you can use a invisble unit called Night, and make that unit a Requirement for the skills. Then create it trough triggers at night

Damn you. I had this same idea!
