Yeah, i was wondering if my map would be any funny if u can have how many weapons as you wish, but ive fixed it now, but i want some help with my multiplau rpg, i have tried with this and i wonder if there are any more effective ways?

Event
Unit - A unit enters Necromancerslct <gen>

Condition
(Unit-type of (Entering unit)) Equal to Wisp

Action
Unit - Create 1 Kel'Thuzad for (Owner of (Entering unit)) at (Center of Hero spwn <gen>) facing (Position of (Triggering unit))

Unit - Set the custom value of (Last created unit) to 1

Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

then i keep on doin the same trigger for all heros, and have diffrent values on all my triggers.

but i wonder about the "hero finds weapon" trigger and the "hero drops weapon" trigger, am i supposed to make 1 of thoos triggers for each players??

My system? Or another system?

You don't need a find weapon or a drop weapon trigger for each player, just change the event to a Generic Unit Event, rather than a "Player Owned Unit" event.

The Idea of getting the hero a weapon in there hand is something I was thinking about... (If so its arthas or some one it doesn't help because they already have for their model a weapon) so like say a vilager hero picks up a wrench... Yay now he holds a wrench... BUT If I do this, I am going to need to know the attachment points... lol... anyone have a clue as to which attachment points strings are and as to where they go?... (I haven't yet, but I will do a search on "Attachment Points")

Right... The best way to add an attachment is through the "Damage Bonus" ability. Using the "Art - Target" field select your weapon model. Now, take the "Art - Target Attachment Point 1" field and add a string: "Hand". Then add *another* string: "Right" or "Left" depending on which hand needs the weapon. Then go a bit lower down to "Art - Target Attachments" and change the value to "1". There you go, the character should now be shown holding your weapon.

I did it by using the Sphere ability, but his way works just the same...

Or you could simply classify all swords as Antique items. Then have a trigger like...

Events:
Unit- Aqquires an item

Condition:
Item class of item being manipulated equal to antique

Actions: Set custom value of hero manipulating item to (custom value of hero manipulating value +1)
If - Custom value of hero manipulating item equal to 2

Then - Order hero aqquiring item to drop item being manipulated

Else - Do nothing

And make it so that if he drops an item it sets his custom value to -1. Voila, a simple and effective solution to this.

Nice ^_^

TaintedReality · 07-03-2005, 01:32 AM

Isn't there a much easier way to do this? Here is what I came up with.

Weapons
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
(Item-class of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Weapon
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
Or - Any (Conditions) are true
Conditions
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 2)) Equal to Weapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 3)) Equal to Weapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 4)) Equal to Weapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 5)) Equal to Weapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 6)) Equal to Weapon
Then - Actions
Hero - Drop the item from slot 1 of (Hero manipulating item)
Unit - Order (Hero manipulating item) to drop (Item being manipulated) in 1
Else - Actions

------------------------------------
and for dual wielding daggers and such..

Daggers
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
(Item-class of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
Or - Any (Conditions) are true
Conditions
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 3)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 4)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 5)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 6)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
Then - Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Item-class of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot 1)) Equal to DualWieldWeapon
Then - Actions
Hero - Drop the item from slot 2 of (Hero manipulating item)
Unit - Order (Hero manipulating item) to drop (Item being manipulated) in 2
Else - Actions
Hero - Drop the item from slot 1 of (Hero manipulating item)
Unit - Order (Hero manipulating item) to drop (Item being manipulated) in 1
Else - Actions

------------------------------------------

Shields and other items are the same as normal weapons, just use different inventory slots. And, I used variables for the weapon types, but you don't really need those. This seems like a simple way to not have to do much work while still getting a working inventory system with multiple units/heroes. It also keeps all your items nice and organized which can be useful if you need to mess around with them in other triggers.

You need to modify the hero's model, make him without a weapon.
Then you can add the weapon ability to the item.

BladeZen, do you mean to say that if a hero already has a weapon you cant attach a new item unless his model is changed? And also, practically for all other units, we can't attach anything on them unless they have free hands?

Eg. A Dryad, do we need to remove her spear before attaching?
Eg2. A Wizard (with 1 stick on left hand), if we attach a stick to left hand, it won't show up either? (but if attached to the right, it will?)

Setting "Number of dice" to -1 will cause the attack to deal 0-0 damage but still be visible. Just a tip :P
