A Unique Weapons System

I might. Why do you ask?

So we could talk a little more, exchange ideas, stuff like that... :)

[email protected] is mine, add me if you'd like...

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 ^_^

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.

Hi! guys , This trigger works.

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
