linkmaster23	This is taunting me like crazy!! How do you do it?? I have tried to remove the item(works) then how do I put it back in the slow originally was?? Also, this is for a RPG based systen, when you get enough kills, your spell upgrades, but that would take tons of triggers and if/then/elses, you someone out there please teach me a work around this pain?? Thanks for all your help.

Some more details would be helpful....

If you're simply adding, removing items: use Hero - Create Item For Hero and Hero - Drop Item From Hero [then Remove it, if need be] (if you haven't the items set to variables, then use Item Carried by Hero of Type, which will select the first item of the specified item-type).

If you need to keep track of what slot the item is in then use a Foor loop from 1 to 6 and check the slot for the item, then remove it and add the new one into the same index.

Transcendence	He means he wants to remove the item, and then for a new item to appear in the same slot as the old one was in.

weaaddar	If you check out DT4a or my backpack demo you'll see I do this "trick". I'll give you a hint a timer of zero.

Okay, that last post was completely pointless. And since my suggestion doesn't seem to be enough, let me reiterate:

Code:

For Integer A from 1 to 6
  Loop - Actions
    If-Then-Else Thingy-ma-bobber
      Conditions:
        Item-Type of (Item in Inventory Slot (Integer A)) is equal to TypeOfItemToUpgrade
      Actions:
        Set OldItem = Item in Inventory Slot (Integer A)
         Drop OldItem
         Remove OldItem
         Create NewItem in Invetory Slot (Integer A) for UnitThatLeveled
          Skip Remaining Actions

NewItem is Item
UnitThatLeveled is Unit
