No multiple items

Hi
I see that it some maps(mostly rpgs), when you pick an item like: Amour or a weapon,
and if you already have a weapon or an armour with you you drop the item back...
I'd like to know how to do that plz
Example: Item system with D3fi4anc3

You can do it like this:

Make a class of an item (Artifact, Purchasable, etc.) to say, WEAPON, and then check when a unit picks up an item. If they already have the same item class (Artifact, etc.) then drop the item.

yes thats the easy way, but if you want to have many types of items..
like ring, potion, sword, armor, boots, leggings, helm, necklace, bracelets, like a lot more than there are actual item classifications, then you can use a more complicated trigger

variable: Has_Ring (type boolean)

list events:

• unit picks up item of type(ring1)
• unit picks up item of type(ring2)
• etc..

and actions:

• if Has_Ring equal to False
  • then set Has_Ring to True
  • else drop item being manipulated

and you can do one of those for every type of item, you will also need a trigger with the dropping events to set the Has_Ring variable to False when the unit drops a ring..don't ask why i didn't use trigger tags for this post.

a good tutorial

seems like a really complicated way of doing it, but it'd work just fine.
