Spellcraft Spell's orbs

[jarekpl12]

hello Everyone... can somone give me a tip how to add/increase lvl of ability from 3 the same orbs or with 2 the same? I mean how to check it in conditions...thx

 

[KaerfNomekop]

Sorry.. what?

 

[jarekpl12]

ok I explained not too good. How to check in conditions that hero has 3 items of the same type
For example

Flamestrike
Events  Unit - A unit Recives an Item
Conditions  (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to |cffFF4500Fire|r
and here i need some condition that checks number of items of type |cffFF4500Fire|r
because an Action needs 3 the same items 
Actions

 

[keychup]

a unit receives an item

set INTEGERX = 0
for each integer A from 1 to 6
-if item in slot integer A is equal to orb
-then set INTEGERX = INTEGERX +1
-else do nothing
set level of ability for triggering unit to INTEGERX

INTEGERX is a variable of type "integer"

Something like this? Or it will have some bugs?... Im wondering what gonna happend if 2 heros wear the same item around the same time.. i mean untill the trigger ends

Flamestrike
  Events  Unit - A unit Recives an item
  Conditions  (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) equal to |cffFF4500Fire|r
  Actions Set Orb = 0
For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
  Loop - Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  If - Conditions
  (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A))) equal to |cffFF4500Fire|r
  Then - Actions Set Orb = (Orb + 1)
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  If - Conditions  (Level of Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) for (Triggering unit)) equal to 0
  Then - Actions  Unit - Add Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) to (Triggering unit)
  Else - Actions  Unit - Increase level of Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) for (Triggering unit)
  Else - Actions

It works on multiple units, and even if it didn't, the possiblity of two heroes receiving such item in the EXACT SAME MILLISECOND seems too impossible.

What your trigger does right now is actually pretty pointless in adding the for loop. The reason is because you're not using the integer variable Orb.

So you want your hero to receive an ability when he has two Fire Orbs, and another ability if he has three Fire Orbs.

Use that same loop on your actions

• D
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A))) equal to Fire
        • Then - Actions
          • Set Orb = (Orb + 1)
        • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Orb is Greater than or equal to 2
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Add Flamestrike to (Triggering unit)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Orb is Greater than or equal to 3
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Add Volcano to (Triggering unit)
        • Unit - Increase level of Flamestrike for (Triggering unit)
      • Else - Actions

nono... i want to add ability (if there is no such an ability yet) or increase lvl of following ability (if there is such an ability). I have 7 kinds of orbs and every combination gives diferent ability. For example 3 Fire Orbs give Flamestrike ability or 2 Fire Orbs and 1 Earth Orb give for example Entanglin Roots

Here is my trigger to add (increase lvl of) spell with 3 DIFERENT orbs... This is easy, my problem is to do the same thing with checking if Triggering Unit has 3 the same orbs or 2 the same orbs and 1 diferent orb:

Flamestrike
    Events
        Unit - A unit Recives an item
    Conditions
        Or - Any (Conditions) are true
            Conditions
                (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) equal to |cffFF4500Fire|r
                (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) equal to |cffFFFF66Light|r
                (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) equal to |cff0000FFWater|r
    Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                ((Triggering unit) has an item of type |cffFF4500Fire|r) equal to True
                ((Triggering unit) has an item of type |cffFFFF66Light|r) equal to True
                ((Triggering unit) has an item of type |cff0000FFWater|r) equal to True
            Then - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        (Level of Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) for (Triggering unit)) equal to 0
                    Then - Actions
                        Unit - Add Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) to (Triggering unit)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cffFF4500Fire|r)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cffFFFF66Light|r)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cff0000FFWater|r)
                    Else - Actions
                        Unit - Increase level of Flamestrike (Neutral Hostile) for (Triggering unit)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cffFF4500Fire|r)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cffFFFF66Light|r)
                        Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type |cff0000FFWater|r)
            Else - Actions

 

[jarekpl12]

hmm... anyone help?

 

[keychup]

interesting. should have said so earlier.
it's definitely doable.
write down each and every orb, and spells with their corresponding orb combination.
please note that you can have only 2 abilities max if you choose to use the inventory as a reference.

 

[denmax]

nono...

I think you just said that without actually understanding what my code did, because technically it would have potentially solved your problem already :/

Copy my code, and remove the first If-Then-Else (the one with the condition - Orbs is Greater than or equal to 2), change Volcano to Flame Strike, and remove the Increase level.

y u right... I can't understeand this function: For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)

ok I'll try... thx

 

[jarekpl12]

now the trigger adds ability after i pick up 2 orbs and after i pick 3rd orb level of ability is increased to 5

Fire, Water, Earth, Storm, Energy, Light, Dark

 

[jarekpl12]

help please... Thats the only one thing i need to finish my map

 

[vypur85]

Understand denmax's trigger. The idea is there. That is how you detect multiple items. From post#7, you seemed to be quite well verse with triggers (unless, of course, the trigger was not made by you).

The idea is to calculate how many similar items you have in the hero inventory. And then decide if the unit has multiple items or not. Hence the 1 to 6 integer loop. Understand the trigger given and apply it to your map. And if there's any trigger problem, please post your most current trigger when you ask your next question (as how you did in post#7).

 

[keychup]

Sorry I haven't come online for a while. I'll look into your spells when I get home from school. It looks like an invoke-type set of triggers can take care of this. I'll let you know as soon as I get something done.

 

[jarekpl12]

this is my last progress: when i buy 1st Fire orb - Flamestrike lvl 1, then i buy 2nd Fire orb - Flamestrike lvl 5

Flamestrike

                                Else - Actions

 

[vypur85]

The pasted trigger seems a bit off. But remove the second if then else out of the integer loop. And set the integer value to 0 at the beginning of the trigger.

Set Orb = 0
For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
  Loop - Actions
    If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      If - Conditions
          (Item-type of (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Integer A))) equal to |cffFF4500Fire|r
      Then - Actions
          Set Orb = (Orb + 1)
      Else - Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        Orb equal to 3
    Then - Actions
        ......

 

[keychup]

hold on, so the idea is to pick up 1 fire orb to get 1 ability and pick up a second orb to upgrade it? i thought you had to combine 3 orbs to get a spell.

Please wait for my trigger. I can handle all the abilities.

 

[vypur85]

> so the idea is to pick up 1 fire orb to get 1 ability and pick up a second orb to upgrade it?
Refer to the trigger in post#7. Combined orbs give either the ability or level up. If you 5 different kind of orbs, there are about 12 different combinations, if I'm correct.

 

[keychup]

Unfortunately you will not be able to use my trigger to upgrade your spells. You cannot obtain, for example, Flamestrike without 3 flame orbs. If you do have Flamestrike, picking up another orb will only determine the second ability, not upgrade the first. If you want an ability to be upgraded, however, you can implement the Upgrades in the object editor and research the ability directly.
These are the variables you'll be needing:

HASHTABLE: Hashtable Type, No Arrays
ABILITY []: Ability Type, 82 Arrays
ORB1: Integer Type, No Arrays
ORB2: Integer Type No Arrays

First you need to create a hashtable then you need to store all the abilities in ABILITY []

Trigger 1:

Elapsed Game Time is 0 seconds
Conditions

Set HASHTABLE = Last Created Hashtable
Set ABILITY [3] = Flamestrike
