Anyone have any idea how to...?

[[S]hifty]

Ok, I gave up on my dialogues, they just weren't working and no one knew how to help me.

But now onto a new problem.

How do i make when someone purchases (Tom of agility) Increase there ATTAcK SPEED , by .02? Not the agility itself, that gives bonus to defense also, just the players attack speed.

This was done in Hero Craft 2 Lite.

If anyone knows how plz tell me.

I know it has something ot do with, A player Aquires Item - Item iquivalant too Tome of agility, Then i don't know what to do here...

I also want ot know, How do i make it, so when ap lyer aquires a "Tome of Power" It increase there attack damage by 1. I knwo this is done via trigger also, but i don't know how to bind Attack damage, to the Tome, do i need variables? i tried.. but its so confusing, i Tried attaching like, Tome of Power to ability, but theres no damage +1 ability.

All these stats are being added to a hero.

I also want to make it so when someone purchases a Tome of knowledge they gain 25 mana, and .25 mana regeneration rate, i know this is all equivalant to the other stuff, so if anyone cfan figure out how to do any of these, im pretty sure i can just turn it around to do the rest.

Again this was all done in hero craft 2 lite, it really helps a player custimize there hero. And thats whta i want ot allow, Full custimization of a hero.

Ok thanks for any help

The basic idea is to make custom abilities based on Item Damage Bonus, Item Attack Speed Bonus, etc. and give these abilities to the unit via triggers. The complicated part is a unit can't have the same ability twice. So the next idea is to say, make one item damage bonus that's +1, one that's +2, one that's +4, one that's +8, and so on, doubling. With the proper triggers you can then make the bonus anything you like.

Hmm could you xplain that in more detail, i don't understand how i could tie this all together, or even yet double damage? I don't want that anyway, just everytime a tome of attack is bought, give +1 damage to the hero.

Here's one analogy I've seen. The problem is when you add these abilities to add damage, you can't add the same one twice (so you can't just keep adding the same ability that adds +1). Picture it like a lot of lights. One is 1-watt, one is 2-watt, one is 4-watt, one is 8-watt, one is 16-watt, etc. If you want a 1-watt light (+1 damage), you turn on the 1-watt light. If you want a 2-watt light (+2 damage), you turn on the 2-watt light. If you want a 3-watt light, you turn on the 1- and 2-watt lights. If you want a 4-watt light, you turn on the 4-watt light. 5-watt, turn on 1- and 4-watt. 6-watt, turn on 2- and 4-watt, etc.

Complex, isn't it? The whole thing is complicated.

So if hte player has used a tomb of attack a total of 100 times, i need to have an item basicaly of Attack +100? I can't just have 1 and add it on each tiem?

Thtas gonna be rediculously long... what if they just go all out damage and have +200 tome of atttacks bought, does that mean i need to make 200+ attack items? oh boy..

What you can do is this:

Under the "Advanced" menu in the World Editor, click "Gameplay Constants". Resize the window that comes up to be real tall, and then scroll down untill you find the "Hero Attributes" section. There you can modify most of what you said.

You'll have to use triggers anyway. Even if you add +1 to the tome, it won't stick around.

And, no, none of these abilities are actually attached to items. They're just floating around alone; they'll be added to your unit using triggers.

So, no, you don't need a +100 ability. You just need a trigger that will know enough to use the +64, +32, and +4 abilities.

Hmm i wish you could xplaint io me how that would wrk with the trigger.

Maybe give me an example?

I did something like that but I gave it to a hero and when he learnt it, it disappeared and only added the imported wings that I added on to it, but maybe it just added in the +50 atk to the whole atk.

If value greater than or equal to 64 then give +64 to Hero and set value = value - 64
If value greater than or equal to 32 then give +32 to Hero and set value = value - 32
If value greater than or equal to 16 then give +16 to Hero and set value = value - 16
If value greater than or equal to 8 then give +8 to Hero and set value = value - 8
If value greater than or equal to 4 then give +4 to Hero and set value = value - 4
If value greater than or equal to 2 then give +2 to Hero and set value = value - 2
If value greater than or equal to 1 then give +1 to Hero and set value = value - 1


Looks complicated? Well, that's because it is.
But, let's say your Hero is at +99 and buys a +1 item.
He's supposed to, then, be +100.
Well, you remove all the +X abilities, then run through that list with value = 100.
Once done, your Hero got the +64, the +32 and the +4 abilities.
Means he has +100 now.

Read my POST!!! This meathod doesn't involve hundreds of abilitys OR repeating triggers!!!

Under the "Advanced" menu in the World Editor, click "Gameplay Constants". Resize the window that comes up to be real tall, and then scroll down untill you find the "Hero Attributes" section. There you can modify most of what you said.

What if he wants regular agility gained via levels to have standard benefits, but tomes only increase attack speed? And so on.
