CAn a hero build tower?

[puppetmaster]

Can i ask? Can a hero build tower? Cause i wanna make a skill with 10 levels for build towers!
Is tht possible?

 

[Nherwyziant]

Yes

 

[Necrach]

Enable the hero to build towers like a normal worker. Then make a hero skill with those 10 levels, and enable upgrades (through triggers) as requirements or as upgrades for the towers when the hero picks levels in that skill (which should be passive)

There is, of course, ways of triggering a skill to be used as a build structure command without using that icon with a hammer to reveal structures enabled to construct. One way is to use Channel as a base skill, create an invisible dummy worker to construct the building and then trigger off the channeling ability when the structure is complete/canceled.

erk. its so confusing... have a demo map?

 

[Nherwyziant]

Here

Just give the hero the repair ability and add list the structures you wan't to build

If I understand you correctly, you want to make a hero ability that builds a tower? And if you level it up you build a stronger tower?

If that's so, you can base the abillity on "Build tiny farm" (an item ability)
Change it into an hero ability, add levels and the structures it builds for the levels.
There is a downside to it: it doesn't cost gold if you use the ability, it only uses mana. But you can trigger it so it substracts gold whenever you use the ability.

Awww, lovely. No trigger needed?
Then it would be easy for newbies like me =)
BUT I WANT THE SKILL TO BUILD ONLY 1 tower .
ONCE THE TOWER DESTROYed.... the skill is available again.

 

[envenger]

u need to trigger it

once the tower in complete remove the old spell add a new spell with same name and very high mana cost(hero cannot reach) then when the tower breaks remove the new spell and add the old spell

there might be easier solution than this which i dont know

After some experimenting with triggers I came up with these triggers:

• Build
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Build Tiny Farm
  • Actions
    • Player - Disable Build Tiny Farm for Player 1 (Red)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type Farm) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set BuildedTower[1] = (Picked unit)

This trigger disables the "Build tiny farm" abillity and sets the BuildedTower variable as the farm.

• Destroy
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Dying unit) Equal to BuildedTower[1]
  • Actions
    • Player - Enable Build Tiny Farm for Player 1 (Red)

This enables the abillity again if the farm (BuildedTower) is destroyed.

Note: this only works for player 1.

Can i know the variable for BuildedTower? the variable is under 'Interger' or what?

Lets say, got 2 players using this hero... the trigger i set for all players?
Player 1-8?

"Set BuildedTower[1] = (Picked unit)" is a unit variable with an array - your setting it equal to "picked unit", only units can be set equal to units

Can it be use?

 

[puppetmaster]

BUMP.
PLease help me with this trigger. It isnt right.

 

[tom_mai78101]

Use (Integer - Player number of (Triggering Player)) for the array.

And check to see if the dying unit belongs to the triggering player. (Owner of dying unit = Player index (Player number of (Triggering player)))

Use the "If...then...else" logic if you needed to.
