Changing Primary Atrribute

[Avaleirra]

Hi I was wondering if it is possible to change the primary attribute of a hero? It would probably be custom script but if it is possible that would be great.

Thanks

yes, in the object editor, there should be an option to do so about 3/4s the way down.

You could simulate it by making a unit jsut like it, then replacing it with the same items.

The problem is that I am using chaos to change the hero and I want the new unit to have a different primary attribute.

 

[jig7c]

just give the new hero a different attribute in the object editor


if not:

• unselect the hero
  • replace the new hero with different attribute hero after (duration of transformation + .01) seconds
  • select the hero for triggering player!!

/facepalm

I'm using chaos which stores all of the former unit's data. I have already tried the OE stuff. That's why I am asking .

And I don't think that action exists.

Perhaps you should try another morphing ability? Like Druid Bear Form and then removing that ability from the unit

 

[Avaleirra]

Does Druid bear form do the following things?

1) keep same items
2) replace the old unit with a new unit that has a different primary attribute
3) keep the same experience
4) keep the same abilities at the same level which they were at

1) Think so 80% sure
2) Im sure it can be done
3) Yes? 50% sure
4) Im not sure on this because ive only used it on units. But i would say yes.

 

[Avaleirra]

I hope your right because if I implement this into my 36 triggers and they dont work I'm going to bust a nut. If it does work though then rep to both of you.

 

[HeX.16]

Test it with bear form before maybe?

 

[SwedishChef]

You could just trigger it maybe?

 

[Avaleirra]

@Hex.16
I will

@SwedishChef
I did before. I couldn't get the abilities to be the same level so I didn't use that method.

 

[HeX.16]

Avaleirra if it doesnt keep the abilties the same level check this thread.
HERE

 

[Avaleirra]

It's not the cooldown I'm worried about. It's the fact that if I trigger it than the player has to relearn all of his abilities again.


Edit: nvm

 

[HeX.16]

Well in that thread he says how to set the level by giving some skill points and forcing the hero to learn the spell.

 

[Carnerox]

Btw, all morph spells keep items.

 

[Avaleirra]

Didn't work. The hero still kept his old primary attribute

 

[jig7c]

my idea

create 2 heroes, one hero with X attribute, and other with Y attribute, keep everything else the same...
Give both heroes the same abilities

• Chaos
  • Events
    • A unit starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • Ability being cast equal to Chaos
  • Actions
    • Unit - Unselect (Triggering Unit)
    • Wait 1.00 seconds
    • Unit - Replace (Triggering Unit) with (Unit Y) //different hero with different primary attribute
    • Unit - Select (Last Created Unit) for (Owner of (Triggering Unit))
    • Unit - Set the level of Ability1 for (Last Created Unit) to Level of Ability1 for (Triggering Unit)
    • Unit - Set the level of Ability2 for (Last Created Unit) to Level of Ability2 for (Triggering Unit)
    • Unit - Set the level of Ability3 for (Last Created Unit) to Level of Ability3 for (Triggering Unit)
    • Unit - Set the level of Ability4 for (Last Created Unit) to Level of Ability4 for (Triggering Unit)
