[Frozen Solid]

I'm creating a map that you can buy a axe and I'm wanting to lnow how to create a trigger when you pick up the axe you get the harvest lumber ability and when you drop it the ability is removed can someone help me.

Well you pretty much explained it to yourself didnt you?

Events
Unit adquires an item
Condtion
Item type equal to axe
Actions
Add Harvest (Ghouls Lumber) to triggering unit

I'm also wanting to know when you drop the axe the ability goes away now how do you create a trigger that does that?

Simply edit the provided Trigger by Dirac:

Gain Skill:

Events
Unit adquires an item
Condtion
Item type equal to axe
Actions
Add Harvest (Ghouls Lumber) to triggering unit

Loose Skill:

Events
Unit looses an item
Condtion
Item type equal to axe
Actions
Remove Harvest (Ghouls Lumber) from triggering unit

P.S: The functions might be spelled different, this is just a scratch.

I tried your answer and the picking up ability works but the dropping one doesn't ;(

For picking up:

• Acquire
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Axe
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Harvest (Ghouls Lumber) to (Triggering unit)

For dropping:

• Drop
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Loses an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Axe
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove Harvest (Ghouls Lumber) from (Triggering unit)

I'm not sure, but doesn't adding the ability to the item Axe work?
