Help Adding Weapon System to Map

[lllidan]

Hey all. Currently I am working on a custom hero arena. I have a large weapon system with lots of recipes on paper . All I need to do is add it to the map and set a suitable price. But it would take some time so my question is this: would anyone like to help me input the weapon system into the map and set suitable gold prices?

It's not really urgent but help would be nice. If no one wants to I can always do it myself. If you are interested post a reply. If ur the right man for the job i'll PM you the datasheet covering the weapon system.

Many thanks

The gold prices part is totally your thing, as it deals with map balance (and when outside people change map balance, you can have balance splits that dont make any sense). As for implementing a system, not totally sure but triggers should look a bit like this:

icedaggerrecipe
Events
Unit - A unit Acquires an item
Conditions
(Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to icedaggerrecipe
((Buying unit) has an item of type Dagger of +1) Equal to True
((Buying unit) has an item of type Orb of Frost) Equal to True
Actions
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type Dagger of +1)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type Orb of Frost)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type icedaggerrecipe)
Hero - Create UBERICEDAGGER and give it to (Buying unit)

no you misunderstood me. I am perfectly capable of doing it myself. It'js just that there are 150+ weapons/armor.

Well I would surely help if I wasnt such a lazy bastard ^^.

A small formula I have found for setting prices:
If you got stuff that goes to +, like
Claws of Attack +3; Claws of Attack +6; Claws of Attack +9;
then try something like
First item- get a price that you think should be suitable;
Second item- increase the price by 120 percent.

And so on. Why? Well, so that carrying two "Claws of Attack +3" would be cheaper than carrying 1 "Claws of Attack +6". But it Would save a slot.
