hello all,

I have an item, where one of its ingredient items require 2 of them. Like its needs 2 Orb of Brutality. How does the trigger go?

Trigger:
  • Merge Valgus Viligance
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    • Conditions
      • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Ring of Health) Equal to True
    • <span style="color: red"> ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Orb of Brutility) Equal to True
      • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Orb of Brutility) Equal to True</span>
      • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Potion of Endurance) Equal to True
      • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Arcane Shield) Equal to True
      • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Valgus Vigilance Reciept) Equal to True
      • Actions
        • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Ring of Health)
    • <span style="color: Red"> Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Orb of Brutility)
      • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Orb of Brutility)
    • </span> Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Potion of Endurance)
      • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Arcane Shield)
      • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) of type Valgus Vigilance Reciept)
      • Hero - Create Valgus Vigilance and give it to (Triggering unit)
      • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Triggering unit) using Abilities\Spells\Human\Resurrect\ResurrectTarget.mdl
      • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)


The triger show that the item requires 2 Orb of Brutality. However the Hero receives the item even if he buys only 1 Orb. How do I check if the Hero has 2 Orbs?

When the unit acquires one of the items, set the custom value of it to one. Then if another is acquired use and If/Then check to set the custom value to two. Then when running the recipe trigger, check to see if the the orb has a custom value of two.

How exactly do I do that. How do I check if the Hero already has Orb of Brutality pick another one?

hmm.. let me post a trigger of mine:

Trigger:
  • TEMPLATE MULTI
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    • Conditions
      • Multiple ConditionsAnd - All (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • ((Triggering unit) has an item of type Sobi Mask) Equal to (==) True
    • Actions
      • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            • If - Conditions
              • (Item-type of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot (Integer A))) Equal to (==) Sobi Mask
            • Then - Actions
              • Set MultipleItemsCheck = (MultipleItemsCheck + 1)
            • Else - Actions
      • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • MultipleItemsCheck Equal to (==) 2
        • Then - Actions
          • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Sobi Mask)
          • Item - Remove (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) of type Sobi Mask)
          • Hero - Create Ironwood Shaft and give it to (Hero manipulating item)
          • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Hero manipulating item) using Abilities\Spells\Items\AIem\AIemTarget.mdl
          • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        • Else - Actions
      • Set MultipleItemsCheck = 0


basically, here's the idea:
you loop through the inventory slots for an item, increasing a counter for each item found equal. if the counter registers 2 or more of the same item, the result is produced.

Hello. Is this MUI?

ok I tested it out and the MultipleItemsCheck variable does not mess up when there are multiple units acquiring the items.

Thanks :)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    Heard Houston got hit pretty bad by storms last night. Hope all is well with TH.
