Item requires a hero level

[meehael]

Hi all,

I've been doing some search on the forum, but I couldn't find anything like this. I'd like to make that items require a specific level of a hero to use it. For ex., Potion of Greater Healing requires the hero to be at least level 5 to be able to use it. Or Boots of Quel'Thalas (+6 Agility) requires level 5.

I solved the part where charged/usable items are involved (like potions - I just check for the ability being cast if it is equal to the item ability, check the level; if lvl<5 => stop the unit), but I cannot solve the part where items are permanent and give permanent bonus as long as they are in the inventory, like the Boots.

And I'd like not to drop the item if it doesn't meet the level requirements. Just be inactive. Any idea is welcome!

Thanks,
Regards!

hey you should donwload WE unlimiteda nd there in triggers you can change the units atributes like movement speed, attack damage, armor atd... you can changew all common atributes there and the trigger should look :

events
-a (hero1) acquires an item
condition
action
-if then else multiple functions
-conditions
-item being manipulated is equal to (itemXY)
-actions
-increase damage of (hero1) by 25
-increase armor of (hero1) by 5
-else actions
-do nothing


and a drop trigger should be this:


events
-(hero1) drops an item
-(hero1) sells an item
conditions
actions
-if then else multiple functions
-conditions
-item being manipulated is equal to (itemXY)
-actions
-decrease damage of (hero1) by 25
-decrease armor of (hero1) by 5
-else actions
do nothing



ok and thats all i think it could work

You can create a 'dummy' item of the same permanent item (these items are the same as the items themselves, but have no stat bonuses whatsoever), do that it would be like inactive. When a Hero takes them when he's less than lvl. 5, then make a trigger that substitutes the item to the dummy item. But when the hero is lvl. 5 onwards, and when the dummy item is still in his inventory, then find a way to remove the dummy item he's holding and replace it with the original item.

This sounds difficult though, yet it is a good solution.

EDIT: Some1 posted already but I started typing at 5:29. Whether mine or his you can accept.

well, i think you have got to create a dummy copy of each permanent item which does nothing, then check if when the hero aquires an item if he got the right level, if not replace the aquired item with the useless copy, when he drops the copy replace it again with the real item.
