Item restrictions

[Tawnttoo]

Could someone tell me why does this not work?

• Item Restriction
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Owner of (Target item of issued order)) Not equal to (Owner of (Triggering unit))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Stop

when this does:

• Item Restriction
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Player number of (Owner of (Item being manipulated))) Not equal to (Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))
  • Actions
    • Hero - Drop (Item being manipulated) from (Triggering unit)

It would be nice to get the first trigger to work, because that way I could prevent other players from destroying items that don't belong to them. Also, the latter trigger enables players to slowly move the item away from its original location, where the first one prevents that, too.

For the first trigger, is because you need to put pause then unpause the unit then order it to stop
Or else they will take first then be ordered to stop

Thank you very much for your fast reply, and the solution!

Ha! Real cute idea. Permission to use it (with credits)!

why do you need permission to use such a simple thing?

 

[rotten]

Just being polite. Is that bad? :nuts:

Anyway, it'd be funny to make only certain items unpickable for non-owners, and from them, some items will cause nasty consequences when this is attempted.

Btw DuelPlayer, you can use Triggering Player instead of Owner of Triggering unit....they both end up in the same thing.

@rotten: yes you can definitely use it, whether you give credits or not is your choice. Generally something so simple is taken as common knowledge.

Yet I needed help with it
