[Solved] Item Shop?

This may sound abit newbieish but what's the ability type that allows units to sell items? (Like Train for training units and Research for learning upgrades)

I've got a feeling it's the Train ability but i would like to make sure. Also, how do you set it so that the Itemshop sells the item directly to the purchasing unit instead of dropping it on the ground?


EDIT: I solved the problem already. Thanks anyway.

Lol ok. Basically itemshop just needs two abilities: Interact and Train. The only problem with this now is that i can't stop the itemshop from selling items when the buying unit has a full inventory. =/

Ok so we just have to name them interact and train and it will work? :nuts:

If you don't share your solution at least I can't help you, because I've lost my crystal ball just a few days ago. You could for example work with triggers and make every "buy that" button a dummy ability that just does it's job when you have the money and space in your inventory.

But plz still share your solution.

Nono i meant the ability type. When you create a brand new ability in the data editor you can set the TYPE of ability it is. I'm just saying it needs two different abilities, one with the Interact type and the other is a Train type.

maybe people might be wondering how to create the interact and train ability. I was just being sarcastic because you havent answered that question at all.
I have yet no chance in helping you either, unless I know how you've done it.

Lol. In case you didn't know i've already solved the problem, unless you're refering to my current problem of being unable to stop the shop from selling items to a unit with a full inventory.

And i've already explained it to the best i can. It's basically what it is, create a Interact ability and a Train ability and give them to the Itemshop unit. I never mentioned anything about NAMING them "Interact" and "Train". If you don't understand what i'm saying it just means you haven't explored the editor enough and would have been in no position to help me anyway. No offense intended.

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
