Limiting 1 hero-type for ALL players

[luckbox]

Does anyone know how to make it so its Limiting 1 hero-type for ALL players
not simplying using the -pick all player and limit hero for picked player trigger (i have that atm)

i want it so - similar to Dota,
where if you train a hero from ur alter (or hire from tavern) you are the only player with that hero, and u can have multiple heros types.

thanks.

I have actually been trying to figure this out myself to no avail. +rep to anyone who can help us out.

Go to advance, gameplay constants.

In the field, Techtree - Dependancy Equivalents - Hero.

Remove all units from that field, and then add ALL of the heroes you have in your map to it.

• Events
  • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.1 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each integer A - 1 to 12 - do actions:
      • Player - Limit training of Heroes to 1 for Player(Integer A)

i have

i ahve a random hero arrary in my map and when i pick option all random will this affect it?

 

[Komaqtion]

Nope ... But you can use this:

• Limit Heroes
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • (Number of units in (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) matching (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True))) Equal to 2
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game

Haven't tested though :S

 

[windale5]

ok

i have all random mode and 12 people automatically get 1 hero each will this affect it also what happens if u just keep randoming until u run out of heroes. do i also have to use the gamplay constatnt of limiting heroes or is that for taverns only.

 

[luckbox]

Hellohi, that its just limiting each player to 1 hero ..
and Komaquin that trigger doesnt look like it will work in the way i need it to..

thanks for trying anyways, ill keep looking

 

[LordXavier]

are you using a neutral building for picking heroes?

 

[luckbox]

both, using alters to train and the tavern

 

[SkateuUp]

You have to add all heroes as variables to another variable and so forth its complicated if you are going for a DoTA like -ar feel. i suggest lookin at the DoTA Template by Acehart it has that mode in it.

 

[LordXavier]

you could try this. Temp_Ugroup is a unit group variable and Temp_Pgroup is a player group variable.

• Limiting Heroes
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Sells a unit
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • ((Sold Unit) is A Hero) equal to True
    • ((Trained Unit) is A Hero) equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Ugroup = (Units in (Playable map area))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Temp_Ugroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Neutral Building - Remove (Unit-type of (Sold Unit)) from all marketplaces
    • Custom Script: call DestroyGroup (udg_Temp_Ugroup)
    • Set Temp_Pgroup = (All players)
    • Player Group - Pick every player in Temp_Pgroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Player - Make (Unit-type of (Trained unit) Unavailable for training/construction by (Picked Player)
    • Custom Script: call DestroyForce (udg_Temp_Pgroup)

A unit sells a unit
Unit sold is hero = to true
remove sold unit from triggering unit

Important: make sure your Tavern has the "Sell Units" ability. If the above trigger still does not work, you may have to add the units via trigger to the Tavern during Map Initialization using "Add UnitType to MarketPlace".

Man, what's with everyone posting super long and complicated triggers :S... and why does everyone have red rep?

With what you did, the remove sold unit from triggering unit, all that does is remove the hero, not prevent it from being sold/trained, therefore wasting the money of whoever bought it.
my trigger i posted wont work unless the buildings that sell heroes have the "Sell Unit" ability, like Lightstalker said. My rep is red cuz of a double post a long time ago :banghead:

 

[luckbox]

Thx lord, ill try that , and ill see what i come up with

on another notE: i just re read my original post, i shouldnt have mentioned dota, i meant 'similar' as in 1 hero-type her player. not the game play or anything like it.
basically, its melee type game with a huge amount of heros to choose from and some races can choose 3 while others can choose 6.. andi want only 1 hero type during the game. eg: not having 5 pally's from 5 different players

thanks

No. The Hero cannot be trained/sold if it is removed from the building that sells it. :nuts:

oh i understand what you meant, but the way you showed it it didn't make any sense to me

I find one problem with that one, there's a chance that multiple players will get the same hero, if you want to put in an All Random mode, try using SD_Ryoko's, it's with the attachments at the bottom of this. it's Ryoko Hero Tavern.w3x, it makes sure that when you do All Random it makes it so the hero cannot be randomed again, if you use and need help changing it to your map i wouldn't mind changing it for you

he uses taverns

I don't use taverns. That what i want to avoid due to people not buying a hero and using the gold to make it unfair for other players. Yes i know there are multiple instances of the same hero. I need them to spawn at once though.
