Hello people!

Ive started a new RPG Project just to make the time flow and ive got one problem and

It's that i want diffrent classes to have diffrent weapons/armor

Example

A Rouge picks up a bow
It should drop and Say "You can't wield bows"
or if a Archer trys to pick up a sword
It should drop the item and say "You can't wield swords!"

You need to assign a "weapon-type" to each item.

I.E. Assign "Bow" to any bow weapon and when a unit acquires a weapon, do a check on its type and the unit's type. If they're incompatible, drop it and display the message.

I dont realy understand how you mean. You mean by using Item-type? Like Artifact and stuffs?
----
Can i do this by trigger , if i set them as Variables?

No, not Item-type. It's a variable and you'd have to do this by trigger.

Something you could do is set the item's user data to an integer and use that.

I.E. 0 can mean Bow, 1 can mean Sword, 2 can mean Dagger, 3 can mean staff etc etc.

Alright Thanks alot!

EDIT:Something is wrong here.. the triggers dosnt even start when i test them.

Trigger:
  • test Copy
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to bow test
        • Then - Actions
          • Item - Set the custom value of (Item being manipulated) to 1
        • Else - Actions





Trigger:
  • test
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Hero manipulating item)) Equal to Spearman
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Custom value of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to 1
        • Then - Actions
          • Hero - Drop (Item being manipulated) from (Hero manipulating item)
          • Quest - Display to (Player group((Owner of (Hero manipulating item)))) the Warning message: |cffff0000You can n...

You can use custom values on classes too. When someone picks an item, it checks his custom values and then drops the weapons or equips it.
Lets say 1 is for yes 0 is for no.
Our code is Weapons:sword|dagger|bow|staff|shield (Armors):heavy|light|robe
Then a warrior class has the custom value of 10001100. So he can take a sword, a shield and a heavy armor.
To check it, you set the custom values of item types to, 0 for sword, 1 for dagger, 2 for bow, 3 for staff, 4 for shield, 5/6/7 for heavy/light/robe armor. If is 1 he can equip it if its 0 the item is dropped again. Don't forget to convert the custom value into string to check the positions. You can also add a second number to items that identifies the positioning in inventory.

NoobImbaPro, your method will fail if the first digit is 0.

hasslarn, try putting some messages to see if they even fire when a unit picks up an item.

Yes and this code worked

Trigger:
  • * test Copy
    • o Events
      • + Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    • o Conditions
    • o Actions
      • + If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • # If - Conditions
          • * (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to bow test
        • # Then - Actions
          • * Item - Set the custom value of (Item being manipulated) to 1
        • # Else - Actions


but the other didnt

No, it would fail if you have an integer with the first digit (left most digit) as a zero because integers truncate leading zeros.

hasslarn, how far does the second trigger get.

I suppose you could have a "2" in front to retain the zeros.

    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
