trigger to affect harvest

[alt bringer]

need help making event/condition to..

trying to make unit not affected by gold mine 1 unit capacity

im trying to make it so when specific unit mines gold, the mine temporary
gains 1 capacity

it should work like this
said unit uses harvest on gold mine
=mine gains gold mine ability (custom)
harvest ends (unit exits) =mine loses gold mine ability (custom)

i think mining looks like this
unit activates harvest enters mine harvest ends unit exits mine
unit activates return (gos to drop point) = you get gold

anyone think they can help me out?

I don't think it's possible to increase the capacity of a gold mine. At least, I've not heard of anything like that being done, and from my experience, it seems highly unlikely.

 

[alt bringer]

theres a function that look like

Data- mining capacity 1
on the "ability" that alows you to get gold from it

it allows for more than one unit to enter the mine
knowing that im sure theres a way but cant figure out the nessary triger(s) to make it
so only a specific unit can enter while mine is in use

... perhaps somthing like a
ability only works if target is x
triger, there somthing like that?

I think the biggest problem here is that it is difficult to detect when someone enters a gold mine. Assuming you could detect that, however, changing out abilities could very well cause some unintended side-effects.

well i tried many things that logicaly seem like it would work
(though missing what ever it is that makes it work)

in the meantime ill compensate by simply altering the gold carried amount

hope someone else (more experianced) gives this a shot though
hmm i wonder (starting new thread)

The only way i see is to create a new gather ability and change the gold harvested from 10 to the number you wish and then using a trigger to switch the abilities (the normal one, with the upgraded one)
