Trigger to combine 3 towers into 1?

[CixxyZ]

I'm trying to make something so that when you select 3 towers a combine button shows up; it disappears if you deselect them. On a new trigger, when you click combine, it checks if you have selected the right towers to combine with, if you have it'll combine them into a new tower.

I'm stuck so +rep to anyone who can solve this! Thanks.

Make a variable called Selected_Towers
Unit type array
Make a variable called Combo
Bool Array

Next make a trigger for each of your combinations

• Combination
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Selected_Towers[1]
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Selected_Towers[2]
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Selected_Towers[3]
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Combine to (Triggering unit)
    • Set Combo(1) equal to true

Next make a trigger to check if the ability is clicked.
And if Combo(1) is true then remove the three towers and add the new tower in its place

There is no triggering unit in the trigger above, just a triggering player. Also, the arrays will have to be set somewhere, in which case you could just use the actual unit without putting it in an array.

Wish that would have worked but it didn't, like lightstalker pointed out. I need a way to combine like in poker td , gem td.

bump, anyone pleasE?

still stuck . .. difficult problem for me

 

[Bloodcount]

use if/then/else to put the right combo

for example
if selected towers are fire fire and water then give combo "steam"

Hope it helps.

k i will try to help let's see ..

• tower
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Number of units in (Units currently selected by Player 1 (Red))) Equal to 3
      • Then - Actions
        • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads sssssssssss above Footman 0087 <gen> with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
        • Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for (All players)
      • Else - Actions

but this will work only if all the towers are the same and i just add the text to see if it works
[edit] the conditions are pointless just use one

 

[CixxyZ]

yeah it doesn't exactly solve the problem does it? It's kinda hard since the GUI functions don't really have the appropriate conditions... Maybe possible with vJASS?

Still stuck..

i have an spell combination map ... were you need to have an element buff and only some of the heros can wear them .. and when you have 2 units ... one fire and one air ... if the fire unit cast an spell then the air will cast an spell ... same here [when an spell is used .. then it will search in range for posible combination ... ] if you whant i can make an quik map with the trigger and all is need to combine 2 towers maybe you can put something to chose what comb to make ... just answer me if you whant ...
