Yeah no problem. What game are you working on?

Ok well im not sure about that but you could use a trigger that give the target unit a buff that makes the effect you want just make a if/then and just have it check the target unit.

Really not sure what you want but you could just add health regeneration to unit. With a buff that starts at the end of the healing process and goes away after a time or just add it to the unit.

Im not sure what happened. But I made a hero out of campaign reaper. I made one change adding a delay to the "move out" on the ability however last night when testing the game if a player makes the reaper climb up/down a cliff if the player clicks somewhere mid jump the reaper will teleport to that location. I really dont think I did anything. Any ideas?

Ok in detail.

I have heroes on two teams and they buy their weapons through shops. The heroes do not have weapons to start with. So they purchase the weapons at the shops that are neutral. There are a total of 5 tiers for each weapon type.

Currently how the shop works is it is owned by neural and I have shared control ability on it. The weapons are trained units with items attached to them, and the items have the behavior of weapons. Thus the inventory will equip the item and the weapon will be added to the hero.

What I want to do is make it to were you can exchange these weapons for the next tier at a cost instead of having to sell your old one and by the next tier.

I guess the problem is is that I made a bunch of items instead of making a bunch of items that have buffs. Because right now you need to sell your old item in order to get the next tier item I was hoping for a way to swap those two items out. Basically incorporating the old item into the cost. But either way right now the game mechanics are you have a bunch of items that you can buy from shops, which are units that are trained and equip as items, and you can drop and sell these items. Also I have to admit I don't really understand how to use validators.

So does this buff also change the range of the search effect on the weapon. Maybe that is the problem.

You can pick the weapon for your hero. So you can changed the weapon and have more weapons. Right now when you have the item in the inventory it adds the weapon buff to the unit. So i need to make a buff that removes the weapon and changes it? However if i do that the old item will still be there right?

No when i used morphing with the shop the shop messed up and i lost control

I have an inventory system I thought you had to have items in order to use the inventory system. I must have missed understood how it works. You have a unit to tain the unit, the unit has the item and the item has the buff of the weapon. And ill try your buff idea. Ps. I tried morphing the unit to the next level unit that has the new item.

Have you tried playing the attack sound in the editor and seeing if it says attack or if it says yes could be nothing wrong with what your data is simply that the sounds are mixed up.

What I would do if I would have the ability in one section and then right below it I would have the ability research below it and you can level up the research. Upgrade the first ability. Exp. Say you have a armored ability. Right below it have armored upgrade that goes to level 6 (that is the research ability) then in the upgrade tab make 6 upgrades for the 1st ability. Not sure if you want it like that.

Bumb. Where is DrSuperEvil he/she is a genius of the editor I'm sure he/she knows.

I feel silly asking this. I should know but I cannot figure it out. I have a weapons system like desert tank battles and right now when a player wants to upgrade their weapons they have to sell the old one to the store and by the next tier. I want to add an upgrade to next tier button. A ability that my shop has to remove the old weapon and replace with next tier. I tried morphing the unit item, tried triggers that remove items, and I looked for a requirement or a cost but couldn't figure it out. Looked all over the forums and couldn't find anything. Please and thank you. Also try out my 1st map Sack Battles I am going to be working on it for a long time.

I can make my unit morph into the unit i want it to however i want a "shop" to activate this ability. I feel like i need to set a requirement and use the upgrade system however i cant find info on how to do that.

I think i have a working trigger for it 1st ill show 2 other triggers to give a idea what is going on. Then i will show my new trigger that seems to be working however i am worried something else could set it off.
