Creating an item that can be used only in Battlegrounds

[mybitch 9]

How to make an item in database that can only be used in battlegrounds? Thanks!

For usable items you can use a map zone restriction: just disable it on the "All" zone and enable it on the Battleground zone.

 

For items used by skills, that's a bit more complicated and maybe you need a source mod.

 

Why you don't check out this source mod? May be useful for what you want: http://herc.ws/board/topic/425-bg-consume-mapflag-battlegrounds-items-that-can-only-be-used-in-bg/

You can try this.

 

getmapflag("<map name>",mf_battleground)

-    script    bg_noequip    -1,{OnPCLoadMapEvent:    if(getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) {        if(isequipped(2220) unequip 2220;    // Hat        if(isequipped(2222) unequip 2222;    // Turban    }    end;    }

 

Give this a try; just make sure your battlegrounds maps have the loadevent mapflag set.

Have you tried these?

 

You can try this.

 

getmapflag("<map name>",mf_battleground)

 

 

 

-    script    bg_noequip    -1,{OnPCLoadMapEvent:    if(getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) {        if(isequipped(2220) unequip 2220;    // Hat        if(isequipped(2222) unequip 2222;    // Turban    }    end;    }

I believe I misunderstood the request. Here's a revised script and response:

 

 

-    script    bg_equip    -1,{OnPCLoadMapEvent:    if(!getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) {        if(isequipped(2220) unequip 2220;    // Hat        if(isequipped(2222) unequip 2222;    // Turban    }    end;    }

 

Just replace the item IDs with your own and add new lines accordingly. This script reads as:

 

When a player loads a map:

If they're not on a Battlegrounds map,

unequip their Hat if they're wearing one;

unequip their Turban if they're wearing one;

 

It's usage would be in a situation where you would want Hats and Turbans to be exclusively used in Battlegrounds. You could add additional prevention by adding a condition to the item's OnEquip script in item_db2.txt

 

 

2222,Turban,Turban,5,4500,,300,,3,,0,0xFFFFFFFE,7,2,256,,0,1,7,{},{ if(!getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) unequip 2222; message strcharinfo(0), "This item can only be worn in Battlegrounds."; },{}

 

This script reads: If you're not on a Battlegrounds map, unequip this Turban when it's equipped and display an error message.

 

if(!getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) unequip 2222; message strcharinfo(0), "This item can only be worn in Battlegrounds.";

 

 

If these limitations are for custom equipment, just use your custom item IDs. If you just want to make a custom potion or consumable of some sort, add a condition to the main script:

 

 

501,Red_Potion,Red Potion,0,50,,70,,,,,0xFFFFFFFF,7,2,,,,,,{ if(!getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) { getitem 501; message strcharinfo(0), "This item can only be used in Battlegrounds."; } else itemheal rand(45,65),0; },{},{}

 

This script reads: If you're not on a Battlegrounds map, get a new potion (to replace the one you just used) and display an error message; otherwise, heal.

 

if(!getmapflag(strcharinfo(3),mf_battleground) { getitem 501; message strcharinfo(0), "This item can only be used in Battlegrounds."; } else  itemheal rand(45,65),0;

Goto map_zone_db.conf

In zone with name: "All"

Put the id you want to disable

example Red_Potion or itemd id: 501

	disabled_items: {	   Red_Potion: true	}

And then...

To enable the Red_Potion on Battlegounds Map..

scroll down and go to zone with name: "Battlegrounds"

Add Red_Potion and set to false if you want to disable

like this:

 

disabled_items: {

Assumptio_5_Scroll: true

Pty_Assumptio_Scroll: true

Red_Potion: false

}
