Hi, I'm wondering how I can change the model used for an item container depending on what hero has the container (I'm guessing through triggers). Sounds trivial, but I can't seem to find how. Also, the 'empty face' for the slots, how can I make different empty faces for weapons/armour slots etc. the field under slots doesn't seem to affect anything?
I've only got four different hero types atm, so if I have to make four different containers that's do-able, just not the 'ideal' method.
If it's possible to change it'll be via Catalog Field Set. That'll change it for every unit a player has though, it's likely not possible to change it for an individual unit. As for the face button, that's just another aspect of the inventory system that isn't implemented yet. The whole thing is only barely workable at this point, just hope Blizzard decides to polish it a bit soon (or someone releases a complete reimplementation.)
Catalog Field Set you say - I'll look into it, haven't really looked at the catalog stuff. Changing it for every unit is fine for me, since the player should only have one unit in this game (or, at least, only one with an inventory). As long as it doesn't change for every player.

I'll get back to you on whether or not it works.
Ah yes, the catalog is more or less what I was looking for. Can't believe I didn't know about that stuff, it's awesome!
Only trouble I had was getting the string of the unit to set it to :s there's no 'text-to-string' only 'string-to-text'. Ended up with:
Which seems to work perfectly.
Thanks!
