[General] Backpack Upgrade

[AndrewTater]

I had a weird question about a custom Backpack.

I've turned a custom unit backpack into a 2-tier ability. Tier 1 is the standard backpack, but I want to be able to give the Human Captains and Blood Elf Lieutenants a second level where they can carry 4 items instead. I've already built the custom ability, and made it a 2-level ability.

Now, making the upgrade itself 2 levels is easy. My only problem is that my custom ability is tricky. I can set it to be 2 levels, but when it comes to the following three fields, I'm confused:

Techtree - Check Dependencies
Techtree - Requirements
Techtree - Requirements Levels

I can place two separate integers into Techtree - Requirements; will the game see that this means the first pair of inventory slots requires one level of Backpack and the additional slots requires the second level of backpacks? Or do I have to give my unit 2 separate abilities; essentially the standard backpack and a second ability that will be the other 2 slots?

I can't test my map right now to figure it out because WC3 crashes every time I open it. I am tired of reinstalling this damn game every other week just to test maps.

Thanks!

From what i understood here, you made a custom backpack ability based on the original and upgraded it to 2 levels?
mhmmm.. I am not super familiar with upgrades but you have to create two abillities.

If you create only one ability if you upgrade backpack the second time all the units with normal backpack will be able to carry 4 items.

So i will create 2 abilities, both with 2 slots. After the first one is done you enable the second one, and you add the 4 slot ability only to the capitains units. So they will have 4 items in the end.

I do not know if this works and you have to test it yourself

Let me know
