Hello again. I am having trouble again on my map Sim City. I have a shop, that sells and item called History of Sim City. The item's stats look like this:

Text - Hotkey H
Text - Name History of Sim City
Text - Tooltip - Basic Purchase History of Sim City
Text - Tooltip - Extended Read this and you will unlock a new area in Optional Quests.

Thats the info on the item. Then I set up a trigger to see if I could get a neq quest to pop up if the hero read that item. This is the info on the trigger:

Name - HistorSimRed
-Events
Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 Red uses an item
-Conditions
Item type comparison, History of Sim City equal to History of Sim City
-Actions
Quests - Create an optional quest titled History of Sim City. blah blah blah
Game - Display to Player 1 Red the text: yaddayaddayadda
Trigger - Turn off (This one)

The reason I wrote yaddayaddayadda was because I was pretty sure you didn't need to know that stuff. The reason I displayed both of these is because I dont know if the error is with the item or the trigger. Please help me!

Neither worked. On both of them, I bought the item, but when I went to use it I couldn't. I click on it and it would still have 1 charge with no message popping up and no new quest.

That's gota be something to do with the item than. Give it an ability that doesn't really do anything.

Maybe make a war stomp that has no effect and no damage and give the item that.

I gave it the Blight Growth (Small) ability and it still couldn't be used, but it says it has a charge :(
#7
Change the condition to what Ilamafier said and do the war stomp thing.

It worked! Thank you so much, this was really starting to confuse me.
