Merge individual shipping costs

Hey everyone,
sorry in advance for my english, I’m trying my best!

I came across a little problem when I was trying to figure out how to merge shipping costs for some specific product types and I was hoping you might know the answer to my problem.

I have three different product types in my webshop and they come from two different distributors, so two of them are getting shipped together and one is getting shipped seperately.

There are colors = category X
and Paper = category Y
and Large Paper = category Z

Therefore if someone orders an item from categorie X and Y/Z the shipping costs are meant to add up (because of different distributors). So far, so good. I could handle that by my own. The problem I’m running into is, the large paper is more expensive to ship. So it has its own category, if someone orders Y and Z together, I want the shipping cost to be just the higher one (because of same distributor). But if someone orders X and Y or X and Z together it should still add up. Here is an example:

shipping cost X = 10.–
shipping cost Y = 10.–
shipping cost Z = 15.–

if someone orders X + Y = 20.–
if someone orders Y + Z = 15.– (since they are coming from the same distributor it has to be just the more expensive rate)
if someone orders X + Z = 25.– (since they are coming from different distributors it should up)

Does any of you woocommerce pro’s know a solution for that?

Thank you so much in advance, looking forward to hear from you
