Do you mean the Select Unit ability that the shops use? or do you want the player to only be able to have footmen selected?

 

[eightbraker]

as in when a shop selects your units, bud i want it to only be abel to select footman

 

[Idontknowyou]

That's a tough one since that ability doesn't give you many options to work with in the editor. Why do you want it to select footmen only? maybe I can come up with an alternative for you.

well im makin ability packs, eg medic, gunner, exa, bud im gona make it so u have to buy em with a footman and that footman dies after u buy 1, and gives it to ur hero, that way they can only buy 1 ability pack!

Alright, give me a moment and Ill make a trigger for you:

Spoiler

Class Selection
    Events
        Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Class Selector
    Actions
        If ((Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to MedicItem) then do (Unit - Replace (Triggering unit) with a Medic using The old unit's relative life and mana) else do (Do nothing)
        If ((Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to GunnerItem) then do (Unit - Replace (Triggering unit) with a Gunner using The old unit's relative life and mana) else do (Do nothing)
        If ((Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to SniperItem) then do (Unit - Replace (Triggering unit) with a Sniper using The old unit's relative life and mana) else do (Do nothing)

I would also recommend having the store in a separated starting area and that you move the new unit to the main area after buying the item.

kool bud i just had a idea, wad if the footman was replaced by the item?

 

[Idontknowyou]

That wouldn't make any sense.

with ur spell, theres no unit called medic, its just a item with a spell book ability, that way the unit can pick it up and use it and keep the model
