Store the hero in a unit variable when he is picked, upon death, revive the variable hero.

• Hero Death
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Triggering unit) Equal to HeroUnitVariable
  • Actions
    • Hero - Instantly revive HeroUnitVariable at (Center of Region 000 <gen>), Hide revival graphics

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of (Your Region))
    • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at Temp_Point, Show revival graphics
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)

Temp_Point = Point Variable

You don't need a Unit Variable for Heroes, this is one of the very rare occasions where you do not need to write it in JASS or MUI or anything...

Can be done in simple GUI, even with a Wait trigger it will not get backed up.

ludnica's trigger will do exactly what you want while cleaning the obvious leaks. The only variable you will need to make is the point variable.

Just to say it's a perfect Mui stand, you should change Dying unit for Triggering unit, Triggering unit is avaible a longer time than Dying unit.

How so?
I think triggers go off a lot more then deaths.

And if anything GetDyingUnit() is better since it's the actual type made for "Unit dies".

Errrrrm I'm pretty sure Triggering Unit is better, but there's no convincing proof of that. Anyways, you might also want to check that the owner isn't a computer, just in case you have a boss hero.

There, looks exactly the same. The custom script thing:
Press Actions > Press "C" twice or until you find "Custom Script" > Select the red field saying Script Code > type or paste this inside it exactly as you see it.

call RemoveLocation(udg_Revivepoint)
