Hero gain building ability

[Randor244]

I'm working on an ability, cast by a building, that will make your main hero able to build just like a peasant/peon/and so on...

I have run into trouble though. I have this trigger:

• Craftmanship
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to (==) Hero Academy
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) Craftmanship
  • Actions
    • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Race of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to (==) Human
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Add Build (Human) to hero1
      • Else - Actions
        • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Race of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to (==) Orc
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Add Build (Orc) to hero1
          • Else - Actions
            • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Race of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to (==) Undead
              • Then - Actions
                • Unit - Add Build (Undead) to hero1
              • Else - Actions
                • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • If - Conditions
                    • (Race of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to (==) Night Elf
                  • Then - Actions
                    • Unit - Add Build (Night Elf) to hero1
                  • Else - Actions
    • Unit - Remove Craftmanship from (Triggering unit)

But as you understand I need sometihing to tell the hero WHAT to build as well. I can't give him anything from the beginning (in the OE as Techtree - structures built) because it has to depend on the player's race.

Any suggestions?

Can't add building options to the Build ability ingame.

 

[Randor244]

Yeah I know - that's the problem...

Got to find alternate ways somehow...

 

[Faust]

Make different build abilities for each race.

 

[Randor244]

Um... there are different building abilities for each race. But they don't change what to build, just how to build.

 

[Faust]

What to build is set in the unit editor.
Nowhere else.
So you have to copy all your heroes then.

you could try to use the build tiny town hall item abilitys

How about adding the build ability in the WE, then at the start of the game disable construction of the building, until the player researches it.

Player - Make Farm Available for training/construction by (Owner of (Researching unit))
