How to make a unit upgrade when a buildin is upgraded?

[gabriono]

I want to make something like this: When Barracks 1 upgrades to Barracks 2 then Footman 1 upgrades to Footman 2 Without replacing the unit, just like Troll headhunter -> Troll Beserker

Then go see how trolls do it. They use the ability Berserk Upgrade (Sbsk). So add this ability (it has a requirement on default).

You could use the Berserker method, whereby Footman 1 has a Chaos ability that changes him into Footman 2 but requires a Barracks 2. But I'm not too sure what you mean by "without replacing the unit", so I think I might suggest you make Barracks 2 train Footman 2 instead of Footman 1.

I made it by triggers becouse i dont know why but "Beserker upgrade" dosent work, i dont know what i did wrong. Can you make pls a map with a unit with this upgrade to see what i have to change?

• Unit Transform
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes research
  • Conditions
    • (Researched tech-type) Equal to Upgrade to Unit 2
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by (Triggering player)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If ((Unit-type of (Picked unit)) Equal to Unit 1) then do (Unit - Replace (Picked unit) with a Unit 2 using The old unit's relative life and mana) else do (Do nothing)

Your trigger works fine but as kaerfnomekop said you have to set the barracks 2 to create these footman 2 in order to make sure those you create next will be the same type... otherwise this is a perfect solution and easy as well

I made a test map. Hope it suits your purposes. Though I'm not too sure if the triggering was really necessary.
