multiple attacks?

[Emu.Man00]

The only units ive seen with multiple attacks are things that have separate attacks for ground and air. But i want to use it in a different manner.

I want to have a hero with 2 attacks, one ranged and one melee. The goal is that the melee would do more, but the ranged has the obvious advantage of being ranged.

SO:
Is it possible to have said hero use the ranged attack, but use melee when the other unit is close enough?

If not is it possible to use a different button to force the melee attack that is based on 'combat--attack 2' from object editor?

You should be able to set attack 1 with a min/max range for melle and attack 2 with a min/max range, those of which should not collide with eachother lol. Not sure if this would work though :/ You can always use a spell which changes it as well. Again, I'm not sure if the first will work, I've never tried.

I alrdy put one ranged and one melee attack, he used the range one all the time (i wasnt rly expecting this to work, simply hoping xD)

But how would i go about changing it with a spell? I wouldn't know where to start looking :]

Unfortately, what you want was a *major* over-sight by Blizzard.

There is only 1 min-max field for a unit, not 1 per attack.

You can use some ability like Morph (Bear/Druid)
And have one the form be your melee hero, and the other be ranged
