I'd just create another hero of the dying heroes type and make it play its death animation right when the original hero starts to die that way it will be paused at that position. Of course you would have to mess around with all of it and maybe change the Paladin's ability that revives the heroes around too. You would have to use triggers to make the ability to work otherwise it won't cause it is alive If you can't find an easier way that's an option.

I dont think heroes can be ressurection through ressurection. You can go to the object editor and do "Does not decay, Does raise" or something like that

 

[Slapshot136]

set all the hero's to a unit variable with an array, make a unit where the hero died, then kill it, and store it to a variable parallel to the hero's and then do like if this unit si resurected, remove it and revive this hero here

No. Heroes are heroes, units (that aren't heroes) are units.

More harder than we may think.


The best way is triggering, by creating a hero corpse and pausing it, while it is able to be targeted. (read 2 posts before)

Also, you may pause it's animation (set animation speed to 0%).

Yes the Trigger code to do it is just 2 posts above this one -.-

Hi, I've read your post Synthetics, I have a problem with the code, you seem to use a (or many) Variables in the tigger if I'm correct. I'm trying to make a variable to my testmap but I have no idea about what variable type and stuff I should have.

Right now the most logical to me is the variable "Death" to be a Buff or a Ability, I've read the "Learning Variable Basics" but I can't find what type the Death buff should be as.

Please, could *anyone* clear this thing up for me?

Dying
Unit - Add Death  to (Dying unit)

Reviving
((Target unit of ability being cast) has buff Death ) Equal to True

Unit - Remove Death  from (Target unit of ability being cast)
