Idk why you also make priests and count them together with footmen, but this was your problem.
You want barracks go on training after preist died?

I'm not sure I understand. Why does it stop at four footmen?
The reason for the dummy unit is that the game does not count training units when you count units in a unit group. This allows me to avoid the AI filling the build queue thus allowing it to maximize resources.

When you set the unit groups, you don't check if the matching unit is alive. When the priests die from their timed life, they are still counted in the setgroup 
So you need to set the group to Matching unit is Alive AND OR Unittype of matching unit is Footman/Priest.
Here's a shitty way of doing it:

I do not understand why this is not working. Right now the AI trains 12 footmen and then stops. The standard AI files controls building structures and heroes. After a hero dies it is not revived. Neither of these two is intended.

Put yourself as the AI player and start the game, then check what the triggers does.
