Hi, in my map I wanted all the units to level up, so I replaced all the regular units with heroes. However when I tried AI (which I created with AI editor and which worked when I tried it with regular units) haven´t worked properly with heroes. Instead of training various units I ordered, they were just constantly training peons.

Should AI editor work the same way with heroes as it works with regular units?

Idea is just insane :D
Better create system that will level up units after kills, time elapsed or whatever...
 
Why do you think it´s insane, Kobas?
Because having like 100 heroes on map for 1 player looks silly eh, also you can have max like 5 hero icons so that's really bad idea.

I suggest something like endurance ability or few others like critical, evasion etc.
Make them go from level 0 to level 5 for example.
When unit kill another unit increase this level, and doing so you level up unit.
Level 0 - Novice
Level 1 - Soldier
Level 2 - Captain
Level 3 - Liutenant
Level 4 - Commander
Level 5 - Golden General

You can increase it stats, such as range, dmg, armor etc etc :)

I can make this system for you in jass form if you want?

Actually, I wanted to disable all the hero things(icons, map dots, reviving), so they would act like normal units. I´m sure there are more maps made for Warcraft 3, which uses heroes. Also I always want to use as few triggers as possible.
