Applying upgrades instantly

[Angelusz]

Heya people, i've got a cute little map called
StarCraft Zone Control.
The marines used in the map can be upgraded, both weapons and armor.
How can i make the upgrades apply instantly when the upgrade is done, current upgrades are only applied to the newly spawned units.

(the units are created, not trained)
Thanks in advance,
Angelusz

That's interesting. In melee, upgrades affect all units, not just new ones. What are you doing to upgrade them?

Well, i made custom upgrades, how:
Took normal damage upgrade, copied it, and started editing it to fit it to my map.

The upgrades are gun upgrades which increase damage of the marines by 1 per upgrade, max lvl = 50.

I did something else for armor, every upgrade the marines get +1 armor, and one level of enforced armor.
(enforced armor = hardened skin, blocking damage)
enforced armor lvl blocks 1 damage, lvl 2 2 damage and so on, that + 1 armor lvl.
The minimum damage = 0, but, there's a % chance that the damage will be blocked, so it's not 100% reliable.
(the higher you upgrade armor, the higher the % gets.)

The marines are spawned by triggers, as simply as possible:

Event: a bunker is made at location X
Then: 
Set location X owner = Owner of triggering unit
Trigger - turn on spawn units location X

Event: Every 4 seconds of the game
Then: Unit - create 1 marine for (Location X owner)

Event: Bunker dies
Then: Turn off spawn ...

That is not the exact code, but it's something similar to that (a bit more complicated.)[/code]
