When you respond to death event, given unit has already lost it's progresses and it's status thus this method will not work.

You need to capture all buldings that are being built via _CONSTRUCT_START and remove them from group/clear the flag when _CONSTRUCT_FINISH/_CANCEL fires. Now when you are done with that, just check if unit is in group/flag and respond accordingly to _DEATH event.

Okey, thats how I'm doing it then. Do I really need to remove them on cancel though? If I don't it leaks I suppose.
