Computer abilites and drop items on death help

[DrumMage]

How do I make it where the unit controlled by the computer uses it's abilities ? The computer controlled unit on my map doesnt use any of it's abilities.

Also how do I make a enemy unit drop items on death ? When he isnt on the map untill later.

To 1. Use fixed player settings (Scenario/Force Properties), and be sure you set the controller of the player to computer (in Scenario/Player Properties)

To 2. Looking up the triggers, plz wait

Hm, there's no trigger to add an item drop to a unit. But you can do it by triggers, e.g.

ItemCreation
Events
Unit - A unit Dies
Conditions
Actions
Item - Create (Random level 3 item-type) at (Position of (Dying unit))

Actually, there is. It's just located under Hero (Hero - Drop Item from Hero)

@oz02

That's for items in the heros inventory. But I think DrumMage wanted solution for dropping items on unit's death (like the creeps do on melee maps)

Oh, sorry. I guess i misunderstood the question.

 

[DrumMage]

I dont think I was clear on the second question.

I wanted a hero to drop a certain item when he is killed but since the hero is not on the map untill later im not sure how to add it.

I tried the stuff you guys suggested and some others but it still wont work.

You mean: A hero shall drop an item out of his inventory on his death (specific item or all items?)

I will create a trigger for a specific item drop on dead and add it to this post in some mins

OK, here it is.
