Creeps Drop Item

[Ragnar9]

Having an issue where creeps will not hold on to an item.

The Neutral Hostile Unit is given the Unit Inventory ability and given an item, but when I run the game the creep is standing on the item, not holding it.
Any thoughts?

Not a huge deal but annoying.

Does that Unit inventory ability require a research like Backpack for instance? If it's missing for the neutral hostile player then they couldn't use the inventory yet

why don't you just use the built-in system for creeps dropping items?
(based on the title of the thread that is what I assume you are trying to achieve here...)

He might want the item in the creep's inventory so you can see what it will drop beforehand, or just to make creeps that drop items stronger.

Use the hero inventory ability instead if you want the creep to be able to use the item (gain armor from holding ring of protection etc.), otherwise as an earlier poster said you need to remove the tech tree requirements from unit inventory.
