Are Custom Value and Point Value the same thing?

Custom Value: u can set only during game, so dynamic value, but u can change a unit custom value anyy time when u want.
Usefull for unit indexer system (unit indexer usefull for damage detection system , or anywhere when u want attach data to a unit, so usefull for spells and in alot place where u want do it without hashtable)

Point Value: its constant value what u set in object editor
Usefull if u want categorize the unit types or want attach data to unit:
example every unit what got point value 2 respawn in region[2], or if u kill unit then u can get same exp or gold than his point value, or if u have alot area in map then u can set every cave mob point value to 4, and forest creeps point value to 5 (and when die u check just the point value and make different action depend on point value)

Thanks to both of you. Maker, I'm sorry, but Hive doesn't let me give you any more reputation... Some other time then, perhaps
