[JASS] Dark Conversion, how to target Commoner?

[Titanhex]

So I'm duplicating the Dark Conversion effect. What I want to do is simply kill the unit and create a new unit in it's place. However, the spell should work like Dark Conversion and only target Commoner.

The only problem is, how do I check to make sure the unit is a commoner? There is no UNIT_TYPE_COMMONER, and common.j doesn't list a commoner classification. I suppose I could always do an If IsUnit() against rawcodes, but if I was to do Orc it would be ungodly long.

What are some viable solutions? Sure I could use a dummy spell with Dark Conversion, but I'd like to avoid filling up the object editor.

Actually, the solution is a loooot simpler than that. All you have to do is to change the units' race to "Creep" (or neutral passive, maybe). "Commoner" is another name for the creep race.

So how do I check to see if the units' race is creep during the boolean checks in my if?

I don't have JASScraft installed, so I'm not really sure, but I believe there is a race check function.

RACE_ORC, RACE_NIGHTELF, RACE_UNDEAD, RACE_HUMAN, RACE_OTHER

Those are the only ones I know of, but those relates to players, and the races they picked, not units.

you can select race of a unit.... I used that condition some time ago.....
