[JASS] Detecting removed unit in group

[kStiyl]

It seems like when a unit is removed, it is automatically removed from groups as well (I cannot retrieve them with ForGroup; maybe ForGroup simply won't return removed units even if they're in group?)

This is a first time that I actually NEED to detect ghost units because I need to remove locks on their IDs and do some stuff

Any solutions?

*edit: to think about it now, i don't think i can retrieve removed units to begin with (it probably will return null...)

You can always use a hook.

function RemoveUnitEx takes unit u returns nothing
    //perform the actions you want to do
endfunction

hook RemoveUnit RemoveUnitEx

You could always use a Unit Indexing system and remove the unit from the group yourself if the unit is gonna get removed from the game (OnUnitDeindexed).

The easiest solution would be to not remove the unit when it's not ready to be removed yet.

You can use

ShowUnit(unit which,boolean show)
