Any function that converts unittype to its unitid??

 

[Bribe]

if GetUnitTypeId(GetTriggerUnit()) == 'hfoo' then?

What do you mean, "Unit ID". A unit's ID is determined by it's raw-code (which is returned, as Bribe says, with GetUnitTypeId()). In the object editor it can be found by pressing Ctrl+D, which replaces the objects' names with raw-code data IDs.

Many jass learners are confused when switching from GUI because in GUI, Unit Type is a variable type, while jass just has integer.

It's weird, actually, when I make a GUI variable that is of the "Unit-Type" type, declare it and use it in a call statement it seems like the type is treated exactly as an integer, though when I define a global unittype variable and define it to the same thing as I did in the GUI version it tells me that it cannot convert a unit-type to an integer. This leads me to believe that GUI doesn't even use unittype, instead it simply uses an integer.

Yea, this is what it reads in the map script (the unit-type declaration in the GUI):

integer udg_What= 0

That is how it is declared, and as you can see they do not even use their own useless type.
