Is there a way to remove the dead hero limit? the altars can't seem to keep more than 7 dead heroes, when a team's 8th hero dies one of the previous 7 dead heroes is removed from the game.

If there is an easy workaround it should be in gameplay constants.

If not, I think it gets complicated. You have to fake that the hero is actually dead. Firstly we need to display the disabled version of the hero icon on screen. There was a system for this, I think it was called DGUI or something. And then we have to fake the corpse too, but that's easy. Spawn a unit of the same unit type, add locust and order to play death animation.
