Hi,

I'm trying to detect a corpse. I found a couple of functions which I can use, but none of them answer the question with 100% accuracy.

JASS:
local boolean IsUnitDead = IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_DEAD) == true // Flying unit is dead, but it is not a corpse, etc.
local boolean IsUnitAlive = UnitAlive(GetFilterUnit()) == false // Corpse spawned by the graveyard is alive for first 5-10 seconds, etc.
local boolean IsUnitLife = GetWidgetLife(GetFilterUnit()) // Structure with 0 hp is not a corpse, etc.

How you guys find corpses?
