[General] I want to make all the campaign heroes (like Arthas, Jaina) recruitable in custom games, how?

[Dancing Mad]

How do I go about it? I believe I can't simply edit the map because it ruins the AI for that map. Can anyone help me?

you can edit the map. what you need to do is make the heroes unavailable to the ai. if the ai can take over any player you need to trigger it. elapsed time at one second. in actions you put if/ then/ else, multiple functions. then you select player controller comparison for if conditions and set that to computer. then for action you set player- set training/construction availability of unit. then you select arthas instad of footman and unavailable instead of available. you need to repeat the process for each hero and for each player.

Wow, this sounds complicated as hell. I do want the AI to be able to recruit campaign heroes too

in that case you need to use the ai editor to program it in. that is beyond my knowledge.
