To me, this seems like a working trigger. Maybe it's just the upgrade I'm using, although everything there seems fine aswell. I know this is a place for triggers but I had might aswell post this up

The upgrade was originally Animal War Training. Can anyone tell me why this wouldn't work?

are you sure you added the upgrade to the upgrades used by the unit in the object editor?

it seems like upgrades still do not affect all units even if you set Applies to all units to true... (based from my experience)

um this adds one then sets it to that plus 1.
Set HERO_Constitution[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (HERO_Constitution[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)
Player - Set the current research level of Increase Constitution to (HERO_Constitution[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1) for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
Eg first cast will set it to level 2, second to level 3 etc. You probably did not mean the extra +1 when setting the upgrade level.

Make sure the hero is configured to be affected by the upgrade in his data. I do not think all units sufices.

I think you mean level 2 at first cast and then 4 at the second cast... it will always increase by 2 levels...

Ah, I see. Here's guessing I make the hero effected by the upgrade in the unit's data? And how will it always increaes by 2? I've set it to only increase by 1.

[edit] kk, I added it to Techtree - Upgrades used, and it didn't work. Any suggestions?

you havent read DSG's explanation do you?

you set HERO_Constitution to HERO_Constitution +1 and then you set upgrade level to HERO_Constitution + 1 so basically you added 1 for two times...
basically: Upgrade level = Hero_con* + 1 (hero_con* == hero_con + 1)

just set upgrade level to HERO_Constitution since you already added 1 to HERO_Constitutionn...

Doh, I see now. But I still can't get it to work. The heroes health isn't increasing when I trigger it to.

I tried to make it and it worked for me...

are you sure you set a value to hit point bonus base and increment? base is the bonus at level 1 and increment will be the bonus on the next levels...

and have you set a default value for the Hero_Con in the variable manager?

 

[Mallaboro]

Kk, never mind. Got it to work. I had so much going on in my starting trigger that it took awhile for the ability to set itself to what it is.
