[Solved] Level up Normal Units

[Shunpomaster]

I am trying to make units level change mid game but I don't see anything in Action about level of unit except the one for heroes, so i tried it on normal unit but it doesn't work.
Is there a way to level non-hero units mid game?

You have to make your own custom system. Pretty easy with the new natives Blizzard has added.
You could use, say, custom value of the units as the experience value, and then check whenever a unit's custom value hits a certain amount to level them up, giving them more HP/armor/whatever.

Sorry but I wasn't clear enough in my first post.
What I want is a way to increase the level of non-hero units but not with an exp system but more like (Set unit level to), because i am using units level to give gold and exp to nearby heroes. I want to increase units level based on the level of nearby heroes.

Thanks for answering btw

When you talked about hero level I thought you wanted to make unit heroes, my mistake.

Unit levels there are no way to change as far as I know. I just use the trick to morph one unit into another identical unit with a higher level when I do it.

Make an ability based off bear form with the unit you want to morph into as the "normal form unit", and the unit you are morphing from as the "alternate form" unit. Add and remove the ability and the unit will have transformed into the new unit. That is the easiest way to change the level I know of.

Base them on heroes? If not then you will need multiple different unit types with the stats for each level. Use triggers to replace weaker variants with strong variants as the game progresses.

Thought about the multiple units but tried to avoid that because it will take a lot of time lol, but if that is the only way then I might do it.


Thank you both

A simpler way is to make your triggers not be based on actual level but on a virtual level that you can change whenever you want(maybe use hash tables for that)

That could work actually
