Make an custom upgrade for Peasant with gold cost

[ColdCrow]

Hey there guys!. I'm having trouble finding how to make a Peasant(normal unit) have a upgrade called "Footman" and the upgrade it'll cost 135 gold (and the upgrade will transfrom the peasant to a footman). Cant figure how to do it, somebody could tell me?.


Thanks.

Edit1: I've used the "Destroyer Form" abilty but idk what now, where i specific if it will cost 135 gold and if it'll convert to a footman

Just base it on the headhunter upgrade.

For singular unit, use Destroyer Form ability.
For en masse, use Headhunter Upgrade.

Not the upgrade, the ability version.
You're using the upgrade at the moment.

Destroyer Form charges resources as if you would train the unit through a barracks. So you control the cost of the unit through the unit's object editor field. Morphing a Peasant into a Footman using Destroyer ability would cost 135 gold unless you changed the cost of the Footman.

!Units that have been created through Destroyer Form and die will be revived as the original units. So if a Paladin casts Resurrection near you dead Footmen they will revive as Peasants if they were created by Destroyer Form.

another solution is to use charge(gold and lumber) and intercept the ability with a trigger that gives the unit an ability based on chaos. be warned that it will not unlock through research but always be available.

This is the way to go, although using Chaos to morph is not the best idea. Instead use the Bearform trick to passively morph the Peasant when casting Charge Gold and Lumber. And that's it!
