[General] Makes Creep gains level over time?

[Jaccouille]

I got creeps spawning randomly on a map, I want them to get stronger the longer they stay alive, and want them to grant more xp the stronger they are, I checked if I could do that with the set scale,damage,hp,name native.

I haven't checked/decided on how I will handle xp, but I thought about updating the creep level alongside it's stat, seeing that the setLevel native is for hero, I wondered if it was even possible. I could make them hero I guess, but I kinda want to hide their stats (str,agi,int) display.

Thx by advance for answering

You might want to look into heroic units for the second option. HeroicUnit - Engineering Upgrade on non-hero units!

Alternatively do your own Custom XP with a periodic event changing stats at certain times

Make the creeps heroes and give them tomes of health/dmg/agi/etc.

There's no point of giving tomes if you can just modify the attributes or set the hp and damage with the new natives.

*Creeps can be given upgrades, and triggers can be used to set them at whatever level you want them to be throughout the game -it can be based on what the player does, the overall game time or some other factor.

*My second suggestion would simply be to create many versions of the same unit:

Say a creep at level 5, a creep at level 6 and a creep at level 7,
Create a trigger that will replace the creep with its higher level variant
You can also give the higher level variants stronger abilities, more abilities, and other things besides just more hp.
