What natives are you using /or what are usefull/ from common.ai
except UnitAlive for purposes not associated with AI

native GetUnitBuildTime takes integer unitid returns integer
is used here: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...ction-v2-1-a-248978/?prev=status=a&u=IcemanBo

I tested pretty much all of the interesting ones, and most just don't work for us.

I think some people have tried to use:

native GetUnitGoldCost      takes integer unitid                        returns integer
native GetUnitWoodCost      takes integer unitid                        returns integer

If you have some creeps, there are some AI behavior ones that are also useful (e.g. related to fleeing), but I haven't tested them.

barely anything from there working now. most of them doesnt even exists as a code or cause fatal errors

Hmm, indeed not much as for whole .ai file
Thanks all, +rep

native GetUnitGoldCost takes integer unitid returns integer
native GetUnitWoodCost takes integer unitid returns integer

just made some tests, it works fine but crashing the game for heroes, so it can be used for regular units only
// these natives will copy values from Object Editor fields "Gold Cost", "Lumber Cost", "Build Time"
// do NOT use for heroes! *it will crash a game*

I found this one works ok
native GetPlayerUnitTypeCount takes player p, integer unitid returns integer
//counts only alive units/heroes/structures
//counts also units during training; also counts buildings under construction
//counts building during upgrade (like upgrade town hall-->keep in progress, counts as keep)
//counts also heroes during revieving

btw

how can I make this line on forum, so it looks like in WorldEditor, it has white background, coloured natives, etc

It's simply instead of [code=jass] tags. :) A trick for finding out certain BB code can also be to quote a post to analyse it.
