[Solved] Orc Burrow should release occupants when upgrading

I have given Orc Burrow structure a building upgrade to Watch Tower, issue is that if there was Peons inside they cannot eject out of it when the upgrade begins, and are lost when the upgrade has finished. i thought that it would automatically eject occupants upon being issued the order to upgrade yet turns out to not be the case. Is there any way i can prevent this ? i can only hope that it can be done without requiring a complicated system for it.

Tried removing critical abilities from the orc burrow when it upgrades? Such as removing the cargo hold ability. Try forcing the units to unload.

A work around might be to make a dummy upgrade unit type which is the exact same orc burrow with the expected cost and watch tower model. When the burrow finishes upgrading into this dummy burrow type, it forcefully unloads all units from the burrow using triggers, and only when all units are unloaded would triggers then cause the dummy burrow to near instantly upgrade into the watch tower.
 
ive managed to solve it by using DEE-BOO's method from this thread:
