problem with custom race

[Dandesneige]

Hi, I have a problem. I created a new race and I used triggers to be able to select it. But , you I use it the first hero a use, which with the standard races is free, is costing me money and would. Is there a way to make change that so it would be free like the standard ones?

Okay, I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think you are looking for this:
Go to:
Advanced/Gameplay Constants
Look up:
Techtree - Dependency Equialents - Hero
And add your custom hero to the names.

^- That doesnt actually work, i had this problem too and what the above suggested was the first thing i tried (no dice )

However, i found a roundabout solution to it. When you create your units for your custom race, also run the "creating starting units for player - include heroes" trigger from the melee game section, then immediately remove the created units. This will cause the first hero trained to cost 5 gold, regardless of where it is trained from.

Another note, make sure all your techtree dependencies ARE set (as above mentioned) because these affect what the game considers as heroes and tiers (important for this kind of triggering system).

Yes it's work (if you add this trigger), but if you want a real "custom race" add this thing in melee initialisation.
