Question about Replacing Units

[Karzama]

Hi

So I was wondering whether having a unit get replaced will take it out of all of it's unit groups or whether the new unit will also replace the one in the unit group?

It wont hold anything of old unit. You have to add it again. Also variables wont refer anymore to your new unit.

Okay then. If I have a trigger that detects when a unit enters (playable map bounds) and adds them to different groups will this add the new replaced unit? (Given that the new replaced unit should now be entering the region)

Yes I think so. You also could "Add LastReplacedUnit to UnitGroup".

I'll have to test it. Was just trying to avoid having to add to old triggers (there's a few)

You could use bear form, ability by orcs... instead of using replace units. ReplaceUnit is not the best solution usually.
