Raise Dead turning the corpse in the undead version of the unit

[username12345]

Is it possible to raise diferent corpses into different undead?
For example if I had an undead stag model then I killed a stag ingame then cast raise dead (or whatever it's called) on its corpse how would I make it so that I would raise an undead stag? And also still be able to raise an undead footman from a footman corpse with the same spell?
And all this without 3rd party programs (just TFT WE)?



Thanks

first of all you need to create undead versions of each unit you want to be raised ^^
Then you have to trigger your raise ability
you make the raise ability basically do nothing
or you make it summon a dummy
then you shoot a trigger that should look like this

• custom raise dead
• Events
  • Unit - A unit starts casting an Ability
• Conditions
  • Unittype of casting unit = 'your unit'
  • Ability being cast = raise dead
• Actions
  • If unittype of (Target unit of ability being cast = Footman) then do (Unit - Create 1 undead Footman at position of (Target unit of ablity being cast)
  • If unittype of (.... = Sniper) then do ... and so on

This would be the way id do it
You can shorten everything a bit if u do a table of raisable units and have 2 unittype arrays of units to define which units should be raised and so on

If you need more help feel free to ask

SWEEEEEEEET okay thanks I just hope I don't have to do any variable stuff (No clue how )

THANK YOOOUUUU +rep


Edit: It will still recognise the unit as a footman (or whatever) when it's just a stiff right?


Thanks

yeah i tried that out, corpses are still recognized as their former unit-type

but please note that the trigger i posted will leak
if you dont raise thousands of units it wont be that bad but just wanted to tell you

You can use resurretion if you dont want to use trigger.
