Refer to a Unit Type's Stats

[Kino]

Im making a local upgrade system (eg. each time a Grunt is upgraded, it gains +20% max hp of the base number).
Is there an easy solution to retrieve the base hp of a unit type? (as opposed to a specific unit)

The sensible way to do this is to index the (life bonus per upgrade) for each unit type and refer from there, but Id like to know if there are other methods.

another way you could do it (not necessarily better than what you suggested... ) would be to create a new unit of that type and check it's data and then remove it. Some sort of indexing does sound more sensible than this....
