[Solved] Set integer to ID of unit type?

[SnowYell]

My rawcode for my unit type is h004:hfoo.
I want the integer representation of it like when i use this, i get "174798532":

• Custom script: set udg_TFT_EnteringInteger1 = GetUnitTypeId(udg_TFT_EnteringUnit)

If I use this, it doesn't give me an integer I can use:

• Custom script: set udg_TempInteger = GetUnitTypeId(udg_TempUnit)

Is it possible to get this type of integer "174798532" from referring to a unit type instead of a unit through a Unit Variable in game?

your raw code is h004. The "hfoo" is just the rawcode of unit your custom unit is based off.
Raw code is already an integer. In WE editor, unit-type variable is just an extension of an integer. So you can do something like this:

• -------- one way --------
• Set VariableSet unitType = Footman
• Custom script: set udg_int = udg_unitType
• Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String(int))
• -------- another way --------
• Custom script: set udg_int = 'hfoo'
• Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String(int))

If I do the last one and try to do a message nothing shows up.

I will try to do the first way you mentioned and see if it works.

"udg_int" is an integer variable. Make sure the hfoo is encapsulated by single quotes

Edit: the single quote thing is for jass only. If you are using lua, you want to call FourCC function instead.

// in jass
set udg_int = 'hfoo'

//in lua
udg_int = FourCC('hfoo')

If i used

• set udg_int = 'hfoo'

I got no value for a game message to display, so didn't think it worked.

writing integer as four characters encapsulated by single quotes is in jass for as long as I can remember, it's not a new thing.
In fresh map, this works just fine:

• Test
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) skips a cinematic sequence
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: set udg_int = 'hfoo'
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String(int))

In game it prints:
