Set unit skin

[micca]

The set unit skin action wants an integer, but the preset parameter is a string. How exactly to use this action? Or is there a better way to change unit's skins dynamicaly ingame?

I believe this function is the best way. Looks like it is broken though. You could convert the four letter code to a number (for instance footman 'hfoo' is 1751543663), but I cannot get the WE prompt to put in more than 1000000000 for a number.

It will work if you use customscript: BlzSetUnitSkin(<unit>, < new unitcode>)

Ok, I will try to use this custom script method.
