Unit with "Hero Inventory" drops everything

[Tomerion]

Hey all,

I'm having a problem, I'm trying to make normal units capable of using items, so I'm giving them the "Inventory (Hero)" ability. It has always worked fine before, but I just made a new map, and when I set these units to Neutral Hostile, they just simply drop every item. Why is this happening and what can I do?

Change the unit in object editor to "drops items on death false" and then if you want to to drop some items you can make triggers for that

That field allows pre-placed units to drop a random item from a group defined in Item Tables. It is not relevant to dropping items currently in the inventory of the unit.

I mean, they dropping it at the beginning of the game, not when they die.

How can you even add "Inventory (Hero)" to a unit that isn't even an hero in first place?
Have you tried the other ones?

"Inventory (Hero)" is a normal (unit) ability, not a hero ability.

Yes I can add it to normal units, it always worked, but now it's suddenly not working

Do you add the items via trigger at the map initialiazion or you order the units to pick them up?

Edit: I made a simple map and it works for me, both ways. I am on patch 1.31.

I'm double clicking on the units and giving items to their inventories there. It always worked before.

Well, giving items with triggers works, so my advice is to use this method

 

[Wrda]

Well... post your map and we'll be able to understand what you're doing wrong

It works fine with trigger. It takes much longer, but at least it works. Thanks for the help.
