Hi, so I'm working on a custom unit that I want to give the Liquid Fire ability to. I found in another thread that Liquid Fire only works if the attacking unit's attack has a range of 300+, but my custom unit is a melee unit.
My next idea for a solution was to create an upgrade that gives the custom unit a second attack type once the Liquid Fire upgrade is researched. This second attack type would be ranged (which I'm OK with) and only be able to target buildings. However, I don't know of any existing upgrades in WC3 that gives a unit a second attack. Is there one?
Another idea I had was to create an upgrade that increases the range of my custom unit. If the unit's range was increased to a value of 300+ then presumably Liquid Fire would start working. My issue with this is that I still want the unit to use melee attacks against non-building units. Is there a way to have an upgrade that affects attack range apply to one one of a unit's two attack types?
Basically, I want a unit that can both use Liquid Fire against buildings (melee or ranged) and use melee attacks against all other units. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to accomplish this, thank you!
