Upgrading units into units

Wrong

@Draqz: You are wrong! Here is what you do: (I think it's a bug... so you abuse a WE bug.)

1 - Open object editor.

2 - Find/create the unit you want to transform.(I will call it werewolf in this "tutorial")

3 - Make the unit a structure by selecting the box; Is a structure.

4 - Create the warrior unit.

5 - Set the "Techtree - Upgrades to" to the warrior.

6 - Now make the werewolf a unit again by deselecting "Is a strcture"

7 - When you test it in-game you will be able to upgrade to a warrior. Requires only the unit object editor! This is how I do it.

PS: It worked at 1.17, haven't tested in 1.18, but it should work since they don't mension it at the update deatails...

Hope I helped you!

Another way is ofcourse to edit the Druid of the Claw "Bear Form" ability. And if you want special effects on that, you must use triggers.

yep that's just about what i did. Only i made an ability and did when a unit is issued an order with no target.
