Hello everyone, could you please advise me on something?
Is it possible to configure a function to execute not based on a specific trigger from the list of triggers, but based on something else, such as the construction of a building or the appearance of a specific artifact or creature with a particular hero or player?
It seems that the command that starts a new thread does something similar (although I don't really know what a thread is).
`startThread(fProc, vParam1, vParam2, ...)`
Theoretically, if I understand correctly, it should constantly check for a specific condition, but I can't figure out how to use it.
Specifically, I need to replace one creature with another in a hero's army when a specific building is constructed in a town.
Currently, I have something like this:
```
function replacecreature ();
if GetHeroCreatures( "Sarge", CREATURE_ARCHER ) >= 1
and GetTownBuildingLevel( "cheast_town", TOWN_BUILDING_DWELLING_2 ) = 2;
then AddHeroCreatures( "Sarge", CREATURE_LONGBOWMAN, 1 );
RemoveHeroCreatures( "Sarge", CREATURE_ARCHER, 9999 );
else nil;
end;
end;
startThread( "replacecreature", TOWN_BUILDING_DWELLING_2 );
```
What's wrong with this, and is it even possible to do what I'm describing? If not, is there a similar alternative?
Thank you very much in advance for any advice.
