Heroes 3 (HEROECOPALKA)

I can only advise you to do it manually – I have never spent more than 5-8 hours searching for the hero I need (and that's the maximum; usually, it takes an hour or two). And, to be honest, I still do it manually... Of course, there are some nuances...

Here, Dmitry AS said that he doesn't always succeed. Regarding the nuances, I only search in the right window of the tavern because I might need the hero in the left window later this week. Then, after I got rid of the unwanted hero, my desired hero ran away and blocked the right window of the tavern. I have a save before the escape – save1. I also have a save from the moment when the runaway hero appeared there – save2. Now, I'm digging for the hero starting from save2, periodically saving from it to another save – as if I'm trying to influence the random counter. Then, I tried saving save1 as save1N, running away from it again, and then saving as save2N and digging again – but it didn't work. What a nuisance! Does anyone else have similar experience? I'm curious – after the tournament, will anyone try to prove from my save that it's possible to dig up the hero I need? :)
PS. And for some reason, everyone ignored the fact that you can use codes in a save to see who's in another tavern. As if no one was interested. Maybe someone didn't understand what I was talking about, but if they did and are silent? That raises some suspicions. You can also look in your own tavern. With my "Axe-digger," I could have dug up whoever I needed in five minutes. But the "Hero-digger" fits the rules, but it doesn't work for me. And the "Axe-digger" doesn't fit the rules
