I doubt it, but it’s worth a try.

Godric's Hollow; it needs to be placed after each completed line)
and essentially, you can add print(""); to the function to make sure it's actually being called by the script.

; you need to put it after each completed line)

Not required.

KioM, I suspect that all these transfers of static objects in the fifth game were implemented rather carelessly. For example, I had a case where a campfire within one level could be moved normally, but if I tried to move it from the underground to the surface, strange bugs started to occur. Considering that the bridge affects the surface geometry, Nival might not have implemented the change in geometry when transferring it and creating it using CreateStatic(). Perhaps, even when the bridge is moved, there is still a possibility to walk through the place where it was originally?

Maybe there is a way to make the hero pass through the created bridge using a script? To force it, so to speak.

Well, maybe with some workarounds. Like, take a static object, a hero for example, and play an animation...
The heroes themselves seem to be automatically positioned according to their z-coordinate, so they might end up intersecting with the background. If it even works at all.

If the bridge is impassable, the game should still prevent the player from simply sending their unit to the other side; it should be considered inaccessible. You would have to force the player to approach the bridge and somehow initiate the crossing (e.g., using a teleport function with no animation, so it instantly teleports – a common game convention). Alternatively, you could create a shallow river with a ford in that location, place a region there, and block it for the player, then unlock it after the bridge is built.

How do I make cells inactive so that units cannot move onto them? In my case, these are various types of walls.

What is the correct way to write the command that changes the type of a creature recruitment building on the map (the ones that increase growth)? I need to change all 4 Dwarf buildings, including the outpost, to equivalent Necropolis buildings.

I have a question: what is the correct command to change the type of a building that recruits creatures on the map (the ones that increase recruitment)? I need to change all 4 Dwarf buildings, including the outpost, to the corresponding Necropolis buildings.

ReplaceDwelling('name', TOWN_NECROMANCY)

It doesn't work.

There's no script error, and no effect. The script continues to run normally, but the buildings don't change.

What is the entire script like?

Just a moment...

Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, "PlayerTown", "CaptureStraker")

ChangeHeroStat("Straker", 7, -999999999999999) was intended to remove all movement points and prevent the hero from committing suicide during the castle transformation, but he still manages to enter it and die.

Place commands like print(1), print(2), ... between the key commands so you can see exactly what is not being executed.

I did just that. Everything is executed, but the building type remains the same.

That’s strange, I just checked it on the Blade Keep on the “School” map, and it worked.
