You can set the IsRemovable property to true for these statics.

Instead of UnitCastAimedSpell(unit,spell,target), use startThread(UnitCastAimedSpell,unit,spell,target). The error will remain, but it won't affect the script's further execution.
StartThread doesn't seem to work; it appears that you can't start multiple threads during combat.

What does the console say?

That's strange... The screenshot shows an example. Everything works, there are no errors.
And where is this screenshot from?

No. It's just an NCF file; it only adds creatures (although I'm not sure).

Could there be a mod that adds this feature? Because the Haven faction has different shields.
And where is this screenshot from?
It was present in the combat scripts even in the original.

Does anyone know if this structure will work:
if (condition 1) then (instruction 1)
elseif (condition 2) then (instruction 2)
elseif (condition 3) then (instruction 3)
else (condition 4) then (instruction 4)
In other words, can you use if-elseif-else to write more than three conditions,
or am I misunderstanding the language, and can everything be done more simply?:confused:
All manuals seem to limit this structure to a maximum of three conditions, and I don't know if there's something like Pascal's case of here.

Yeah, just put "end" at the end, and it should work. I'm not sure about the "case" statement, maybe it exists. If it does, it's probably some kind of hybrid between Pascal and C syntax.

Thank you.

To be honest, I'm not very familiar with battle scripts; half of them aren't even in the official manual. Can anyone help me out?:
a) How do you determine if your hero is defending or attacking? (IsAttacker works very strangely)
b) What UnitName should I specify? Is it the name of the unit given to it on the map, or the script name?
c) How do you make a hero cast a spell at the beginning of the battle or in sync with another action (like Frida's Divine Retribution or Leto's Plague)?
I would appreciate it if you could provide some small examples, if possible, because I won't be able to figure it out otherwise.
Thank you in advance.

To be honest, I don't really understand battle scripts. Half of them aren't even in the official manual. Can anyone help me with the following:
a) How do I determine if my hero is defending or attacking? (IsAttacker works very strangely)
b) What UnitName should I specify? Is it the name of the unit as it appears on the map, or the script name?
c) How do I make a hero cast a spell at the beginning of the battle or in sync with another action (like Frida's Divine Retribution or Leto's Plague)?
I would appreciate it if you could provide some small examples, as I won't be able to figure it out otherwise.
Thank you in advance.
if GetHeroName('defender-hero') == 'hero name' then
--hero is defending
elseif GetHeroName('attacker-hero') == 'hero name' then
--hero is attacking
else
--not participating
endc) UnitCastAimedSpell, UnitCastGlobalSpell, UnitCastAreaSpell.
The arguments are described in sufficient detail in the manual (HOMM5_Script_Functions.pdf).

`UnitName` is assigned when any function is called, for example:
function Attacker(Defender)CreatureDeath(unitName)
each time an attacking (or defending) stack of creatures is destroyed, this function is called; the `unitName` parameter is the destroyed stack.
function Attacker(Defender)CreatureMove(unitName) - is called when the turn is passed to the attacking (or defending) stack of creatures; `unitName` is this stack.
I don't know which function to use to cast at the beginning of the battle.
`Prepare()` is called when preparing for battle; `Start()` - I don't know, either after `Prepare()` or before it.
approximately like this:
function Attacker(Defender)CreatureDeath(unitName)
each time an attacking (or defending) stack of creatures is destroyed, this function is called; the `unitName` parameter is the destroyed stack.
function Attacker(Defender)CreatureMove(unitName) - is called when the turn is passed to the attacking (or defending) stack of creatures; `unitName` is this stack.
I don't know which function to use to cast at the beginning of the battle.
`Prepare()` is called when preparing for battle; `Start()` - I don't know, either after `Prepare()` or before it.
approximately like this:
function Start()
hero = GetAttacker(Defender)Hero
UnitCastAreaSpell(hero, spellID, X, Y)
end
