And there, for sure, is a scheme:

ReplaceDwelling("script name", TOWN_NECROMANCY)?

Does it definitely use this scheme:

ReplaceDwelling("script name", TOWN_NECROMANCY)?

After that, there are 4 more optional parameters for creature types. But the type of dwelling is determined precisely by the second argument.

How did you do it? What does it look like?

I entered the following into the console: `
@ReplaceDwelling(GetObjectNamesByType("AXEMEN")[0], TOWN_NECROMANCY)
` and in the red player's (dwarf) zone, the blade house turned into a necropolis.

How can you get out of this situation: a hero triggers an event by capturing a town, which is immediately rebuilt... But the AI always sends the hero inside the town before the transformation, and the hero dies...

For starters, I would try inserting a move point penalty before the pause.

How does this subtraction work? I tried it, but I don't quite understand how the function works.

Usually, I use it to add experience or stats... but it's not entirely clear here.

The action points, which are displayed as a green bar in the game, are changed by the specified amount (but not less than 0 and not more than the maximum - the daily gain).

How do you determine how much to subtract?

If you need to subtract the full amount, use:
-GetHeroStat('hero_name', 7)

I did it like this, but the hero still enters the Castle and commits suicide. And there's another problem there... When transforming into a Necropolis, the Halls of Shields somehow become inaccessible, even though the owner hires a caravan from there without any problems. The other buildings work as expected. ``` function CaptureStraker() if (GetObjectOwner("PlayerTown") == PLAYER_4) then ChangeHeroStat("Straker", 7, -GetHeroStat('Straker', 7)) Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, "PlayerTown", nil) TransformTown("PlayerTown", TOWN_NECROMANCY) sleep(2) SetAIPlayerAttractor("PlayerTown", 4, 1) SetAIPlayerAttractor("DwarfTown", 4, 2) sleep(2) ReplaceDwelling("d", TOWN_NECROMANCY) SetObjectOwner("d", 4) ReplaceDwelling("dd", TOWN_NECROMANCY) SetObjectOwner("dd", 4) ReplaceDwelling("ddd", TOWN_NECROMANCY) SetObjectOwner("ddd", 4) ReplaceDwelling("dddd", TOWN_NECROMANCY) SetObjectOwner("dddd", 4) AddObjectCreatures("PlayerTown", CREATURE_LICH, 20) AddObjectCreatures("PlayerTown", CREATURE_BONE_DRAGON, 10) ChangeHeroStat("Straker", 0, 25000) end end

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

function CaptureStraker()
if ( GetObjectOwner ("PlayerTown") == PLAYER_4 ) then
Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, "PlayerTown", nil)
sleep(5)
TransformTown("PlayerTown", TOWN_NECROMANCY)
ChangeHeroStat("Straker", 7, -999999999999999)
sleep(5)
SetAIPlayerAttractor("PlayerTown", 4, 1)
ReplaceDwelling("Dwell1", TOWN_NECROMANCY)
SetObjectOwner("Dwell1", 4)
ReplaceDwelling("Dwell2", TOWN_NECROMANCY)
SetObjectOwner("Dwell2", 4)
ReplaceDwelling("Dwell3", TOWN_NECROMANCY)
SetObjectOwner("Dwell3", 4)
ReplaceDwelling("Dwell4", TOWN_NECROMANCY)
SetObjectOwner("Dwell4", 4)
end
end

ChangeHeroStat("Straker", 7, -999999999999999) was supposed 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.

sleep is unnecessary, try this:

function CaptureStraker(oldOwner, newOwner, heroName, objectName)
    local dwellings = {"Dwell1", "Dwell2", "Dwell3", "Dwell4"};
    if GetObjectOwner(objectName) == PLAYER_4 then
        Trigger(OBJECT_CAPTURE_TRIGGER, "PlayerTown", nil);
        TransformTown(objectName, TOWN_NECROMANCY);
        sleep(3);
        for i = 1, length(dwellings) do
            ReplaceDwelling(dwellings, TOWN_NECROMANCY);
            sleep(1);
            SetObjectOwner(dwellings, PLAYER_4);
            SetAIPlayerAttractor("PlayerTown", PLAYER_4, 1);
        end;
    end;
end;

p.s. if it doesn't help, add BlockGame(); before Transform and Unblock at the end of the function

this happens because the coordinates and available tiles are different for each dwelling, so you need to leave one or two passable tiles around the post so that after the transformation, the active tile is not blocked by another object

Yes, as KioM mentioned, the grid of cells for the hall of shields doesn't match that of the other level 1 buildings. This can be resolved by destroying the building (RazeBuilding) and building a new one (CreateDwelling).

Yes, as KioM said, the grid of cells for the Fortress dwelling does not match that of the other level 1 buildings. This can be resolved by destroying the building (RazeBuilding) and placing a new one (CreateDwelling).

It gives an error in the console, stating that the building is indestructible.

I fixed the suicide bug using teleportation. It now teleports the unit one cell back with a teleport animation. It works. It survives.
