I'm creating a map and have a question:
I've disabled "Astral Gate" on the map and placed a scroll with this spell. Question: will "Astral Gate" work if the hero has this scroll?

It will.

Is it possible to attach point lights to a hero?

They will be.

Is it possible to attach point lights to a hero?

Thank you for the answer!
Yes, it is. There is a special section called "Point Lights" in the hero's properties.

In the hero's properties, there is a special section called "Point Lights".

I know that – this property exists for all objects... But for a hero, if you set it the same way as for any other object, it doesn't work (probably because he is a moving object).
So, is it possible to make him a light source, or is it impossible?

I also have a question: is it possible to make it so that the hero doesn't walk around the map but teleports instead? I spent about 2 hours yesterday picking out different walking animations for Kha-Beleth – it just doesn't look right. But teleportation, like the one used by the Jarls, would suit him much better. :confused:

I can't give you a precise answer, as I haven't tried it myself, but try replacing the movement animation with an animation of entities moving like Jarls (i.e., those that don't walk but teleport).
Ideally, Jarls should have a teleportation animation instead of a walking animation.

it's not that simple... those creatures that teleport have 2 animations: moveStart and moveEnd. When I assign them, it just keeps rotating, but doesn't disappear... there must be something more complex involved...

The idea arose to make the heroes used only in cutscenes playable, for example, the infantry units Raileigh and Zehir. The problem is that they don't have animations for buffing, casting, or attacking (the movement needs to be checked as well). Can you tell me where I can define these animations? I couldn't find it in Shared.

I have a counter-question: where can I find the footman Raileigh in the editor? :confused:

Winner,
Ment
We take a hero, in the object's properties tree, we select Shared and click on "...".
In the right part of the newly opened window, we are interested in the HeroCharacterArena and HeroCharacterAdventure properties. For each of them, we click on "..." and select the Minotaur (Characters\Creatures\Dungeon). We are in no hurry to close the window: the Minotaur lacks animations that heroes should have. We select ArenaAnimSet and click on "...". For complete happiness, it lacks buff, cast, defeat, and victory animations. We right-click on animations, add in the opened menu, in kind, we write the name of the animation that we don't have, and in the Anim property, we copy the value of this property from some other animation (to taste). In general, that's it. The only problem: melee attack, because our Minotaur, in theory, cannot shoot. Unfortunately, standard creature animations are not suitable for melee attacks, so I can only suggest adding rangeattack to the list of animations above for shooting.

You place a hero on the map. In MapPropertiesThree, select Shared/DialogScenes/Raelag_DSU :).

Markel The Imperor, thank you!

Unfortunately, the developers didn't give the footman Raialag any combat animations. Therefore, it won't be possible to use him as a hero :(.

Damn, I forgot all the scripts in a year. Can you tell me the function that sets the initial resources for a player?

Dude, I forgot all the scripts in a year.
Can you tell me the function that sets the initial resources for a player?
SetPlayerStartResources(4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
The first number is the player number, and the rest are the resources themselves.
