This is getting too complicated. You need to be a programmer, at the very least. The specializations are hardcoded into the program, which, as far as I can tell, isn't even written in Lua.

too bad...

okay, but how can I determine if a unit stack has been destroyed directly in battle? Using the `exist` function? Or some other method?

Update: At least, I found a very interesting folder called RPGstats. You can change almost everything there, including, by the way, some of the hero specializations.

It seems like that's the way to do it. But there's an alternative: the AttackerCreatureDeath (DefenderCreatureDeath) function is called when a creature dies, with the creature's name as an argument. You only need to write the "body" of the function.

function AttackerCreatureDeath(unit)
  ...
end

Aha, that’s how you should have dealt with her. I thought she just killed the monster.

Lua is a scripting language; the program itself is written in another language, like C++.

No matter what platform it's on, we currently only have access to the machine code... I wish they would release the source code soon!

Is there a function that allows you to place a hero in a town or at the town gates from any point on the map?

Конечно. SetObjectPosition.

Sure. SetObjectPosition.

It's based on coordinates. How can I use it to target a town?

SetObjectPosition('hero', GetObjectPosition('town'))
and the hero ends up in the town's garrison if it is empty.

SetObjectPosition('hero', GetObjectPosition('city'))

I tried it this way, but it doesn't work as needed. Is there another way?

It is necessary to teleport through the gates of the enemy city, or into the city itself if it's your city, even from the gate's location.

So, I tried this method, but it doesn't work as expected. Is there another way?

And how does it work?

"City garrison"
"The city itself"
"Portal point"
Which of these is which?

It doesn't work. And the town should never be empty BEFORE the script runs (that's why it's not suitable).

You need to jump into the gates of the enemy city, or into the city itself, if it's your city, even from the gate point.

Then, create an array with the "gate points" at the beginning of the game.

gate_points = {}
function GetGatePoints()
	for i, town in GetObjectNamesByType('TOWN') do
		for j, hero in GetObjectNamesByType('HERO') do
			if IsHeroInTown(hero, town, 1, 0) then
				local x, y, z = GetObjectPosition(hero)
				gate_points[town]={x, y, z}
			end;
		end;
	end;
end;

No way. And the city should never be empty BEFORE the script runs (that's why it doesn't work).

You can remove the hero from that city using the same function.

Here's an example of a specific case: 1) The enemy town is disabled, and the hero is also disabled. 2) Conflux, with the desired parameters set. 3) Enable the hero and the town. 4) Now, a battle needs to be initiated. (The "Make" function doesn't work because it clones the hero in the garrison, even though the hero might not enter the town after capturing it, but instead leave the map – this is a bug). Can the parameters be set before the event triggers? For example: During the conflux with the town, but before entering it? How can you enter the gates if someone is already inside the town?
