Ability issued order Destroyer Form won't work for Neutral units.

On a certain point in my trigger I want an Obsidian Statue to use Destroyer Form. This does not happen if the unit is neutral. I figured that neutral units do not have gold/food, so I reduced these to 0. Still nothing. I've also tried to --> Add ability Destroyer Form before the issued order, but this doesn't seem to work either.

Is there ANY way to get a Neutral Hostile unit to use Destroyer Form, or must I trigger my way around it somehow?

Thanks for all help.

hmnn, do you really need Destroyer Form though? can't you just use some morph ability like medivh's crow form?

Do the neutral units have the destroyer upgrade??

And play the crumbling animation with a special effect instead? Will that work or look good?

I have no idea.

Did you check out for upgrades like moyack said?

I don't think you can manipulate upgrades for Neutral at all. Shouldn't there be a "Requires upgrade: TRUE" or something easy somewhere

My suggestion is to make a copy of this ability without the upgrade requirement.

of course you can. Naga are technically neutral.

No, not with the normal tools. The list under scenario->upgrades displays only players 1 through 12, not neutrals.

Any Ideas?

use trigger editor may be?

That is a lame limitation with map settings. Anyways, you can use a trigger at map initialization to do the research for Neutral hostile.

It finally works. Thanks a lot everyone.

Although that may not be my last question.
