Modifying the orc burrow ability

I modified the battle stations abil so that the unit code read "nbal" for nightelf ballista instead of "opeo" for orc peon. Unfortunately when I try to activate ingame it says that there are no nearby peons :( Has anyone sucessfully modified this abil and if so, how?

When I changed it I modified the Load ability (Sloa) to accept a particular unit type (in my case hrif) and used that to load the burrow instead. If you do use Load you'll also want to change the range from 99999 to something more reasonable.

u need to send them manually in, cause the auto-button will order the real peons i think

If you use Sloa what will make it shoot out? What abilities exactly make up the effect of units going into a burrow and shooting out?

I had the same problem for a map a while back, my solution is this. Chances are you are not going to need both the burrow and chaos burrow, you take either one of the peons and change the units. I tried to use slk files to make it accept my own custom units but it didnt like it.

I suppose that could work. I don't need either peon or burrow.
