Bounties

Okay. I find it VERY annoying to trigger-enhanced custom spells with damage. One reason, you don't get bounty!

So, here's what I did. I changed each unit's point value to their bounty. If the unit dies, the point value is added through triggers.

My questions are;

1) Is it possible to SOMEHOW retrieve the point value, using JASS or any other kind of WE modification?

2) How can you create custom WE actions in the GUI?
I don't want to include the IF statement every time(If unit is dead then do this, if unit is a hero then add 125 gold(heroes need their point value to something else, I can therefore not use the normal method, though their bounty is fixed to 125 so that's not much of a problem)).

EDIT: Oops, this was meant to be in the JASS/AI forum actually. can someone move this, unless you feel it's appropriate in the map dev forum...

Why not base the ability off of an existing ability that already does damage, then just enhance it to do the other effects?

Because there are no proper base spells for this ability... Don't bother to ask me which kind of ability please... Instead, could you try to answer my questions?

I'm not sure if it's what you're asking, but I believe you can get to the point value of a unit right in the triggers. For example:

Actions
- Set some_integer = (Unit - Point-Value of Unit [Dying Unit])

Could you read my post please? I said I have already set it to the point value, and I know how to retrieve the point values, I'm an experienced triggerer.

What I don't know is how you create custom GUI actions or if you somehow can access bounties from triggers.

Um the way your *meant* to do it is when a unit will be killed by the trigger, you create a hidden unit for the caster that then kills the unit thus giving the correct bounty and experience.
