Hoi, i asked for this skill some time ago but noone could help me, so i try it again.

I got a Hero ( got the German version so don't know the name of the graphic model )... which looks like the Defiler in starcraft. The white Scorpion.
I want that Hero to have a 5 level burrow skill. Each level the health regeneration rate while burrowed increases. I'll give 100 points to anyone who can present me the correct trigger. I tried to do it by myself but the result was : "fatal error" ... ... I think u may not use the burrow skill of the cryptfiends cause they got another burrow graphic then the scorpion but i am noob so plz help me ^^

Barbed Arachnathid...

Finishing up final touches. Will post the map in a second.


[edit]
Seem to have found your fatal error...

[Edit2]
Going to test 2 things, at least one should work.

[Edit3]
Yeah, cleaning up the map and I'll post it with instructions.

I havn't got the increased regeneration working, but this will work without a fatal error.

Alright, the increased regeneration is the alternate units regeneration rate, so I'll try to make this hero do that.

[edit]
Thought of a way I might do this. Have to try it...

make the burrow ability a hero ability. Give it 5 levels, then copy your hero 5 times. Change the model file to the picture of burrowed crypt fiend and set perm invisibility and collision to 0. Also remove the attack. Do this to all 5 copies of your ORIGINAL HERO. Then go back to the burrow spell and at each level change the unit that is morphed into. This should work. That's the way I would go about doing it.

The fatal error is caused by morphing a hero into a non-hero unit. That's the issue, so when you copy your hero and just change the model/collision/attack/etc../etc.. and morph into that unit it works :)
