Guest | Is there anyway to get a peon to repair buildings other than Orc structures? I need him to repair human buildings but its just not working. I have a map which uses buildings from the humans, undead, orc, and night elves so getting him to repair the buildings is something I can't do without. I know its possible by editing .slk files but is it possible to achieve by just making adjustments in the world editor? Damn the 1.03 patch adjustments for the .slk files!!! :gfu: Why Blizzard Why :gfu: |

Guest | try adding the ability Repair(Human) to the peon? |

Guest | Nope. I tried adding it but the peon still cannot touch any of the other races buildings. Anybody out there have a clue? |

I had the same sort of problem with undead building having to be on blight. I'm pretty sure this sort of thing is hardcoded. :/ |

Try using an acolyte instead (perhaps giving him a peon model if thats important). When i made my TD map i discovered that a peasant (didnt try orc though) couldnt build any undead buildings even if i added restore but the acolyte could make all kinds of buildings and i dont even think i added the other races' repair abilities to him. |

Maybe it's because the workers can only repair buildings they can create? Haven't tested this but it seems to be the case. |

Guest | But my peon can build all of these buildings and he still cannot repair them :( |

But in melee games, aren't workers of every race able to repair/renew/restore yours and your allys' structures? I had peons repairing moon wells, wisps renewing catapults, etc. One melee game I found three different units repairing the same ballista... a wisp, peasant, and acolyte... |

Guest | i remember seeing the same things so what is the deal then? its a chaos peon and he can build things from all four races but cannot repair a damn thing other than orc based structures. I'm sooo frusterated! |

Guest | Mythmon I dont understand what your saying. If I create a custom unit there still is noway to make it repair all three types as the unit can only be one of the four necessary peons. |
