The HP board... what now?

I saw that element_5 made a little example of the HP board. I found it, but it only solved most of the problem.

I'm actually making a "just for fun" map related to Warchasers. But, here's the thing, I don't want the wisps health on the board, I want the hero's HP chosen afterwards.

The heroes are chosen, basically by a triggered charm ability(I could just use charm, but I don't think it works on heroes). So, instead of making a "copy", you actually get to take the hero, and etc. etc. etc.

Can someone help? :(

Here's his little example. He will be given credit, even though I don't plan on releasing anything I make.

If I'm being kind of confusing, just say so, I'll try to clear it up. I'm sleepy right now.

Howdy ^_^ I came upon this thread (and your PM) when I visited these boards on a whim today (I haven't been active here in ages). I've attached a map that answers all the PM questions and to answer your question here: Check out the "Get Hero Info" trigger in my map. You just need to add these lines from that trigger to your trigger that selects the Hero:
Code:
Set unitHero[intNumHeros] = (Picked unit)
Set intNumHeros = (intNumHeros + 1)
Change (Picked Unit) to whatever is appropriate for your trigger. Also, be sure to disable the "Get Hero Info" trigger. Hope this helps!

PS: For those not familiar with the original "HP Board.w3x" I made, it was back before there were any Multiboard triggers in the GUI (standard, not UMSWE etc.). In this new version, I have redone the multiboard trigger using the GUI and seperated it into a "Create" and "Update" trigger. Also changed is that the HPs change color now at 4 different percentages (definable with two variables): Fine (50%-100% HP), Wounded (25%-49% HP), Critical (1%-24% HP), and Dead (0 HP). You all should check it out :god_help_us:

Glad I could help ^_^ Don't worry about the rep points, I'm not sure how long I'm even going to be here ;) And anyway, I've never needed an incentive to help people. I was doing it for free back before there was such a thing as Reputation points. If you need anything else, let me know.
