Arghhhhhh i need help!!

i need to know, how can i do it, so when i use an item from a shop... it then allows you to create a certain unit in the barrakcs Ect.

for example...

if say i use an item called Train Taurens... when u use this item, it allows you to create taurens at your barracks.

tnx in advcne

make the item usable (like a potion), create a reaserch named "Train Taurens", and create a trigger:

event - a unit uses an item
condition - item type of (manipulated item) = (Tauren research item)
actions - set research level of (Train Taurens) to 1 for owner of (triggering unit)
(i think triggering unit will work)

if this works, dont say thank you in a post. say it by doing what my sig says.

dont base it off a healing item, use a different item type, i.e a haste scroll and set the duration to .01.

or you could use a tome that doesn't increase stats because tomes are used as soon as picked up

somewhere in the object editor, there is a field that says 'Show on mini map' or something like that. make sure it is false. there are two similiar fields, so make them both none cause I don't know which one does it.
