Is there a way to add a delay to given orders? Like is there a way to, when a unit is given an order (move, attack, stormbolt, whatever), delay the order, making the unit wait for a second, and then accepting the order?

EDIT: Second question, now that I think of it.

Is it possible to make a hero a structure, or visa versa? In other words can you have hero/structure hybrids?

Sure just make the hero into a structure. Give it a pathing (or not). Make sure to put (Is a Building - True) and your done! But no you cannot make a normal unit into a hero or vica versa.

As for that do you mean, As in a player giving an every day order? Or Triggering a Unit to do something? For the second use a Wait in the trigger for the first well ask someone else Im horrible with triggers.

About the delay, pause the unit and unpause when you will need its orders.

in the Gameplay Constants there is a field called:
Reaction Delay (sec) Maximum - 0.25
ive always used it to cap down the reaction though and atleast i think it works.
could be just imaginary though.

:o

Well I'll try it.

Problem: Cant use hero abilities?

EDIT: Never mind, I can USE them but I cant edit the field when its a building. Strange.
