Work In Progress / Re: Dumb questions from a would-be modder

« on: August 24, 2015, 06:10:55 am »

Mind if I slip in a dumb question? I've found a few places that make it sound like you should be able to define unit type for zombification. However, when I try to define 'zombieUnit' as something other than 'STR_ZOMBIE' I get a crash to desktop. For example, 'zombieUnit: STR_SNAKEMAN_LEADER' causes a ctd. Defining my own unit type doesn't seem to help either. Do you need to define something extra in order to spawn a unit as a zombie?
