Maybe some use of a timely town portal spell?

Actually you can just use the SetObjectPosition() function, if the position you set is covered by a town , the hero will be send into the town automatically .

Thanks, but the problem is that I need the enemy hero to instantly return to where he was after the battle, if the player is defeated.

Just can't check all the functions right now. my suggestion is:

set a region under the town which you want to have a seige.use the GetObjectInRegion() function to check the hero(the attacker) after the battle, if the player is defeated, the function will return nil, you can use a script like this:

if GetObjectInRegion( regionname,OBJECT_HERO ) == nil then
  SetObjectPosition( enemyheroname, x,y,floorID);
end;

maybe it works.

copy pasting on the map?

hi
i made a map, but failed to save it half way through, so i ended up with half a map.
i then restarted a new map, for some forsaken reason. i dont remember. but i made the other half of the first map i made on a new file.
sonow i ended up with half a map on each file.
scratch scratch! idiot.
so, is there a way to copy paste the tiles from file one over to file two?
thanks

Unfortunately, I seriously doubt it is possible to copy tiles from one map to another. But then there's always a chance of being wrong, however small it may be.

Objects could be copied even manually if there's no copy-paste ability between maps, but the tiles can't.

But you always got a 2'nd chance..... in your game folder you got:
/Editor/H5MMods/++++
in that subfolder you'll find all your maps (that you either have made or looked at in editor....)
so if you messed up go look there

Something like View -> Map Properties Tree (I don't remember for certain)

Then search in the table of values on the left for the "Objectives" one.

++++ should be replaced with your map's name. Or do you mean you don't have "H5MMods"?

oh, okay. anyway, i didnt loose any files. i made two seperate files, and want to merge them together.

the folder ++++ (replace with your map name) has the files for each map but that's got nothing to do with copy/pasting from one map to another has it?

unless i could edit the bin file, and oher files, and copy paste code between them, but thats unlikely to happen

1. You just set it normally as far as I know, but of course, you have to set a player to human as well.

2. It's a bug. Just set the teams, and never check that Tab again. It is displayed wrongly every time after you set them.

3. Yes you need a script

4. I think you can use a "default" objective as well, but for sure you can do this with scripts (if there's no default objective like that)

You have to modify the "Parameters" and add a link to your hero there.

I found a strange thing that sometimes you can go across the tiles where you already put  MASK on them. didnt know why, has anybody met the same problem before?
