"AbilityDefinitionIllidanMetamorphosis" doesn't work

[DoctorRyner]

It simply doesn't work if I set alternative form that way, maybe we need to create a simple morphing preset like with channel?

@compiletime function morphGen ()
    new AbilityDefinitionIllidanMetamorphosis (morphId)
        ..presetNormalFormUnit    (_ -> heroId.toString ())
        ..presetAlternateFormUnit (_ -> heroId2.toString ())
        ..presetCooldown          (_ -> 5)
        ..presetDurationHero      (_ -> 2)
        ..presetDurationNormal    (_ -> 0.5)

Specify "doesn't work" 😐 .

If heroId is an int, .toString() is simply wrong. Check the generated output.

presetAlternateFormUnit is lambda (int -> string), how should I convert that then?

[Frotty]

IdGenerators return ints and if you write int i = 'h000' it is quite obvious that i is an int. Single quotes in jass and wurst are just base 256 ints (with some restrictions) to have more recognizable format. int.toString() returns the numerical representation in base 10 e.g. 34123974, not base 256.

---

Use int.toRawCode() or even better commaList from the ObjectIds package, the second supporting a variable amount of arguments, returning a comma separated list of ids used for e.g. normal spells, built structures, etc.

..presetNormalFormUnit    (_ -> commaList(heroId))

There are also examples on the doc pages https://wurstlang.org/stdlib/unit_objed

Thank you, that works perfect! Im just not used to these low level things, we in Haskell include something like this in a type level :)
