  I want to create a spell that spawns a unit with 20% of the casters HP and 20% of the Attack damage. I will need to set the Hp and Damage with a trigger.

  (This would be for both effects, units, actors, upgrades and in general all data values)

  I saw it done with custom script, but I dont remember how it worked.

  I asume having a trigger with local variables for the type, name, field and value to change instead of changing the custom script.

  @Demtrod: Go

  You can set a units life with triggers easily- "Set/Modify Unit Property (Life)".

  To change attack damage, I would just apply a buff that reduces all attack damage by 80%. You should not need to change the data values themselves- although you can by using "Catalog field value set".

  You could also go the more complicated route with catalogs. Which I would recommend if you plan to try to change a lot of data values via triggers.
