Attack When In Range?

[The Twilight]

I'm having trouble finding out how to make a unit, attack another unit when in range. For example, take for instance the DotA mod:

A sentinel solider walks down the road, comes within range of a ghoul, and then attacks it without having a player commanding it to.

In my mod, however, when a pack of Footmen stroll down the road, they completely ignore the incoming Grunts.

Any help?

Order them to attack-move, not move. They will auto-attack then.

Use:

• Unit - Order <Unit> to Attack-Move To <Area>

Instead of

• Unit - Order <Unit> to Move To <Area>

You can also order units to Attack-move in the game by clicking on Attack order button while having a unit selected, and order it attack an area on the ground, not a unit.

The unit with attack-move order will move to its destination, engaging in fight with any enemies it encounters on its way.
