hey, i need to set priorities for attack, when unit a and unit b are both in range of unit c.

I want to be able to make it so unit c will kill unit a before starting to attack unit b.

Is this 'stata - priority' in the unit editor?
If so, the higher number the higher priority, so the higher, the more chance to get attacked when another unit is near?

thanks.

i'm afraid i'm not sure what you mean.

I have not triggered any of those attacks.
In other words, when a unit stands before an enemy building, and an enemy unit, what makes it decide to attack either one first?

I've always wondered how the priority thing worked, too...

Is it the higher or lower the number, the more chance the unit will be attacked?

Basically. For example, you start slashing at a barracks with an uncommanded footman. Another footman pops out, and the two will automatically start slashing at each other. Not only is it logic, but there is a priority in that. I'm not sure, but priority can also have stuff to do with AI and formation ranking
