Catch right click order (smart) on a target unit but let my ordered unit move on

[Barade]

Hey,
I am trying to create tanks in my map which automatically fire on locked targets while driving.
I am not using the phoenix ability since it picks random targets?
The player can cast a lock target ability and order to move on units etc. which locks them as targets as well.
The problem is that when the player moves the tank on a unit I want to store it as target unit (which already works) but not the tank to move to the target unit but continue to move in its original direction.
Is it somehow possible to cancel the change of movement direction but still catch the order to the unit?

Maybe it would work to re-order with last order when catching the smart-click on a target? There's a LastOrder library by Rising_Dusk: LastOrder - Wc3C.net

Hm I could try. Besides, is there any way to create the lock target ability based on channel which does also not cancel the current order? So you can mark the target with the ability and the tank moves on. Probably, it would work the same way with the last order library?

I believe you cant

Thx it works storing the last orders like smart and move with target points/units etc. and restoring them when the ability or smart order takes place. The current order is replaced immediately
