Hi!

I want a unit to change its arrow types to burning arrows if it is attacking a building. Is that possible?

Yes
1- Give unit orb of fire ability and change targets to buildings
modify model of orb of fire missle

Note: You cannot change missle speed (Afaik)

2- Make targets of Attack 1 to Organic
and Attack 2 to Buildings-Mechanical
Configure Attack 2 as you want

I would give the unit 2 attacks and both enable them.

The first attack will be the normal attack that can target ground units and air units, w/e u want but remove the building.
This attack will have a normal arrow as model.

The second attack will be to attack buildings.
So change the target to buildings and buildings only.
Change the model to a burning arrow and that's it.

Just remember to enable both attacks. ^^ Good luck with w/e u are goign to use this for. =:)

First attack doesn't hit buildings.
Second attack hits buildings.

Change the missile model, and enable both attacks.
