Can you name a system or link me to one please?

Order issued equal to attack?

This only works once the unit quires the order...a unit can continue on fighting without any additional attack orders...I need some way of checking if a unit is currently attacking.

You can check if your unit takes damage. If he does then he's in battle/combat.

you can try comparing the current order string to "attack" if you just mean autoattacking

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Current order of (Picked unit)) Equal to (Order(attack))
      • Then - Actions
      • Else - Actions

but by "in combat" if you mean like in MMO's where certain abilities cannot be used "in combat" then you would have to check if any other units are attacking your picked unit. Or if the other units do more than just attack, you would have to put the unit on an "aggro list" or some unit group variable and remove it after like 10 seconds of not taking damage. Thats how the blink dagger works in DotA.
