This can only be done individually one by one I'm affraid.

However you can create LUA scripts to create several units inside the object editor at the same time by using loops and such to define the units.

But I doubt it will be a lot faster then doing it manually.

Here is a tutorial on LUA Object Generation:

Other then that, if you are copying units from one map to another you can always use the Object Merger inside JNGP.

EDIT: hey sonofjay ^.^ I see you are faster then me :D

It's a modified version of the world editor which has extended a lot of functionality in contraire to the standard world editor.

Yeah I'm faster than you :psmile:,

I suggest doing it manually than doing a Lua script, since learning it will also take lots of time. But if you're planning to store the knowledge for future use, then feel free to read the link Hashjie posted.

Actually if you get pretty skilled in using LUA it might actually improve the speed of your work flow by a miniscule amount.
Which is not bad I suppose.
