How about making a trigger that spawns units at the position of your building and then just order them to move to where-ever you want them to go?

This requires that you make a new variable (point) and then set the variable to the point of your building. Then make a new trigger with the event "Every (your time) seconds" and as Action you just create units at the variable point.

When they are spawned, clear the point (by making a custom script call RemoveLocation(udg_your-variable-name). Now set the variable to a new point (the place you want your units to go to) and make a action that orders the units to move to the variable point.

Once again, when they have moved, clear the variable to it can be used again.
I hope you understand how I mean If not, PM me and I'll show you by

I was unable to get them working. is it possible for me to send you my map beta, and you could try to put triggers onto it.
this is providing to be alot of trouble basicly i want the baracks on the human side to auto build a unit if its not already doing it, same with the graveyard on the zombie side

How can you not understand a spawn system...

1. Make units.
2. Order made units to somwhere.
3. Repeat with some delay.

Which step is giving you problems?

 

[ZKAmedic]

at super good, the whole thing preety much, i need the fastest possible system with the less lag, basicly i can figure out how to trigger a building to build a unit then attack move that unit to the enermy base.
i dont want the unit to just spawn, i want it to be built.

 

[mckill2009]

OK give me your beta map & I will explain with the best I can...

if you really want AI for your map, then I can do that too but it needs triggering as well...

In that case you just order the building to build the unit (I believe you issue the unit type ID to the building to start the unit). You should have this eithor on the unit finishes training event or as a perodic event to assure continious building.
When the building finishes training a unit (event), order the trained unit to attack move to some position (you choose where that position is).
