Make all units of type target point when ability is cast

[radeonmaster]

I want to create a trigger such that when the player targets a point with an ability, all specified types of units will "attack move" that point.

Basically, I'm trying to make it easier to control large armies. I want to give hero units this "command" ability, so that when it is cast, all units of a certain type, say ranged units or ground units, will attack the point without the user having to locate and micromanage them.

thanks for any help.

Here's the trigger:

• Move Spell
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to 'Your spell'
  • Actions
    • Set GroundGroup = (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) matching ((((Matching unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to False)))
    • Set Temp_Loc = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in GroundGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To Temp_Loc
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Loc)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_GroundGroup)
