Make units move as a group?

[Karzama]

Hi

I was wondering how I would get some computer units to move as a group rather than having them all split of as soon as they got the command. Any ideas?

Something like this:

• Unit Group - Order (Units in (Playable map area)) to Move To (Center of (Playable map area))

Are you sure that they will stay as a group if I use that? Other occasions they've just split away from eachother and things

You can try selecting all the picked units via triggers, ordering them, then deselecting if my first solution doesn't work by itself.

I'm not too sure how well it would work on neutral players, though.

I'll try it in a bit. Just wondered as I'm making a campaign and want them to send groups of units rather than trails of units.

Cheers though!!

Ah, you mean you want them to walk in some formation? Wc3 has it as default, just sometimes units get messed up and break formation, usually when the passage is too thin.

There's an AI Editor, about waves, attacking group, wave of group, and there's an ITE condition too.

Is there a trigger to move the created group with the slowest unit's movement (not losing movement speed but going with front melee and behind the ranged, like a player could do)?

^ I don't know if there is, and I think it is warcraft III default. You can toggle their formation movement by pressing ( Alt+F ) so that the melee units will be form in the front and ranged units in the back,

I want a computer owned units to form it, how can I force the computer player to press "Alt" and "F" at the same time?
