[Trigger] Neutral Hostile does not attack Buildings

[bhusta]

The Problem:

When a timer expieres, there will be created a neutral hostile unit. It is ordered to walk and attack to a position of a building. If the unit arrives at that position, it only stays there and does not attack the building, but other non-structure units from the same owner as the building.


What can I do that the created unit attacks that building, too?

Directly issue an attack on the building.

What if there are more than 1 building ?
Does the Neutrals will act on its own after destroying the first building, poor thing (the first building =D)

I see, I have to add more details.

The map is an AOS-type map. There are events like in CW's Cataclysm.

In the picture you can see an event boss unit, which spawned somewhere on the map and walked to a control point (red circle). This control point based on the human farm.

Directly issue an attack on the building.

If I do that, the hydra would not attack any other nearby enemy units.

I want it to do that .


Thanks

It's because of the unit priorities. Just give the building a higher priority (20 max I believe).

It did not work. I tried priorities 0, 6, 9, 20.

I decreased the level of the hydra to 10, but it did not work, too.

Hm... that's weird.

Units will mostly ignore other units if they don't have an attack. So give the building a 0-0 damage attack, and try it out.

Or create a region around the main building. If a unit enters the region, give it a 50% chance to directly attack the building, and a 50% chance to attack-move to the building.

0-0 damage attack worked, thank you so much. This bothered me the whole last week-end

I do not try the second suggestion, because there is the chance that the unit will not attack the building.

Sometimes it does not work, too. I think it has to be something about the blizzard KI ...
