Hi!
I need help with a trigger. I'm modifying a map about White Walkers. What i want is for Night King to have an ability (or two) to select all units in an area and then order them to attack-move to a point. How can i do that? Can someone help, please?

here is a crappy version. is this basically what you want?

(crappy because it is not mui (only one unit on the map can cast this), and the units keep attacking there forever... )

if this is what you want I can make a less lazy version that is MUI and stops... just gimme more details...

I'm assuming this ability is aimed at enemy units (otherwise you don't really need an ability to do this). If that is true - attack-move will only make them attack their enemies. is that what you want?
I really wouldn't need this but i do. It is aimed for my own units. Imagine having hundreds of units and you have to click each one of them individually by 12 only. It is time consuming and a lot of micromanaging. I'm assuming it has to do things with adding all units to unit group with one ability and attack-move the units in the group to a targeted point. Essentially what i want is that the Night King can send all units in an area to attack a certain point.

in that case you just need to change the conditions and you can use the stuff from the map attached to my last post.

Edit: actually it is a lot simpler... the trigger I there constantly sends them to continue attacking (I assumed this was an enemy who otherwise would just counter the order). actually just sending them on a single attack move is even simpler than what is there.

Actually, i just checked and it seems I can't open your map. It says "Unable to load file......Level info data missing or invalid"

EDIT: Actually, nevermind, i figured it out. Then again thanks all for help! :)
