Is it possible to make "Targets allowed" work on units (allied,player units,natural,friend,enemy) , i think it works only on abilities...
I want to make unit unable to attack natural or allied (not making it with trigger)
i don't understand why all targets allowed work on abilities and not on units too that sucks....

Yes they do suck, although they do allow some customizability (like units unable to hit flying or only able to hit air) they seem to function pretty randomly and enexpectedly. Some spells are more customizable than others, allowing near full control over the targets while others just refuse any targets with the slightest changes. It is advisable to test out every ability or unit who's targets allowed are changed to make sure they behave as expected as a common bug I see in maps is spells refusing to axcept valid targets.

The early versions of parasite were plagued with this bug where some alien forms were usless as their spells refused to cast on allies.
