A) Please place it in tags like so:

• Untitled Trigger 003 Copy Copy 2
• Events
• Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting an object
• Conditions
• ((Triggering unit) is in RedDefence) Equal to True
• Actions
• Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Hold Position

B) I don't see anything in here that would cause a problem...

• Untitled Trigger 003 Copy Copy 2
• Events
• Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting an object
• Conditions
• ((Triggering unit) is in RedDefence) Equal to True
• Actions
• Trigger - Turn off (This Trigger)
• Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Hold Position
• Trigger - Turn On (This Trigger)

you used

• Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Hold Position

and that fired an event, creating infinite loop.

well, is Hold Position a Order targeting an object? no?

 

[Eleandor]

isn't "Hold Position" a no-target order? could be wrong, but I think it will NOT fire the event...

Check if the triggering unit is actually in the UnitGroup variable... really, make ABSOLUTE sure you added the unit to the group, because I've once tried fixing a trigger for 30 minutes before I noticed my unit group was still empty...

Just test my trigger and you'll see.

I do not doubt your trigger fixes it, I just don't see why exactly, assuming hold position is a no-target order...
