The trigger works like this:

Player 24.png


It also works when using any of the 24 players.


But it doesn't work when I use neutral hostile, neutral victim, neutral extra or neutral passive. Example:

Please help me if you can, I really want to make it work with neutral extra or any of the other neutral teams.

I'll elaborate more about my first post:

The trigger doesn't work because the units return to the position they were when they were trained, rather than going to a random point in Honor Hold region. This happens on the neutral teams, as I explained above, and doesn't happen with the 24 players. I think it might be an AI related issue, but I don't know how to fix it, don't even know anything about AI.

I didn't understand you. Could you please elaborate more?
I believe he meant these actions:

  • Actions
    • AI - Ignore <Your Unit>'s guard position <- AI - Ignore Unit Guard Position
    • AI - Ignore the guard positions of all <Player> units <- AI - Ignore All Unit Guard Position

Pick one that better matches your needs. I can't say if these work because I haven't been able to replicate the issue.

The Ignore AI position is usually the fix for this issue. Are you 100% positive you're using it correctly? Also, use the Event Response (Triggering unit) instead of Leaving/Entering unit and try adding a small Wait (0.00 seconds) before you issue the order.

  • Events:
  • Unit - A unit enters Playable map area
  • Conditions:
  • Owner = Neutral
  • Actions:
  • AI - Ignore AI Guard Position for Triggering Unit

I tried this three but the results are the same; it works momentarily, then, after a couple of seconds, the units always return to the position they were when they were trained.

Some possible fixes:
  • Change the training structure's Rally point.
  • Create the Neutral units for a non-Neutral player and then manually Change their Owner to Neutral.
  • Order the (Triggering unit) to cast an ability at the Random point instead. You can use a modified Channel ability for this.
  • Only Ignore the unit's guard position once. Maybe multiple times is causing problems.
  • In the Gameplay Constants, adjust the Creeps Camp Guard Distance.

Some possible fixes:
  • Change the training structure's Rally point.
The units always return to a position near the building where they were trained.


  • Create the Neutral units for a non-Neutral player and then manually Change their Owner to Neutral.

The triggers are already set up like that.

The units return near the building without even casting it.

The units detect me in a different range, but everything is the same.
