Alright so I'm making an installation map with triggers and stuff. I've got all but two of the available players on my force. I'm player 2, player 3 is neutral (and it has the unit I'm trying to order) Player 1 and 7 are on the enemy force and the rest are rescuable. Basically what I want to happen is my units come across a group of rescuable civilians who then get attacked by the enemy. I've gotten this down by switching who controls what so I end up with just the civilians while my squad is traded to a neutral player (temporarily). What I want to have happen is the neutral player 3 has a Zeratul that I'm trying to order to the location of the ambush to slaughter the enemy (Blizzard did something similar in some campaigns I think). The order gets the Zeratul there but he doesn't attack. If I switch that player to human or rescuable I can't give the order. If I put him to comp and in another force he attacks my guys. Any ideas how to fix this? A speedy reply would be much appreciated.



None.

Neutral units won't attack anything.

You need to give Zeratul to a computer player and use the "Set Alliance Status" trigger action to set player 2 as it's ally, and players 1 and 7 as enemies.

Worked like a charm! Thanks a lot man! I'm making this for someone and I was starting to worry I wouldn't finish it in time.



None.

it's rather inconvenient actually, as it requires you to transfer it to Custom Score which might even interfere with what you're measuring. But IIRC you can also use EUDs to display it which by now could actually be somewhat convenient.
