Cruisin' on that LSD

i want a trigger i saw a while ago that uses sprites that follow your character to increase attack, and can they follow just a normal unit?

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Preplaced disabled unit sprites have no collision boxes, so they can walk on top of eachother. They follow units much like a burrowed unit follows another unit, or even a location follows a unit.

I'm not sure if they will walk underneath units with collision boxes, though, since I know stacked zerg units behaved similarly, and the stacked units really didn't like non-stacked ones. However, they behave much like burrowed units. If you move them to the unit, they will move underneath them. If you order them to the unit, they will try to go around the unit.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
