First, you need one of the special editors. Then, you just use the action: Run AI script 'Set Junkyard Dog' at 'Location'

That's for moving randomly. If you want to force them to move somewhere, you'd use the Issue Order action.

When you put the computer onto the Junkyard Dog AI script, be sure not to give it the preserve trigger action especially if you would have Hyper Triggers running. If you were to do that then you would have the units running around like they were on drugs or something...

Uhhhhh Wrong if he doesn't use preserve it will only work for like 3 seconds if that.

What do you mean? They will continue to walk around just fine, I know so because I used it in Random Quest RPG, and it worked just fine without a Preserve Trigger, if you preserve the trigger they will change directions every trigger cycle.

Where did you get that idea? That's definitely not the case. If the unit is moved by a trigger or something you have to reuse the Junkyard Dog script, I believe, but if it's not touched by triggers it'll run around randomly FOREVAR.

It's in SCMDraft and about any other editor except StarEdit.

You don't download triggers, they are already built in.

You can get SCM Draft here.

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
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
