Hello everyone i am here because i am in need of help. I hope this is the right section of the forum. if not spank me :D
So basically i am having problem with Issue Order - order with no target - trigger,
In particular i need a group of sentry/single sentry to use the ability "Guardian Shield" after a paarticuar event (it would be the best if the event is just time elapse)
I've already tried different events (like elapse time, units entering region/point ecc) and lots of combination between event/action but i don't know why those damn sentries just will not use their ability
If you please can tell me how you would do it would be awesome.
NOTE: i am quite familliar with the editor but since i can't figure out the problem it would be the best if someone can help me
showing me how he would do it from the beginning in order to prevent misunderstanding. Just a screenshot with the list of event/actions would be enough-
I hope i was able to explain my self (english is not my main language)
Before you Issue order with no target you need to Set Unit Property >> Energy >> 75 (or greater), because I'm guessing your sentry doesn't have enough energy.
If you don't want it to use energy you can use Create Effect on Unit (From Unit) >> Execute Sentry - Guardian Shield (Create Persistent) on *Your sentry* from *Your sentry*
In particular i need a group of sentry/single sentry to use the ability "Guardian Shield" after a paarticuar event (it would be the best if the event is just time elapse)
If the event doesn't really matter and if you just want to use time elapse, you can easily do so. The 2 questions remaining would be, how to actually issue the order and how to reference this specific group of sentries.
It sounds to me, like you figured out, how to issue the order already, you just don't know exactly, how to reference the group of sentries, correct? If that is the case, you probably want to save those sentries in a variable of type Unit Group. If these sentries are created via trigger, this is easily done by setting a unit group variable to Last Created Unit Group, immediately after the sentries were created. If they are present on the map from the start, you can put them in the group by either picking them individually and use the Add Unit To Unit Group action or use a region and pick all sentries in that region.

I don't know why i haven't think of this!!!!
Thank you both for answering, the problem was the initial energy, so now it's fixed!
Thank you very much <3<3
