That is what i am trying to do, the Effect - target with an issue order, but i ran into a problem where when i issue order to build, the units runs to the location and does nothing!
Nydus canal thing helped some, but i want the range of the effect to be 0 so the unit has to go up to it, but can only go so far to place it. I would use a validator but i dont see anywhere on the build ability to do that
Trying to create a building with a limited range, I've figured out how to limit and range and create a unit within that range, but i'd like the building to spawn under construction. when i use create unit effect it spawns already complete.
Must of been really tired cus this doesn't work like I want. The above solution doesn't spend the charge until the unit reaches it's destination, this means if you re-cast it before reaching that point, you can go past it. This is unwanted :(
Make an Ability of type Effect-target
then make two effects one of type Set
another of type Issue Order
Set Issue Order to move
Set "Set" effect to target unit/points
make sure both effect share the same marker link
last, link the ability effect to the set and the set effect to the order :D
Is there any way to add charges to the move ability, or make a new ability that works like move that I can add charges to.
I'm trying to make a unit only able to move once until a later time, I've tried using triggers to disable move, but this doesn't work unless I used wait for unit to become idle. This allows you to still cast move while the unit is moving. Adding charges would be the easiest way, but I can't figure out how to make it have charges!
could be several problems, check and make sure the scan setting for the weapon the unit is using are set right some things to look for are minimum scan range. If this is set low may cause units to not attack. Range set to zero might cause no attacks. also make sure your weapon scan filters are not conflicting. The most likely problem is weapon scan filters. If you set it to have no scan filters they should try to attack anything that is set in target filters, since you say your units can attack when you specifically click attack then tell them to attack it the target filters should be ok.
Hope this helps, also maybe you could help me figure out how you got them to not attack like that. I want exactly what you have!
I tried this by changing Progress to .001, but it didn't have any effect on the building. Is it a different one? I figure Morph has to do with one unit changing and Progress has to do with building time Spawn is for larve time i guess maybe Queueable?

had someone suggest that i use a pylon type effect on the unit, this works just how i'd like :D

figured out a solution to this problem using triggers.
All i have to do it turn baracks or whatever the building unit is paused state On trigger looks like this
Turn Unit Paused state On
This halts the production and still allows you to queue up more units

tried this, turns out that contaminate doesn't quite do what i want either.
when you disable queue and train it doesn't allow you to click to build more units
I want it to be able to click to train units, but they dont actually train so i can adjust their training time using triggers
