Ok, is it possible for a computer, who is allied to you using triggers
(not preserved), to "fight back" at you if you decide to attack a computer unit?

The unit you attack will fight back.

Odd, because when I attacked an allied computer unit it did nothing but sit there and take it...

Maybe because it's a unit that doesn't attack, like...a Terran Civilian?

Do you think I would have noticed if it was a Terran Civilian not fighting back? It's a hero Marine, just by the way.

The shoot back phenomenon Killer_Kow(MM) described only applies to neutral units.

you have it mixed up. Neutral units DON'T attack you, allied ones will. only the ones close enough to have 'witnessed' the attack however, and if you run far away emough, the 'forget' about it and go back to normal.

If it doesnt work for you, just use a trigger if in this map you have to fight back at your allied comp.

That's exactly what I thought, but, for some reason, the computers aren't fighting back at me. disgust.gif disgust.gif

EDIT:
Could this problem I'm experiencing have anything to do with the fact that the computer is allied with triggers to me? If so, how can I avoid the problem?

I know they should fight back but for some reason they are not.. ranting.gif

Do you have to in this map?

If so if he's allied, like everyone said, he'll for sure attack you.

If he's neutral, set player to enemy? tongue.gif
