Warpgate rally point question

Hmmm. Thanks for that info. I think my SC2 may be broken :P

But, TRD where did you get this map?

Umm... My units that are rallied from being warped-in never attack unless I use a followup Attack-move command. They only move from point A to point B. The rally point in this specific situation only works as a Move command. From regular production rallies apart from WG, the rally point works as Attack-Move, not for WG, though from my personal experience.

works for me

Awesome! Thanks guys

Yeah I think my SC2 is broken because my units never attack T_T they only move...

Thanks for the map, Gradius

Holding down shift lets you skip the wait time on your key repeat setting, and it feels better/more smooth for me anyway. Good point though, I do forget that key repeats count in SC2.

Excellent point. I find that the "key repeat" takes a while to activate. Does anyone know how I could change this? Would it be in the windows settings?

Also, here is how I do it:
S > shift +click click click... > ctrl-select > shift+2 (assign to army) > tell army to attack-move, which I'm doing routinely when I'm rallying units to my army anyways.

I do this mostly by habit, but now that I think about it, it makes sense:
-hitting shift+S won't have any impact on the S function until you start clicking. Shift+S > Click, is the same as S > Shift + Click
Which means that'll you'll have your two fingers occupied during that time, instead of just one (the shift key).
-there is no confusion between the rally (attack-move) and the move command. If my reinforcements are getting intercepted, they'll only engage if I'm telling my whole army to engage (say if the opponent is between my army and my reinforcements). Otherwise, I'll be telling my army to "move", so my reinforcements will do the same.

The only ability that is available to a unit warping in is a rally point (if you select the unit). It does not attack-move or move. The confusion between them is purely because of semantics (and possibly because move and rally are both right-click commands). They move, therefore move can be used (using a dictionary definition). They attack anything they encounter while moving, so attack-move can also be used. The simple fact is, it is a rally point.

Well put. You must have a bug protoswarrior... which is extremely odd... how could that be the only glitch you've had lol : )
