On the map, "Fifth Base", there are points that you are not able to move any of your units, like they won't respond, I want to know how to do that. Like with the elevator, the Dropship staying still no matter what.

Is this a trigger only on Starforge, or what? Thank you in advanced.

you have a location centered over the unit and have the unit repeatedly move to that location.

so like this

Trigger 1

Conditions:
- Whatever
Actions:
- Center Location X over Unit X at Location Y
- Preserve Trigger

Trigger 2

Conditions:
- Whatever
Actions:
- Move Unit X at Anywhere to Location X
- Preserve Trigger

that will make the unit keep moving to the location, hyper triggers will help, you could also replace it with the move order command for whatever reason just the main things you need are the center location and the move unit.

you can still do it without the center location, only use it if the unit you want to be stopped can be in various places, but that dropship part, you would only need 1 location for it

If you want it still being capable of being attacked, use the Order trigger. Enemy units will be unable to aquire it as a target if it is just moved there every frame.

Yes, using "move" is very annoying for attackers, but on the downside, using "order" allows for it to be recalled.

pause as in pause game? or pause as in the order command, cause there is none and pause game wouldnt really be that great in a multiplayer game

Yes, the trigger for that is the pause trigger, but it only works in singleplayer.

Ok, I done it like two days ago, right after LordofNukes post, I just didn't have the time to reply. Anyways, I am using a dropship in an area for a the Dropship Inventory selection, they are no way near any danger, so no attack is needed. So question answered...
