Problem with Unit - Issue Order Targeting a Point Actions.

I have this wierd problem when I tell units to Attack-Move somewhere.

After I issue an order for a unit to move from point A to B, the unit goes to point B but then goes back home after a few seconds automatically.

IF its a really long distance the unit wont even get to point B but will instead go home before it even gets there all the way.

Someone gave me an idea on another forum of using the "unit leaves region" event to trap a creep where I want it, and that does work but I'd like to not have to do this for multiple reasons.

Anyone have some suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Use the action "AI - Ignore Unit Guard Position"

or simply after that add the action:

Unit - issue order with no target


"Order Unit to Hold Position"

Thanks element S, it works good now.

btw, Ordering a unit to hold position(or stop) doesn't work either. They still go back to where they were created after issue that command for some reason.

The workaround until now i had was the Move(instantly) command which did work.
