marshall	Event: unit begins research Condition: researched tech type is X Action: cancel research Is this possible? And if so, how? Thus far, I can't see any way to do it.

It would be better to order the building to cancel.

Cancel of researches, training and constructing is an orderid. You first

for example:

Quote:

Script code
constant function OrderIdCancel takes nothing returns integer
return 851796
endfunction
function IssueCancelOrder takes unit whichUnit returns boolean return IssueImmediateOrderById(whichUnit, OrderIdCancel())
endfunction

Quote:

Custom Script: call IssueCancelOrder(GetTriggerUnit())
