I want to have some kind of a moving bunker, an Armored Personnel Carrier really, that carries units around. The transport part is easy, but the problem comes when I want the units to be able to fire when the transport is moving. The bunker uses an ability called "Attack Redirect" which I don't really understand, but it only works when the transport is stopped. Any ideas?
EDIT: Also, a side question, where exactly do you set the point that the unit fire comes out of on the bunker? I assume it's some sort of attach point?

Copy the attack redirect ability, give it to the bunker (instead of the normal one), then change its "allowed movement" to "Moving."
One of those bosses hero siege had one, can't remeber it's name though...
It was a herkules who could summon troops into itself, and they was the only way to him to attack...
It is possible, maybe you should try changing a carry ability instead of the bunker ability?
The bunker does, in fact, use a transport ability. The redirect attack allows the units inside to attack.
As for hero wars, could you give me a link? Doesn't have to be a download page, just the place where I can find a description, etc.

Yes. It's either on the bunker's actor, or on the actor of each unit that can enter a bunker (probably the latter).

Attack Redirect isn't exactly an "attack," it's listed as type "redirect target," so it doesn't have that field. Any other thoughts, ideas?

No one has any other idea? Can someone at least tell me if it's possible or not?
