- I believe your finding regarding the force effect:
"The Persistent will push/pull the unit(s) repeatedly over a short period of time to cause significant movement."
is partially misleading. Could be due to a change in the map editor since I'm very new to map making - but the force basically orders the units to travel away from the source location, and thus the units can only move as fast as their movespeed allows. Creating a shorter period duration and adding more periods will only help so much as they keep telling the units to move away, whereas applying a higher movespeed will force the units away faster.
At least that portion confused me until I tinkered around a bit. Thanks much for the well written tutorial btw - its application was almost spot on what I was trying to accomplish and so was a perfect starting point.
