Tower wont attack ground,need help

Ok, I'm very good at triggers cause I know some programming. However, this doesn't meant that i understand all of the fields that you can set for the units in the editor.

I dont understand the field for the units in the unit editor "Targets Allowed" if i choose just "Ground" and then use the "Attack Ground" trigger to make the unit attack the ground, the unit won't attack the ground.

My Problem:
I need a custom tower unit that will only attack the ground, and does kills units that are in the are that the tower attack. Its for a maze; I'm having problems getting the tower to attack the ground and do damage to units in the area the tower attacked. Can someone help me.

hehe, well, it doesn't work that way.
Ground, means ground UNITS.
to allow a unit to attack ground, give it the attack-type 'Siege'.
Then, you can order it to attack-ground somewhere with triggers, that way it will not target units, but only attack ground as you ordered.

Goodluck.

Attack ground is made with the Missles type- "Artillery" field. Note this will make killed unit explode

There should be a way to remove your own topic, if you have had your problem solved.
