Custom Unit Training

[†ALPHA†]

I'm working on a fairly basic campaign and am using custom models. I tried writing a trigger that would train and "group" a custom unit for the computer opponent. The trigger fails to train the custom unit, however. I've read that the AI editor (which I've never used) is the only way to use custom races, but I want to highly control who and when the computer trains and attacks - I don't want it "doing its own thing".

This is my code:

Training
    Events
        Time - Elapsed game time is 5.00 seconds
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit - Order Barracks 0012 <gen> to train/upgrade to a Man-at-Arms
        Unit Group - Add (Trained unit) to StormwindAttackers

Coincidentally, when the event was a periodic time it wouldn't work at all - even with a standard unit (footman). Your help on both my issues would be greatly appreciated!

I think this is what you need ;

Barracks
    Events
        Time - Every 5.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit - Order <Barrack's #> to train/upgrade to a Man-at-Arms

Barracks gain
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Add (Trained unit) to <StormWindAttackers>

you could directly deduct gold and create the unit instead of training if thats applicable
