I can't get the enemy units in my level to attack the human base. I have Unit Groups, and I use the "attack" mode and the "move" mode to the base, but all they do is sit there.
Help?

You might check a couple of things, like what aggressiveness you've given the Unit Group, whether you've chosen to Ally them with the human side, etc.
Also, the order the actions are put in make a difference. Some actions such as move require ALL units in the group to make it to the area before it is considered complete. Try creating an area a little ways away fom the place you want to attack, like a rally point. Then attack.
Another thing is the specifity of the attack action. If you tell the UG to attack just VTS structures, and the player doesn't own any, then the units will just sit there until the timer runs out. If you want specific targets, then keep the duration short and have alternates. Like, attack Power Generators for 90 seconds, then VTS for another 90. You can check the forever box, and the group will repeat all the actions, forever or until death.
Let me know if this helps.
