Well, the player has 8 spider mines underneath him, each one representing 1/8th HP.
The actual HP works fine, but I can't seem to get the enemy (P6) to attack the (P8) mines. They are both enemies and sharing vision with each other.
Map is attached.

None.
It could be since you're constantly moving the spider mines under the players, the computers can't attack. Either have them move with a timer or check when none are underneath the player and then move them.
None.
Yeah, make sure you do that, otherwise you might get a bit of a problem where your unit is slowed down as well.
None.
Trigger("Player 1"){
Conditions:
Bring("Player 8", "Vulture Spider Mine", "Mines1", Exactly, 0);

Move Location("Current Player", "Men", "RPG Area", "Mines1");
Move Unit("Player 8", "Vulture Spider Mine", All, "Hero Player 1", "Mines1");

I added that (^) and took out the constant moving. The enemies attack the mines now, but the mines don't follow the hero.
None.

you are not centering "Mines1" on the hero. It stays on the mines forever.
Also make sure "Hero Player 1" is big enough. (At least 2x2 or better 4x4 bigger than "Mines1")

That could be a problem if each player is using player 8 mines. You could give players their own mines.
None.
Couldn't you give each player their own mines and then make their hero unit invincible?
None.
Players having their own mines would be ugly, but I guess it's the only alternative.
EDIT: Uhh, how would player mines work? Even with them constantly moving, resulting in unit slowdown, they still come up to attack.

None.
Burrowed zerg look better than mines.
None.
Burrowed zerg regenerates, but alas it looks like it'll have to do.
EDIT: How can I move a unit, but let it stay burrowed?
None.

Just use the "move unit" action

Use unit happening to be an action which doesn't exist...In SCMDraft or traditional? Or is Use Unit a term for a trigger system?
None.

Ooops... it is move unit. Corrected. Maybe I should have gone to sleep a bit earlier.
Someone delete this post pls
Um, I
am using move unit, and it doesn't work. The drones unburrow around the player.
None.
Their AI is probably making them unburrow to attack or something...
None.
They're drones, so they probably won't be attacking. =p
I also disabled burrow tech and still have the same thing.
Here's the map.

I've had drones unburrow to attack, it's not impossible.
And it doesn't matter for computers, they can UNburrow whether or not it's researched, they just can't burrow.
None.
Well, if u think they unborrow to attack, make P8 ALLY P6 might make sense?
i'll fix if this is wrong... so don't think it would really work, idk for sure yet
None.
Ichigo, look at the latest attachment.
None.
