I have 1 tip...
If you use generic scripts in a mission then always be sure that it is a pulse so use a flag for instance...
The following scripts are subroutines which are active and dont deactivate on succes.
Code:

***IF***
Flag attack is false
*AND*
Player has units in area blabla
***THEN***
Team starts hunting
Set flag attack to True

And the reset of the flag when the area is save again...
Code:

***IF***
Flag attack is true
*AND*
Player doesnt have units in area blabla
***THEN***
Team starts guarding
Set flag attack to false

The reason for this is that when a subroutine is running and it remains true a team starts running and stands on the same place while running, you can see this very good with infantry, had that a lot when i just started scripting.
You only use this method in generic scripts because the scripts on the behavior tab are pulses...
