ray243 11 Posted August 12, 2010 So, I am making a convoy mission. There are 2 DSHKM trucks, 1 in the front and 1 in the rear, and in the middle are 2 SUVs filled with mercenaries. Now, I have gotten them to get inside the empty suvs, but I simply do not know how to actually have them move in a 'line' from point A to B. Which they will get attack(which is the easy part). So how do I set a waypoint to ensure that there is 1 machinegun truck in front, and 1 at the rear, and in the middle are 2 suvs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelblood 10 Posted August 12, 2010 Well you could look for some scripts or just use normal waypoints ? And make sure they are in line with each other ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jack_Ryan_ 10 Posted August 12, 2010 I noticed in a mission someone made with a convoy, that worked fairly well, they had set the speed of the lead vehicle a little bit faster then the followers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not know anything about sqf. Only thing I know is triggers or anything ingame. 1 final question as well, if I got a VIP to walk into the SUV, how do I make sure the convoy only move off after the VIP got in the suv?

kylania 567 Posted August 13, 2010 Give the convoy a HOLD waypoint directly in front of them. Synch that waypoint to a trigger which checks of the vip is in whichever vehicle you wanted them him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray243 11 Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Now I have everything done, only left with the convoy moving off to x location in a tight line formation. And this is the point, where I'm clueless. And of course, vehicle 1 and 2 have the same distance through out the journey ---------- Post added at 06:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ---------- I have gotten the convoy part done! I used waypoints though. Anyone knows how I can keep the distance between all three vehicles the same? And also, I couldn't get the VIP in the middle vehicle, a SUV, since everyone is connected to the first vehicle. How do I get the VIP to get in the middle vehicle?

Militant1006 11 Posted August 17, 2010 ray the AI isn't that good that it can keep the same distance throughout a trip, the game that do that essentially have the vehicles travelling on "rails". And also is the middle vehicle a SUV? if it is just tell him to moveInCargo. I wouldn't say that convoys is a "strong" part of ArmA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
