Incremental Damage? Need specific help.

[daimyo21 2]

So Im trying to create a really basic zombie and I want his attack to do incremental damage when distance < 3-5m. I understand setdamage command.

But say I have a condition that the zombie is within distance, than on Act: player setdamage .03. If its on repeat it just keeps the play damaged at .03. How do I make it like player setdamage +.03 while zombie is <3-5m away he will incrementally take .03 damage every second until he dies etc.

Id like to put this into a script. I have a script thatll trigger when in distance but dont know what command to place for activation.

Also is this possible without scripts? Im just wondering if thatd be possible too.

Any workaround would be great. Thanks!

poorLittleFellow setDamage (damage poorLittleFellow + 0.03);

Best result in a script, first you need a eventhandler or something to check when to activate function

zombiedamage.sqf

_hit=0.3;
while {(_unit alive) && (_unit distance _zombie < 5)}
do 
{
_unit setdammage hit;
_hit=(_hit+0.3)
sleep 2;
};

have fun
