Is it possible to put a waypoint in a positioned house?

[shammy2010 15]

I'm sorry if this question has been asked already but I've looked and cannot find a thread for this. So my question is: Is it possible to place a waypoint in a building that you have placed yourself through the mission editor? for example: I got "Dren's Map editorupdate" and I want to place a house from "empty" to the map. Then I ID the house through this code:

house1 = nearestObject [getpos this, 123456]

naming the house: "house1". But now I want a unit to go to a specific position in that building through a waypoint, is it possible to set a waypoint to that house?

See if this little demo mission here helps you out.

I'm sorry I haven't been on but I have been busy lately with some personal matters, anyways when I downloaded your demo mission, I noticed alot of scripts which I am unfamiliar with, could you kindly dumb it down for me? :P hehe how would I place a waypoint inside a building I placed on the map through the mission editor?

Do you mean the waypoint was placed in the editor or the building was placed on the map? Nm, I can read.

Since you placed the building you can give it a name, like myHouse. Then place a MOVE waypoint near the house and in the waypoint's onAct put something like this:

walker doMove (myHouse buildingPos 2);

The guy will walk to the building via the waypoint, then enter the building via the doMove.

Here's a demo mission showing this, no scripts. :)

Hi, where can one see where a certain buildingPos is situated in the house, eg. the roof is no. 6 ?
