player prone ?

[SOLDIER X 10]

Hi

Is there a way to force a player unit to start the game in the prone position ? I tried

this setUnitPos "DOWN"

But it dosn't seem to work for the player unit .

Cheers X

You can probably switchmove them into the prone position. To find out what the animation is called, search for the 'animation viewer'. It's a mission that allows you to view and play animations.

To force a player to prone you can't do animations in their init field, so you should try it from a script once in game. This in the init.sqf should do it:

sleep 0.1;
player switchMove "AidlPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon01";

put this in on activation of a trigger

unit switchMove "amovppnemstpsraswrfldnon" unit being name of your guy.make sure trigger covers the soldiers area good luck.setting it to bluefor etc whatever side your on.

Does giving the player a waypoint with "Stealth" behavior work? I seem to remember that working.
