Sitting around a fire and trigger at specific time

[seife 1]

Hey,

I'm working on a sniper mission at the moment where I want to fire a trigger (for a waypoint) at a specific time. I tried using the date module but tbh I dont have a clue how to use it or if it's even the right tool for this.

Moreover, I want some fireteams to be sitting around campfires. Anybody knows a working way to do this? I tried the following script but I got errors:

    _this setBehaviour "SAFE";
   _this disableAI "ANIM";
   _this action ["SITDOWN",_this];
   sleep 5;
   waitUntil{
        if(animationState _this != "amovpsitmstpsraswrfldnon")then{
             sleep 8+random(3);
             _this action ["SITDOWN",_this];
             waitUntil{animationState _this == "amovpsitmstpsraswrfldnon"}
        };
        behaviour _this != "SAFE"
   }; 
   _this enableAI "ANIM";

Error:

Would help with debug if you could paste the errors

It's in the first post know. Are they stored somewhere as text maybe?

try (_this select 0) instead of _this

Thanks, now it works fine. :)

I removed the disableai to make them react too hostiles which seems to work.

However, nobody knows about the triggers at a specific time?

Could use the daytime command in a triggers condition?

There is another thread on the forum talking about keeping server and client time in sync using PV's as apparently the two drift abit.

It included a post from Kju showing how he does it, if I find it ill add a link here.

Just thought about it and used a trigger with countdown. Not sure if this is the best solution but it works in SP.

Nevertheless, thanks! The command looks good. I will try it. :)
