help with a script error

[hellstorm77 2]

i was wondering if someone could help me with a script error im getting

_max = (count _allunits) - 1;
_skill = 1 + log(mps_mission_factor/4);

for "_j" from 1 to _strength do {
_unit = _Grp createUnit [_allunits select (round random _max),_spawnpos,[],0,"NONE"];
_unit setSkill _skill;
_unit allowFleeing 0;
};

if(_patrol) then {[_Grp,_spawnpos,_movetype] spawn mps_patrol_init;};

error

Error in expression <do {
_unit = _Grp createUnit [_allunits select (round random _max),_spawnpos,[],>

Is local variable _allunits defined? Maybe you wanted to use script command allUnits?

[hellstorm77 2]

I think this is it

switch _type do{
case "INF": {_allunits = mps_opfor_inf};
case "INS": {_allunits = mps_opfor_ins};
case "TARGET" : {_allunits = mps_opfor_leader};
default {_allunits = mps_opfor_inf};

If _allunits is defined only inside that switch case then it won't exist anywhere but in it.

Pretty much a guessing game without the rest of the code hellstorm.

The only reference i can find for this particular code is THIS. So what is the mps_opfor_inf/ins/leader in what ever else of this code you have implemented? If these are not defined then you are going to get ANY returned from the selection, giving you the error you are seeing.

Does this command: private "_allunits";

at the top of the script initiate the variable properly?
