[chillra 10]

hi guys

i`m looking for some help would like to know if there is a script out there that would tell my AI units that the target (tank) is near them and to lay a mine and wait in hidding .any help would be great love the game but very new to all the scripting side of thing

Dunno about the laying mines bit...but for a great ambush tutorial, check out jester814 on YouTube. This man is my Arma hero!

toxic thanks for your reply , i have looked at jester814 and he is doing some great things in his vid`s but not realy what i was looking for ,i was hoping for something abit more like the suicideBomber.sqf Created by Zooloo75/Stealthstick where the AI knew about the nato side and would lay mine tripwires etc then when nato were in range hid ambush when nato have hit mine or are close to engage.i will continue with my search many thanks .

You want a random ambush or a specific one?

First part is to set your ambushers up. I use setcaptive and setcombatmode in triggers. A mine can be replicated easily with a trigger too.

HI hebrew hammer , yeah wanted some thing a bit more random ,if lets say ai men are in woods and cound see the road i wanted something that told ai that the enermy(me) is near them (200m)go lay a mine in road go hid back in woods wait and see if i hit mine ,drive the other way etc . then ai get up start patrol again i was hoping for a group off ambushers few with mine medic hmg guy all looking out for the west but like i say a bit more random thats why i thought it might be a script thing as i can get the ai to do sorft of want i want with a trigger but i got to drive in to it knowing its there :cool: again guys thanks for your replys
