reinforcing dead squadmates for SP script or anything that is similar?

[Snail was here 10]

Im new to Mission editor and I am trying to create a mission where you have to kill a huge amount of enemy to win, You will start with 6/8 man squad and start to hunt down enemy troops in the huge map with no waypoints. The thing is, 6/8 man will not be enough but more man than that will be hard to handle. There will be alot of casualty in your squad so I need a script (or anything similar) to reinforce your dead squadmate by going to the medical tent or barrack.

Searched for "reinforcements" here or at OFPEC?

It turns up threads like this.

A simple way, provided you can leave individual units somewhere safe (maybe mark it on the map) is to add the following to their Init line in the editor:

this addAction ["Join my group", "join.sqs"]

;Join.sqs
_man = _this select 0
_action = _this select 2
_presser = _this select 1

IF (count units _presser >= 9) THEN {hint "You have too many units!"; exit}
_man removeaction _action
[_man] join _presser
_man groupchat format ["%1 reporting for duty, sir.", name _man]
exit

Change the number after "count units" to whatever you want as a group size (including the player). The maximum number of groups on any side is 63 - so you can have the player's group and 62 individual reinforcements.

Advantages:

You specify the type of unit; and the player should be able to recognise this and decide if they want them to join his group.

Disadvantages:

Lots of individual units stuck waiting where-ever, hopefully out of the way of the enemy.
