animation question

[jandrews 116]

I want to have the trigger go with west player within 3 m, does this look correct?

would this work in trigger

none, none,

condition: if (side player == west) + (player distance triggername) < 3 then;

Act: {H1 enableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","AUTOTARGET","FSM","MOVE","TARGET"]; detach H1; H1 switchMove ""; H1 setCaptive false; H1 joinSilent player;

You wouldnt us the if then command in a trigger.

In the condition field:

(side player == west) && player distance triggername < 3

On act field:

{H1 enableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","AUTOTARGET","FSM","MOVE","TARGET"]; detach H1; H1 switchMove ""; H1 setCaptive false; H1 joinSilent player;

thanks cobra. let you know if it works.

trigger = t1, radius 0/0/0, none, none,

condition field:

(side player == west) && player distance t1 < 3

On act field:

{H1 enableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","AUTOTARGET","FSM","MOVE","TARGET"]; detach H1; H1 switchMove ""; H1 setCaptive false; H1 joinSilent player;

They release but do not join my guy for me to give them directions. ideas?

Sorry forgot the brackets.

[H1] joinSilent player

[jandrews 116]

hey cobra, the brackets work, however the unit goes into a sitting posture again after he joins, must be some bug. I have it the same as above in trigger and once hes released he stands and then sits, I give an order and he stands and then sits.

unit init = removeAllAssignedItems this; removeAllWeapons this; removeVest this; removeUniform this; this setCaptive true; [this, "SIT_LOW_U", "NONE" ] call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim

trigger = t1, radius 0/0/0, none, none,

condition field:

(side player == west) && player distance t1 < 3

On act field:

{H1 enableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","AUTOTARGET","FSM","MOVE","TARGET"]; detach H1; H1 switchMove ""; H1 setCaptive false; H1 joinSilent player;

Looks like a bug to me. This works.

hostage.sqf

_unit = _this select 0;

removeAllAssignedItems _unit; 
removeGoggles _unit; 
removeHeadgear _unit; 
removeAllContainers _unit;
removeAllWeapons _unit; 

_unit setCaptive true;
_unit switchMove "aidlpsitmstpsnonwnondnon_ground00";
{_unit disableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","MOVE","TARGET","FSM","AUTOTARGET"];

Also rather than doing a distance check from the trigger why not do it from the hostage.

condition:

player distance H1 < 3

on Act:

{H1 enableAI _x} forEach ["ANIM","AUTOTARGET","FSM","MOVE","TARGET"]; 
detach H1; 
H1 switchMove ""; 
H1 setCaptive false;
[H1] joinSilent player;

Okay so I played with this some more, for some reason now the function is not terminating like it used to, maybe its from the latest patch. In order to stop using Bis_fnc_ambientanim you should use this:

unitname call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim__terminate;

That will make the function terminate. So this is what it should look like.

Your hostages init line:

removeAllAssignedItems this;   
removeUniform this; 
this setCaptive true; 
[this, "SIT_LOW_U", "NONE" ] call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim;

Your trigger:

Cond:

player distance H1 < 3

Act:

H1 call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim__terminate; 
H1 switchMove "amovpsitmstpsnonwnondnon_amovpercmstpsnonwnondnon_ground"; //this will make the unit actually stand up rather than pop up
H1 setCaptive false; 
[H1] joinSilent player;
