Mission Fail if numbers of dead reached

[Ice_Rhino 3]

I have a four man team that moves through a village. I want the mission to fail if two members of that team get killed. The members of the team are called blu_diver_1a to 1d.

I was thinking about a variable type thing that increments on a team member death and then when equal to 2. Only thing is I do not know how to implement such a thing

Any ideas?

Haven't tried if it works but this is what you're looking for, someone better can probably fix the counting if it doesn't work.

It would be very similar to how Larrow dis this for you: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?183405-Trigger-not-working-on-deaths-of-AI

Except you would do something along the lines of:

while (true) do {

{

(!alive _x)
}count [unit names here] >=2;

};

I am probably missing a thing or two, but doing this from my phone :p so just trying my best.

And it seems we are building whatever scenario you are working on for you...at least that's how I feel, a lot of these things already have threads on then, you may have to search for a bit, but they are out there...

EDIT:I was ninjad... btw, but you will still need the while loop to keep it checking for alive players.

Do you even waitUntil bro. It IS a loop.

I look over it :p, on my phone so...

Thanks for the ongoing information, not sure how to implement it though to be honest. Is there a way to create a variable, say DeadDivers, and then on the death of a specific unit, it will

Initial Information - DeadDivers = 0

Then on each death of certain unit it would be

DeadDivers = DeadDivers +1

I could then have a trigger that fires on the DeadDivers = 2

Thanks

add this on the units

this addEventHandler ["Killed",{
 if (isNil "DeadDivers") then {DeadDivers = 0};
 DeadDivers = DeadDivers + 1;
 publicVariable "DeadDivers";
}];

Hi Cuel,

I have put the code in the units as you suggested and it accepted it without error. I then created a trigger with condition of

DeadDivers = 2

and a hint on ACT just saying "DeadDivers Limit Reached"

I killed two of the team with the code but nothing happened. What am I missing here?

Sorted it, I need to use

DeadDivers == 2

Thanks to all for your help and especially Cuel.

You could just strap my code a bit and then put it in a trigger too...
