Trigger CONDITION if a Sector is captured by a faction

[febriannas 10]

Trigger condition for if an obj dead

!alive obj

(this bolean if CONDITION , Dead of an Object, right?)

is there any trigger condition for

(CONDITION of a ,Captured SectorModule by a Faction,is ?)

[jshock 512]

There is a trigger condition for Seized by (Blufor, Opfor, Independent).

Are you referring to "ModuleSector_F" Under modules in Multiplayer>Sector or "ModuleMPTypeSectorControl_F" in Gameplay Modes>Sector Control?

Your question isnt very specific and written like pure code with little explanation.

Also check these out if they help any:

I dont know what your level of arma code knowledge is so i dont mean to insult it.

Im sure he wants to know how, not just if it exists. Care to elaborate?

Under the activation drop down is "Seized by (side)" click and there you go, seized is defined by, within a certain trigger area there is only "x" units from "x" side ("x" being Blufor,Opfor,Indep) within its bounds. So say you have a Seized by Blufor trigger over a town that you wanted to clear, if there are any enemies within the trigger area (the town) the trigger will still return false, until either the enemies leave the area or are killed at which point the trigger fires and does whatever you have in the onAct field.

So basically I'm not necessarily using the sector control modules, I'm just using a trigger with a "Seized by" condition. For more information on the sector modules themselves reference this page.

For the !alive obj, yes that will be considered true if the object/unit/vehicle is destroy/killed/deleted.

The expression field in the sector control module can run code whenever the sector ownership changes. The passed arguments are [<module>, <ownerSide>, <previousOwnerSide>].

Note: I don't advise to use seized by triggers or any other way of monitoring sectors now that we've legit SC module(s). Streamlined, more diverse, easy to set up. My2C. Cheers.

wow thanks guys for the fast response

this is the elaboration, im quite new to the editor just 2 days ago, hehe

already used the "seized by" before but it doesnt start the unit waypoint movement

or maybe i did something wrong to the sync or the setting?

[jshock 512]

If your trying to get a waypoint movement from a trigger make sure the "Type" is set to switch.

That method only does one side.

I did find this though under Modules/Category:Multiplayer/Module:Sector, Under module properties:

Expression_______

Description: "Code executed when sector ownership changes. Passed arguments are[<module>,<ownerSide>,<previousOwnerSide>]"

Seems like you can add a .sqf or code that executes when sector changes ownership, effectively a trigger. Sounds like it outputs an array that can probably be used with "this select X"

wow nice i got two solution from you guys

so using the "seized by trigger" , or , "the owner side trigger"

1.>ok maybe i just forget to change the type to "switch" and set up a double layered for it.

2.>and for the "sector module" so,

how actually i write the "sector module argument expression" for it?

and i have two waypoint there, what should i write on the "waypoint condition" or maybe the "trigger condition" to activate the waypoint?

sorry guys i know just a little about writing variable just 2 days ago starting to play with this arma editor, :p

Or maybe set a new move task for the unit??

if so how to do it upon "seized by trigger"

i dont know how to make a move task

[febriannas 10]

GUYS I FOUND THE SOLUTION!!!

to the condition

sector getvariable "owner" == west/east

[iceman77 18]

2. and for the "sector module" so,

how actually i write the "sector module argument expression" for it?

So are you utilizing the sector module(s) now? Or... I'm confused. To write the expression for the actual sector module the simplest way is to place a sector module on the map and find the expression field...

GUYS I FOUND THE SOLUTION!!!

to the condition

sector getvariable "owner" == west/east

 

just to be clear - this if for the benefit of guys like me whose lack of coding skills require that i painfully reconstruct what's being shared here to make head and tails of it. 

 

make the condition of a trigger:

sector_1 getvariable "owner" == west

where "sector_1" is the name of the sector in your seize module and "west" is the side you want to activate the trigger. 

 

and then make the "on activation" in that same trigger state the following; 

tsk1_done=true; publicVariable "tsk1_done";

if you do the same for any of the contested sectors in your mission and then you make a final trigger to end the mission where the condition field is something like this; 

tsk1_done && tsk2_done && tsk3_done

and you make the "on activation"; 

"end1" call BIS_fnc_endMission;

you will now be able to end your mission once the players seize all of the contested sectors from the AI. 

 

anyway, just figured i'd share how i used this information you guys unearthed. 

 

thanks again,

There is no need for you triggers for each sector. You can use the sectors Expression field in the editor to monitor each sector. e.g

Open the sector in the editor and place in its expression field..

if (_this select 1 isEqualTo west) then {tsk1_done=true; publicVariable "tsk1_done"}

The expression field runs the code it is given when ever the owner of the sector changes. The expression receives the parameters [module, new owner, old owner] so _this select 1 would be the new owner as above.

That just leaves your main trigger to determine mission end.

Larrow, 

 

Once again you have provided valuable info that will help me tidy up my mission ... thanks. Will implement this tonight when I get home from work. 

 

Thanks Again,
