Can you spot my problem?

[golfpro1286 10]

So my mission used to work, but now something has gone wrong. I was hoping you guys could help me spot the error. So here is what is happening (or not happening I guess);

My mission is to go collect evidence, when the folder is picked up it identifies a target to go kill. That works fine, the task is created using this code in trigger:

Condition:

taskCompleted tskEvidence1 ; 

On Act:

tskobj_2 = player createSimpleTask ["Kill NSK."]; tskobj_2 setSimpleTaskDescription ["Evidence file obtained, NSK and his army has taken over the Vatra Airport. Find and eliminate him..","Kill NSK","Kill NSK"]; tskobj_2 setSimpleTaskDestination markerpos ""; player setCurrentTask tskobj_2; tskobj_2 = true; publicVariable "tskobj_2"; _marker = createMarker ["NSK", position player ];  "NSK" setMarkerType "Flag";  "NSK" setMarkerSize [1, 1];  "NSK" setMarkerDir 0.93884;  "YourMarker" setMarkerText "NSK's Base";  "NSK" setMarkerColor "ColorRed";  "NSK" setMarkerPos getMarkerPos "NSK"; 

The idea is that when I kill him it prompts me to search his body for evidence using following codes. However when I kill him it simply says objective complete. Does not create the third task. Here is the code I am using:

trigger to complete task when he is killed.

condition:

!alive nsk; 

on act:

"2" objStatus "DONE"; tskobj_2 setTaskState "SUCCEEDED"; player setCurrentTask tskobj_3; obj_3 = true; publicVariable "obj_3"; 

Then to set the third task to search his body once he is dead I use this trigger:

condition:

taskcompleted tskobj_2;

on act:

tskobj_3 = player createSimpleTask ["Search NSK's body."]; tskobj_3 setSimpleTaskDescription ["Verify NSK's death by taking his dogtags, also search for any other items of interest.","Search NSK's body.","Search NSK's body."]; task3 setSimpleTaskDestination markerpos "NSK"; player setCurrentTask tskobj_3; hint "Verify NSK's death by taking his dogtags, also search for any other items of interest." ;

Like I said it used to work, can you spot anything that would cause the tskobj_3 to not be created when nsk is killed?

try these out:

// complete task 2
"2" objStatus "DONE";
tskobj_2 setTaskState "SUCCEEDED";
player setCurrentTask tskobj_3;
[b][u]obj_3[/u][/b] = true;			// should be tskobj_3
publicVariable "[b][u]obj_3[/u][/b]";		// should be tskobj_3

// create task 3
tskobj_3 = player createSimpleTask ["Search NSK's body."];
tskobj_3 setSimpleTaskDescription ["Verify NSK's death by taking his dogtags, also search for any other items of interest.","Search NSK's body.","Search NSK's body."];
[b][u]task3[/u][/b] setSimpleTaskDestination markerpos "NSK";		// should be tskobj_3
player setCurrentTask tskobj_3;
hint "Verify NSK's death by taking his dogtags, also search for any other items of interest.";

Yeah those were corrected even before I posted this, it didn't work. I think the problem has to lie in the completion of tskobj_2 somehow. When I shoot him it says "objective complete" however it does not mark the task as complete or create the new one. This game is so frustrating lol.

Try changing:

"YourMarker" setMarkerText "NSK's Base";

to this:

"NSK" setMarkerText "NSK's Base";

It may be detecting undefined variable on "YourMarker" and stopping the script.

--- edit --

It also could be that setCurrentTask tskobj_3 is running before the trigger has opportunity to detect task 2 completed and create task 3.

Move this:

player setCurrentTask tskobj_3; tskobj_3 = true; publicVariable "tskobj_3";

to the end of the "taskcompleted tskobj_2" trigger's onAct code.
