High Command and Team Switch - High Commanding your own groups.

[easyeb 137]

So I've been trying to get something to work out and i've not had much luck.

What I want to do is have three groups, Alpha 1-1, Alpha 1-2 and Alpha1-3.

I want to be able to Team Switch between the groups and also High Command the other two groups that I am not currently playing.

What I get is I start as Alpha 1-1, then I can command Alpha 1-2 and Alpha 1-3. But when I team switch I of course have no High Command from the other two groups.

If I give all of them High Command - Commander and High Command - Subordinate I can reach the commanding menu even when I switch groups (so when I switch to Alpha 1-2 I can see Alpha 1-1 as my subordinate) but the group does not respond to commands.

Anyone of you have any ideas or experience?

Input as always much appreciated.

Using the following in conjunction with the HC class commands (to pass all necessary values to the new "commander") may be useful:

I appreciate that you think highly of me Mr.J but could you maybe spell it out to me?

As if I was three years old... :)

Try this (I've haven't messed with much HC or teamswitch stuff):

//init.sqf
onTeamSwitch
{
[_from,_to] execVM "teamSwitched.sqf";
}


//teamSwitched.sqf

_oldUnit = (_this select 0);
_newUnit = (_this select 1);

_oldGroups = hcAllGroups _oldUnit;

hcRemoveAllGroups_oldUnit;

{
_newUnit hcSetGroup [_x];
} forEach _oldGroups;

I'm getting nothing.

Trying with two riflemen, Alpha 1-1 and Alpha 1-2.

Both have High Command Commander synced to themselves and synced to High Command Subordinate for the other guy.

Same deal; when I team switch it looks like I'm ready to roll but the unit is not responding to commands.

It's weird becaus when you set it up so that both are commander over the other one you seem to be able to command the other one until you have switched to it once, then it stops reacting to waypoints.

Try it with just a one way setup, one commander unit, one subordinate, synced up, but not to eachother, see if that makes a difference (and run what I put above).

I think I have tried every combo of syncing, getting nowhere with this.
