accessing all units in an array

[stuguy 15]

you can also add more cases obviously.  Like if you want a heavy weapons team or something.  If you want a bunch of rifleman, but one of each of the specialists, then riflemen can use case default and default will execute for all cases that aren't being handled manually.  Like the code I sent you way above with the default case.  Should you have had a squad leader, grenadier, medic, marksman, and AT soldier, the default case could have been a standard rifleman, and however many extra men in the squad you had would have been riflemen, assuming you didn't handle case # for the position of the current index.

i definitely am. Man this is so much better and fun than those c++ assignments i had that my professor wouldn't even bother looking at because he knows i did it right.

Used to bug me so much. At least now i am doing something people will be using and giving me feedback so i can keep on making it better

@stuguy Hey buddy as much as I would still love to know why this error exists, while trying to fix it i remembered something.

 

I will be using these loadouts in multiple missions and not just one, so I have decided to create every squad in a separate file and use the ExecVM to create them in the mission. This way I do not have to create the AIs in every mission file.

 

I am guessing the way to do this is save the mission location in a global variable and that will be used to spawn the units every time the file is executed. 

I haven't done this yet, just starting on it however I hope i am right :P
