Help with a spawning script

[Cryptdik 5]

Trying to use a script to spawn AI attackers but the downloaded version is giving me an error.

Dynamic AI Spawn System by Lt.Killer(SAS) and Cpt.Killer(SAS)  

http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=28107

 

I'm getting this error when I execute the script via trigger: 

|#|private ["_mingroups", "_max_groups", "...'
Error Local variable in global space

 

Here's the line it's from:

private ["_min_groups", "_max_groups", "min_group_size", "_max_group_size", "_number_groups", "_man_type"];

private ["_this_speed","_speed","_this_formation","_formation","_formation_count","_this_group","_this_man_odds","skill_odds","_skill_index"];

 

I'm using the IFA3 mod for this, but that shouldn't be causing this problem should it?

There's an abundancy of AI spawn scripts.

Why you have to use one that's almost 2 years old and hasn't been updated since the initial release is beyond me.

Hi Cryptdik,

 

I had a quick look at the script and I think your problem might be this line of code at the top of the script.

 

private ["_this_speed","_speed","_this_formation","_formation","_formation_count","_this_group","_this_man_odds","skill_odds","_skill_index"];

 

"skill_odds" should be like this "_skill_odds",

 

private ["_this_speed","_speed","_this_formation","_formation","_formation_count","_this_group","_this_man_odds","_skill_odds","_skill_index"];

 

Hope this helps.

"min_group_size" is a global variable does not belong in that list or maybe its supposed to be "_min_group_size"

Good pick up I missed that one.

I'd also advise against this script, due this happening to me when I tried it last year:

 

Allow me if I may to offer a 2016 update for this script. The script does all it advertises except for one small oversight. The script will put enemy groups on the (blufor activated) trigger location as described, but will also put enemy groups *anywhere* where BLUFOR exist on a map.
e.g.
Have you got a player on the other side of the map on a tarmac who is acting as CAS? He will be attacked in that location.
Players waiting at a respawn marker? They will be attacked at their location. It is like one enormnous simultaneous attack of any and all BLUFOR where-ever they are, whether you wanted it that way or not! GG
