Problem with "if"

[ZU23 2]

Hello, Im trying to make a command that spawns an AI but also kills him when hes at a certain distance from the player, however the distance thing doesnt seem to work.

_group = createGroup WEST;
_unit = _group createUnit ["B_Soldier_F", position player, [], 1, "FORM"];
_meters = player distance _unit;
if (_meters >= 10) then {_unit setDamage 1;};

That's because the distance is to small. You check the distance only once when the unit was created. Add a loop and keep checking the distance.

Normal. You're spawning the unit on player's position.
