Create High Command modules via script

[Leopard20 813]

Hi.

How can I create high command modules via scripts? If I use this, the game will show an error:

"HighCommand" createVehicleLocal [0, 0, 0];

I think it's because the module needs to be created prior to running the mission and be synced to the player.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I think you can't. This feature seems to be initialized at start.

 

I just tried to place modules and add links by script: working but error message while no link at start.

try this;

 

if (count (allMissionObjects "HighCommand") == 0) then {

    _Group = createGroup (sideLogic);

    _Group_HC_C = _Group createUnit ["HighCommand", [0, 0, 0], [], 0, "NONE"];

    _Group_HC_S = _Group createUnit ["HighCommandSubordinate", [0, 0, 0], [], 0, "NONE"];

    player synchronizeObjectsAdd [_Group_HC_C];

    _Group_HC_C synchronizeObjectsAdd [_Group_HC_S];

};

Yes! don't forget to link something on _group_HC_S :

leader grp1 synchronizeObjectsAdd [_Group_HC_S]; // for example

Take it with a grain of salt as I can not test this, but from my struggle with HC I remember that this setup is not MP compatible. BIS HC is not very flexible and has to be created in the mission setup.

@pierremgi, @gizz46
I actually figured out something similar to gizz46's method a couple of minutes later after posting this thread. The number of errors has reduced of course (only one error at the beginning - before I got errors every time I switched to HC). I think it'll do for now! Thank you both for your input.

@mad_cheese
I should definitely test it in MP too. Thanks for the heads up!

Although when I saw the errors first I figured maybe I should use duda's High Command module that he uses in his AIC mod (with permission of course!). If you think it's better I could actually go through with it!
