TURCO_AR 5 Posted January 28, 2019 Hi. I have some problem to make this script run on Dedi Server. I want to spawn a group and hunt the player/team that activate the trigger. The spawn is correct and they are directed to the position of the one that activated the trigger. The update of the player's position also works correctly. The problem is that the _BadGuys are not deleted if the one that activated the trigger moves away more than 700 meters. I placed a trigger, with OnAct: null = [thistrigger,thislist] execvm "hunter_on foot.sqf"; and the script: _posTrigger = _this select 0; _TeamActTrigger = _this select 1; _1stManTeamActTrigger = _TeamActTrigger select 0; if (isserver) then { if (count allunits < 90) then { //verify that there are no more than 90 units on the map before spawn group _spawn = position _posTrigger ; _BadGuys = createGroup EAST; _BadGuys = [_spawn, EAST, ["O_G_Soldier_SL_F","O_G_Soldier_lite_F"],[],[],[],[],[],260] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; _chief = leader _BadGuys; _chief move (position _1stManTeamActTrigger); _BadGuys setCombatMode "RED"; _BadGuys setBehaviour "AWARE"; _BadGuys allowFleeing 0; /////////////////////////////////////////// //Original Script below: anthonyfromtheuk// /////////////////////////////////////////// //If the distance with the player is greater than 700 the team is deleted 0 = _BadGuys spawn { while {true} do { sleep 3; if ((_1stManTeamActTrigger distance (leader _this)) > 700) exitWith { {deleteVehicle _x} forEach units _BadGuys; }; }; }; //UPDATE the player's position and start moving to the new position while {true} do { _chief = leader _BadGuys; if ((unitReady _chief) && {(alive _chief)}) then { sleep 5; if (({ alive _x} count (units _BadGuys)) != 0) then { _chief = leader _BadGuys; _chief move (position _1stManTeamActTrigger); _BadGuys setCombatMode "RED"; _BadGuys setBehaviour "AWARE"; _BadGuys allowFleeing 0; }; }; }; }; }; Any clues? Thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pierremgi 4737 Posted January 28, 2019 Here now, it's _objectivo which is not defined. Each time you want to spawn a code, write all parameters in array, and inside like this: [_para1,_para2,_para3,..._paraN] spawn { // you have to pass _local variable only. Global ones are defined on every scripts running on the PC. params ["_para1","_para2","_para3",..."_paraN"]; <code> // btw, will fail if you are using some _parN+1 }; This way, you don't bother with extra name for variables, or _this, and it's easy to do. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vandeanson 1676 Posted January 28, 2019 what pierremgi says:) im the latter part it seems that _1stManTeamActTrigger is not defined as it has not been passed as parameter from the code earlier (as you are creating a separate namespace below, that is separated from above code. above local variables are not "known" here.) my proposal would be to change this: ...... //If the distance with the player is greater than 700 the team is deleted 0 = ["_BadGuys","_1stManTeamActTrigger"] spawn { while {true} do { params ["_BadGuys","_1stManTeamActTrigger"]; sleep 3; if ((_1stManTeamActTrigger distance (leader _BadGuys)) > 700) exitWith { {deleteVehicle _x} forEach units _BadGuys; }; }; }; also, i beliefe _this should refer to the _BadGuys right? i am not 100% if that works above, i would change it to _BadGuys. written on my handheld, hence my apologies for not putting the code in format and spoilers (no idea how to do this on mobile:() check it with syntax highlighter, but i hope that gives you an idea what the issue might be. check my dynamic spawn script pack here on the forums. in the downloadable file there is a file called VD_NR_Spawner.sqf that is a similar AI hunting script, also with a distance check after player position check. not sure which code is the latest one, the _chicos1 or the _BadGuys version, just apply to whichever it is:) cheers vd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4737 Posted January 28, 2019 0 = [_BadGuys,_1stManTeamActTrigger] spawn { while {true} do { params ["_BadGuys","_1stManTeamActTrigger"]; You see the difference? You pass local variables (no quote "") you declare params (quoted). Then, of course you use variables (not quoted). And no, _this refers to the whole params array... But it"s useless if you take time to add the params inside the spawned code. Just use _badGuys. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
