script Hunters chasing player, problem with vehicles

[TURCO_AR 5]

Greetings to all.

I usually use this script to spawn (on trigger position) hunters to hunt the players (on foot) in my multiplayer mission (dedi) and its works perfect.

But updating the mission and adding vehicles for the players I realized that when a player is inside a vehicle and activates the trigger and then gets off the vehicle and continues on foot, the hunters reach the position of the abandoned vehicle and stop there, do not continue chasing the player on foot.

Any help or advice is welcome.

Thank You!

 

Trigger size: 390 x 390

Activation: Any Player

ActType: Present

Server Only: yes

Cond: this

OnAct:

null = [thistrigger,thislist] execvm "4hunters.sqf";

4hunters.sqf

_PosTrigger = _this select 0;
_objetives = _this select 1;
_objetive = _objetives select 0;

if (isserver) then {

private ["_hunters", "_leaderhunters"];

_CountEnemies = {alive _x && side _x == independent} count allUnits;

//Spawn hunters if less than 100 enemies on the map
if (_CountEnemies < 100) then {
		_SpawnPos = position _PosTrigger ;
		_hunters = createGroup independent;
		_hunters = [_SpawnPos, independent, ["I_C_Soldier_Para_2_F","I_C_Soldier_Para_1_F","I_C_Soldier_Para_2_F","I_C_Soldier_Para_1_F"],[],[],[],[],[],260] call BIS_fnc_SpawnGroup;
				
//Move to player position
_leaderhunters = leader _hunters; 
_leaderhunters move (position _objetive);
_hunters setCombatMode "RED"; 
_hunters setBehaviour "AWARE";
_hunters allowFleeing 0;

0 = [_hunters,_objetive] spawn { while {true} do {
	
	params ["_hunters","_objetive"];

	sleep 3;
	
//If the player who activates the trigger moves more than 400 meters away, the hunters are deleted
	if ((_objetive distance (leader _hunters)) > 400) exitWith {

	{deleteVehicle _x} forEach units _hunters; }; }; };

//When the hunters reach the position where the trigger is activated (and the player is not there) wait 3 sec and update the player's new position.	
while {true} do { 														//
   _leaderhunters = leader _hunters; 
   if ((unitReady _leaderhunters) && {(alive _leaderhunters)}) then { 
       sleep 3; 
       if (({ alive _x} count (units _hunters)) != 0) then { 
			_leaderhunters = leader _hunters; 
			_leaderhunters move (position _objetive); 
			_hunters setCombatMode "RED"; 
			_hunters setBehaviour "AWARE";
			_hunters allowFleeing 0;};};};		
	};
};

Don't know if it's relevant but BI made their own hunting function: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BIS_fnc_stalk

Give the following a try:

_objetive = vehicle (_objetives select 0);

Thanks for answering Maff.
It still doesn't work. The AI's remain in the position of the abandoned vehicle and do not update the location of the player on foot, as seen in the image below:

To update the location of the player:

 

Name the friendly unit   blue1     name the enemy unit  red1.  Place a third man on the map, on a flat road, in an out of the way place. Name him   green1

 

Set up some waypoints including a cycle waypoint so that   green1   runs up the road 50 meters, turns around and runs back again 50 meters, turns around and runs up again 50 meters for ever and ever in a never ending loop.

 

Set up a trigger in the middle of his route.  When he enters the trigger, it activates. When he leaves the trigger it deactivates.

 

You now type some script in two fields of the trigger, the activation field and the deactivation field;

 

red1 move getPos blue1;  red1 setCombatMode "RED";

 

====================================================

 

The result is that whenever  blue1  moves,  red1  will always know his location and will constantly come looking for him.
