"cycle until"

[RaveDuck 0]

My problem is that I need a plane to cycle between to waypoints until radio Alpha is triggered. Then it should continue to another waypoint.

Is it possible, and if it is: how?

It is possible,

give the plane 5 waypoints

1 Move

2 Move

3 Cycle (place this waypoint near the first move waypoint)

4 Move

5 Move

No create the trigger that is activated by the radio alpha command and give this trigger as type switch, and synchronize the trigger with the 4 waypoint (move) if you now cal radio alpha the plane will move to the 5 waypoint

Thanks a lot! It works perfectly (God knows why I didn't figure that one out myself?)

Just for info:

It would also work, if you syncronize the switch trigger

with waypoint 3 (cycle).

The switch trigger causes the unit to go on with the wayopints after the one which is synced with the trigger.

Also you could create different switch triggers, according

to different events to be happening. If you syncronize

the triggers with several different wayoints in the waypoint

order, you can create alternative waypoint orders.

huh that last sentence must sound very complicated,

ok here's a quick sample:

wp1: move

wp2: move

wp3: cycle -- synced with trigger1

wp4: move

wp5: hold -- synced with trigger2

wp6: move

wp7: guard -- synced with trigger3

wp8: move

wp9: cycle (near wp1)

all triggers will be type "switch" now

trigger1: event1 (enemy present)

trigger2: event2 (enemy present somewhere else)

trigger3: event3 (no more enemies in sight)

hope this helps too
