Spawn script to fill buildings with garrisons.

[kibaBG 53]

Hi guys, 

I am bashing my head with something very easy (hopefully 🙂). I want to make a script to fill some buildings (sorted by classname or random)  with enemies in given location (town, village, etc.). The old way I used before was just making a trigger next to every big building in the location and pasting this in on activation: 

private _group = createGroup [WEST, true];  
_unit1 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 1),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit1 disableAI "PATH"; _unit1 setUnitPos "UP";
_unit2 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_MG_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 2),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit2 disableAI "PATH"; _unit2 setUnitPos "UP";
_unit3 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_GL_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 3),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit3 disableAI "PATH"; _unit3 setUnitPos "UP";
_unit4 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 4),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit4 disableAI "PATH"; _unit4 setUnitPos "UP";
_unit5 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_MG_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 5),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit5 disableAI "PATH"; _unit5 setUnitPos "UP";
_unit6 = _group createUnit ["CUP_B_US_Soldier_GL_OEFCP",(nearestBuilding thisTrigger buildingPos 6),[],0,"CAN_COLLIDE"];  
_unit6 disableAI "PATH"; _unit6 setUnitPos "UP";

Its terribly tedious and I want to change it to a proper script executed by the server. Any ideas?

you should describe what your "proper script" should do.

Grab a script that does it out of the box, for example this one

The problem is I don't want all of the units to face a window so the player has to storm the building at some point. Otherwise he will kill everyone with a sniper rifle one by one circling the building from a distance.

I want to fill the enterable buildings in a village with AI defenders by script. Sorry English is not my first language.    

 

I  am trying to make it work with nearObjects command, something like this

_list = (locationPosition _rLocation) nearObjects ["House", 20];

This will give me "array of objects", but how to make these objects (houses) fill with enemies with  buildingPos or nearestBuilding command?
 

_rLocation = selectRandom [location_1,location_2,location_3];     //find random village from all villages on the map 
_list = (locationPosition _rLocation) nearObjects ["House", 200]; //finding all the houses around the location marker as array 
_aslPos = getPosASL _list;					//converting the buildings array into array of positions? but it doesn't work with array
										// I am lost :(
