acidcrash 0 Posted May 11, 2003 alright, heres the situation: i have 4 squads paradropping in...no i dont want a paradrop script... and every now and then 1 or more dies during the jump, be it from collision or too low to the ground. What i want is for a radio call that checks how many is left from each group. so far i have it that they all check in if they are ALL alive </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">A1 sidechat "All stations, status check" ~2 (count units grpb) >= 9; B1 sidechat "Bravo 1 all here" ~1 (count units grpc) >= 9; B1 sidechat "Charlie 1 all here" ~1 (count units grpd) >= 12; B1 sidechat "Delta 1 all here"<span id='postcolor'> thats all well and good, but what i want is that, if someone dies then instead of saying "all here", i want it to say how many dead. i thought maybe </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">if ({count units grpb} >= 12); b1 sidechat "bla bla bla" <span id='postcolor'> but it doesnt seem to work so does anyone have any suggestions or can it not be done? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted May 11, 2003 How about: in init.sqs </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">alphaStart = count units grpa bravoStart = count units grpb<span id='postcolor'> in your radio script</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">A1 sidechat "All stations, status check" ~2 if (count units grpb == bravoStart ) then {B1 sidechat "Bravo 1 all here";} else {B1 sidechat format ["Bravo 1 %1 lost",bravoStart - count units grpb];}; . . .<span id='postcolor'> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acidcrash 0 Posted May 11, 2003 either ive done something wrong or its not had the desired response, if any of the teams have a dead member, they fail to check in, at first i thought maybe the team leaders had died, but when i shot someone who i knew to be just a soldier it turns out i was wrong there... thanks for the quick response though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bn880 5 Posted May 11, 2003 yep, was missing a ']' check now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acidcrash 0 Posted May 11, 2003 ah yes, works now d'oh! excelent after testing it a few times i hit another wall, your screwed if the group leader dies, any idea how i would have it so that the next person in the CoC would take over and report in? eg, the Officer dies, the medic is B2 for example, so then he would radio the report instead...
