Need help with the Bis_fnc_ task patrol setup using a maker not unit location!

[avibird 1 155]

Hello fooling around with the BIS_fnc_taskPatrol module. 

 

This works

[Group this, getPos this, 500 ] call 

Bis_fnc_taskPatrol ;

 

This does not work lol.

[ mPos1 = getmarkerPos "Mk1" ; 500] call Bis_fnc_testPatrol 500]

 

 

What I want to do is have a group placed on the map that will move to the marker location and the patrol 500 meter perimeter from the market position. Currently the above that works the 500 m perimeter is where the units are placed on the map I want it to work for the marker position and not where they placed on the map. Can this be done with the simple BSI module. Thanks Avi.

So it's a very simple fix of typos lol. The story of my life with editing.

 

This works great now for a simple patrol and reinforcements code using vanilla modules. 

 

[ Group this , getmarkerPos "Mk1" , 150] call Bis_fnc_TaskPatrol;

 

A squad of 8 placed all around a town with some of units with a dostop commond so some of them want move until enemies are spotted. Then all units will move around the random waypoints and engage enemy units in the town.
