jaenak 0 Posted December 4, 2003 If I have an M60 tank named tank1 and two soldiers, soldier1 and soldier2, to make the first soldier get into the driver position I type soldier1 moveindriver tank1 into the soldier's init field. How do I make the second soldier get into the gunner position of that same tank? My guess was... soldier2 action [GETIN_GUNNER, "tank1"] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaenak 0 Posted December 5, 2003 Okay, different one for ya. I have a helicopter and a group (I'm not in it). I have the group running to a spot near the helicopter and I want them to climb in the helicopter. I can put officer moveincargo chopper1 but I don't want him to just appear in the chopper. Once I did a: officer action["GETOUT","hummer"] and it worked. The guy drove the hummer through several waypoints, got out at the specified waypoint and walked to the next one where I was finally standing. Is there such thing as an: officer action["GETIN CARGO","chopper1"] that I can use? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted December 5, 2003 Do you need it in a script? can't you just add waypoints? Like make a WP for a heli and have it "load cargo" and then have a waypoint for the group getting in and put it as "get in" I think, then sync em and put an invisible H there and it will work methinks.

jaenak 0 Posted December 5, 2003 Okay, you just confused me there. No, its not in a script. And I tried te get in waypoint, it didn't do anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted December 5, 2003 OK. Make the heli, have it flying or whatever, then make it have a waypoint (not on itself, just where you want it to land) and make it "LOAD" i think, and then make a waypoint for the group getting in it, don't make it on the chopper, just make it near the choppers "load" waypoint, and make it "get in" I think, then press F5 and drag the helis waypoint to the get in waypoint, and it should work.

tracy_t 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Why can't you use soldier assignAsCargo vehicle soldier assignAsCommander vehicle soldier assignAsDriver vehicle .. etc etc? from script? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaenak 0 Posted December 9, 2003 'Cause I don't want them to just appear in the helicopter. I have the helicopter decent to the tarmac in a cut scene and have four people climb in. It kinda defeats the whole purpose of a cut scene if everyone just magically appears in the helicopter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Tracy_t's way doesn't, it assigns everyone to it and then I think they need a getinorder and they get in it. Why not just use my way? It's so simple, I'll give it in steps. A) Make the chopper, make it have a LOAD waypoint RIGHT over a helipad B) Make the group have a GET IN waypoint, RIGHT NEAR the heli's LOAD waypoint. C) Syncronise them by press F5 and click and drag from the helis LOAD waypoint to the groups GET IN waypoint. D) Watch heli land and soldiers get in.

Blanco 0 Posted December 9, 2003 soldier assignascargo chopper1 [soldier] ordergetin true That should work too or if you want soldier1 & soldier2 in cargo "_x assignascargo chopper1" foreach [soldier1,soldier2] [soldier1,soldier2] ordergetin true Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reason why I haven't used anyone's way was because the particular cut scene was something I was fooling around with so as to get my first taste of scripting cutscenes. It wasn't actually anything I really needed to know for the level I'm making. It was just curiosity I couldn't solve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
