Blanco 0 Posted December 23, 2003 thanks...one more thing for the moment: one objective is to steal a chopper. now i want to force the player(s) to kill the crews and guards. my idea is, that the chopper is locked and the pilot has the keys, so you have to kill the pilot to unlock the chopper. is it possible to create such a thing as "keys" which unlock the chopper and put them in the pilots inventory? If you want the keys in the pilots' inventory, you need a key-addon. But you can simulate it with addaction. An addaction "Take key" And an other one "Unlock Heli" I can make you an example by tommorow. (I'm at work now, I don't wanna make any mistakes... ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Specter 0 Posted December 24, 2003 new day, new ideas, new questions: well, only one for now: i know how to make an ai-plane take off, but how can i make it take off, fly some time, then land again, refuel, take off again and so on... especially the landing gives me a headche...

Specter 0 Posted December 24, 2003 i know it's x-mas and you people have better things to do then help me, but i think it's time to summarize my open questions: 1) the boatcrew still doesn't shoot the boat. they all have ak74's, setbehaviour is "safe" setcombatmode is "red" 2) i need an action "take key" (which blanco makes for me, i hope) 3) i want an ai-plane to take off, fly a patrol, then land, refuel and take off again and so on... 4) i want to make a respawn, but it should only be available when objective 1 and 2 are completed. so when a player dies before those objectives are completed he/she should be a seagull (hope thats the right spelling) and as soon as the objectives are done the player should respawn. >>edit: happy x-mas<< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blanco 0 Posted December 24, 2003 Specter, I've made you two examples.

Specter 0 Posted December 24, 2003 ok thanks, i'll test it tomorow. yes, it's a coop-mission for 6 players Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Specter 0 Posted December 25, 2003 it works, thanks Blanco. 1) the boatcrew still doesn't shoot the boat. they all have ak74's, setbehaviour is "safe" setcombatmode is "red" 2) i want an ai-plane to take off, fly a patrol, then land, refuel and take off again and so on... 3) i want to make a respawn, but it should only be available when objective 1 and 2 are completed. so when a player dies before those objectives are completed he/she should be a seagull (hope thats the right spelling) and as soon as the objectives are done the player should respawn.

Taurus 20 Posted December 31, 2003 it works, thanks Blanco.1) the boatcrew still doesn't shoot the boat. they all have ak74's, setbehaviour is "safe" setcombatmode is "red" 2) i want an ai-plane to take off, fly a patrol, then land, refuel and take off again and so on... 3) i want to make a respawn, but it should only be available when objective 1 and 2 are completed. so when a player dies before those objectives are completed he/she should be a seagull (hope thats the right spelling) and as soon as the objectives are done the player should respawn. 1: If you mean that the passengers of the boat is to fire upon another boat, this is not possible. If you want the gunner to shoot at that other boat (gunner yourBoatName) doTarget nameofOtheBoat (gunner yourBoatName) doFire nameofOtheBoat should do the trick 2: place an AI plane near/on the airfield. make waypoint (search and destroy) where you want the plane to patrol. make one other waypoint on the airstrip on activation nameofplane land "land" make yet another waypoint near an fueltruck, place an trigger near the fueltruck activation: the side of the airplane, may it be east or west, or perhaps civilan condition: nameofplane in (list triggername) on activation: nameofplane setFuel 1 place the last waypoint somewhere where it doesn't look to odd(possible path of the plane on the taxirunway) make it of type cycle 3: unfortunatly I think it is not possible to change classes(object types) of players in runtime. that would be nice if worked. This would make "conditional" spawning possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Specter 0 Posted December 31, 2003 No, i don't mean the crew onboard. I mean a group of soldiers who are usually the boatcrew, but they kind of take a break and sit around a campfire near the boat. So normal soldiers should fire upon the boat. Or to precise: the passengers of the boat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So normal soldiers should fire upon the boat. Or to precise: the passengers of the boat. AH! Well then, that's another problem. Normal soldiers doesn't see boats as threats, or possible units for them to destroy, as you can't order a soldier to attack an BMP with it's grenades, even if it's possible. soldiers carrying LAW's will attack it, others will not. the same goes for most units. e.g. soldiers doesn't attack helicopters except if the helicopter is an UH-60 and the soldier is carrying an MG T-72's and M-60's doesn't attack helicopters either. T-80's and M1A1 will. Perhaps if you increase the skill of your soldiers sitting next to the campfire, they will start firing upon the boat, but don't be disappointed if they don't do it.

Taurus 20 Posted January 8, 2004 Nobody knows? I do not understand your previous question. If you want to "win" when two peoples are dead make a trigger !(alive unit1) && !(alive unit1) make this an "win" trigger, look in the readme.chm file on the cd, ther's an good but simple tutorial how to do this. if you want anything else, please specify exactly what you want.
