you'll need two scripts, one trigger, one variable, groups and abit of patients.

we start with the trigger

set it to the values you want

then in the onactivation: yourtriggervariable=true

then the groups

in the initline of each of the officers

groupX=group this;[groupX] exec "placedead.sqs"

do this for all groups in the game, replace x with an number(postfix?)

placedead.sqs:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

?!(local Server): exit

_group = _this select 0

;;for the loop below, to see how many times it will iterate over the array(group)

_count = count units _group

_x1=0

#Loop

[(units _group select _x1)] exec "removedead.sqs"

~0.2

_x1 = _x1 + 1

?(_x1 < _count): goto "Loop"

exit

removedead.sqs<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

_unit = _this select 0

;;wait here until someone entered the trigger

@yourtriggervariable

;;oly if the unit is dead

@!(alive _unit)

;;move it, as OFP doesn't allways respond to the command below(deleteVehicle), in this way we get rid of it anyway as it doesn't need to be rendered.

_unit setPos [0,0,0]

;;wait one second

~1

;;delete it

deleteVehicle _unit

exit

hope this helps-

[ edit]

perhaps this will work as well,

keep your "delete dead" trigger from above.

and keep your "removedead.sqs" script.

place another trigger,

x: 1000 y: 1000

(so it covers all the combatarea)

activation:anybody

min: 1,

(so it waits one second)

condition: this

onActivation: [thislist] exec "whatever.sqs"

whatever.sqs<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

_trigger = _this select 0

_list = list _trigger

_count = count _list

_x1=0

#Loop

[(_list select _x1)] exec "removedead.sqs"

~0.2

_x1 = _x1 + 1

?(_x1 < _count): goto "Loop"

this should work I hope, hasn't tried it.

however, it has one limitation, it will only work once, not if you respawn groups again, then you'll need the example above
