Sitting on an object

[aook002 0]

I was just wondering if it was possible to make a unit sit down on a chair or something as you can make units sitdown on the floor using code.

I know how use the action command to make them sit down on the floor using the command:

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

Its just that i'm making  a mission and wanting to show like a commander giving a briefing to soldiers

for this you will need to use a trigger.

on activation: man1 setbehaviour "careless"

man1 switchmove "onchair"

And the "onchair" is the name of the chair?

Ok, i get it now.

But i have a problem  

The man goes into the 'sitting' position but how do I get him to sit on the chair exactly? Because he always seems to be not on the chair properly.

My man is floating above the chair!!! Help ME!!!

Try this use a chair x in the empty objects.

make a west unit and call him a

make a trigger activated by west

in the on activation put this

a switchmove "Fxstandunivtable"

move the unit or the chair a few times till u get it perfect

repeat the stuff above if you want more soldiers sitting, but just change name of next unit to b,c, and so on

also what is that command to make the units height lower or higher

This setpos something .....

How do I place a unit on a certain height?

Put into init.field:

Code Sample

this setpos [(getpos this select 0), (getpos this select 1), 4]

change 4 above to whatever height

Another technique for setting a unit's height is this:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">unit setpos [getpos this select 0, getpos this select 1, (getpos this select 2) + x]

Where x is the number of meters that you want the unit to be lifted.
