OldGrandad 0 Posted March 25, 2004 Ok, my scenario is that I have spawn triggers that spawn groups as I want. That is ok but what I want is for that group then to patrol within the trigger area. I have found a random patrol script so I am guessing that somehow I need to implement it into the spawn script which is as follows: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> ; *************************************** ; Operation Flashpoint Script ; *************************************** ; create units ; *************************************** ;------------------------------------------------------------- "OfficerE" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s25=this",1,"LIEUTENANT"] "SoldierEMG" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s26=this",0.8,"SERGEANT"] "SoldierEG" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s27=this",0.7,"CORPORAL"] "SoldierEG" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s28=this",0.7,"CORPORAL"] "SoldierELAW" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s29=this",0.6,"PRIVATE"] "SoldierEMedic" createunit [getMarkerPos "inf4",east5,"s30=this",0.6,"PRIVATE"] ~3 east5 move getmarkerpos "inf4move" ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ;End of Soldiers and Beginning of Tanks ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------- _tank6 = "BMP2" createvehicle getmarkerpos "tank1" ~2 "SoldierECrew" createunit [getmarkerpos "inf4",armor6,"c18=this",0.8,"SERGEANT"] "SoldierECrew" createunit [getmarkerpos "inf4",armor6,"c19=this",0.8,"CORPORAL"] "SoldierECrew" createunit [getmarkerpos "inf4",armor6,"c20=this",0.8,"PRIVATE"] ~2 c18 moveincommander _tank6 c19 moveingunner _tank6 c20 moveindriver _tank6 ~2 armor6 move getmarkerpos "tank1move" ;----------------------------------------------------------------------------- exit If someone can point a noob in the right direction I would be grateful. YES. I have tried as of yet unsuccessful search for an answer to my query  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Very interesting problem. Edit: noticed some missing [] and an extra } Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Replace [east5] exec "patrol.sqs" with your own line that execute your patroling script. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
