"Detected by..." trigger: HOW to activate it???

[falagar 0]

Hy everyone,

i need a trigger could be activated when one of my units is spotted by enemy...

I was suggested to use "Detected by..." option in trigger set but it doesn't work ...

I set the following options, (assuming i lead a NATO group units) leaving the other ones as default:

Side : West

Detected by: West

Are these options correct?

I tried several time this trigger(i took a M1A tank and standing in front of a soviet soldier 2 meters apart trigger did not activate! ).

Probably i do not set trigger in a right way...

Can You help me?

Thank You

detected by off course requires the side you want to

be detected of.

If you are West and your enemy is East then it's:

West detected by East

So i should simply set:

Side : West

Detected by : East

that's enough, is it correct?

Make sure it's big enough to cover the area you want the detection to take place in. I'm pretty sure that's an issue anyways.

That's correct yeah

ColonelSanderLite, that you are pretty sure this should be an issue anyways i don't understand now

However, the context is true - the trigger's size needs

to cover the area in which you want that west gets

detected by east.

Just for info: a simple 'Sentry' waypoint for an eastern group returns exactly the same result as a side detected by other_side trigger with just the difference that you don't

need to specify an area and that it's for an individual group

to detect any enemy unit.

I was meaning that I'm pretty sure the size of the tirgger is relevent to the area that will trigger it, however, as I haven't actually *done* that in forever, I wasn't positive.

You just confirmed it though
