DecimusAquila 0 Posted February 20, 2007 Salute coders, Please need help on 2 things to complete my mission to its final. I am not good at scripting so I use and commands within the game via activation, ini in triggers and waypoints. So far things have been going excellent without scripting and trying to avoid the scripts (scary thing). <span style='color:blue'>First help... How can I make another ally squad (not HQ) side chat with me using the trigger (the command and where to add them)?</span> <span style='color:red'>Second help... How can I call for artillery backup fire on an enemy position, map or an enemy object? Also will calling for fighter bomber strike backup be the same as artillery strike backup command wise?</span> I have looked at a lot of threads here and please forgive me if I repeat these questions, I must have missed it if somewhere here. I saw Mr-Murray's downloads but I am not understanding where to add some files and scripts made. I was hoping if the ways could be explained via within the map editor itself useing certain commands. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

=jps=sgtrock 4 Posted February 21, 2007 Simple typo? "blah" vs. "Blah"? Note, I know nothing about coding in either of BI's scripting languages. I've just had painful experience with languages that get case sensitive at the strangest times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
