Grouping problems. (noob alert)

[matt54 0]

ok in the editor im trying to make a group enter a uh60. i use this to name the group

for the group:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">chalk1 = group this

for the chopper:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">uh60 = group this

then on the load waypoint in the init field i put:

(when i do this waypoint, it says something like "expecting object "chalk1;" no object" or something allong those lines.)

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"_x assignascargo uh60" foreach units chalk1; "[_x] ordergetin true" foreach units chalk1

for BAS fastroping insertion waypoint:

(almost the same error above, expected a object in "chalk1;")

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">uh60 exec "\BAS_mah60\FX\BAS_AIRope.sqs"

Am i doing this right, or did i screw up somewhere when i named the groups?

Thanks in advanced.

A uh60 (or any non-man unit) is a vehicle.

A group is made up of man units, ie you cannot board a group.

try:

uh60 = vehicle this

or

uh60 = this

Both will refer to the vehicle itself.

Almost have forgotten it.How to make the unit to join some team? What command? Smth like "assign"?

[sanctuary 19]

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

to get a soldier from a group being removed from that group

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

Sanctuary has it. For extra units, add them thus,

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">[unit,nextunit,nextunit,etc] join mygroup

[sanctuary 19]

another join usage , when you have a group and you want this group to join a single soldier to be under his command.

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

all you need is modify NAMEOFTHEGROUP to the name you assignated to a group, and NAMEOFTHESOLDIER being the name of the soldier that will be the new leader of the group joining him.

But remember a group in OFP has a maximum of 12 soldiers, leader included, so do not make a 12 units squad to join a soldier.
