Scrub 0 Posted April 22, 2007 Hi, I was wondering a few things that others probably know already and would care to share.. 1- Is there a way in an addon, when it is placed in the editor and previewed, it can call up other objects and place them if the coordinates are known? i.e. init script? 2- Are the units ingame actually ~1.8m tall? 3- About how high off the ground is a rifle barrel when kneeling? 4- Making the AI follow roadways - can they now drive over other, seperate paths? Like a highway overpass? Thanks for any help. Scrub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sled88 0 Posted April 22, 2007 Interessting questions... 1. I would say yes... I think the old CTI's from OFP do the same... 2. Isn't there a different height between them? 3. 0.8m - 1.10m I would say... 4. I think the AI still isn't able to do that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fasad 1 Posted April 22, 2007 4: In OFP, I had AI driving in a figure 8 loop or road, under then over a bridge, repeating forever if that's what you mean? If that was not meant to be possible I wish I kept the wrp! In ArmA, individual solders will go under and over bridges. Although they still choose to find other ways, such as swimming.

Scrub 0 Posted April 22, 2007 Thank you, the the addon I'm thinking about that would call objects is a building, several actually. I thought about passing the location of rooms to whoever will finish it (prepare for future begging of help ) so it will be easier to furnish with objects. Then had a thought to have the addon able to have parameters passed that would do just that (wall, fountain, garden, residence 1,2,3..., business 1,2,3...) that would flesh out the features. I figure this is how it could be done: 1- The person places the object in the editor, positions it, rotates it, makes the call in the init line for some features and hits preview. 2- Using axis translation calculations common in basic game design, all preset feature X/Y values are altered from the base setting of 0, for the current rotation of the base object and created in-situ... Very good to hear about the figure '8' BTW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrub 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Just a few more questions for the addon enlightened... Anyone know the the actual height/width/length of an ingame hummer, M1 or T-72, and motorcycle? Please and thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
