thanx form heads up mate

but how do i do this

if only night time option is selected

daytime command!

Lets say the daytime is set as param1 in the description.ext file.

In your init file you check the value.

? (param1 == "Night"):setdate(...);{setskill x} forEach units ...;

Hope it helps.

thanx for replys but this has got me stumped

heres what i got

description ext

//////////////////////////////

titleParam1 = "START TIME:";

valuesParam1[] =

{0,9,};

defValueParam1 = 0;

textsParam1[] =

{"dusk attack","dawn attack",};

///////////////////////////////

in my init sqs i have

skiptime param 1

how exactly do i set then check the values so if night is selected i can lower the skil level of the ai or if daytime is selected i can raise the skill of the ai

many thanx in advance

As I've understood, setSkill_array isn't properly implemended yet - can any confirm this?

Well, if you actually click the link for the array version, this is what it says in the top row:

This is a reserved keyword for future implementations. In Armed Assault it is not implemented yet.

So...

Sorry, couldn't resist

Someone remove it from arma scripting command list then.

I bet there are mission makers out there able to give a good answer to this question.

Edit: typing

[scars09 9]

trigger

delete the true write in param1

action:

{_x setskill whatever} foreach units groupname

or to cover all units easily

make a real big (combat area covering) trigger wich is triggered by side (west,east)

activation: true and param1

action:

{_x setskill whatever} foreach units list triggername

Try to keep in mind that there is actually an v1.09 patch, which could mean that this information is out of date? Hence my reply.
