Hide radio command

[Ionflux 0]

Hey guys, cant believe I am struggling with this . I basically want to make my extraction radio command hidden until I reach a trigger that will enable the user to call in for the extraction. I have searched the forum but I cant seem to find anything. Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

flux

Could you set a requirement for the block of code that creates the trigger? That way, the radio trigger doesn't exist until the requirement is met. Say, with a waitUntil command, or something similar that would work for your particular requirements?

setTriggerActivation

Give your 'call for extraction' trigger a name (i.e.: triggerExtraction)

in the mission editor set that trigger to:   Activation: NONE

You'll make it available to the players by running this command:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">triggerExtraction setTriggerActivation ["ALPHA","PRESENT",false];

In the Init.sqf or .sqs:

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

1 setRadioMsg "NULL";

In the trigger:

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

1 setRadioMsg "Call for extraction"

Hey Reaper thanks for the reply. I cant seem to get it working though   . I put it to a simple test.

I created a squad and gave them 2 waypoints. The first waypoint I put hold. The second waypoint move. Then I created the trigger, I Synchronized the trigger with the hold waypoint. Then I did what you said,

I put this in my Init.sqs:

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

1 setRadioMsg "NULL";

I put this in my trigger condition:

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

1 setRadioMsg "Team Alpha attack"; this

To make sure the trigger is working I put this in my on Act:

Quote[/b] ]

Alpha SideChat "(Team Alpha) Rodger! Yes sir, moving now.";

If I put the activation of the trigger on BLUFOR then they just move and I cant use the radio. If you can give me any advice on what to do I would really, really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

For hide a radio message until it's necessary to use it:

Example:

Create a trigger that launch the radio message:

Activation: Radio Alpha

Condition: this

On Act: Leader YourGroup SideRadio "Radio1"

Hide the command that launch the radio message, add this line in the init file:

1 setRadioMsg "NULL";

In the trigger that make appear the message when you want:

Activation: "as you wish"

Condition: "as you wish"

On Act: 1 setRadioMsg "Call for extraction"

Then in game, and when the last trigger is triggered:

tape 0-1 (if i'm not wrong)

The radio message will not appear until the last trigger is triggered, so on the extraction zone for the example.
