GameLogic as Waypoint for AI

[vengeance1 50]

How do I script a GameLogic so I can use it as a Waypoint for a Plane or Boat to got to.

Sorry if I missed the thread but could not find it.

In the editor or in a script?

In a script:

WayPoint = "Logic" createVehicleLocal getPos _yourWishedTargetPosition;

_group move getPos WayPoint;

Thanks SNKMAN I was thinking Editor in the GameLogic itself, I had the code once but can't find it. :(

Because I need to write some addtional script in the GameLogic once the vehicle gets there. Like the next waypoint.

then you could do it with triggers. Either way name them and do a DOMOVE nameoftrigger.

Ok how would I put that in?

I use this for a Marker

this doMove (getMarkerPos "Marker1");

If I use a Trigger I would use???

in onactivation

thislist select 0 move position heliWP1

and name the next trigger(waypoint) heliwp1. Sync all triggers to the veh and should work fine. BIS uses similar for a helo in first to fight mission.

dont!

they eat up performance quickly if used multiple times on a map, for nothing in this case !

markers are the best way to go, even better move units to objects, BuildingPos or use isFlatEmpty to find nice terrain spots ;)

Ok thanks for the input never did figure out how to use the GameLogic's, I ended up using Markers and Triggers at the marker to DoMove to next Marker and then Mando Heliroute to land on LHD. Works fine not sure that was the best way.
