Unit Hold Time

[nicko_bud 10]

Hi All,

I'm VERY new to the whole process and i have read as many tutorials/ forums as i can + search to try and help me with this.

I was wondering if you can specify a time for a waypoint chain to be activate?

Scenario: i have a insurgent pilot (assasination sub-mission)that needs to travel from point A to B i need to give my bluefor team long enough time to get to the point and clear oobjectives on the way.

Thanks and sorry if its a noobish question

You can specify a timeout at each waypoint where the unit stops until the time is over.

So let's say you want to make the pilot wait at the first waypoint for 10 minutes, then you add the value 600 (seconds) at all 3 timeout fields (min, max, mid).

OK.. i'm officially an idiot :P

Thanks wolle.. was looking to hold on activation.. not hold at a specific point

In this case you can work with the lockWP command.

Like if he is reaching a certain point he activates a trigger (grouped with the pilot so only he activates it) and in the triggers onActivation line you type:

pilot1 lockWP true (pilot1 is his name)

and if he shall continue you let him continue in a second trigger with:

pilot1 lockWP false
