How to change side of units?

[vintorez 250]

Hi everyone. I want in my mission to change the ChDKZ side in this way that Russian side will treat them as enemies. What script to use in order to change faction the ChDKZ on for example CDF?

Thank you :bounce3:

Excuse me, but I didn't quite understand this.

West means BLUFOR, East means OPFOR and Resistance means NAPA, right? So how can you make two East factions hostile to each other? Shouldn't it have a more specific definition of the faction, like for example:

ChDKZ setFriend [East, 0];

East setFriend [ChDKZ, 0];

I know it doesn't work like that, but I'm also designing a mission with Russia vs. ChDKZ, and am searching a more sophisticated way of making them hostile than the good old "making-an-invisible-West-officer" trick.

Sorry to dig up an old thread but I am wondering the same thing as above post.

Although, I'm trying to make the ChDKZ friendly to West and enemy to East.

Because they are inner factions, you cannot use the set friend command. Howerer if you create a (West) group then join them to it, you should be fine.

Ie:

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/createGroup

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/joinSilent

_side = createCenter WEST;
_group = createGroup _SIDE;
[_unit] joinSilent _group;
_units joinSilent _group;

Remember it must be [] joinSilent (ie an array). Check the BIKI if you have trouble with parameters, if you don't understand the logic, I'll go into more depth for you.
