Trigger - Help

[Wastelander 10]

Hi,

New to edititing... :j: :) :confused:

Need to add trigger (I think) so when the good guys take over area/objective it produces a Green Circle or something similar so can see that area is clear on the map view.

Need step by step if possible.

I have downloaded several doccos and printed Mr Murry's guide.

I must be missing something. :(

Thanks - In anticipation.

The actual code for making a marker is simple:

_zone = createMarker [_zoneName, getPos _zoneTrigger];

_zone setMarkerShape "ELLIPSE";

_zone setMarkerBrush "SOLID";

_zone setMarkerSize [_zoneRadius,_zoneRadius];

_zone setMarkerColor "ColorGreen";

However if you need the script to make it happen its a whole different beast. You'd have to specify more in order for anyone to help you. If its just a matter of checking how many enemies are inside the radius of a trigger or variable base execution, it should be fairly easy. If you want a looping capture based on presence and superiority with two teams, its much more code.

Or you can try the PvP script templates, should be just to search the forums. If you're new to editing, not doing any editing can save you some headache ;)

The simplest way to do it would probably be:

1. Insert a marker named Area, color red and ellipse with the size you like.

2. Create a trigger same size as marker with the properties OPFOR, not present, once. In it's "On Act:" field put this:

"Area" setMarkerColor "ColorGreen";

Now when you start mission the circle is red and will turn green when opfor is not present in trigger area.

That should do it....

Tanks Heaps...

Keeping it simple and learning as I go...

It's all good....

Would be nice if the flamin AI were better pilots... I have given up on trying to keep then flyin around.... :-(

That's how I felt when I started ;)

Now workin on the briefing.sqf to add tasks and stuff...

That's if anyone reads the brief?

[Wastelander 10]

Most good...

Now have the zones changing from red to green - Excellent...

Now to add sound when it does this?

I have tried the actions but no joy?

I can get the TEXT to mes up with my entered text but...

Adding a universal sound would be GREAT!!

Adding sound, either using the ones built in or custom bits, is not hard. But you'll need to do a little research (in forums here or in Armaholic.com) to use custom ones. The built in stuff can be accessed through Effects in triggers.

How would you do the scripting for that?
