Attaching a Trigger to a vehicle

[jdmt 12]

I'm trying to use this: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/triggerAttachVehicle

But the trigger doesn't attach to the vehicle.

I want to improve that so the trigger is attached to the VBIED, vs. having a stationary convoy.

Which vehicle has the trigger attached to it - the civ?

It looks like it works? Or are you saying that if the Hummer is moving, the trigger doesn't work?

Sorry if I'm just being painfully dense. :D

I want it attached to the car.

Currently it's sitting around the HMMWV. I want the HMMWV to move.

Can't you just script? so if CAR1 NearestObject == Hummer then Exec IED script

(Thats pseudocode btw... dont try it :D)

Mmmm all this is very confusing. TriggerattachVehicle doesn't physically attach any trigger to a vehicle, but it does the same thing than when you group (F2) a trigger to a unit in the mission editor, so that only this unit can trigger the trigger.

As we don't know what your trigger does (apart from creating an explosion), we can't help you. Post the condition and activation line of this trigger.

I don't intend to beta test your mission, just explain what your trigger does.

If your talking about attaching a trigger made with the in game editor it's quite simple

trigname attachTo [vehiclename,[0,0,0]]

That did it, thanks.
