  1. One bug : If I don't reach ambush point and I kill res.leader mission doesn't end with my arrival to camp. Make some trigger in camp that ends mission even player doesn't reach ambush point.

    BTW: try to learn how to post links in forum. Use http:// button on the top of edit window. Your link should looks like:

    http://www.geocities.com/diplomacy84/Spetznaz13.zip or download my mission

    And you could mention me in readme.txt as betatester. smile.gif

    edit:some problems with links, it must start with http://


  2. Some tips :

    -If you want ships to go through narrow parts place there more waypoints that will be navigating them.

    -For boarding ship: if you don't need to see soldiers boarding ship is better to use init line. Place this line to leaders init box and whole group will be in boat.

    "_x moveincargo shipName" foreach (units group this)

    -For disembarking: place unload cargo wp (for ship) and get out wp (for men) to land. Ship is capable partly move from sea.


  3. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote (themoffster @ April 04 2002,05<!--emo&:0)</td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">I`ve found out that you do "unitname removeaction 0", this removes the action with index = 0. But how do I see what number corresponds to which index value?<span id='postcolor'>

    This is from official scripting reference :

    unit addAction action

    Operand types:

       unit: Object

       action: Array

    Compatibility:

       Version 1.1 required.

    Type of returned value:

       None

    Description:

       Create an action. Action ID should be returned, but due to bug it is not. To determine action ID use following algorithm: first action added to given vehicle has ID zero, next has ID one, etc.

    Example:

       player addAction ["Hello", "hello.sqs"]


  4. Names of weapons and magazines can be found in Unofficial Operation Flashpoint Command Reference Manual Version 1.04 - command addweapon

    (download this document from second link Big_D posts)

    And here are names from official upgrades:

    weapon/magazine

    Kozlice/KozliceBall KozliceShell  

    G36a/G36amag  

    Steyr/SteyrMag  

    XMS/M4  

    Bizon/BizonMag  

    MM1/MM1magazine

    6g30/6g30magazine

    LaserDesignator/LaserDesignator


  5. -Trhee grenades are enought, magazines are more needed.

    -Give to 2nd specnas similar equipment as 1st one has.

    -I think it's unusual that two officers alone are going to mission. Usual is sergant or corporal with private. (or officer with private or corporal)

    -Don't synchronize start of uaz with spacnas arrival to ambush point. Just let uaz start after some period of time so if player loiter and doesn't follow orders uaz reach its base.


  6. Run script after heli is destroyed + few second after it. Heli must be placed on flat ground without near obstacles beacuse of wreck moving.

    </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_dir=getdir helo1

    _x=-1.1*sin _dir

    _y=-1.1*cos _dir

    fire1 setpos [(getpos helo1 select 0)+_x,(getpos helo1 select 1) +_y,(getpos helo1 select 2) +1]

    fire2 setpos [(getpos helo1 select 0)+_x,(getpos helo1 select 1) +_y,(getpos helo1 select 2) +1]

    fire3 setpos [(getpos helo1 select 0)+_x,(getpos helo1 select 1) +_y,(getpos helo1 select 2) +1.3]<span id='postcolor'>

    If you'll use this, mention me in credists. biggrin.gif


  7. Make your short mission litlle bit realistic.

    -give to specnas binocular instead of nvgoggles. It's a midday mission and they must wait for someone so they must can see if is he coming, if is he only with his bodyguard as intel says and they must scan horizont because of enemy patrols

    -let resistance leader go by car driven by his bodyguard. It looks better then two resistance sportsmen - and it's more fun to shoot someone in moving car.


  8. Place for civilian wp Hold position and he will stay on place.

    For you team place move wp in loacation of civilian - not join wp.

    Then make, anywhere on map, trigger with 0,0 axis, activated by nobody once,

    condition : (player distance civilianName)<5

    on activation : [civilianName] join player.

    Civilian will wait in location and he join your group if you go near to him.


  9. If you are East and you want all West dead make trigger that covers area and set activated by West - not present. Make area of trigger little bit bigger than guarding area because that would work even West run from this area. If you want even all Resistance dead make another trigger with actvated by Resistance -not present and place it to same location as previous trigger.

    If you want avoid fleeing guarding soldiers place this line to each defending group commander's init line :

    "_x allowFleeing 0" foreach (units group this)

    They will fight to death.


  10. Another idea for your mission :

    somewhere in abadoned village can be a hidden civilian who can join jour party. When he is in your party he tell you he is good at fixing cars (I mean when car can not start not when it is destroyed) and when you come with him to broken v3s, where you joined with one member of your team, he can fix it (unlock vehicle) and you can add another award for your mission.
