  1. Hi, for your first question;yes you can make them walk insted off running by puthing the speed in the waypoint to limited, this way they will walk calm around and follow their WP,

    for your second question:Guard means they will guard the spot,attack any hostiles and return to the guard WP to guard it again,and when you place a WP you can give it a "radius" off 0 to wathever you want(100,500,1000,...) Its in middle when you click on the WP, called "starting radius"

    Hope its some help and good luck!

  2. Hi and welcome, Its indeed a bit hard to get the grips off commanding the AI in a way they dont get shot after 5 sec in the fight, best way is to train yourself in the editor in commanding the AI in all the freedom you want without enemy units shooting you. Learn the commands and formations off your units and when you think your ready you can trow in some unfriendly's and go hunting,

    for the campaign there are some bugs in there but with the latest patch most bugs are fixed, if you run dry on ammo search the enemy's for weapons and ammo,same for squadmembers.

    when you start to know how to command the AI you can do some more difficult stuff like boarding choppers and dropping them on the battlefield,use support and arty to suppress enemy or to heal and fix any friendlies,...!

    Just dont give up, its a bit hard but with a little training it can become more fun then you imagined.

    Also read this forum and look for stuff that can help you out,and there is always someone that will reply to your questions(mostly friendly:D),and there is lots off stuff around that increases the fun bigtime,like Islands,units,vehicles,mods,scripts,...

    Good luck and hope you can still have fun with Arma.

    Cya


  3. Hi, dont know if this would work but its worth a shot; Place the marker on top off the building, make sure its in the right spot and the puth in the markers init: setPos [getPos this select 0,getPos this select 1,15];

    So basicly its same what sxp2high mentioned but the height is applied on the respawn marker so it mayby make you respawn on that height.

    Gone test it to see if it will work or not,

    later

    Edit: forget what i said about the marker cause if forgot you cant puth code in a marker , and placing it on a building will force you to respawn outside,it works on bunkers and small low lvl building, used plenty off times in my missions but no idea to get them to spawn on roof or something.


  4. Hi, its a nice idea and most off your questions can be easy solved by some scripts that are already around. the 144 unit limits is for 1 group but you can place more than 1 group on the map so units numbers wont be a problem.

    think the hardest part will be the station model and getting it in the game,

    There are tons off tutorials and guides on how to do it,and there are lots off guys here that can help you out with any problem you encounter.

    Good luck
