Hi! I have this code that I run when my task is completed [C1,"HMMWV_M2"] call BIS_fnc_supplyDrop Then I get a new mission and so on... Now... if my HMMWV_M2 is destroyed by enemy Can I have something like the reinforcement code that is when you play SOM mission and your squad member got killed. Then you got a new squad member, right. How to make that happend with this HMMWV_M2? Any idea where I can look, and where to start?

How to make chopper stand still and wait for "frank"/_group_2 ??? And when "frank" is inside chopper, then chopper go to waypoint "_waypoint_1" Now the chopper is unload the squad, then chopper fly away. frank and car is on there way to the chopper at that time, so I need to get the chopper to wait for him. How to?

I am using some of this code: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=77397&highlight=BIS_fnc_supplyDrop By Tajin This is how my code look like now. _spawntype = "HMMWV_M2"; _bpos = C1 ModelToWorld [0,-12,-5.5]; _bomb = _spawntype createVehicle _bpos; _bomb setpos _bpos; _bomb setDir direction _bpos; _chute = "ParachuteMediumWest" createVehicle getpos _bomb; _chute setpos (_bomb ModelToWorld [0,0,3]); _bomb attachTo [_chute,[0,0,0]]; sleep 0.05; Ok, I have a C-130J named C1 on my map who is flying. When my code is in action, there is a spawn of a HMMWV_M2 and its moving towards the ground. But now Chute is there, I cant get this chute to spawn and attachTo the car. Whats wrong?

_spawntype = "HMMWV_M2"; _bpos = C1 ModelToWorld [0,-12,-5.5]; _bomb = _spawntype createVehicle _bpos; _bomb setpos _bpos; _bomb setDir direction C1; _chute = "ParachuteMediumWest" createVehicle getpos _bomb; _chute setpos (_bomb ModelToWorld [0,0,3]); _bomb attachTo [_chute,[0,0,0]]; sleep 0.05; If u mean this? That did not work. =(

This works In trigger activation: nul=[] execVM "test.sqf" // test.sqf _this setTriggerStatements ["C1 distance player<= 400;", "[C1,""HMMWV_Armored""] call BIS_fnc_supplyDrop;", ""]; But this wont work. Why? How can I make this to work right? nul=[HMMWV_Armored] execVM "test.sqf" // test.sqf _type = _this select 0; _this setTriggerStatements ["C1 distance player<= 400;", "[C1,""_type""] call BIS_fnc_supplyDrop;", ""]; I have try this to [C1,"_type"] and [C1,_type] But I cant get it to work.

Thanks, I will try that later. One more question This works _wpt1 setWaypointStatements ["true", "[medic] join player"]; with this _unit = _group_2 createUnit [_spawntype, _spawnPoint, [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit setVehicleVarName "medic"; medic = _unit; Why is this not working and how to get it to work _wpt1 setWaypointStatements ["true", "[_unit] join player"]; If I can get this to work, I dont need to name my units that I am spawning, it really should help me out if I could get them to join me without names. and I cant get deleteVehicle to work _wpt2 = _group_1 addWaypoint[_spawnPoint,50]; _wpt2 setwaypointtype "MOVE"; _wpt2 setWaypointStatements ["true", "deleteVehicle _vehicle_1"]; My chopper is moving to that _spawnPoint, but they dont delete it. How can I delete stuff when they have arrived to a move point?

Sorry, still not working _this = createTrigger ["EmptyDetector", [0,0,0]]; _this setTriggerArea [0, 0, 0, true]; _this setTriggerActivation ["NONE", "PRESENT", false]; _this setTriggerStatements ["C1 distance player<= 400;", "[C1,_type] call BIS_fnc_supplyDrop;", ""]; _trigger_0 = _this; hint format ["%1",triggerStatements _trigger_0]; My hint is saying [C1, _type] when I use that. when I use _this setTriggerStatements ["C1 distance player<= 400;", "[C1, ""HMMWV_Armored""] call BIS_fnc_supplyDrop;", ""]; My hint is telling me the right stuff: [C1, HMMWV_Armored] So, I still got something wrong.

And the answer is?

How to make a AI to pickup a car with heli and put it down at a place?

Ok, I have this in one other thread, but that thread is about eject, and now my eject are working. But its not working as I would like it to. Check this. Working {unassignvehicle _x;} foreach units _leader; {_x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new];} foreach units _leader; NOT working { unassignvehicle _x; _x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new]; sleep 0.5; } foreach units _leader; I cant get this second code to work. Why cant I that? This code seems to work for others when using in it. But mine is not working, I cant get this sleep to work. Please help.

I have one chopper named "heli" and in the heli is a soldier named "gunner" chopper is going to a waypoint and when heli is there the soldier is leaving the chopper _wpt0 = _group_0 addWaypoint[position base_heli_land,10]; _wpt0 setwaypointtype "MOVE"; _wpt0 setWaypointStatements ["heli distance heli_land<= 100", "unassignVehicle gunner;"]; and that is fine and working, now the chopper is standing still with engine running, and that is also good. Part 2: I have a vehivle and a driver. They have a waypoint to the same spot as the chopper are standing now. And here is what I want: I want that the chopper is waiting and waiting for the driver in the vehicle to come in the cargo at the chopper. I have a waypoint for the driver, and when done the driver is leave vehicle. _wpt3 = _group_2 addWaypoint[position base_heli_land,30]; _wpt3 setwaypointtype "MOVE"; _wpt3 setWaypointStatements ["true", "unassignVehicle driver;"]; Now, I want that driver is creating a waypoint to get in the chopper. and when driver is in the chopper, the chopper can leave the area. How can I do it?

yeah, but how to set up a triggername in sqf code, can that be done?

Can I create that the game is saving at a trigger or by code in a sqf file? How does that code look like? (to make a save code)

wrong post

I can get out a squad from a chopper with this _waypoint1 = _group_0 addwaypoint[position eject1,250]; _waypoint1 setwaypointtype "MOVE"; _waypoint1 setWaypointStatements ["true", "{unassignvehicle _x;} foreach units ai; {_x action [""EJECT"", heli];} foreach units ai;"]; But the same code dont work with a Vodnik. _waypoint4 setWaypointStatements ["true", "{unassignvehicle _x;} foreach units a2; {_x action [""EJECT"", vodnik];} foreach units a2;"]; ai are the same as a2 and name of vehicle is vodnik instead of heli, same code, but my squad will not get out... how come? ---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ---------- Answer: I have forgotten to add "_group_# = CreateGroup East;" at every groups. It works now

Thanks, but the second one is not working, they dont eject =/ Working {unassignvehicle _x;} foreach units _leader; {_x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new];} foreach units _leader; NOT working { unassignvehicle _x; _x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new]; sleep 0.5; } foreach units _leader;

I have read some, and I am trying to create some stuff. Here I am creating a chopper, and two pilots, and make them to get in. and this works for me. Pilots = CreateGroup East; _vcl_new = "Mi17_rockets_RU" createVehicle [(position start_heli select 0)+1, (position start_heli select 1)+1,0]; _vcl_new setVehicleVarName "heli"; _crewPilot0 = Pilots createUnit ["RU_Soldier_Crew", [(position start_pilot) select 0,(position start_pilot) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _crewPilot1 = Pilots createUnit ["RU_Soldier_Crew", [(position start_pilot) select 0,(position start_pilot) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _crewPilot0 moveinDriver _vcl_new; _crewPilot1 moveinCargo _vcl_new; Next step is to create a squad. This also works fine for me. GroupSquad1 = CreateGroup East; _leader = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_SL", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_MG", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_AT", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_LAT", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_Marksman", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_LAT", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_AR", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _unit = GroupSquad1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_GL", [(position start_soldier) select 0,(position start_soldier) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; _leader = leader GroupSquad1; {_x moveInCargo _vcl_new} foreach units _leader; Now I will create some move for the chopper. This also works fine for me. _vcl_new move (position flyTo1); @_vcl_new distance flyTo1 < 130; _vcl_new move (position eject); @_vcl_new distance eject < 130; And now we are at the part where I get error. I want to eject my squad, I have this code for that _group = _this select 0; _vehicle = _this select 1; if ( (typename _group != "GROUP") or (typename _vehicle != "OBJECT") ) exitwith { hintSilent "Invalid Parameters parsed"; }; sleep 1; { unassignvehicle _x; _x action ["EJECT", _vehicle]; sleep 0.5; } foreach units _group; Now, I have try some out, like: _group = _leader; _vehicle = _vcl_new; And _group = GroupSquad1; _vehicle = heli; At the top of the eject code, instead of: _group = _this select 0; _vehicle = _this select 1; But I cant get it to work, my men will not eject. why? How can I do so they will eject? And please, its my first time here, and my first code and script of this game. I have no experience of arma or arma2 at all. and not there codes and so on. I was learning from this forum and from this site tonight: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Scripting_Commands_ArmA2 thanks

This work: {unassignvehicle _x} foreach units _leader; {_x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new]} foreach units _leader; This NOT work: { unassignvehicle _x; _x action ["EJECT", _vcl_new]; sleep 0.5 } foreach units _leader; Why?

I use this in one other code I use to get a squad to a chopper, then eject and so on... _leader = _Grp1 createUnit ["RU_Soldier_SL", [(position _pos) select 0,(position _pos) select 1,0], [], 3, "FORM"]; Now, I want to get some more. How to put in this, where and how do I do it?: -Rank (CAPTAIN) -Skill (0.7) -Init (this addWeapon binocular)

You maybe can use Revive, and still use SecOps?

I have finaly got it to work ok. Maybe someone could optimize this, but it all works fine here now. I dont know if it work in MP or so.
