    Im having a hard time getting this to work...

    I remember this worked before OA but now I just cant get it to work... I have 2 profiles in-game and they both have the same ID (I guess you cant change ID between players)

    On http://sh2.armatechsquad.com/ I have one player with the player ID found in my profile in-game.

    I can see that the player have joined the right squad:

    http://sh2.armatechsquad.com/squad/player_Sniper-C.xml

    http://sh2.armatechsquad.com/squad/army_DeadEcho.xml

    I have tried using both links in the squad box in the in-game profile but it is not working.

    Ideas?

    Strangly when I created the player on armatech I typed in the name Sniper_C since that is my in-game name but that was automatically changed to Sniper-C. I dont think that is why since im pretty sure the player is identified by the ID.

    shk> ye that working with the eventhandler but how do I group units together?

    _generalgrp = CreateGroup East;

    general = createVehicle ["RU_Commander", _pos, [], 0, "NONE"];

    general addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf";}];

    sold1 = createVehicle ["RUS_Soldier_GL", _pos, [], 0, "NONE"];

    sold1 addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf";}];

    Hey guys... im trying to add an event to a spawned unit... using createVehicle its works but then I cant link the rest of the group together (dont know how). Using createUnit they group up correctly but then the event handler wont work??

    _generalgrp = CreateGroup East;

//general = createVehicle ["RU_Commander", _pos, [], 0, "NONE"];

general = "RU_Commander" createUnit [_pos, _generalgrp];
general addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf";}];

    So what am I doing wrong?

    general = "RU_Commander" createUnit [_pos, _generalgrp];
general addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf";}];

    Dosent work with the event handler but gets grouped up correctly.

    general = createVehicle ["RU_Commander", _pos, [], 0, "NONE"];
general addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf";}];

    The eventhandler works but I cant seem to get the spawned unit to group up with _generalgrp.

    If I do a GETOUT on the waypoint insted of just move... it lands and the pilot jumps put... when I check the chopper the groups is inside... so they are there and they have mountet hehe :)

    And using call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; does create a group with a leader

    When you write: _xhandle=[squadName,VehicleName] execVM "jump.sqf";

    Do you then meen that its the name or the object reference? Casue im pretty sure im giving the object reference atm.

    And... does every AI need a parachute on them?

    I have just tried this:

    _heli = createVehicle ["Mi24_V", _pos, [], 0, "FLY"];

    _grp = [_pos, side, _units, [], [], skill] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;

    _wp2 setWaypointStatements ["true","_xhandle=[_grp,_heli] execVM ""test.sqf"";"];

    And the script is run since I see the hint.

    if (isServer) then {

    hint "1";

    _group = _this select 0;

    _vehicle = _this select 1;

    sleep 2;

    {

    unassignvehicle _x;

    _x action ["EJECT", _vehicle];

    sleep 0.5

    } foreach units _group;

    };

    But the chopper is just hanging in the air and no one is leaving it.

    Hey guys... im trying to get this AI group to eject from the chopper but they are apparently afraid to do so! :)

    _grp = [_pos, side, _units, [], [], skill] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;

    The choppers second waypoint:

    _wp2 = heli_group addWaypoint [getMarkerPos "test2", 100];

    _wp2 setWaypointSpeed "COMBAT";

    _wp2 setWaypointType "MOVE";

    _wp2 setWaypointStatements ["true","[_heli,_grp] execVM ""test.sqf"""];

    Test.sqf

    test = _this select 1;

    {

    _x action ["eject", _this select 0];

    } forEach units test;

    I also tried just to have the foreach in the statement of the second waypoint but that had the same effect... no eject... :confused:

    setWaypointStatements is that the same as onActivation in the editors GUI for waypoints?

    Cant make it work...

    When I parse _this

    _x addeventhandler ["killed",{[_this] execVM "cash.sqf"}];

    I get an error trying _type = typeof (_this select 0);

    Something about being an array insted of an object...

    ---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

    Oh and _this in cash seems to be an array consisting of the player who was killed and last the person who killed him...

    ---------- Post added at 07:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 PM ----------

    Ah... there we go... it was a simple matter of getting the right stuff from the array...

    _type = typeof (_unit select 0);

    Hey guys im having some problems identifying what kind og type an AI is...

    _grp = [_pos, side, _units, [], [], skill] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;

    _grparray = units _grp;

    {

    _type = typeOf _x;

    _x addeventhandler ["killed",{[_type] execVM "cash.sqf"}];

    _x moveInCargo _boat;

    } forEach _grparray;

    If I debug the _type at this point I get RU_Soldier_GL .. but when passed on in the [] to cash.sqf its "any" ?? A bit confused... so what to do to find out what type a unit is and if man what type of man... that is really the question and how to pass it on to other scripts as params.

    Thx

    Im a bit confused :)

    If I use hint... then it will be passed to every player in-game? If so... then we need to fire of a script on every player determing if the hint should be displayed - is that correct?

    And if a script is executed on the player side with a hint... will it only be shown for that single player or is it broadcasted to everyone?
