  1. Wonder if anyone is having the same problems as me. I have searched but to no avail.

    The issue I am having is getting the countdown to work. When a player has been killed they immedatley get the option to respawn instead of the usual XXX amount of time before the respawn button is available. This means they die and can instanly respawn. I would like them to have to wait a certain amount of time before they can respawn. I can see the countdown timer set to 300 counting down. I have tried with both V49 and v 50 with the same results

    This is for a 5 man mission using british soldiers on Cherenus with a jackal as the mobile respawn

    By the way I am using combined ops.

    Any help greatly appreciated


  2. Thanks for replying guys

    you can do this by making it activate by anybody and than group it with the members you want it to activate on.

    With this method I can seem to be able to group it to 1 player only. If I drag the GROUP line from the trigger to the Alpha leader then another line to the Bravo leader the line from the Alpha leader dissapears. Maybe I am doing it wrong?

    This should work as condition, activated by anybody:

    ({side _x==west} count thisList > 0) && ({side _x==guer} count thisList > 0)

    This method appears to produce no results. (though it might be me)

    I have tested it with a radio trigger, Blufor present and Independent present and it does work then

    Somthing like this

    Activation Anybody Prestent

    Condition Bravo1 or Bravo2 or Bravo3 or Bravo4 or Bravo5 or Sabre1 or Sabre2.....Sabre5 (2 squads - 5 men per squad)

    On act hint "boom"; (just to keep it simple)

    its a 10 man mission and any one of the player might be the activator.

    Maybe on the condition line something that would work along the lines of

    If any member of Alpha or any member of Bravo present then activate trigger.

    Thanks again


  3. I have a mission where a UK (Blufor) alpha squad and UN (Independent) bravo squad forces have to work alongside.

    I know how to set a trigger Blufor present etc, but what I need to be able to do is have the trigger activated by either Blufor OR Independent present. The nature of the mission means as it cannot be guaranteed which side will arrive at the trigger first.

    Even better would be a trigger that only activated if any member of alpha or bravo was present.

    hope this males sense.

    Thanks in advance


  4. I am making a mission where 1 blufor guy has to kill 10 opfor guys.

    In the mission I have various explosions set to go off as the player moves towards the enemy.

    The problem I have is sometimes these explosions kill the opfor

    What I need to be able to do is have some sort of code in the badguys init field such as:

    badguy1 allowDamage false; (execpt if he is shot by the good guy)

    And while I am at it. Can anyone help me with the following.

    I need to set an area trigger that if a particular faction, in this case independent, enters the area they are killed. - Think instant death zone for independent

    Trigger conditions

    Activation: independent present

    Condition: true

    Act: what would I need to put in here?

    Any help greatly appreciated


  5. I have searched high and low and I cant quite find what I am looking for so any help greatly appreciated.

    I am trying to have a trigger that is only activated by any blufor land vehicles

    The idea being that soldiers can walk through the trigger and wont set it off but land vehicles will (think pressure plate)

    I have got as far as specifying a particular vehicle to activate the trigger with this code

    {vehicle _x iskindof "BAF_Jackal2_GMG_W"} count thislist > 0;

    What I need is something like

    {vehicle _x iskindof "ANY BLUFOR VEHICLE"} count thislist > 0;

    Thanks in advance


  6. Yes, Install patch 1.52. Allthough you may have a 1.52 installation allready patch 1.52 has a higher build number than the 1.52 version you get when you buy OA.

    Xeno

    Thanks for this - will go and try it now and report back

    EDIT:

    Just to let you know updating to the beta patch fixed the "unable to complete repairing vehicle issue" - Thanks Xeno


  7. Can anyone help me with this - When I stop a vehicle on the rearm/refuell point I get the "refuelling vehicle please wait..." message and the engine stops just fine. But then nothing the vechicle seems to get stuck and is unable to complete the refuell/rearm process.

    We are getting this error when we load Domination OA West Revive on our Dedi server

    _magazines = _object magazinesTurret _thisTurret;

    if (!alive...'

    Error missing ;

    qf, Line 54

    thanks in advance for any help


  8. I know I have seen this somewhere but although I have searched I cannot find it again so I was wondering if anyone here can help me out.

    I have an area that switches when all OPFOR are killed (opfor & not present) in trigger options that works fine

    but what I need to happen is the trigger to activate if there are say 5 or less opfor present. This way the attacking force do not need to kill every enemy to succede the objective

    I am sure it is something like "if enemycount <5"

    Thanks for help in advance.


  9. OK anoither question. My convoy of 6 vehicles works fine from start to finish. But when the lead vehicle reaches the final point it stops but then the other vehicles try and get to the last point also and seem to get stuck as vehicle 1 is "blocking" the final marker.

    Is there a way that when vehicle 1 reaches final waypoint all the other vehicles stop.

    thanks in advance
