Hi all, so I am building a Manhunt mission and all is going well so far, pick off pieces of script here and there on the internet. But now I am stuck on a problem. Basically it is a mission playing by 2 BLUFOR which are trying to escape the island after their heli crashed and 6 OPFOR which will look through the island to find the BLUFOR trying to escape. Now my 2 BLUFOR guys are dropped in parachute at the beginning of the mission, just like if they had just jumped out of the heli. But what I want to do is add a timer to the OPFOR guy for so many seconds before they can move so that it gives the BLUFOR a small head start to hide. I have looked for a while on the net and can't find any relevant information. Any help is greatly appreciated!

The missing link :P the "==" Thank you so much! Everything works as intended now ;)

Hi all, I kind of need help for a similar scenario I am trying to create. I have tried to inspire myself from your examples above but nothing seems to be doing it. So I created a small area trigger for BLUFOR which has this code: if (side player = blufor) then { _mkrExt1 = createMarkerLocal ["mkrExt1", getMarkerPos "ext1"]; _mkrExt1 setMarkerColorLocal "ColorBlufor"; _mkrExt1 setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON"; _mkrExt1 setMarkerTypeLocal "hd_pickup"; _mkrExt1 setMarkerTextLocal " Extraction point 1"; _mkrExt2 = createMarkerLocal ["mkrExt2", getMarkerPos "ext2"]; _mkrExt2 setMarkerColorLocal "ColorBlufor"; _mkrExt2 setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON"; _mkrExt2 setMarkerTypeLocal "hd_pickup"; _mkrExt2 setMarkerTextLocal " Extraction point 2"; _mkrExt3 = createMarkerLocal ["mkrExt3", getMarkerPos "ext3"]; _mkrExt3 setMarkerColorLocal "ColorBlufor"; _mkrExt3 setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON"; _mkrExt3 setMarkerTypeLocal "hd_pickup"; _mkrExt3 setMarkerTextLocal " Extraction point 3"; }; And it keeps telling me I need a ";" I'm quite frankly lost here. The idea is that i have 3 invisible markers named ext1, ext2 and ext3 that are invisible and I would like to create 3 markers VISIBLE ONLY TO BLUFOR out of their positions. I am very new to scripting in general. Thank you!
