Problem with using format in setTriggerStatements.

As the headline states, I am having a problem using format when setting trigger statements in a script.

What I am really trying to do is to transfer a local variable to a trigger.

IEDtrigger setTriggerStatements ["this",format["%1 action [""TOUCHOFF"",%1]",_ai],""];

_ai is defined and private above.

I get a script-error telling me that I'm missing a ; but I cant figure out where.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

And _ai contains an object/unit without a name (set in editor or setvehiclevarname)?

In that case the trigger will look something like:

C 1-1-A 1 action...

Which will break the trigger, it doesn't understand your reference to the object. So, name the unit first.

Aha. That was exactly it. It returned C 1-1-A 1 as the unit name, but I did'nt realize that the trigger would'nt accept that as legal input. Should have given more information about my problem - well spotted.

Thanks for the help!
