How do I count haow many East there are left on the entire island and then fire a script off when a certain number is reached, say 30?

hmmm, another one to be added to the faq perhaps.

use the old trigger-covering-island routine. activated by east present, 'on activation' field -

Code: [Select]
all_east = thislist
when you want to trigger the remaining east number <=30 routine, use

Code: [Select]
?({alive _x} count all_east <= 30) : ...

I personally can't help you much if you just ask 'What?'  :no:


Anyway, if you want the trigger to 'trigger' once there are 30 east units left then bedges' example is a bit faulty, otherwise it makes perfect sense.

If you want the trigger to 'trigger' once the count is 30 (and thus execute a script) put the next in the condition field of the trigger
Code: [Select]
({alive _x} count thislist) <= 30Of course the trigger should be set to east -> present..
