What time is it?
« on: 02 Jun 2003, 14:37:23 »
Hi everyone! :afro:

   I'm just wondering if it is possible to activate an in editor waypoint from a certain time of the day?

   Example: The mission starts at 19:50 and at precisely 20:30, a plane takes off and flys away.

   private crunch!

Use the command time which is time since mission start in seconds.    Being OFP of course, 1 second on Earth is not necessarily 1 second in the game, so you may have to experiment a bit.    In your case something like

time > 2400

in the condition field of the waypoint should do the trick.

I guess you could always use a trigger if all else fails and just use a countdown and fiddle around with that...  :-\
Failing that I'm not sure if there's any time check that u could use to trigger anything. Good luck :)
