If unit is damaged, proceed to "Loop"

[Arctic]

Code: [Select]

?(damage player >= 0.5): goto "vehiclecam"

This line is producing an error saying it doesnt know who player is. Can someone tell me what the error is?

[Igor Drukov]

It should be "getdammage" rather than "damage"

Thus :

Code: [Select]

? (getdammage player >=.5):goto "vehicleloop"

[Ranger]

That's not true.  damage is the same as getdammage.

Your code looks good to me, Arctic.  Not that I think it'll work, but see what happens if you use a local variable in the script instead.  E.g.:

Code: [Select]

_unit = player

? (damage _unit >= 0.5) : goto "vehicleloop"

I don't think it'll fix the problem, but it's something to try since I otherwise don't see what's wrong with your code.

I do believe your porblem is not defining your player.

Make sure he has a name (IE Bob, or E12, whatever).

In your script, change it to... (I use getdamage)

?((getdamage _this) >= 0.5) : goto "vehicleloop".


Also, just to make sure you know.  "?" are used to check something when the script is run, and return either true or false.  "@"s are triggers, that wait until the condition is true before continueing onward with the script, or continued to a defined (goto) part of the script.

Also there is one last way to fix you script.  Put this up top.

player = _this

[Igor Drukov]

You're totally right, Ranger, my mistake

Just a reminder, though : "damage" works with version 1.5.

*edit*

As a work-around, you could just give the player-unit a name, and use that name in the script.

[Ranger]

I was under the impression that he was using player as in the reserved global variable that is equal to the player of a particular computer.  Maybe not.

[Tomb]

you can use "player" in ANY single-mission script without probs  

[Tomb]

try this:

Code: [Select]

? getDammage player >0.5: goto "loop"
or:

? (getDammage player >0.5): goto "loop"

...if ya like. both ways work just fine!  

So if you STILL have probs, it's not from this end, as LCD said

[Babalon]

Lets see how many OFPEC Script guys it takes to solve a simple "getdamage" line in a script  

I'm going to laugh if in the end all of us are wrong, and its something completely different.

@ baba (dat meens father in arabic ;D)

usualy ? it takes 10 OFPEC scrolers nd it takes more n 3 pages    ;D

I'd hate to see what happens if a light bulb would go out here.

[WizzyWig]

her you go try this

gunnerkilled.sqs

Code: [Select]

? (getDammage pl1 >0.5): goto "alive"
? (getDammage pl2 >0.5): goto "alive1"
? (getDammage pl3 >0.5): goto "alive2"
? (getDammage pl4 >0.5): goto "alive3"
? (getDammage pl5 >0.5): goto "alive4"
? (getDammage pl6 >0.5): goto "alive5"
? (getDammage pl7 >0.5): goto "alive6"
? (getDammage pl8 >0.5): goto "alive7"

Thanks for responding guys!  ;D It was just the spelling mistake. That line was like the trigger to a cutscene.
