Createunit & Identities

[TOViper]

Hi!

I need help with creating units and giving them identities please!

My script looks as follow:

  "SoldierWB" CreateUnit [getMarkerPos "testmarker", Testgroup, "new_soldier = this", 1, "Lieutnant"]  

Testgroup was created a time ago, and all works fine! Got the unit instantly on the map, all settings are OK and my soldier is working.

But: How can I assign the unit an identity?
Yeah, right, with the "SetIdentity" command, looking like this:

  new_soldier SetIdentity "Tony_Curtis"  ("Tony_Curtis" is an identity added in the description.ext)

After doing the above script line, assigning the identity doesnt work.

Naturally I tried giving the SetIdentity command in the INIT-Field of the Unit above..
So the code will look as follows:

  "SoldierWB" CreateUnit [getMarkerPos "testmarker", Testgroup, "new_soldier = this; this SetIdentity "Tony_Curtis"", 1, "Lieutnant"]  

You see the problem? the "" (double "" ) is the problem...

How can I solve this problem?

Hi!
Thnx for the fast reply!

IÂ've tested both things you wrote, and both things didnÂ't work ->  :-\

But:
You are right saying that it works in triggers! IÂ've tested it with triggers, and it works fine -> not a nice solution for my actual problem, but ITS A solution ->  

Mannnnny thanks to you!
