can somebody tell me competly, who to make those 0-0-1 messages, or tell me where it is in the editors depot. It's not under radio messages.

My thing is this; I've got my finnish jaeger squad in controll and a sissi squad in the forest and a sniper squad ready for. Who can I make them open fire and attack the town.

Thanks everything already!

To make radio triggers:

1. Place a trigger
2. Activation: "Radio Alpha" (or wathever "Radio...")
3. Text: "text that wil be displayed next to radio #

To make the other squads attack:

1. First set all squads to "Hold Fire" & "Stealth"
(with a waypoint placed on top of the leader of that squad)
2. Next set the second waypoint on the town
"Open Fire" & "Seek & Destroy" & "Combat"
3. Sycronize the waypoint with your Radio trigger

Result (I hope)  ;D : When you press 0-0-1 the squads head to the town and destroy all enemy units.

"Text" just  means the text field ... you can write whatever you like there.

Just for the sake of completeness ....

In your init.sqs write this

1 setRadioMsg "null"

which will clear the radio channel for use later on.    When you want the player to be able to call in the squad, write this in a trigger:

Activation box/Condition:  as you like
On Activation:    1 setRadioMsg "Backup squad attack!"; 1 setRadioMsg "null"

The radio trigger will look like this and will be synchronised with the waypoint

Activation:   Radio Alpha
Type:    Switch
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

To be more precise, text defines what is displayed in the radio menu (0-0)

So if you put "My Cool Message" in the text-box, the 0-0 menu will look like so:

# My Cool Message

Where # is the number of the message (1 for Alpha, 2 for Bravo and so on)
"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'WOW What a Ride!'"
