?Markers?
« on: 22 Aug 2003, 17:33:34 »
How do u make markers appear in a game, like an objective. Like having your mission plan updated and showing new markers that were not there. Kinda like "1" objstat "hidden", and then on the tirgger... "1"objstat "active".

Can you do this with markers too? "marker1" markerstat "hidden" and then in a trigger "marker1" markerstat "active.

Thanks

"markername" setMarkerType "empty" will hide the marker.

"markername" setMarkerType "type" will turn it into a visible marker. Types are "warning", "destroy","objective" etc. You can place markers and look in the mission.sqm to find out the exact type to use.

If you want it to start empty/hidden, you can select the type "empty" when you place it in the editor, and then switch it over at an appropriate time.
