Follow That Truck

[Abyss]

hi guys i found a thing that is supposed to let a car follow anoyther one but it dont work it goes somthing like this.

Car1>12car2

Car1 domove car2

i cant rember where each one is supposed to go in right now but ive got the papre with it on some where but anyway when i put the in the fields that it tells me to i get some kind of error message can anyone help

Personally i dont see how these peices of syntax can enable a car to follow another

Car1 domove car2

This will get a car to move to another car (the position of) AND

Car1>12car2

How can one car be greater than another    

Unless somene can enlighten me ...

Code: [Select]

_car1 = _this select 0
_car2 = _this select 1
_car3 = _this select 2

~0.2
_car3 DoFollow _car1

#Follow

~0.5
_car2 DoMove getPos _car1

~0.2
? (_car2 distance _car1)< 20 : DoStop _car2
? (_car1 distance _car3) > 50 : _car3 DoMove getPos _car2
? (_car2 distance _car3) < 20 : DoStop _car3
? (_car2 distance _car3) > 20 : _car3 DoFollow _car1

? (w1 In _car1) AND (driver _car2 != objNull) : GoTo "Follow"
this is a little script i used for a mission... basically it was to make 3 cars follow each other and stop if one guy got out... thats the last line which can be voided in this script as long as you add a loop (goto : "Follow")

exec it using:

Code: [Select]

[carname1, carname2, carname3] exec "script.sqs"
for 2 cars, just add in 2 names... should still work

ill improve dat script

Code: [Select]

_count = count _This
_i = 1

#follow
(_this select _i) dofollow (_this select (_i-1))

? ((_this select _i) distance (_this select (_i-1))) < 15 : DoStop (_this select _i)
? ((_this select _i) distance (_this select (_i-1))) > 25 : (_this select _i-1)
DoMove getPos  (_this select _i)

? stopfollowscript : exit
? _i < count : _i=_i+1; goto "follow"
~0.5
_i = 1
goto "follow"

now u can do da same thing w/ as meny cars as u want ;D

just exec like dat

[car1,car2,etc....] exec "scriptname.sqs"

nd wen u want em 2 stop just turn dis cari (stopfollowscript) 2 true
