Unit position
« on: 31 May 2004, 15:56:04 »
Hi All

Is there any chance, in script, how to determine if soldier is standing, crauching or laying?

Thx

Basicly, no...
You can't :(
You could maybe make a new addon, that is a really weak bullet (No dammage), and make it at different heights at the player.. And if it hits at z height of 5.. They're standing up.. If at z of 3, hits, they're crouched, if at z = 1, they're prone (In that order.. The crouch one would hit a standing person)

Something like this :
make weakbullet
setpos bullet
set velocity towards player
player add a hit event handler
if hit, remove eventhandler, quit scipt

Etc

Dunno..

Hmm... that's one of the more creative approaches I've heard in regards to this problem. However, since you have to damage a unit by atleast 5% of its maximum life for a "hit" EH to fire, I'm afraid using a bullet that does no dammage wouldn't work. But perhaps a damaging bullet would work, and then you could heal the unit again in the EH.....
