Does "MoveInCargo" remove a unit from it's group?

[Mr.Peanut]

I have a group of four inf. In my init.sqs I "MoveInCargo" each inf to a different MG Jeep.

Code: [Select]

GroupGren = Group Gren1
{_x AddWeapon "NVGoggles"} ForEach Units GroupGren
GroupGren LockWP True
Gren1 MoveInCargo Jeep1
Gren2 MoveInCargo Jeep2
Gren3 MoveInCargo Jeep3
Gren4 MoveInCargo Jeep4
I have a detect trigger that launches the following script:

Code: [Select]

If (Alive Gren1 And Gren1 InVehicle Jeep1) Then {Gren1 LeaveVehicle Jeep1}
If (Alive Gren2 And Gren2 InVehicle Jeep2) Then {Gren2 LeaveVehicle Jeep2}
If (Alive Gren3 And Gren3 InVehicle Jeep3) Then {Gren3 LeaveVehicle Jeep3}
If (Alive Gren4 And Gren4 InVehicle Jeep4) Then {Gren4 LeaveVehicle Jeep4}

[Gren1, Gren2, Gren3, Gren4] Join GroupGren
GroupGren LockWP False
[GroupGren, 1] SetWPPos GetMarkerPos "MarkerCrashSite"
[GroupGren, 2] SetWPPos GetMarkerPos "MarkerCrashSite"

WP 1 is a S&D and WP2 is a cycle.  I want the inf to hop out of the jeeps and rejoin each other and go on an endless S&D.  When I fire on a jeep, presuming that throws my detect trigger, the inf get out of the jeep, run around for a second, and then get back into the jeep.  What the hell am I doing wrong? I have also tried it without the  "[Gren1, Gren2, Gren3, Gren4] Join GroupGren" line to no avail. In the debugger the inf are still listed as their own group.

if your wating the inf to jump out when under fire and stay on foot use the unassignvehicle command on each man

MoveInCargo does not remove a unit from its group.  It does ADD that unit to the crew array of the vehicle.

LeaveVehicle doesn't work well with units in CARGO, only commander/driver/gunner, in my experience.

Instead of leavevehicle, eject the men ( _x action["EJECT",(vehicle _x)] )and then unassignvehicle for each of them.  You don't need any group functions, they retain their group membership.

Using eject is not a good sollution either, it can kill the units very easily!
The best way to get a unit to disembark is still the unload waypoint, so if there's any way you can use a waypoint please do.

I use it quite often...no dead guys on my end.

However, if you are really concerned about it, call unassignvehicle first, as that will cause the vehicle to stop.
