getpos command

[AirCav]

heya,

I have an issue using GetPos.  The command doesn't update the target's position after the time it was executed.  So if I have a carbomb is trying to attack a moving convoy, it will move to the point the convoy was and stop.  Is there another command that updates itself and allows AI to track a moving target?

Well, write an sqs loop that updates the porition for the AI...

Code: [Select]

#loop
_pos = getPos (leader convoy)
carbom doMove _pos
~10
? alive carBomb: goto "loop"
exit
This is just a raw example, but the idea is there... syntaxes may not be absolutely correct...
Every 10 seconds the script gets the position of the leader of a group called convoy and gives an order for the car called carBomb to move to that position...
The scripts exits when the carBomb is 'dead'...

Ok, figured it out.  i'm still a script virg. and tend to stick to 'in editor' only solutions until I can figure scripts out.

The solution was to put the getpos and domove commands in a simple script waypoint followed immediately by a cycle waypoint.  

thans for the help,
