Satchel charge question

[Pr0ph3t]

- Can I teleport a satchel charge to an X,Y,Z coord

- Can I detect if it has been disarmed

- How do I detonate via trigger?

[bedges]

as far as i know, the only way to place a satchel charge which remains active (i.e. can be detonated) is by using a phantom loon, setpos'ing him into place and using

Code: [Select]

loon_name fire ["put","pipebomb"]
lay the charge. then remove the loon to about 200 metres away, set to stealth and so on to hide him, then activate with a trigger using

Code: [Select]

loon_name action ["touchoff"]
as for detecting whether it's still active, not sure. anyone?

I believe the charge will only go off if the mission designer orders it, so by definition you know whether its active or not.

I don't really know the answers to the first two questions.   For the third... I imagine satchelname setdammage 1 may do the trick.

just did a quick search. i believe this thread is what you may be looking for.
