Simple Retreat script
« on: 15 May 2005, 08:04:24 »
Lets say i have a group named grp1. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to make grp1 run away after they only have 6 units left. I was thinking maybe something where the script counts the units in the group and then it activates a switch trigger to another waypoint? I don't know how to do this though. Thanks!

A switch trigger would be okay for this.  You need to give the group a name and then have the trigger fire when the number left alive is < 7.  As follows:

Put this in the init field of one member of the group:

Grp1 = group this

in the condition field of the trigger put:

{alive _x} count units Grp1 < 7

well this is a follow up of Thobsons post.
Then sycronize the trigger to the groups very last waypoint and make sure the trigger is a switch type. That should work

How to make units retreat under fire?
I used in a script the following lines
Quote
#povtor
~3
_alive = ("alive _x" count units Gr1) + ("alive _x"  count units Gr2) + ("alive _x" count units Gr3)  
;hint format ["&#1073;&#1086;&#1081;&#1094;&#1086;&#1074; &#1086;&#1089;&#1090;&#1072;&#1083;&#1086;&#1089;&#1100; %1",_alive]
?(_alive <= 25):goto "retreat"
goto "povtor"
