entrench script (just an idea...)

[lipan_marder]

hello... im new to scripting, so just thought would like to share an idea with you all.

okey, here goes: wouldn't it be nice if we could order our units to dig in? so i just thought maybe we can create new user action to "dig in", then magically a foxhole or sandbag appear in front of the unit.

so what do u guys think? or if there is already this kind of script somewhere in the OFP community? i searched ofpec forum and didn't return any result

okey that's all, just an idea

It's easy enough.

Code: [Select]

diginAcc = this addaction ["Dig in","digin.sqs"]
digin.sqs :

Code: [Select]

_unit = _this select 0
_trench = "TrenchClassName" camcreate getpos _unit
Thats the basic thing, you need to change TrenchClassName to an object class name of a trench or something (Look in readme of the mod/addon that contains the trench your using, or the Lib1942 editing manual thing etc)

Really it should use trig to place it a little infront of the unit, but for some objects the above code will be fine, as it may create the foxhole (or whatever it is) with the unit in it

Good luck
