I can't get the objective in my briefing to change
« on: 14 Nov 2005, 19:17:13 »
Hello


In the mission I'm working on there are 6 fuel trucks that the players are to destroy. They are named target1 - target6.
Then I made 6 triggers and in the
"activation" field I put: game logic (I've tried with none and anybody)
and in the "condtion" field I've put: Not(alive target1)
and in the "on activation" field: "OBJ_1" objstatus "Done"

The html code in the briefing lookes like this:
<p><a name="OBJ_1"></a>fuel truck 1
</p><hr>

But when I try the mission and blow up the trucks the objectives in the briefing dosen't change what have I done wrong?

So close, yet so far.  ;)

"1" objstatus "done"

should do the trick.
In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.

Welcome to the forum!

Alive is not a great command to use with vehicles, especially armour.    The truck can look destroyed when in fact it is 0.0001% alive which means your trigger doesn't fire.   Alive works fine for soldiers, but for vehicles its usually better to use something like

not canMove fuelTruck1

etc..
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play
