Arrays question (Answered)
« on: 21 Mar 2008, 05:09:31 »
  Man taking a 2 year break from the game is killing me, I am really glad all this info is on here. 

  Anyway I finally figured out that the Reader doesn't recognize notepad style quotes and I had to retype scripts in Chris' OFP Editor to get them to work although I still screw a lot up.

  However I am wondering if there is a way to add a group of men to a truck (MoveinCargo) without having to type this command into all 20 units?  Is this an Array issue? I am currently trying to figure out how this Array thing works.  I read few tutorials and did a search but haven't found anything that uses WP's to send a group into a truck without typing the AddCargo command into every unit.

  I tried  grp = groupthis  in the group leaders Init: but it still only puts him in the truck.

  Thanks for any help on this.

You mean like this
Code: [Select]
{_x moveInCargo vehiclename} forEach units group this
Put it in the init line of one of the group members


edit:
sorry didn't read the question fully  :whistle:
You can add that to a waypoint too as long as you have already grouped them

  Thanks for the quick reply, that worked perfectly.

  The only thing I have left is figuring out how to make a trigger work when only the player goes into the radius so my guys aren't setting it off if they run out ahead of me.

  Thanks again.

If you group the player with the trigger you can then edit the trigger to only activate for the group leader

  I was trying to Synch the trigger with the Player somehow, should of thought to group them.  I'll draw a group line to the player unit and see what happens.

  Thanks.
