Troops in a building
« on: 05 Dec 2002, 02:25:36 »
i have placed a bunch of Americans at varying defensive positions in a building in Petrovice.  then i have placed 4 russian squads about 500m away. the russians run in in combat mode, the americans have a turkey shoot. just what i wanted. but i have two problems...

1.some soldiers that are behind walls lie down, stick their gun through the wall and shoot. this looks stupid and is unfair. is there a switchmove command that can force the soldiers to stay on their feet? i would also like a command to force some of the soldiers to lie down.

2. the soldiers at the moment are not linked together, but i have linked them in a squad, with no adverse effects, and improved performance. but after 30 seconds of combat, a few troops decide to move around, and thus lose their excellent firing positions. is ther a way to force the troops to stay in exactly one place?

i will place the attachment here. please feel free to do what you wish with this file, but give credit if it is used in a mission. all ideas and help accepted.

Cheers,
