If you would have checked the main page of OFPEC you would have seen the link to this tutorial.

It really helps if you try before asking a question. And you should always try in the Editors Depot first.

Respined, I think that whilst your help is appreciated, if the chap in question is asking how to launch a scud, I doubt hitting him with a load of code which will probably mean nothing to him, will be helpful.

Next time, please put in a detailed synopsis of what you have to do with that code, or direct them to the tutorial / script which does the required task.

This will prevent the new Member from simply giving up and walking away after seeing all of that. :D

Thanks!

 :wave: Welcome to the sewers of editing, DJ_WarDog  :cheers:


 :o Guess ya want the AI to do the job, oy?!  :D :thumbsup:

 Well, here's a couple of spells m8 :

===============================================
Place the SCUD vehicle on the map where you want it to be. Name it scud1 in the NAME field when created.
 
 Then create two triggers with the following stuff as content:
 
 Trigger 1:
 
 Activation - (whatever, could be RadioAlpha if you wanna be in control though not a driver) :

 On Activation - scud1 action ["scud launch"]
 
 
 Trigger 2:
 
 Activation - same stuff, yer choise!

 On Activation - scud1 action ["scud start"]
 
 Where Scud1 is the name of the vehicle (you can use whatever name, doesn't matter).  
 
And then, if you use RadioAlpha, when ya press  001 on yer keyboard, trigg-1 will fire (raise missile ramp to vertical pos)
 
and if you press 002 trigg-2 will launch the missile  :-*


...or use the snippet that KTottExtacy was referring to, it's right HERE  :-* 8) ;D


Have a neat stay, matey!  ;)

L8r

[mod] Oh, and don't worry about not getting a pin of the hardbutt-code that was posted up there;
I don't get it neither  ::) ;D ...still use these basics after 1/½ years of editing  :-X ;D
