Marking objectives as "Complete"

[ferreirajl]

Hello
What do I have to do in order for an objective to be marked as "complete" in the mission notebook? I know I have to put something (script) in the trigger that detects when the objective is completed but I just canÂ't find it. I am just starting to create my own missions and I donÂ't know anything about scripting so any help would be much appreciated Thanks a lot!!

well, in that case you probably won't have to start worrying about objectives quite yet but briefings are fun, even if the mission is just in the testing stage yet.

so, what you need to do is first find a short tutorial somewhere on briefings (not too hard, even without prior HTML knowledge), maybe find a template briefing, and then make sure you make the objectives all well like.

after that, you'll need this little command:

"#" objStatus "Stuff"

"#" is the "name" or number of the objective, if you use the standard briefing template it'll be from "1" to...well, whatever "Stuff" on the other hand can be..let's see, "Active", "Failed", "Done" and "Hidden". These are respectively: visible, but not complete, visible and with a red cross, visible with a green tick and invisible.

the hard part is getting the briefing done (which you can learn to do with one of our tutorials, as found in the ed depot)

anyhow, g'luck!
