Ahh, no free answer?

I think i got it... do a loop until the condition is met?

So i think i'll need to use the if then else command... right?
I've never used this command b4...  :-\ so i'll giver 'er a go...

[LCD]

I'm given this a shot...

Code: [Select]

_unit = _this select 0
_marker = _this select 1
_standnow = false

#Sit
?(_standnow = true): goto "posPlayer"
[_unit] exec "distance.sqs"

if (_unit knowsabout player > 1) then ([_unit playmove "null") && (_standnow = true)] else (_unit playmove "EffectStandSitDown")
~8.2

goto "Sit"

#posPlayer
_marker setpos [getpos player select 0,getpos player select 1,1]
#alert
?(!alive player): exit
?(!alive _unit): exit

_unit setcombatmode "RED"
_unit setbehaviour "Combat"

~0.05
_unit commandmove getpos _marker

~4
?((_unit distance _marker) <= 1.5): goto "Patrol"
goto "alert"

[Arctic]

oops... ok. lol

i'll give this if then else stuff a shot... but i can wait.

EDIT:
LoL, it came out funky. And made the standnow cariable with '==' signs. So, i'll wait till tomorrow.

i dont think wat u did is good ;D

u know wat ? i think ull have 2 use somthin like dat ;D

Code: [Select]

_unit = _this select 0
_marker = _this select 1
_standnow = false
_count = 0

#Sit
?(_standnow = true): goto "posPlayer"
[_unit] exec "distance.sqs"

if (_unit knowsabout player > 1) then
{
_unit playmove "null"
_standnow = true
}
else
{
if (_count == 82) then
{
_unit playmove "EffectStandSitDown"
_count = 0
}
}

_count = _count+1
~0.1

goto "Sit"

#posPlayer
_marker setpos [getpos player select 0,getpos player select 1,1]
#alert
?(!alive player): exit
?(!alive _unit): exit

_unit setcombatmode "RED"
_unit setbehaviour "Combat"

~0.05
_unit commandmove getpos _marker

~4
?((_unit distance _marker) <= 1.5): goto "Patrol"
goto "alert"
will prooly work ;D

Hi,

This is the script I use in a mission I've made a while ago called 'Hill 107'.
I call the script to make 3 civilians sit and when I want them to do something else I just set the variable 'vCivSit' to false (vCivSit = true before calling the script)

; civsit.sqs
; Keeping the civilians quiet
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

#Loop
   civil1 playMove "EffectStandSitDownVer1"
   civil2 playMove "EffectStandSitDownVer1"
   civil3 playMove "EffectStandSitDownVer1"
   ~2
? vCivSit : goto "Loop"
exit

It works fine for me
Hope it helps

@LCD

Looks good, but I get an error message that says:

'|#|}' Error invalid Number

Or something along those lines... Not sure about the bracket...

[Arctic]

Doesnt work, although the soldiers look at me and spontaneously 'bunp' themselves away from the fire...

That error is: '|#|}' Error invalid Number in expression

I dunno what caused it... I might try making that if then else thing on one line...

[LCD]

u can try makin it 1 line ;D and it prooly work - just remember 2 put ; between da cmmands

The people stood! LoL, I just have to solve this error:  '(_standnow #= true)' error unknown operator

___

I changed the statement to

Code: [Select]

?standnow and the error goes away, but when i go to the right side of the house, the guys are already  standing up and sit down when they see me. If I go to the left side, everything goes as planned.
