make a marker in the middle of a mission.
« on: 09 Mar 2003, 22:11:03 »
ItÂ's been a while since I last posted a Q. YouÂ've missed my Qs, havenÂ't you? :D

Anyway, here you go, please help.

How do you make(if possible) a marker in the middle of a mission? I donÂ't want this "invisible" thing cause actually IÂ'm using this in my second official script(I have a rule, donÂ't know if itÂ's correct with the rules, in that case IM me please. Anyway the rule is that if the Q got nothing with scripting to do(you can use it in the editor as well) then post it in Editing: General). Please help.

Thanks in advance. :-*

stash a bunch of invisible markers at the side of the map.    When you want them make them visible and use setMarkerPos to put them where you want.

I know its not technically creating them, but ....

It is a official script. I donÂ't want the user to fool around with markers.

The marker is for tracking. IÂ'm working on a tracking script. 8)
