"Land" countType thislist > 0

"Land" countType thislist > 0

Actually, putting that in the activation field is NOT going to work. It needs to be in the condition field. Your condition should look something like-

this && ("Land" countType thislist) > 0

If that doesn't work for you, try-

this && ((count thislist)-("air" counttype thislist)) > 0

condition - activation - i guess triggers have to many fields ...  

CONDITION is the right one ...

Make sure your trigger is set to East/West/Anybody Present (depending on whom you want to set it off).

Otherwise the trigger won't 'see' any of the units

Hi Sui, thanks for the comment/reply....

The thing is that the trigger is grouped to the player (because i only want it to be activated byt eh player) so only the following options are available in the :-

1. Vehicle
2. Whole Group
3. Group Leader
4. Any Group Memeber

This resuts in me not activating it by West, East, Anybody etc etc but by only these 4 options... does this effect my problem ?

Thx in advance again ! ;D

[peter]

try thia one:
this && ("Land" countType [vehicle player] > 0)

should activate trigger if player uses a ground vehicle or no vehicle at all ...
