Calling Sides - East,West, Res, Civ

[Kilo11]

Hello,

Is there anyway to use ONE command to call an ENTIRE side?


EX:  East setbehaviour "AWARE"

That is what I would like to do, but I know that doesnt work.  Any ideas, sugguestions, tips, or andwers are greatly apprecaited.  Thanks in advance!

create a trigger that covers the entire map, activated by east present, and in the activation line put: east = thislist;"_x setbehaviour "aware"" foreach units east
condition: this and changebehaviour
that way it will wait for the variable changebehaviour to be true, which you can do through another trigger which will actually cause the change

Trigger2:
condition: what you want
activation: changebehaviour = true

hmm.. upon testing this in the editor i think you will need to use scripting, the trigger won't except a couple things
for the trigger just do this:
activation:[thislist] exec "changebehaviour.sqs"

Code: [Select]

_Units = _this
"_x setbehaviour "aware"" foreach units _units
exit
just change the behaviour in the script to what you want, and as i said, the trigger will affect who has their behaviour changed, whoever activates the trigger covering the whole map

Triggerhappy's method will almost work in a trigger, except for a few errors. The main problem is right here:

"_x setbehaviour "aware"" foreach

The second bold quote "closes" off the first one, which makes an error. Remember that you can use braces as quotes: {

{_x setbehaviour "aware"} foreach....

It's also not a good idea to use "east" as a variable name, because "east" is also a scripting command, and that is never a good idea to do. But you don't need the variable at all, just put this in a trigger, covering the whole mission area, activated by "east present" (and synchronized with something if you don't want it to happen at the beginning of the mission):

{_x setbehaviour "aware"} foreach list this
or
{_x setbehaviour "aware"} foreach thislist
