a few questions for a friend
« on: 26 Dec 2004, 20:59:12 »
I dont spend much time in the mission editor, my friend asked me:

How do you give a name to a group?
How do you assign and use the Radio Alpha etc callsigns
Does anyone do a basic guide to camera scripting? (very basic)

cheers,

1) "_groupname = group this" in the initilization field of any person in the group. The group will then be called _groupname

2) Have the activation of the trigger as "Radio Alpha"

3) Try http://www.ofpec.com/editors/browse.php?browseon=&browsewhat=1&category=1_3&subcategory=1_3&numreturn=25&displayformat=0&ofpv=1&searchstring=camera&searchwhat=1&searchlevel=0&searchopts=

wouldnt that make it a local variable which you couldn't use anywhere except with other commands in the init? im not sure if it should just be "groupname" minus the underscore.
