Attaching satchel to vehicle

[McFinnish]

What is the script to attach satchel to car in the start and make it blow in 45 seconds.  ;D   I'm making a mission where this car drives to russian holded Lipany, Nogova and kill as many of soldiers it can.

There are some nice 'exploding vehicle' scripts in the ED.
(Feel free to find them  ;D)

this exec "detonate.sqs"
Thread script

"detonate.sqs"

Code: [Select]

; scripted by wizzywig
_target = target
bomb1 setpos [(getpos _target select 0),(getpos _target select 1),-0.1]
~0.001
bomb1 setdammage 1
player removeaction 0
player removeaction 1
player removeaction 2
player removeaction 3
player removeaction 4

exit
now all you do is name your target:
unit/car/chopper/any thing target and in insert in the

init.sqs

Code: [Select]

target addaction [""Attach bomb"",""Attach.sqs""]
any enjoy
remember if you improve this please post or pm me with improvements so i can add them to new script thank you

I think you need to learn the joy of looping  

You're entire timer script can be replaced with this:

_t=45

#loop
titletext[format ["%1",_t],"PLAIN DOWN"]
~1
_t=_t-1
?_t>0:goto "loop"

[] exec "detonate.sqs"

exit
