How to make an unit dead without setdammage
« on: 30 Sep 2004, 16:50:18 »
i want an unit to seem like dead, but without wounds (for example to stun a guard with a fist or kill someone with a toxic gas or sth). I use unit switchmove "civildead" so he falls, and looks like dead. he doesn`t even move. But when something hits him, he screams. I want him to be dead, but when i use unit setdammage 1, wounds appear. It seems ridiculous that someone hits a soldier with a fist, and he falls on the ground all covered with wounds....  :)

there must be something that orders a unit to die. When he receives several shots in the legs or even one in the head, he dies, but isn`t all covered with wounds. I checked the topic about action. Seems there is a command like "die" but i don`t know what`s its syntax.

camcreate a bullet inside him. That'll cause him to die without any wounds.

:beat: *Gets Shot* :beat:

Uh-oh, we're going round in circles here.....

You could try playing around with the position of the bullet a bit.    No idea if it will work though.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Eh...
If a bullet hits a man in OFP, he will bleed... ::)

Use the anims, I've used them, they work...

Yeah, but he wants a dead man with no blood.    In the animation they look dead but aren't:  if you shoot them they yell and turn red.

So if he looks dead, you have set him to be captive, careless, done a doStop and  removed his weapons.  What then is the difference in how he will behave betwen this and him actually being dead?

 :hmm:if he is a captive, the enemies won`t shoot him...
If I  move him in a 1-person group and setcaptive, nothing wrong should happen. But when someone else will play my mission and will shoot the body, it will scream. I hope that no mad-dead-body-destroyers will play it. Anyway, thanks for help.
