Generate a Group?

[stephen271276]

Is there an easy way to Generate a group of varied soldiers? This is for a mission Im making which will have a reinforcements option via radio. Would also help if they would spawn about 30 metres behind the player...

Code: [Select]

0 spawn {
_group = createGroup east;
for "_i" from 1 to 30 do {
_unit = _group createUnit ["MVD_Soldier", Position player, [], 30, "FORM"];
sleep 0.1;
};

You can use the Functions module and BIS_fnc_spawnGroup as well, as shown here:

Create a 30 man group:

Code: [Select]

_newGroup = [_pos, _side, 30] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;

Pirin,

How exactly does that work? Do I have to download something or is it already part of the program? Sorry for noob questions.... Basically what Im asking is can I put that code in the init line of a trigger or WP?

I would try and make it a script instead.
