make troops eject

[punisher]

i know how to make them eject if you are in their groop but no it if they are enemy troops controled by AI .please help peps thanx

[Kaliyuga]

name your enemy group using;

g1 = groupthis

in the leader's init line..  

then make a script called jump.sqs

**********************************************
_grp = _this select 0
_vehicle = _this select 1

_aunits = units _grp
_i = 0
_j = count _aunits

#Here
(_aunits select _i) action ["EJECT",_vehicle]
_i=_i+1
~1.4
?_j>_i:goto "Here"

exit
**********************************************

Then.. call the script like this:

[g1,heli1] exec "jump.sqs"


where   g1 = group name  
and  heli1 = chopper name



this should  work for any group...  Player controlled or not

Kaliyuga out   :cheers:

man thats a bit to complicated

[Respined]

The easiest thing is to put your units jump from helicopter or plane with waypoint command GET OUT to every ejectin' units
but thats not very useful try this......

_aunits = units (set the name of soldier that you are playin')
_i = 0
_Max = count _aunits
#Here
(_aunits select _i) action ["eject",(the name of plane or helicopter who drops your team)]
unassignvehicle (_aunits select _i)
_i=_i+1
~1
?_Max> _i:goto "Here"
exit

and write this string to waypoints on activasion file(waypoint where you want to drop your crew): this exec "(jump.sqs)"

Put your name as PLAYER
and if you have group put this text string to all your men to init field like this:grp = group this; this moveincargo (the name of copter or plane) and the game starts inside the vehicle with your men

[punisher]

so remind me where does all that coding stuff go on the waypoint or man ?? aaaah

[PENNYWISE]

that goes into a .sqs file (thats a script) which u put in your mission folder (operation flashpoint\users\your username\missions\mission name\)

sorry kaliguya, but your solution does not work with me...

Ive hardly no eXperiance with ejection scripts, so Ive copy/paste your script between the *** *** and but this in the leaders line:

g1 = groupthis; this moveincargo helo

(where helo is the name of the chopper)

this is in the "on activation" line of the trigger (activation: west,present)

[g1,helo] exec "eject.sqs"

where "eject.sqs" is refeared to your "jump.sqs"

and this is what in eject.sqs is:

_grp = _this select 0
_vehicle = _this select 1

_aunits = units _grp
_i = 0
_j = count _aunits

#Here
(_aunits select _i) action ["EJECT",_vehicle]
_i=_i+1
~1.4
?_j>_i:goto "Here"

exit

hope you can help me

And I know the trigger gets activated, because Ive made a sound effect in it when the triger is activated, and I hear that effect.

Lol @ Kali

da

g1 = groupthis; this moveincargo helo

should b

Code: [Select]

g1 = group this; this moveincargo helo
also da code wil b lot beter like dat

Code: [Select]

_grp = _this select 0


_aunits = units _grp
_j = count _aunits

#Here
_j = _j - 1
? _j < 0 : exit
(_aunits select _j)  action ["EJECT",_vehicle (_aunits select _j)]
~1.4
goto "here"

wil work

LCD OUT

P.S - exec it [g1] exec "scriptname.sqs"

[Totibbs]

|#|] Invalid number in expression

LCD, Ive copy/pasted your scrip now, but I got this error:

|#|] Invalid number in expression

so nothing happens...

[LCD]

fixed da script in da original post - try it now

LCD OUT

[Totibbs]

(_aunits select _j)  action ["EJECT",_vehicle (_aunits select _j)]

error unkown operator...

maybe the problem is, that I dont know how to give a group a name...

[PENNYWISE]

group this setGroupId ["Bravo", "GroupColor3"]

^ ?

[Totibbs]

thx but it doesnt solve the problem. maybe because I copy/pasted it on top of the (not working) script LCD gave me...

I really need a 0 hard-rated script. because I have no experiance at all with ejecting scripts, but Id like to learn
