A personal question

[Dandy]

Hi!

Is it okay to have meny spelling mistakes when writing a question here at the forums? My cousin keeps telling me that IÂ'm bad at spelling and that I have got meny spelling mistakes, and he criticize me every time IÂ'm going over to his house. Yes he is registerd here and reads my questions now and then. This is a secondary question. No answer is needed.

That was a personal question.

But my real question is: How can I get a unit (m1a1) to move and stop and move again with radio command triggers?

I have been using unpbo to see how the mission "Guardian" is working, but there are to meny triggers and scripts for me understand.

I tryed meny different activation commands, but I never got it to work like i want it to work. The result have been different from eatch other, I manage to get it to move but not stop. And I manage to get it to move and stop but not to move again. And some of the commans i tryed only works with soldiers but noth with vehicles or the other way around.

I tryed commands like: m1a1 move getpos soldier, m1a1 stop stop, m1a1 stop true, and some variable.

Please help me! ;D

Nobody cares about spelling.   As long as we can understand what're asking that all that matters.   And if we don't, we'll ask.   Of course it's better if the spelling is correct, but this isn't an English exam.  Anyway your spelling isn't that bad.

Now, the real question.    You need to learn about switch triggers.    Use the forum search function and you'll find lots of posts ... Kaliyuga made one only a few minutes ago.   They can be activated by radio (or anything you like) as long as they are type switch.

If you want an easier mission to look at download the Tutorial Mission from the Ed Depot.   It was created specifically for people like you and uses a radio switch trigger to call in the chopper.    It's a fairly simple mission so it should be easier to understand.

don't worry about your spelling, your cousin sounds like a loon, as macguba puts it.  Don't let your cousin govern your mind, just let your self do that job.  From the message, your spelling looks clean as a crystal

Thank I feal mutch bether now.

I am using a english word bock ;D

I think IÂ'm going for the test mission. I know how syncornice work. But the problem is that I want the tank to stop if danger is spotted (stop on my command). ok? :-\

So I can save the tank before anything bad hapens.

2 stop da tank on ur command just make triger like dat

Triger
activision by radio somin
onactivision : dostop tankname

nd if it doesnt work make da next triger

Triger
activision by radio somin
onactivision : tankname stop true

or

Triger
activision by radio somin
onactivision : tankname setfuel 0

:cheers:

Yes whay not try:

tank setdammage 1 ;D

the fuel stuff works but is to slow to stop and I still need the tank to move to a sepcified zone, yes I know about this setfuel 1, but no fuel command please, an I wold like the tank to stop, and move on my secondary radion command.

Stop and move and stop again and move again when I tell the tank to by using a radio trigger

where trigger1 is move and trigger2 is stop
and these shuld be a repetabol trigger

do you get it

now tell me wath the tow triggers shuld lock like :-\

[LCD]

da fuel thingy was just a sugestion dont take it hard nd if u setfuel 0 nd setfuel 1 it wil stop nd move    

but u can try da 2 oder trigs e.g

triger 1
activision radio alpha repetable
onactivision : tankname stop false

triger 2
activision radio bravo repetable
onactivision : tankname stop true

and if u want it 2 start stoped - put in its init this stop true

IÂ'm sorry for that

the fuel trigger works but there is one problem (engine failure, no soun from the engine)

the reason for not beliwing the fuel trigger was becaus the setfuel 0 command has a bad effect on a moving jeep or 5h truck. the car drives on for about 150 meters befor stopping.

But I never thought to get a fast stop whene using it to stop a tank.

So thanks for the ide LCD and you other guys.

the engine failure is something that I hafto live with.

so thath salvs my question.
lockin the door. okey thanks
