 :-\Mmmmmkey :P........ I'm not quite sure what U'r asking here but about that
Quote
WPLabel setwppos (list triger select 0)
I think that WPLabel is the name of the waypoint n' (list triger select 0) is the person or persons that activated the trigger n' I think U know what set setwppos is by now!?! And then ofcourse U should put that in the on activation field of the trigger... Capicche? ;D
N' that cycle thingy... I think LCD meant that U should CYCLE so the troop returns to guardingduty or continues to seek U out, I THINK?!?. ::)

Ok... did that help U out in any way... BTW was I correct on any point there????  ;D :P
I'm glad if I was of any help ;)

Ok!  ::)

   You almost assured me there Bizon!  ;D (Are You actually certain about what You stated there?)  ;D


-First of all, what I want is that the enemies rushes to S&D who activated the trigger. Now thats (thank god) almost achieved! Thanx to all of You!  ;)

-Second, about the "(list triger select 0)" line, that would be EXACTLY what I need now! So if someone knows about this, please let me know!

Hi LCD!

  Wuzup! Can You precise a little more, I'm sure I don't get it right!  :-\

You mean I should name the trigger then type in the "On ACtivation" of the S&D waypoint:     [Group01, 3] SetWPPos GetPos (List TriggerName Selcet 0)?

Damn guys! Thanx a lot for all the help about this subject!  :D :D :D :D

But what if I have several WPs synchronized with the trigger?   ...



    ...

        ....Just a rookie thought... Could this work:

In the "On Activation" field of the S&D waypoints:

[This] Exec "WPSetPos.sqs"

And in the script:


_WP = _This Select 0


_WP SetWPPos GetPos (List TriggerName Select 0)

Hmm! I'm really not sure about that, what about the "[Group01]" part?

I remain lost!  :-[

   Please don't let me down!  :noo:

I recapitulate:

   I have 8 different enemy troops patroling around the airport grounds.
Here's one of the troops' waypoints settings:

---1st WP: Move            /--no change
---2nd WP: Move           /--no change
---3rd WP: Cycle            /--synchronized with alarm switch trigger
---4th WP: S&D              /--"On Activation": [Group01, 4] SetWPPos GetPos Player1
---5th WP: Cycle            /--no change

Now this works but the troops only go to ONE player, there is TWO players in my mission. What if alarm trigger activated by Player2? Player1 gets it. Now thats unfair!


My first question: Am I right by typing "[Group01, 4] SetWPPos GetPos Player1" in the "On Activation" field of the S&D WP?

My second question: If I want to set the WP on who activated  the alarm trigger, how precisely can it be done?

Thanx for Your kind patience for slow understanding people like me!  ;D

---1st WP: Move            /--no change
---2nd WP: Move          /--no change
---3rd WP: Cycle            /--synchronized with alarm switch trigger<----- Name that trigger
---4th WP: S&D              /--"On Activation": [Group01, 4] SetWPPos GetPos Player1<-------------- Not in the friggin' wp in the trigger n' it should be: WPname SetWPPos GetPos (List TriggerName Select 0) type that in the ALARM TRIGGER on activation field!!!!
---5th WP: Cycle            /--no change

Ok???????????? ::) ;D :P

 LCD, You mentioned a CYCLE waypoint after a SEEK & DESTROY one, can You tell where to put it please. Close to the S&D?

 ??? I thought S&D waypoints were kinda neverending cycle-wp's themselves?!

I never saw a completed S&D wp in my own missions?  ???


correct me if I'm wrong, plz

Alright! That the kinda exlpaination I like!

Sorry though, I didn't mean to piss You guys off! ::)

Since we can't "name" a WP but only use it's label, do I have to place a trigger for every WP or is there a better way around it?

I have about 8 S&D WPs.

Alright thats good!

  BUT HOW DO I FIND OUT THE NAME OF THE DAMN WP???????????

2, or maybe 3? Or maybe Seek&Destroy, no wait, perhaps Georges?


There are no tutes hidden somewhere about that? If there is, please tell me where it is so I can finish this thing. I looked but didn't find any. Once my problem is solved, (the positive way) I'll make one!

thanx!
