[rbond]

does any one know how to do this?

also does any one know how to end a mission from a comand in a script. I need it because i am making a surrender script and i would like it to trigger the end of the mission in my campaign.

I am a newbe so I hope these arnt to easy for the Advanced section.

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, these are too easy for the Advanced ... but hey, if you don't know the anwser, how are you supposed to know that?   Anyway, no harm done.      If in doubt, the best thing to do is post in Editing/Scripting: General.

Anyway, to the answers.    To do gear selection from the Briefing you need a little file called description.ext.    There are tutes in the Editors Depot, but I suggest you d/l the Tutorial Mission and borrow the one in there.  You can edit it to suit your own mission.     Look at the tutes too, of course, so you understand what is going on.

To make a mission end from a script finish your script like this:-

endMission=true
exit

Create a trigger:-

Type:   End#1
Condition:   endMission

when the variable endMission is set to true by the script, the trigger will fire and the mission will end.
