naming a driver
« on: 25 Sep 2002, 20:49:07 »
Got a problem  :help:(IÂ'm a rookie in the editor so you guys know this right?). I need to name the driver that sits in a boat from the start at the mission, bequase he have to survive (and you canÂ't do a NOT(alive name-of-man) if you dont have a name). And he has to get out of the boat so NOT(alive name-of-man name-of-boat) do not works.
Plz help me!

If you name the boat, example MyBoat.  Then the driver will be named MyBoatd, the gunner will be named MyBoatg and the commander (if it had one) would be named MyBoatc.

Of course this works with any vehicle and any name, just add a d, g or c after your chosen name.

u could start with an empty boat, and a the person u want to drive the boat.  give the boat and driver both names, then in the drivers initalization line put :
man moveindriver boat

Think their is another command that allows u to directly name  each of the crew of a vehicle but i dont know what it is.

You can name them like this if your boat is name boat1.

driver boat1 = boatdriver
gunner boat1 = boatgunner

[icarus_uk]'s suggestion seems to be the easiest though.
