game logic explosions?

[Muddy Waters]

is there a line i can type in the int. field of a game logic to make it and explosion? what is it?
I wanna fake some arty fire using triggers and game logics.

You can use camcreate to create a shell or hand grenade at the point but you may need a script. You should have a look at the editors depo as they have quite a few bombard scripts.

camcreate! ok, that could work, how do i write it in so it works? i checked comref, but it doesnÂ't work, im probably doing something wrong, example please!

[C0LDSt33L]

For example:

Code: [Select]

;C0LDSt33L's ultra-incredible grenade Script

_target = _this select 0

_targetx= getpos _target select 0
_targety= getpos _target select 1

_boom = "Grenade" camCreate[_targetx,_targety, 1]

exit

The script should be called thus: [LG1] exec "scriptname.sqs"

This will create one grenade a meter above LG1.

This is a more complicated one:

Code: [Select]

;C0LDSt33L's even more ulta-incredible bombard script

_target = _this select 0
_bombcount = _this select 1

#ReBomb

_targetx= getpos _target select 0
_targety= getpos _target select 1


_targetxx = _targetX -100
_targetyy = _targety -100

_tempBomb = "Grenade" camCreate[_targetxx+random 200,_targetyy + random 200, 1]
~0.01
_tempBomb = objNull

_BombCount= _Bombcount - 1

~0.5

?(_BombCount>0): goto "ReBomb"

canbomb=0

#End

exit


The script is called: [object around which the bombard will focus, number of bombs] exec "bombard script.sqs"

You can play around with this to alter the time between bombs or the area they land on and pretty much anything else, it's fairly self-expanatory.

I'm off to have a cream cheese sandwich now

Use one of the many arty scripts here at the ed depot or use one of the three explosion scripts there.

Just type some stuff into the activation of a trigger and put the script in the mission folder and walla, a dozen shells hittin the ground to sim arty. The only real arty is the COC stuff.
