Title: Spawning in random area of the marker
Post by: SaS TrooP on 30 May 2011, 18:48:24

Lets say I have a marker, brush, 1000x1000 metres big. I am spawning AI unit. How can I force spawned unit to respawn in random area in that marker, on any of these 1000x1000 metres? Such a trick is used in eg. in UPSMON.

Code: [Select]

_center = getmarkerpos "markername";
_range = getMarkerSize "markername";
_start = [(_center select 0) + random (_range select 0) - random (_range select 0),(_center select 1) + random (_range select 1) - random (_range select 1),0];
while {player distance _start < 500} do {_start = [(_center select 0) + random (_range select 0) - random (_range select 0),(_center select 1) + random (_range select 1) - random (_range select 1),0];};
_group = [_start, EAST, ["TK_INS_Soldier_EP1"],[],[],[0.7,0.9]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;
With that while loop it also checks that the unit dosent spawn near player.
