Getting a group to continue its WPs

[icarus_uk]

I have a unit that moves along some WPs, when it gets to one of its WPs a script runs and tells the unit to do some funky animations.  How do I then get the unit to carry along its designated WP path?

dunno man, try to add a switch trigg. & put the anim.spells in between two WP's instead.

maybe a condition in the trigger - firing AFTER the anims, thus: cond.= true after the anims?!

[icarus_uk]

That sounds stupid!

Is there a command I can use to tell said man to move to said WP ?  Like what you do when you skip out WPs?

[macguba]

I had a similar circumstance but with no problems .... once the loons had done the animation thing the script ended and they just wandered off to the next WP.    

What happens?   Do they do the funky stuff and then just stand there?

[icarus_uk]

Well the script isnt going to end until hes moved along his WPs.  

Its a simple script that makes a man squat down next to a rook and go for a crap, then hes meant to carry on his WPs and run off back to his truck, the the script does more things.

Except hes not running back to his truck!

Icarus - just a quick example, on how to do it:

wp1: move + exec script
wp2: synced to a switch trigger (waiting for a condition
to be true at the end of the script - or where u want it to
be true)

wp3: move (next waypoint)

==> unit moves to wp1, executes the commands from
the script - script says: icarus_script1 = true
switch trigger tells unit to continue it's way from wp2 to
wp3

Try:

"dofollow (leader group)" foreach units group

That'll make all unit in group get back into formation, and the leader will continue on their waypoints...

[icarus_uk]

Nope.  Doesnt work.  I have the swtich trigger setup, but the trigger activates and my unit just stands there looking stupid.

[Tomb]

  you DID off course add a "_x switchmove ""NULL""" foreach morons

just before the scroll ends?!

[Tomb]

see!  

[icarus_uk]

There is only one unit, as indicated in my first post by the phrase;

"I have a unit that moves along some WPs"

[Tomb]

...and?

bob switchmove "null"    (or playmove "null")

...should do   no matter if it was a playmove or switchmove

[icarus_uk]

He gets nulled, but just stands there still looking like a pillock.

[Tomb]

hmm, odd...  


well, anyways, if it's just one d00d then why put this line:

Getting a group to continue its WPs

-as thread title?  :afro:


you should KNOW by now that there's not enough time for sub-title reading, as WW-III is about to begin.  :gunman:

Cause a single unit is a group containing one person!
