Title: Trigger query
Post by: sharkattack on 29 Dec 2008, 13:27:04

hi  all  .. 
heres my problem  i have a scenario  when anyone of four player groups
can locate and release  captives ...  my problem is determing  which group found them and getting the captives to join that group..

i have a crude system working  using  triggers to set conditions
ie
trigger linked to blue team
any group member present
sets blue as a variable
when blue is set  a script to have captives join blue group is activated

as you can see i need a whole load of triggers and a bunch of scripts that wont be used

anyone know of an easier  way ?

many thanks  and  best wishes to all at ofepc forums  for the new year

You might do something different, if the captives are "jailed" you may add an action to the door or some object nearby to release them, the player activating the action is clearly who released them and the captives join the group of that player. You may also add that action individually to each captive, so a player needs to release them one by one.
