Title: Unit Count In Group?
Post by: Captain Winters on 19 Jun 2003, 21:56:05

Does anyone know a script that can tell how many units are left in a group?
For say... There are 10 total units are in a group, when at least six of them are killed, my objective is updated.
Any ideas?

Allright!!! An easy one for a change.  ;D

?("alive _x" count units groupname ) < 5:"1" objstatus "done"

or

?count units groupname < 5:....

I like the "alive _x" version because it works faster.

Oh, sorry another quick one.
The syntax for naming a group is:

groupname = group this

Right? It's needed for the above script! Is that syntax right?

That is correct sir.

Just put that in the init line of one of the units in the group.
