Title: Radio
Post by: tonnerheim on 05 Jul 2003, 12:27:29

Here we go, a new radio question...
What do I do to make a trigger detect if player or player group has radio?

If I then want radio messeges to show up as text during the mission as long as the radio is in the group?

Well, if the radio is a NAMED 'weapon', then you can use this command :


      YerName hasWeapon "WeaponName"

as condition...  :) Or :

      "_x hasWeapon ""WeaponName"" "  foreach YourGroup

OK.
I named my group to Alpha = group this, in the Init of the leader...
Then I put the "_x hasWeapon ""WeaponName"""  count units Alpha> 0, in the condition field of the trigger....  And I have put the name of the radio in the ""weaponName"" slot...BUT!! Still no message? IÂ'm missing something....
Can someone please write an example of this?

Ex; When enemy units (east) reach a scertain point There will be an sideChat messsage that says "Enemy has reached XXXX" . But this message will be seen ONLY if the player or someone in the palyers group have the radio.

Thanks for the help guys...

Alright..
And in the "on activation", Papabear sideChat "enemy is in XXX"

Does it matter if I have "Switch" or "none" in the {type} of trigger?

Sorry for all the questions..... ::)

Edit; The 0 is it that the player has the weapon? And a 1 would be has not weapon?
