Title: Pretty Basic Question
Post by: Mike on 11 Sep 2002, 22:04:20

When I wright a script and add something with the name variable like: (f1 setflame true) is doesnt work...

How do I incorporate commands like that into the script..

I have a cutscene, and I want the fire to start before the shot and go out after..

and I tried to make a simple script to launch 6 scuds...

Code: [Select]

_scud1 action ["scud launch"]
~1
_scud2 action ["scud launch"]
~1
_scud3 action ["scud launch"]
~1
_scud4 action ["scud launch"]
~1
_scud5 action ["scud launch"]
~1
_scud6 action ["scud launch"]
~5
_scud1 action ["scud start"]
~1.5
_scud2 action ["scud start"]
~1.5
_scud3 action ["scud start"]
~1.5
_scud4 action ["scud start"]
~1.5
_scud5 action ["scud start"]
~1.5
_scud6 action ["scud start"]

exit

But it doesnt work?.. Need a fix..  :)

Putting _'s infront of variables make them local variables.  This means that they have no influence on the game outside of the script.  Remove the _'s and you script will work.
