Title: Newbie, lol!
Post by: Mephistopheles on 17 Jun 2004, 16:08:08

Hi, I am a COMPLETE newbie to editing, but I am in the middle of my first mission, and I was wondering how one can stop a unit form moving from its current position at all, and I mean literally spawning at the beginning, until death/end of mission?

Regards,

Mephistopheles

When placing the unit put this in his initialization field:
this disableai move

you have to be in the advance settting of the editor to see the initialization field when placing a unit

Hope this helps

Also you can use a hold waypoint right on the guy.

Also another bit of advice to keep him in a certain position.

this setunitpos "UP"     =  the guy stays standing

this setunitpos "DOWN"  =  the guy is prone

good luck editing....
