Title: Bridge bombing mission
Post by: Kalkin on 24 Jul 2004, 06:01:37

I'm making a mission on Trinity where one of the objectives is to destroy Helm's Bridge (one section is fine).  How can I tell the game that the bridge has been destroyed so it knows when to change the objstatus to done?

You probably don't mean La trinity, 'cause there aren't bridges on Malden ;)

It is simple on a condition line write:

not (alive x)

You probably new this ;) Well on the place of x you write the unit name. If you use island objects (I'm not sure of this, I read this from FDF website long ago...)

write the object ID like: not (alive 30375)
or then you write object+ID: (alive object3425)
or something like that... ;)

You can see ID's by checking the box "Show ID's" in the editor. The ID's change everytime you change the objects on the island, so, it must be finished before you can make ID based missions ;)

You may use a trigger to do this ;D
If you want something to happen when a object is destroy
 :gunman:
Type "getdammage (object x) >= 1" in the condition feild
"x" is the object ID number
 :cheers:

The Resistance compaign level 15 "Fireworks" use this trigger
