Title: Pausing at waypoints
Post by: bigdave003 on 15 May 2005, 18:43:07

Hi, I'm making a soldier patrol, but want him to pause at each of his waypoints for a few moments, like i expect a patrolling soldier would. Anyone know how to do this?

Also, is it possible to camcreate a smoke shell at the players position (so it starts to emit smoke)?

Cheers

Hi bigdave for soldiers wait at waypoints you have to put the desired amount of time you want them to wait in the 3 boxes on the Waypoint, something like minimum, medium, maximum. For example if you 10,11,12 then the soldier would pause for a mimium of 10 seconds and a maximum of 12 seconds. If there all the same then the loon will wait until that time.

As for the smoke shell i would look in the comref at getpos and camcreate, but i'm not too sure about that one.

Happy mission making

Groups pause slightly at waypoints anyway.

Any ammo camCreated at or below ground level explodes immediatly, I believe.
