Post by: 456820 on 26 Sep 2005, 21:25:59

if you set up a trigger east detected by west and run a script through it is there away of finding out who detcted the east units ? if so how

I don't think there is a way via triggers only. You could execute a script that runs through all units on the opposing side and detect if they know about the east unit though.

TRIGGER:

Code: [Select]

Activ: Any Group Member
Detected By West

onActiv: [list westUnitsTrigger] exec "findUnit.sqs"

and just run a script checking for each member of a "West" or "East" array if they detected the man.

actually i believe you could find out who saw them with 2 triggers:
nvm, 2 triggers and a script...

trigger 1:
west detected by east
on activation:found=true;found_units=thislist; and anything else you want

trigger 2:
covering whole map
east present (probably repeatedly, depends on the situation)
condition:this and found
on activation:  thislist exec "whoknows.sqs"

Code: [Select]

_found = found_units
_east_units = this
_finders = []
{?_x knowsabout ({_x} foreach _found) > 2:_finders = _finders + _x} foreach _east_units
hint format ["%1 have found the west units",_finders]
i believe 2 is the correct knowsabout value (more or less) for whether a unit has been identified. this isn't garunteed, especially since that coupling of foreach might be a bit touchy....

No matter what class of unit the target is and no matter what the skill/class of the enemy AI, the magic 'knowsabout' number is 0.105.
