Do you mean something like this?

Code: [Select]

soldierWB createunit [getPos dude, dudesGroup, "dude2=this", 1, "CORPORAL"]
or

objectname camCreate getPos dude?

your original post refers to the createunit command but the item that you want to create is referred to as "object

If the item is a soldier unit then createunit   is the correct command to use

however if the object is indeed an object such as an ammo crate or a vehicle, then you need to use the createvehicle command

Say U want an ammocrate next to your player:

Code: [Select]

_MyNewCrate="Reammoboxwest" createvehicle getpos player
Next step:

Code: [Select]

_MyNewCrate="Reammoboxwest" createvehicle [getpos player select 0,getpos player select 1]
Now U can adjust the position of your crate:

Code: [Select]

_MyNewCrate="Reammoboxwest" createvehicle [(getpos player select 0)+10,(getpos player select 1)-20]
To find out the Type of the object:Put your object in the editor with this initline:

Code: [Select]

hint format ["%1",TypeOf this]
