bravoteam4=group this; setGroupId ["Bravo", "GroupColor4"] in loon's init.

If you want to use custom callsigns then download Student Pilot's tut on this page:

bravoteam4 setGroupId ["Bravo", "GroupColor4"] this does something

Try:

bravoteam4 = group this; this setGroupID ["Bravo", "groupColor4"]

However, the effect is the same, mate.

Yes indeed ;)
That's just because i usually assign groups in initfields and groupID's in init.sqs to keep the initfields nice and tidy.
But that's just me.
