Condition:   (getDammage loon1 > 0.2) and (getDammage loon1 < 0.8)

Syntax not guaranteed.

In OFP don't think about health:  think about damage.  (In some commands it is misspelled 'dammage'.)  If you think of it as health you'll get yourself the wrong way round.

to monitor every unit, use a hit eventhandler which then runs a check script

far more cpu efficient

something like

INIT.SQS

Quote

_UnitArray = [W1,W2,W3,W4 etc etc etc]
{_x addEventHandler ["Hit", {_this exec "Unit_Hit.sqs"}]}foreach _unitArray

UNIT_HIT.SQS

Quote

_unit = _this select 0
_unit removeallevcenthandlers "Hit"
_MinHealth = 0.3
#START

if (getdammage _unit > _MinHealth)then{hint "Do whatever"}
_delay = 1 + (random 1)
~ _delay
if !(alive _unit)then{exit}else{goto"START"}

this way you can monitor as many units as you want, and monitoring will only occur once the unit has been hit


_minhealth is the minimum danmage that you will allow the unit to sustain before your system does whatever you require to the unit

I don't think hit event handlers activate when a unit is damaged by an explosion, say with a handgrenade or a LAW for example.

You might want to look at a dammaged Event Handler

Easiest way would be simply put a trigger and for in the trigger:

Condition:(alive dude)&&(getdammage dude != 0)
Activation:Hint"OH! I DONT FEEL SO GOOD!"

Similar to what max said although this will hint if ANY dammage is given and the unit is still alive.
