Title: How to end a mission (MP)?
Post by: mook1360 on 17 Mar 2007, 16:24:39

hi i am wanting to use the mission editor to create a game on arma for me and my friends. could anyone tell me if and how it is possible to do this where once all the ai enemy is dead the game ends and how we can constantly re-spawn.
i hope there is someone who can help as i have not got a clue about this editor and my head is battered!

cheers

 the easiest way would be to create a trigger covering youre map  with ..
====================
condition .......
west (or other) not present

type.........
end1 (or other )

on activation......
ForceEnd
====================
then when  none of youre units are present within trigger area   (ie  dead)
trigger will activate and  forceEnd1 will be executed

Once a player unit is on the map you can then choose an empty vehicle form the Empty side.

Empty side is only available once the player unit has been placed on the map.

Thanks for the replies im starting to get somewhere now. Can i just ask one more question, i have managed to create the game where once my all my team have been killed the game ends. How can i create a game where my team keep re-spawning but once all enemy have been killed the game ends?
Thanks again

If your team is BLUFOR, create a trigger activated by OPFOR not present, covering the whole map and select any end (like end1) in the type list.

How to keep your team spawning, well you're making an MP mission. So you need a description.ext with:

Code: [Select]

respawn="3";
respawndelay=20;

In the editor, create a marker named "respawn_west" (use F6). That should do the trick.
