Title: who killed who???
Post by: Trash Can Man on 03 Jun 2007, 20:51:45

I am makinga mission that involves terrorist activity. What I want to do is come up with some way to differentiate between the terrorist killing civilians or Blufors killing them. If the Blufor kills a civilian, then the mission ends in failure. Vice Versa if the terrorist kills a civilian, the mission continues. Can this be done first of all. If so, how?!?!?!  ???

You need to put killed eventhandlers on the civilians.  The killed evenHandler returns the victim and the killer.  For a group of civilians, put this code in the group leader's init field:

Code: [Select]

{_x addEventHandler ["killed",{_this exec "civKill.sqs"}]} foreach units group this;
civKill.sqs would be your script where you would put the code to see who killed the civilian.  The first two lines of your civKill.sqs should be:

Code: [Select]

_victim = _this select 0;
_killer = _this select 1;

Now the script knows who the victim was and who the killer was.  You can now add code to test if the _killer is Blufor and end the mission.

Learn more about eventhandlers on the BIKI:

  ???  ???  ??? Well, I understand everything that goes in the init field, but you lost me after that!

alternatively learn even more about event handlers (http://www.ofpec.com/ed_depot/admin_list2.php?type=tu&cat=sc) on our very own site - explains it a bit better.
