hi im trying to make a black hawk down mod on the avgani map, problem is i dotn know how 2 put a group in a building ie, insurgant group of 8 somewhere in the building, and a group of iraqi civvlians on a floor, ive mangaed to get the choppers 2 land exactly where i want them, and have a chopper flying high in the sky at around 400, and a white car jst a block away from the target building, so its all quite true to the movie.

--Put a gamelogic near (should be very very near)  the house you want your groups to move in,
in the init field of the gamelogic,type

Code: [Select]

house1=nearestbuilding thisnow that the house has got the name "house1"
--next,select a unit and select waypoints(f4),2X click on the house and see in "position in house" to find out the max pos number available at the house for the units.
(in this case i make it 10)

--so place your group,in the init line of the leader ,type

Code: [Select]

guys=group thisnow the group has got a name called "guys",change it to your desired one.

Code: [Select]

-place a trigger and enter the following
 axis a /axis b - 0
 activation - anybody
 not present
 condition = this
 on activation = {_x setpos getpos (house1 buildingpos random 10)} foreach units guys;this makes every single units of the group to instantly move into the random positions in side the building(in this case the random max 10 positions available for the group)
Note : The group should not exceed more than 9 units to avoid overlapping at the same place (in this case coz the max pos has only 10)

Now you have guys which are in house1 just at the start of the game.
if you want to make them move to the building,just use place "domove" instead setpos.
