Hello, is there any chance to get Mando Chaser (http://www.ofpec.com/ed_depot/index.php?action=details&id=387&game=ArmA) cool script compatible with Cold War Assault?
-
There was an OFP version (http://www.ofpec.com/forum/index.php?topic=29156.0), but sadly I only get a truncated download now (just 42kb rather than 434kb expected).

Hello, thank your reply!
I also tried downloading script from link kindly given to me but I got same download broken problem as you.
I just hope somebody else will provide another integer link!

It's possible that you could find the script in Mandoble's campaign 'Grunt ONE', which is in the mission section. If I remember rightly there are a couple of missions that have chases in them. Though I can't remember precisely which missions.

Thank you for your hint and thank you for playing The Carrier too!

After looking through Mandoble's Grunt ONE campaign I couldn't find the mando chaser script :(. How complex do you want the chase script to be?
You could make a script that attaches a waypoint to the player's vehicle (the chaser's waypoint) and loop it every couple of seconds or so. A script of this type was used in the BIS mission 'convoy'. I've tested it before now and it's quite effective. There can sometimes be a large delay in the chaser reaching the player.
I suppose you could try running the ArmA version of 'mandochaser' in CWA and see what happens.

Won't work.
- It's in sqf format, CWA won't understand it (would need to be re-written in sqs)
- It uses a few scripting commands that are not available in CWA..

Thank you all for replying and giving more suggestions but, after downloading, unpacking and examining Grunt ONE campaign I just found mission which contains chasing script and found that script into mission folder and adapted to my mission!
For those who may need this script in the future, I just attached script together with info about how to use it. I translated script from Spanish to English and fixed formatting of text in order to make it easy to understand and read.
...happy pursuing!
