Title: Camcreate
Post by: Jakerod on 01 Jan 2003, 20:46:00

I have a question-
How can I camcreate men and put them into groups and assign them waypoints to certain areas. ANd how can i camcreate tanks with men in them. Im working on a mission on malden where it takes up the whole island (except for the west) and i need to know so i can reduce lag... any other ideas on how i can reduce lag.

you can use createvehicle or createunit

_tank = "M1Abrams" CreateVehicle GetPos player
_man = "SoldierWB" CreateUnit [GetPos player, mygroup]

the easiest way to give them waypoints is to have them join a guy who you've already placed in the editor.

the "_tank" and "_man", is that the name of the units that are camcreated or whats it mean? Thats the only thing i dont understand right now.

yeah _tank is just like a name so you can use other commands like setdammage.
