Title: 1.46 to 1.90 Triggers to Waypoints ?
Post by: aggressor35 on 22 Jan 2003, 19:43:48

     Is it my imagination.........

1.46    1.) Would F2 (group) Trigger to Waypoint
           2.) Would also F5 (Synchronize) Trigger to Waypoint...
                or Waypoint to Waypoint.

NOW the PROBLEM

1.90  
              I cannot get a Trigger to F2 (group) to Waypoint....
              I can get it to F2 attach to leader or vehicle of a group, but then the
              trigger conditiions change to...EXample: WHOLE GROUP or VEHICLE.


    What the heck am i doing wrong? or is it ofp 1.90 and is there another way to
    do this ?

Hi agridude

When you group a trigger to a unit the trigger options will change a bit.

You can now select by whom / what in that group the trigger will be activated - vehicle, group leader, whole group, any group member.

I've never ever used synchronizing but I think the main idea about it is that it will do two things simutaniously.. or rather by   if   the other is activated    then   the other one will be also.

I think you can't group triggers to waypoints, you'd have to synchronize them. and also I think you can't synchronize a trigger to a unit.


please anyone correct this if I'm wrong.. just guessing here from faint memory.


group(F2) --- unit <--> trigger

synchronize(F5) --- trigger <--> waypoint
