Title: Transfer of Units
Post by: brynn24865 on 30 Jan 2003, 14:55:58

I read somewhere than in Resistance, you can carry over units from 1 mission to the next? How is this done in script and does it work for multiplayer campaigns?

Take a look in the ed depot! There are some "Campaign Description.ext" Tutes that you may find usefull

Good Luck  ;D

I have looked and so far they all just tell how to link missions together. They are all for pre-resistance editing. None of them mention how to keep units from one mission to the next.

I know nothing about this but meybe you will find something out from the official command reference. It has heaps of commands used in campaings and their explinations.

well...this is just me, but there's this command, saveVar which saves a variable to work in all future campaign missions, works as so:

saveVar "variableName"

so, I suppose you could have a variable for the soldiers, like "jimmybobdead", and then do the old variable thing. And in the next mission you'd work with these variables when creating your team (for instance in the "condition of presence" space)

Right, just my suggestion. G'lucl (y)
