Title: Common question
Post by: seanver on 20 Aug 2002, 18:51:17

How do I make a unit sit on a chair?

Title: Re:Common question

The unit behaviour must be set "careless" (waypoint or initline).

In the next waypoint (the chair) write this in "OnActivation":

this SwitchMove "Commander"
or
this SwitchMove "FXStandUnivTable" (that's what I prefere)
or
this SwitchMove "OnChair"

Of course you can also use this in a script but I think it doesn't works with triggers.

Hope this will help...

Already answered, so nevermind me.

That does not work well, the guy doesn't sit on the chair. He sits either on the right, or on the left or even about 1 meter over the chair.

unitName switchMove "OnChair"

Works for me.

Nothing, it does NOT work for me. The guy doesn't sit on the chair well.

Post your mission here, and I will take a look at it.

I have nothing done, I've just started that mission. So if you want, post  a mission where the guy sits well to see what I'm doing wrong

Okay, but first you need to tell me what version of OFP you have. Do you have Resistance?

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: Sefe on 21 Aug 2002, 15:11:18

Hve you set the unit's behaviour to "SAFE" first?

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: KTottE on 21 Aug 2002, 15:12:07

omg, do I feel stupid. I didn't even think of that.
Better yet, set him to "CARELESS".

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: seanver on 21 Aug 2002, 15:14:49

Yeah, I have resistance.
And yes, I have set the behaviour to safe. And i tried careless too

Hey guys, guys  :D what all resistance talk is about. Ain't u forgeting something, eh?!
First of all u should use our famous Chair X so the guy will be able to normaly sit down and to make the guy sit use unitname SwitchMove "FXStandUnivTable" Hope that helps, cheers ;)

Post by: KTottE on 21 Aug 2002, 16:15:44

I am trying it with Chair X right now, not working. I think it's related to Resistance.

Edit:

It wasn't.
I've tried it in 1.46 as well. Damnit, why isn't this working?

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: seanver on 21 Aug 2002, 16:42:00

With the chair x it worked a little bit better, but it aint enough

Good job, man. At ease. And thanks  ;)

I am back!!!!  ;D Other question. Now that my heroe sits on a chair, how can I make him stand up?

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: Black_Feather on 22 Aug 2002, 01:52:42

unitname switchMove "FXStandFromTable"

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: seanver on 22 Aug 2002, 20:26:44

Hi again. Other problem with this. Once the guy stands up, he doesn't move. I've tried waypoints as well as "domove" commands to move to a gamelogic.

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: Black_Feather on 22 Aug 2002, 20:49:53

try using playmove instead of swithcmove, if it doesn't work just use this

unitname switchMove ""

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: seanver on 22 Aug 2002, 20:55:01

they didn't work

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: Black_Feather on 22 Aug 2002, 21:00:47

its ok for me, you'll have to do it through a script and not a waypoint though.

Title: Re:Common question
Post by: seanver on 22 Aug 2002, 21:09:26

I've solved it: ive created a "clone" of the guy so I teleport the guy who is sat on the chair and put the clone standing up instead. I guess I'm not going to have problems with this so topic solved  8)
