Please help with transfaring unit name script!!

[CptBravo]

Hi,

I am using the multiple squad script for MP. Only problem is if the player dies, he loses command of the 8 squads he is leading. The squads can be lead by "Player1" and the human oppnonent can be lead by "Player2" only.

The question, is there a script where if my player dies, the next in his squad unit's name  becomes "Player1" and same for the other commander.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know if this will work, but try

leader grpOne = player1

Hi macguba,

Thanks for your response. Just one question, where should this line go? Triggor? Description file? The init field of the player?  

Thanks

[CptBravo]

Anyone any hints pleaaaase ...

leader grpOne = player1 gives me : error unkown operator.

Any other soloutions are grrrrrrrrrrreatly appreciated!

It should go in a trigger or a script.   Definitely not an init line.

Since it doesn't seem to work anyway, instead of player1 in your main script have a variable - lets say "commander" - carry out all the operations.

So, in the main script, replace player1 with commander.   At the top of the script add the line

commander = leader grpOne

(assuming you have named player1's group grpOne, that is)

Again, just a suggestion, no idea if it will work or not.

The assignment always goes on the right.

Ben, do you mean that

player1 = leader grpOne

might work whereas leader grpOne = player1 would not?
