Simple questions for you good script boy!

[icarus_uk]

SwitchMove and PlayMove dont work in the init.  Are you using the command in a WP, script or trigger?

[chrisb1220]

I'm using a WP

[icarus_uk]

I dont think its been mentioned, which is odd cause its a critical point.  By any chance if your man in SAFE behaviour?  Because he needs to be.

[chrisb1220]

My man is a captive without a weapon. Does it still matter?

[Kaliyuga]

 Ahh... it's all coming back to me now.... something about an officer sitting on a toilet wasn't it ?    I think that you need to replace that "null" with the name of a dying animation....
right Asmodeus ?   ;D

[icarus_uk]

Ok do this and exactly this;

Make a man, name him "captive".  In his init put;

RemoveAllWeapons This; This SetCaptive True; This SetBehaviour "CARELESS"

Make him a WP right at his feet and in the activation put;

Catpive SwitchMove "FXStandSurUniv"

Now if that doesnt all work, then theres somthing very wrong, very wrong indeed.

[chrisb1220]

unitname SwitchMove "FXStandSurUniv" does not work in the WP. I found out that: this SwitchMove "FXStandSurUniv"
does work in the WP, but he dies in that position. I want him to die the normal way.





P.S what's that toilet thing about?

[Kaliyuga]

 so...what you want to do is pretty much what LCD and I said then.....

use a trigger:  
condition : not alive unitname
on activation : unitname switchmove "nameofdyinganimation"

so when he dies, he'll perform the dying animation


 About the whole toilet thing, Asmodeus was making a mission and I had the idea to place an officer sitting on a toilet that you can surprise as you enter the latrine area..... got that working , and then he wouldn't fall off the can when you shot him until we used the above method, that's how I know it works
:toocool:
 

[chrisb1220]

What is the name of the dying animation?




Oh yeah, where's that mission? I really want to see if that really worked out. ;D

[asmodeus]

Hey Chrisb1220!

 ;D

I made that mission and it's called Covert Reprisal.   ;D  It's the sequel to Covert Destruction..  

Umm... Neither are available on the net right now..  OFPEC lost Covert Destruction during the big switch (and a few others..   :'()  but I'm going to send them both back in to be reviewed very soon!   ;D

If you wanna check it out, I'll e-mail it to you.  

Toilet power!!

Oh yeah.. The animation is in the unofficial command reference... (Don't remember exactly what it was..)  It's a must have for good mission editing!    

Asmo out.

[chrisb1220]

Toilet power!
Anyway, I'll see if I can find it.

[chrisb1220]

Ok, I know I am getting really annoying right now but I really need this for a mission. I found the animation it's lyingdying. Now, that trigger condition code LCD told us never worked.

[asmodeus]

Ok..  I sent you the open source version of Covert Reprisal!  With working toilet assassination and booby traps and all!    lol

Ok, I tried it and it worked. I'm sorry I ever doubted you. ;D
I guess this thread is solved.
