1 group board two boats
« on: 12 Jul 2005, 13:42:48 »
i've never done this so i need some help here, but how do i make 1 group board in the cargo of the two boats that are waiting for them? I have a get in wapyoint for the squad on one of the boats and in a trigger that says they will go the boats it says p1 assignascargo b1  p1 = player 1 and b1 = boat 1 but it always ends that 6 guys in the squad gets in one of the boats and the rest stays on the beach and waits there while the boats drive off to our extraction  :P
would be nice if i could fix this somehow  ;D

Also as a sidenote how do i make part of the briefing that is hidden and when objective 1 is failed then objective 2 gets visible and also a new piece of text in the briefing gets visible to so players will get updated on their new objective. i know how to have hidden objectives but hidden text in briefing i don't know how to do  ???

Try putting the boats in one group.   Give them a load wp and synch it with the getin waypoint.    If it doesn't work give all the loons assignascargo and ordergetin true commands as well.

Can't be done.   Use hidden objectives with page links embedded in the objective.

to achieve a link to a separate page in a briefing, create a section between 2 <hr> tags. at the top, after the first <hr> put

Code: [Select]
<h2><a name="section_name"></a></h2>
then put in all the information for that page. then comes the second <hr> tag. that's the page made. to link to that page, use the following:

Code: [Select]
<a href="section_name">link text</a>
also, on the boats - two boats may be too big for just one squad, so try creating a few game logics, and in the init field of each, move them into the cargo spaces to fill them up. loons are then more likely to use both boats.

There's bound to be an example in either one of snYpir's briefing tutes or macguba's tute mission.
