AI: Set Satchel & Launch Charge.

[Brandon]

I have this "Command Editor" From OFP still and the commands it gives I guess don't work for Arma2... Previously I suppose it was:

Code: [Select]

unitname fire["Put", "Pipebomb"]

unitname action ["touchoff"]
Can anyone let me know what it is now? Thanks.

Edit: Also - In addition, is there a way to level a small section of forest? I was going to use AI to set a large amount of satchels there, but perhaps theres a better - faster way - but I have no experience with scripting so I don't know what sort of script would be best to look for.

The same method should still work. The only difference is that the action command now requires you to repeat the name of the unit a second time, as a second parameter. It should look like this:

Code: [Select]

myUnit action ["TOUCHOFF", myUnit]
The remotely detonated satchel is still called pipeBomb. And if I remember it correctly the timer version of the satchel is called timeBomb.

EDIT: Destroying large quantities of map objects was discussed here a few days ago in this thread. Unfortunately the two participants didn't share their mutual solution with the rest of the world  , but if they do I'm sure the same techniques that apparently works on buildings could be used on trees as well.

To place the satchel:

Code: [Select]

unitname fire ["pipebombmuzzle", "pipebombmuzzle", "pipebomb"];
To detonate it:

Code: [Select]

unitname action ["TOUCHOFF", unitname];
