[FOCK]ers IED

[Mikie boy]

ive just tried your map and drove one of the HMVV into a town - both ieds went off - i have no mods running whatsoever when i tested it. So it worked fine for me. any other infor you can give me to assist target the problem?

Hmm.. okay, thanks for testing. I'm running SP, not on server. I have no other ideas. I'll keep digging.

Great script has really added to our missions

All working great on dedi with the exception of one issue - we cant seem to destroy the IED factory when we find it.

Should the factory be destroyable?

Once the factory is destroyed does it stop producing IEDs or do we just have to kill the bomb maker to halt the production of IED's?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Tested without ACE and it worked fine - Tested with ACE and the factory becomes indestructable. Any ideas?

Hey Mikie, This is the line that was getting me;

waituntil {count playableUnits >= 1};

I guess SP (non server) doesn't like it. Commented it out and works fine.

Thanks again for the script!

Ah nice one, glad u got it working. Sorry that was designed to halt everything when player all left server.

Doodle, check the event handle for the tent . Think u need pipe bombs to blow it. Can't remember if they are used in ace. Maybe that is the prob? If I get a chance I'll take a look. Glad u like the script .

Mikie Boy: Just to let you know I commented out the //IEDFactory addEventHandler ["HandleDamage",{(_this select 4) == "PipeBomb"}]; and it now works perfect. Probably a better way of doing it but this cheap and dirty way solved my problem.

Thanks

nice one -you can always insert the name of the pipe bombs used in ace instead of "pipebomb". make sure the suicide bombers are edited out if you havent downloaded them - theres a link in this thread

Weird thing is the satchel charge in ACE is called "pipebomb" so there is no difference in name - tried with a few other munitions but same result - To use in an ACE mission I have to comment out the handledamage eventhandler.tp be able to blow the factoory.

Also Am I correct in thinking that once the IED factory is destroyed then no more IED's are spawned?

Thanks
