Well so far there is no Editing/Scripting section so i will post it here.

Game Logic:

Looks like Game Logics can not moved ( setPos ) any longer.
I do used Game Logics to create a move point.

Example:

_group = _this select 0;

_logic = "Logic" createVehicle [0, 0, 0];

_logic setPos (getPos player);

_group move (getPos _logic);

setCaptive:

Units which do use the setCaptive command are now on side civilian.

Example:

player setCaptive True;

if (side player == civilian) then {hint "Damn it im supposed to be a soldier!"};

I don't like the thought that you're using game logics for this.

Use markers or "H (invisible)" instead.


Btw.. Check out locations. Might be exactly what you're trying to do with game logics.

Also, I don't get why you want to do:

_group = _this select 0;

_logic = "Logic" createVehicle [0, 0, 0];

_logic setPos (getPos player);

_group move (getPos _logic);

When you can just do

_group doMove getPos player

or

_group move position player

?????


PS: I prefer doMove as it will make the unit move to the position, where as move creates a waypoint for the unit. (Unless of course, you're building a path)

Yes the part with the logic was just an example.

Of course i would never do something like that.

Well i use addWaypoint instead of a logic.

Why do you need to create anything to move them?

Why not just move them with doMove?

Becouse i need a object that is setPost with a random value every time i call it.

And then let the group move to it.

Why not just:

_group doMove [random 3000, random 3000, 0]

?????

Can't you use a waypoint for that?

Strange that gamelogics can't be moved though.

Is there a way to see the list of possible respawn options with A2? You know, like bird, base,group, etc?

_group doMove [random 3000, random 3000, 0]

Well i know all thouse way's how to let a unit/group move from A to B it wasn't a request to tell me how to slove this problem.

The only reason, why i started this thread was to let the community know about some new command behaviours.


Helicopter Landing:

The command "Get In" was changed to "GETIN"

I think its the same goes for "GET OUT" use "GETOUT" instead.
