Briefing, Triggers and Markers

[Wastelander]

Hi,

I am creating a little mission and would like to know how to hide/set the markers from players but give the mission in the Briefing.

I can setup markes and name then and edit the info in briefing but not sure how to hide them. ie red circle/shape for mission and green for complete..

I would also like to then show as mission complete in the briefing.


Thanks.

ps keep it VERY simple step by step if possible.

setmarkercolor

You would need:

"MyMarker" SetMarkerColor "ColorGreen";

"MyMarker" SetMarkerColor "ColorRed";

setmarkertype

To hide markers it is:

"MyMarker" SetMarkerType "Empty"

MyMarker = the name of your marker

If your marker is a grid or ellipse type of marker instead of an icon then you would need...

SetMarkerAlpha

"MyMarker" SetMarkerAlpha 0; <------ hides the marker

"MyMarker" SetMarkerAlpha 1; <------- reveals the marker

All good info but WHERE do you add this info ??

Thanks

If you have a trigger that sets an objective to complete using "SetTaskState" then the marker commands would go in the same init field as that.

Sorry I can't go into more detail at the moment but I'm pressed for time.

When you have time can you please expand?
