Check that path is correct and open doghous3 or my example to add a line printing smth on screen to confirm that mission is loaded.

30 tics a second give you 1800 tics per minute.

if (Time.tickCounter() % 1200 == 0)

1200 - is cycle here
0 - is initial delay before running script.

I'd suggest taking doghous3 script to start with and just change filenames in it to avoid simple mistakes. This is what I did with his mission.

Hope your on still

I double checked mine and doghouse's map.... neither planes load... the message pops up but thats it... i load on the game console and it mentions "load failed"... Any reason behind this :S? Steam and VAC? :S
See attached picture

Cycle here - ? whats that lol update Is this the part where it "reloads" itself? or "deletes" itself??

Cheers

DOH - HANG ON A SEC

LOL never laughed at myself so much... copy and paste - bad idea... forgot my sub folder in the line... all my own missions are saved in "Ross" folder... talk about wasting a few hours - ALL FIXED NOW

Still need an answer on the cycle though!

Check if you put it in the correct directory. Doghous3 mission runs on the SYN server just fine atm.

By cycle I mean it reloads a 2nd mission (sub-mission) every 1200 ticks in this example that is every 40 seconds.

New version of "Battle of France"

Added guns to tankers.
Spawns assigned to runways on some airfields.
etc.

Ack next question

Any script or trigger to remove AI after mission? or should i just get them to RTB then "vanish"...

Cheers

[mcler002]

Ok people

This is what i have made so far...

3 sub missions (b1 4xhe115 attack convoy, b2 8x he111 attack base, r1 12xblenheim attack base)

So many things can be changed/ done differently after learning a few things about script...

However, please feel free to have a look and make comments (bad or good!)

All i really want to know now is:

a) can you end the sub missions before the script starts the new one
b) bring back destory "static" objects after "x" amount of time?

Cheers

Ross

Note - If you are going to use my game maps, make sure you change the script directory for each sub mission!!! in "OnlineBoB" - Hope you understand!!!

Discussed here http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...t=21518&page=2
I think a good idea would be to disable AI controls or kill engine with a script in 30 minutes after the last waypoint and destroy it 10 minutes later.

We need such a script badly. Hope someone with C# knowledge can write it for us.
