Activate enemy AI aircraft

[Vespa]

I'm wondering if, building an online mission, I can activate enemy aircrafts to take of and intercept user Aircraft when the user enter into a spoecific area (approaching enemy airfield or zone...for example)

Thanks for feedback

You can simple edit the mission whit trigger zone or use some script like this http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=118935

Thanks for feedback Gaanalma...just a question: most of those scripts require MIST library...do any online users need that library installed on their PC to fly the mission based on MIST?

What a pain this Mission Editor :(

 

Created an AI Dora Group

Created a trigger zone named Zone A

 

Added the following settings in ME

 

 

It doesn't work...Dora take off as soon as the mission start

You didn't set the Fw190 to LATE ACTIVATION or UNCONTROLLED.

 

When you place units on the map they will be active unless you tell them not to activate.

 

Late activation means they are not on the map at all, and then appear when you activate them with the trigger.

 

Uncontrolled means the units are on the map, but have no pilot. Uncontrolled units are already activated. To make them start, you need to use a "start" command in triggered actions.

I really appreciate your help guys...hope to figure out how this things works...no luck so far

What I did..

- Set FW190 uncontrolled

- Added a Task for the unconctrolled AI Dora

- Set a Trigger Zone

- Set a condition to make AI DOra starting when any of the opposite groups enter into the Trigger Zone

- Added a message to all when the point above occurs.

 

 

 

When Allied Group plane enter into the Trigger Zone I see the message to all....but Dora doesn't start :( ....I tried Start command too instead Task Push ...same result. Help pls!

 

Additional, setting the Search and Engage in Zone create a new zone for the Dora, smaller then Trigger Zone ... I thought I could select the trigger Zone already created to start search and engage action......

 

What I'm aming to do:

- Dora are visible on their airfield...no pilots inside.

- when allied P-51 eneter into a specific zone....meaning get into the german front, the Dora get alarm and take off to intercept allied P-51

- if the threat is over (allied P-51 get back home immediately...for example), Dora return to their base...otherwise Dora try to intercept and engage P-51

No help?

[Exorcet]

Uncontrolled requires that the aircraft is parked at an airfield, and a start command exists to start the engine if the plane is to takeoff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First step with triggers is to clone the one you made. Then change the AI task push in the original to refer to the start command. Then add a flag 1 on to the list of actions.

 

Next, go to the cloned trigger. Change the condition to time since flag 1 is x seconds.
