More mission editor triggers not working

It's been reported in the 1.5 beta bugs topic that the "UNIT IN ZONE" trigger doesn't work and so it is with the 1.5 release version as well.

 

I've also found that the "ALL OF GROUP IN ZONE" trigger seems to work in multiplayer for AI groups, but not for human players. Perhaps everyone can post here any other triggers that they find are broken in the release version.

 

I wonder what other triggers are broken? I'll be testing other as we replay my old missions in the release version of 1.5. I'm hoping that ED soon will take a close look at these mission editor triggers that are no longer working. Kinda sucks to fly all the way to a combat area and you don't trigger the event.

Update for triggers in 1.5 release multiplayer only (I'm no longer playing or testing in single player).

 

* UNIT INSIDE ZONE - Works if the unit is AI .... Does not work if the unit is a client.

 

* ALL OF GROUP IN ZONE - Works if the group is AI .... Does not work if the group are client(s).

 

* PART OF GROUP IN ZONE - Does not work if the group is AI or clients.

 

Can anyone confirm these, or have found anything different? Remember, multiplayer only.

These bugs are related to a more serious issue that i have just identified. Currently doing a lot of tests to validate the correctness of the problem. After having done the required validations, i will send a report to ED documenting the issue. Keep posted.

Guys, I'm talking about the built in mission editor triggers, not triggers run by scripting. Are you saying that bug 31682 - Client groups not accessible in multiplayer.... is the cause of the mission editor trigger UNIT INSIDE ZONE not working?

 

UNIT INSIDE ZONE - Works if the unit is AI .... Does not work if the unit is a client....... is especially troublesome to me as it renders almost half of my existing missions to a non working state.

Hi

 

PART OF GROUP IN ZONE AND ALL OF GROUP IN ZONE don't work with only one plane in the group (Tested with Human player).

Version 1.5.2.49392

Thanks for testing. I've been so busy trying to repair all my old missions to account for all these trigger bugs that I haven't had much time to test further.

I've experienced that "unit in zone" works for AI and works if there is only 1 player in each flight (if you want more players you have to copy/paste the flight in the old way).

If you put more than 1 player in the flight the trigger is broken.

That is in multiplayer, in single it is always fine.

How is the situation in 1.5.3 release? I very need these in multiplayer for client flights even if there is just 1 client connected in a 4client group:

 

PART OF GROUP IN ZONE

ALL OF GROUP IN ZONE

UNIT INSIDE ZONE

 

and

 

OUT OF ZONE

Sorry to say my friend, it is unlikely that a fix will be available soon. There may be workarounds. Do you know mist?

Is it working in 1.5.4 ?

 

 

 

This bug is definitely a PITA for mission building...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guys, I have the solution for all these people, but you'll have to learn a bit of lua. Tomorrow I will do a little write-up how to use the moose (Mission Object Oriented Scripting Environment) framework implementing some easy lua scripts to test a variety of zones beyond the circle to polygons etc.

 

 

 

As a warm up, have a look at this video...

Yeah, it's very frustrating for me too. I have missions that worked prior to the last patch and the hotfix and now they won't work. So stuff gets broken then fixed then broken then fixed again. I hope that they're working to resolve a lot of the broken scripting and triggering issues.

Agree that COALITION AIRCRAFT IN ZONE would be super helpful. :thumbup:

 

That ^^^ is primarily why I use Mist. Variations of this simple script are quite useful.

 

 

I DO AGREE with you feefifofum - it would be a lot simpler than having to code it ourselves, like below:

 

mist.flagFunc.units_in_zones{ 
units = {'[blue][plane]'}, 
zones = {'Test Zone'}, 
flag = 50107, 
zone_type = 'cylinder', 
}

Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms. All released missions are available for free download, modification and public hosting, from my Wrecking Crew Projects site.
