Question: destroy static objects

[Para_Bellum]

I want to simulate an airfield attack. I've created a mock AF on the NTTR map. Now I want a "mission succesful" message once a certain percentage of all red objects (static objects and vehicles) within a trigger zone have been destroyed.

 

Any idea how to do that?

Edit: Think I misunderstood the question.

Nevermind, just placed invisible infantry in all structures.

Use MIST

Please tell me more about using mist to register destroyed static objects!

If you don't mind making the mission mod dependent then Lilkiki's fire objects are possibly better than infantry units http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2545192&postcount=39

Function: mist.flagFunc.mapobjs_dead_zones

Mapobjs_dead_zones is for map objects - buildings, bridges, etc, not for actual statics and units. Not to sure how to handle the statics, but if everything is in 1 group for the units, use a group alive less then trigger.

 

The value entered with this trigger is a percentage of the original groups size. So a group with 10 units, group alive less then 30 will activate after there are less then 3 vehicles of that group left.

Edit: You could use mist.flagFunc.group_alive_less_than as well instead of the ME trigger if you wanted to stick to scripting. I havnt worked much with statics, but the few times I have I've noticed a lot of bugs with them when it comes to interacting with them with a script.
