need a little help with a recon mission.

[Naj-Treg]

Hi,

 

I am working on a multiplayer mission wich needs to do a recon first to get targets visible.

I know how to make the targets visible when a given unit enters the zone. But what i want to achieve is that a plane, (in my case a TF-51) fly through the given zone, then returns to base and lands. When the plane lands the targets will spawn so they can be attacked.

 

Basicly i need to know how to spanw an object when a given plane lands.

Is this possible? If so can someone explain me how to achieve this?

Ps. I am a noob @ scripting....:cry:

I searched alot on this but cant find an answer.

Something like this.

 

Make Enemy target units

----------------------------

Tank platoon -> set as late start

 

Zones

-------

Make "target area" over the Tank platoon and "airfield" over the landing airfield.

 

Triggers

---------

Plane sees tank -> If unit "Tf-51" in zone (target area) -> set Flag 1=true

 

Plane returns and Lands -> If unit "Tf-51" in zone (airfield) and unit "Tf-51" speed is <1 and Flag 1=True -> Activate "Tank Platoon"

 

-- This checks that you have flown over the area and spotted the tank platoon first and that you have landed and parked before enabling the tanks.

It gives you the report of groud vroups lat long position. So you can keep the fog of war totally. After landing, you ask for the report through F10radio menu.

 

I gives you unita and static objects. Then go to F10 map and pkot the enemies.

Thank you for your reply :thumbup:

 

Scripting is a bit too much for me... Just starting with the basics of mission building and triggers. Will have a look on it later on.

Using Maddog's example:

 

Type

1 ONCE (tanks spotted, NO EVENT)

Conditions

UNIT INSIDE ZONE (Player, targetarea)

Triggered actions

FLAG ON (1)

 

For the first one. For the second

Type

1 ONCE (player landed, NO EVENT)

Condition

UNIT INSIDE ZONE (player, landed)

UNIT'S SPEED LESS THAN (player, 1)

FLAG IS TRUE (1)

Triggered actions

GROUP ACTIVATE (tanks)
