Destroyed Aircraft still trying to scramble

[moespeeds]

I'm building a mission where once a ground group reaches 75% it triggers an uncontrolled CAP flight to "Start" and scramble. A message is sent out to the Friendly coalition when they scramble.

I'm trying to create a check where if the CAP Group is destroyed before the ground group triggers them to scramble, no message is sent to the friendly coalition.

 

-When the artillery group reaches 75% or less, it triggers the L39s to scramble and sends a message to Blue

 

-If the L39 group is already destroyed on the tarmac, no message should be sent

 

For this action I tried the following with no luck. No matter what it still sends the scramble message to blue, even if the L39s are destroyed:

 

Under conditions, GROUP ALIVE

Also, I tried making a trigger where if the L39 group is alive a flag is set to true, if they are destroyed it goes to false

Then I use "FLAG IS TRUE" as a condition for sending the message. Still no luck.

 

What am I doing wrong here?

You got to set two conditions in the same trigger event, something like this:

 

MISSION START/ no condition /FLAG 1 Flase

ONCE/GROUP Scramble is DEAD/Flag 1 True

ONCE/GROUP ALIVE LESS THAN 75% AND FLAG 1 False/ START Scarmble + Message

Thank you! I ended up setting a trigger zone so if they rolled out of their parking spots it sends the message, but I'll change it later. I appreciate the help!

With pleasure!

You might also consider using UNIT'S LIFE LESS THAN; especially when using aircraft on the ramp, it can be difficult to completely destroy the unit and trigger the DEAD condition.

 

I think checking if the group has moved out of their parking area, as you have done, is probably the easiest solution. :thumbup:
