Possible to change the ROE of all units within a trigger zone?

[Frag]

Hi guys,

 

I get how to individually change the ROE state of units independently.

 

But when you have a big zone with dozens of units ... it gets painful really fast.

 

Anyone found a trick to change the ROE of all units within a zone (or a large list).

 

Example:

 

- A BLUE collation plane has permission to pass over a large zone. All RED units have ROE WEAPON HOLD.

 

- Then out of sudden the region commander orders that this aircraft must be shut down ...so I want all units in the region to engage if possible (ROE WEAPON FIRE)

 

Looking for generic code that would loop thru all units, instead of coding each one of those.

I use sets and iterators for that (and for many other things).

 

For instance (MOOSE example):

 

 

local GroupSet = SET_GROUP:New()

:FilterPrefixes( "Common ME group name prefix that the relevant groups must use" )

:FilterStart()

 

GroupSet:ForEachGroupAlive(

function(GroupSet)

GroupSet:OptionAlarmStateRed()

end

)

 

-- Depending on the type of units in each group, you might have to use other ROE options (for compatibility reasons)

 

GroupSet:ForEachGroupAlive(

function(GroupSet)

GroupSet:OptionROEWeaponFree()

end

)

 

 

Check the the MOOSE documentation for CONTROLLABLE class, you'll find all the relevant ROE functionalities listed there.
