Can i use timer.scheduleFunction and Start command?

[Fallen_Tyrael]

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to get Uncontrolled AI to start their engines after a set time. so when they get shot down they will respawn instantly then sit on the tarmac and startup after X amount of time.

 

Here's what have:

if not Group.getByName('GroupName') then
mist.respawnGroup('GroupName', true)
mist.scheduleFunction(Group.getByName('GroupName'):getController():setCommand({["id"] = "Start", ["params"] = {}, }), timer.getTime() +120)
end

 

I have tried different variations of the code above but I cant seem to get it to work and was hoping someone here could help me or point me in the right direction?

 

Thank you in advance.

Don't think you can call the function quite like that. It is expecting a function name alone as the first variable and then the second variable has all the inputs.

 

 

Might have to do a lazy hack of creating a function to do that.

 

 

function start(gName)
Group.getByName('gName'):getController():setCommand({["id"] = "Start", ["params"] = {}, })
end

 

 

On death code

mist.scheduleFunction(start, {gName}, timer.getTime()+120)

Hi Grimes,

 

That worked, thank you so much! As you can probably tell I'm pretty new to this and I had looked for days to try and solve that one myself so much appreciated :)

Ill now go and see if adding multiple groups to that function start will work.

 

I maybe back...

 

Thank you again.
