AI flights ''magnum'' calls

[84-Simba]

Hi !

I'd like to set up a trigger for a specific flight to call ''Magnum'' when they fire an HARM (and apply this to other brevities) and report when a specific target is destroyed.

How should I proceed ?

I'm not talking about my wingmen but other AI flights.

I tried the radio options but it does not work.

(Flight is 4x F/A-18C Lot 20)

Thx

Triggers don't really provide the fidelity needed to accomplish that. Best you can do is use weapon in zone, but you don't know who shot it, where it is going, and easily account for multiple missiles being launched to call magnum on each.  

Easiest would be to resort to scripting and using an event handler to manage it. Simply because with the shot event you can know the unit that shot it, the weapon type, and if available the target object.
