Help with mist.groupToRandomZone()

[AKA_Clutter]

All,

 

I'm trying to learn how to use this MIST function.  Seems simple, but I've screwed something up.  I have a group defined as Hiden_Squad_1 and have 4 zones defined as Search_Zone_1, Search_Zone_2, Search_Zone_3, 'Search_Zone_4.  And it doesn't work.

I load MIST v 4.5.126 when time is more than 1 second, and then run this as a do script after time is more than 20 seconds.

I have tried having the group active at the star and on the map or set up as late activation.

 

What am I missing?  Do I need to have MIST generate a table of units and/or zones at the start?

TIA


 

do
  mist.groupToRandomZone('Hiden_Squad_1', {'Search_Zone_1', 'Search_Zone_2','Search_Zone_3', 'Search_Zone_4'}, 'cone', nil, nil, true)
end

OK, 

 

Stupid me.  I was wanting to do one thing and thought I found the magic bullet.  Nope.  Went back and read the description of this function and it is doing EXACTLY what it said it would do.

To moves an existing group to a random location in one of the specified zones, randomly

What I was trying to do was to SPAWN a group in one of several zones randomly.  Back to the drawing board.
