Trouble Turning Off Immortality periodically for Ground Troops

[Mangrove Jack]

In building a small mission I have been trying to turn the Immortality of Ground Troops off for a short period of say 5 seconds and then back on. I have been using the condition flag of "Is User Flag" and then trying to combine with switched conditions and Repetitive Conditions based on a rocket/rockets in a zone. This is all with normal MB flags and not any code- I am not really good with that side of things. However nothing seems to work out for me.

Is anyone to give me any pointers?

Are you finding it inconsistent or just not working at all?  Triggers like "rocket in zone" are tricky if you have too small of zone because it's only checking once per second, so if it's a small zone the rocket can enter and exit before it's checked.  This will give you inconsistency that will drive you batty until you figure it out.  If it's just never working it could be something else.

More details or a copy of the code/mission would be helpful.

It's just not working (although I thought at 1 stage it did). The zone is big enough.

I have attached a test mission just concentrating on this section of mission. Hopefully someone can help. I surmise it's the way I have set up the "switched" and Repetitive" conditions. I have tried them is different ways. even tried 2 repetitive conditions instead of switched, with more flags and that did nothing as well.

I am staring to think the issue is using Hydra 70 M151 Rockets to trigger the condition. I can only find Bomb in Zone and Missile in Zone. The Hydra is listed in missile in Zone so I used it. Maybe the wrong thing.

Just tested.

I changed Hydra condition to a bomb in zone (GBU-12) and it triggered a message. Setting back to the Missile in Zone with the Hydra and message is not triggered.
