Trigger Points


Sel94

Recommended Posts

So I'm just learning hao to use trigger points and I'm having a tiny bit of trouble.

1).I want units to capture an airfield for the trigger, but I can't find the name of the airfield.(It is an airdrome in the list, right?) So how do you find the names.

2). The term "flag" is used. What does that mean?

 

3).I'm asuming every unit = 1 point, right?

1. I'm not entirely sure. Probably the simplest way is to run a mission where you start in the parking area on that airfield, and then use the radio commands and see what it's addressed as. This annoys me too; it would be much easier if the airfield names were marked on the map.

 

2. A flag is a boolean value, i.e. either true or false. Flags are numbered from 1 to pretty much whatever you want. The trigger actions allow you set to "set" a flag (make it true) or "clear" a flag (make it false). The default value for all flags is false. Trigger conditions let you use a flag's state to determine whether trigger is activated or not, and also the very useful "time since flag" condition lets you have a trigger activate only after a particular flag has been true for a certain amount of time.

 

3. Different units are assigned different point values, presumably to reflect the difficulty involved in destroying a particular type of target. However I think points only matter for multiplayer. Single-player mission score is assigned using the goals system.

FAC in A-10 campaign wont yell targets

 

I am having trouble using trim + FFB settings for Logitech G940, so i have to press alt+j twice on starting mission in campaign. After that my trim works fine, but scripting of missions in campaign is screwed...

If you had cared to search the forums instead of starting yet another thread, you would've found a thread answering each of your questions.

 

Anyway:

1) a map is attached.

2) thread discussing flags

3) thread discussing points
