chromium Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Hi, I have some trigger conditions that I want to be evauated only when a group is active, but I can't find the way to say to the editor that a particoular group is active or not. Obviously I can activate flags when a group comes active, but... I have more than 60 groups and a plenty of contitions for each one, it could be very time consuming :huh:. Is there a more clean way to archive this?

An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

Grimes Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Suppose the question is what exactly you are trying to accomplish with knowing when a group is active or not. But yeah, setting flag on when they are active, and then checking if that flag is true or false for the conditions is the best way to do it. I can't remember if "group in zone" only evaluates for activated groups or not, but you could try that. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Megagoth1702 Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yep, group/part of group in zone seems like a good solution...
