"Unit damaged" is bugged

[Taproot]

Hi.

 

I posted this in bugs/problems, but I you might help me with a workaround.

 

The bug:

I made some triggers that doesnt seem to work as they should.

 

The sequence:

1: When grp is alive set flag 1

2: When flag is more (10) play sound A

3: When hit set flag 2, play sound B

4: When grp is in zone (spawnpoint) and flag 2 is true play sound C

 

Well. This is happening, however. If I enter the aircraft in MP and then f ex go back to spectators, then reenter the aircraft, sequence 4 starts although I never got hit. So flag turns on if I leave the aircraft in any way.

 

I suspect this is not working as intended.

 

But I was hoping that you could help me find anoter "Unit damaged" trigger.. Or something.. >.<

 

Start the brainstorming :)

If you leave without being shot down I think your aircraft is "dead" so flag two would be true. You might want to add a unit in zone condition closer to where they may get shot down. Once that aircraft enters the zone then you could set another flag which would need to be true to get sound c

 

There is a useful mist script that I used where a flag is set when a unit is hit by another unit, whether by unit name, group, coalition- I could dig it up for you as it would solve the issue more directly.

What exactly is #3 - is that a Unit Damaged or a Group Dead?

 

If you exit to Spectators, does Flag 1 stay true?

 

Not sure about this, but if you exit to Spectators does that set a Group is Dead condition? (Which could be the same as #3.)\

 

Are you using Once type events, or Switched Condition? Since a Client can come in and out, I think that previous flags set by the Client on previous 'sessions' will stay set, since it is the same Group/unit.

 

 

Questions, questions! :-)

Add a Unit is Alive condition along with the damaged condition. It seems that the transition from group alive to group dead counts as damage. Switching to spectator counts the aircraft as "dead" for the triggers.
