Would someone be willing to explain to me how to set up random timers for random attacks throughout the game? I noticed in TerrainCreators map Operation Toxin that he/she has set up random timers and counters but I am unable to discern how they work. They are all, or near all, subroutines but I am unable to find the activating scripts, or teams who activate them. I would greatly appreciate any and all assistance in this matter.

Thats excellent, I like the idea. Having a bit of trouble wrapping my brain around it tho... Ill see if I can figure it out. Thankyou

About the RA_1_Build subroutine(s), how are they implemented?

Thankyou.[/quote] You're welcome, it seems harder than it is, i use random scripting for a couple of years now and i like the idea that you don't know with what units and from which side the ai attacks. There are much more possibilities with random teams, the scripts posted above take care of 1 active team, i made a map with 10 random teams from which multiple teams can be active at the same time, my goal is to make them work together and merge with other teams nearby in case of emergency. I call myself acidbrain because i really liked acid in my younger years, experienced the early days of housemusic, acieed, has nothing to do with my intelligence, basicly i am a big noob. Greetz

Well, noob or not you have a skillset there to be proud of. I had no idea even where to begin randomizing attack teams, and it was frustrating because I knew it was possible. Youve just cleared away some of the mud for me. And I wish you well on your endeavors, I am anxious to see them.

Study scripts from other people, i learned how to script that way, just make some testmaps and start playing around. I have another testmap for you if you are interested, it's a testmap for chinook drops, the ai checks if the player has a sw if the player does have a sw col. burton is droppped near the player base with a chinook, if col. burton has attacked the sw with a timed bomb auroras start attacking the sw also, the ai checks multiple areas to land with the chinook and lands in the savest area, if the player doesnt have a sw than a humvee with some troops are dropped in the savest area, the troops load into the humvee and start hunting, if the humvee is attacked by the player it unloads and the infantry starts hunting. I also made some scripts that make troops stop for a coming train, if the train has passed the troops go on with what they were doing. If you are interested just let me know, it's fun to hang around in testmaps, i spent hundreds and hundreds of hours that way Greetz and Have Fun

Absolutely! If youre willing to share Im willing to gander! I do study scripting...somewhat. I confuse easily tho so that makes it hard.

Posted by: slird - Sunday, May 17, 2015 7:40:52 PM
Are the scripts setup for a skirmish player, or a regular computer player? I set them up exactly like they are in the test map but they are not working for some reason.
