Ima big BIG fan of your tutorials about arma2 scripting & editing, but i have this question, frequently going through my head: Do your scripts work for Multiplayer? Say Coop?"

Frenquently, man.

you have to set the height of them as they are only static units there is a addon out there i got it the other day which makes them driveable. Ill fing it for you and send the link to set the height of the ships enter this into the Ships Init Line:

this setPos [(getPos this) select 0, (getPos this) select 1, 20];

The 20 at the end is the Height it will get set at change it till you get it right.

You have to place the scripts in the mission folder located in arma 2\your profile\missions then your mission

There's a whole wiki for these things on bohemia. I think every script command is filed.


That's the site you need to check for all the scripting commands in-game. Also the formats are rather simple. Everything you need to actually script in arma is right there.

Managed to get your script working in my mission.
I was wondering, if mission maker wants to call in Arty more than once, where would one alter the script and which one. Fire? Arty?

Hey man, I think it ain't possible. Think the game follows it's own language for everything. SQF and SQS only. I've never tried using C++ but I'm guessing it ain't possible "/

Some do, some bug. The thing is often in Coop I never script. Because it never is 100% accurate especially with AI being retarded!
