Im back with another crazy question. Basically what i need to know if it is in anyway possible to make a script color group trigger work ONLY after i have initiated a flag.
The idea is this, imagine a house and when you enter the house one of your squad mates follows and enters the house, you go into the basement while your guy waits above, after you enter the house you get back up and you have to kill a group of enemies and only then your mate starts going to its destination. I hope this explains it well.

You could disable_ai_color() while you don't want him to move, then enable_ai_color() when you do.

That could work, but if I walk through the same area, where the two color triggers are.
I think i have an idea, that i think could work:

Big trigger surounding all entrances to the house
- after i pass it disable ai_group
- enter the basement
- when you exit it trigger a .. trigger on the stairs with enabled ai group for the enmies, exit the basement where there is another trigger that disables them,
- finnaly getentarray enemies waittill death and enable them again.

A little complicated but it coujld possibly work.

well u dont have to disable your color group. you could do it this way, idk if it will work with ai's but i know it works for me on helis. In radiant go to the node where u want ur ai to wait till u call the flag out.on the key/values type in "script_flag_wait"/ "flag_name". So he will be waiting there till the "flag_name" is called via another trigger in game or via script. Im assuming u know how to call a flag via script and/or how to call one via radiant.

you could also disable the trigger after map load and enable it as soon as the flag is set. See raw\common_scripts\utility.gsc, trigger_on() / trigger_off()

I think the flag idea is the best onem ill give em a few tries as i havent tested flags in radiant before.
