Hi, I'm able to get jeeps, Tigers and shermans all drive about in the same map.

How ever, the Tiger only shoots at me, wen i move behind a wall, the Tiger then shoots at the Ai that jump form the American jeep. once they are dead, it focus's on me and constantly shoots the wall.

The sherman in the level just sits there and doesnt shoot at all.

Wot i am after is to be able to control the tanks, to shoot at each other first, then me if the tiger is still alive.

Any1 got any ideas.

I have been reading the Newvillers.gsc for help but most of the stuff i try never works, i am hopeless at Scripting, i only copy paste stuff i already seen on here mainly.

Here is my script i am using atm,

everything works fine, i just want the tanks to shoot each other, and not me and especially the Tiger.
main()
{
//*** Init Map
maps\_jeep::main("xmodel/vehicle_africa_jeep");
maps\_tiger::main("xmodel/vehicle_tiger_woodland_brush");
maps\_sherman::main("xmodel/vehicle_american_sherman");
maps\_load::main();
thread jeep();
thread tank_a();
thread tank_b();
}

jeep()
{

maps\_vehicle::scripted_spawn(1); // Spawns vehiclegroup 1

level.vehicle = getent("vehicle", "script_noteworthy");
path = getvehiclenode ("vehicle_start_path", "script_noteworthy");

level.vehicle attachPath(path);

//wait 2;

level.vehicle startPath();

level.vehicle waittill("reached_end_node");
level.vehicle notify ("unload");

// Uncomment these to blow up the jeep -- No guys flying around as they are already playing an animation :S
//wait 0.2;
//level.vehicle doDamage( level.vehicle.health + 200, (0,0,0) );
//level.vehicle notify ("death");
}

tank_a()
{

node = getvehiclenode("tiger_activate", "script_noteworthy");
node waittill("trigger");

tiger = getent("tiger", "script_noteworthy");
path = getvehiclenode ("tiger_start_node", "script_noteworthy");

tiger attachPath(path);

//wait 2;

tiger startPath();

tiger waittill("reached_end_node");
tiger notify ("unload");

// Uncomment these to blow up the jeep -- No guys flying around as they are already playing an animation :S
//wait 0.2;
//level.vehicle doDamage( level.vehicle.health + 200, (0,0,0) );
//level.vehicle notify ("death");
}

tank_b()
{

node = getvehiclenode("sherman_activate", "script_noteworthy");
node waittill("trigger");

sherman = getent("sherman", "targetname");
path = getvehiclenode ("sherman_start_node", "targetname");

sherman attachPath(path);

//wait 10;

sherman startPath();

sherman waittill("reached_end_node");
sherman notify ("unload");

// Uncomment these to blow up the jeep -- No guys flying around as they are already playing an animation :S
//wait 0.2;
//level.vehicle doDamage( level.vehicle.health + 200, (0,0,0) );
//level.vehicle notify ("death");


}

Cheers Wolf

Bumped!

P.S cud an admin stick this in the SP section of CoD2 pls. even tho the title says CoD :P

Ok, i fixed the problem. Added this script to the tiger thread and it shoots the sherman out then goes for me :D:D:D:D

level.vehicle setTurretTargetEnt( getent ("sherman","script_noteworthy"), ( 0, 0, 64 ) );
level.vehicle waittill( "turret_on_vistarget" );
wait 2;
level.vehicle FireTurret();

Scratch my last post, wont work :(

Im sure theres a VERY CLEVER scripter out there who wants to help porr little old me out !!!! PLZ! :)

Im feeling pretty suicidal atm

Still no luck, any1 else want to try?

No wonder you have so many posts...

I don't know any thing that can help you with the script exept you might wanna take out the lines that say this...

// Uncomment these to blow up the jeep -- No guys flying around as they are already playing an animation :S

Remove that and if you are still having problems with it I can't help. Although I have an idea for a better scene.


Have the Tiger come around a corner and shoot the jeep. Then have a Sherman that was following you come up and fire and kill the tiger, then move on.

Thats the problem I have m8. I "CANT" get the tanks to fire at each other?

Ps. the commented stuff is fine, that isnt causing any problems, ive already trialed and errored on it ;)
