Okay um..try this first, and then if it doesn't work, we will figure it out: wave_1() { trig = getent("trwave_1 ","targetname"); trig waittill("trigger"); spawners = getentarray("wave_1", "targetname"); level thread maps\_spawner::spawnerflood_spawn (spawners); for (i=0; i < spawners.size; i++ ) { spawners stalingradspawn(); } } so maybe if we totally forgot about the if(isDefined(spawners), we can make it work.. To Grassy, since my deafault script works and doesn't have any of those if(isDefined(spawners) or if(isAlive(spawners) lines, I'm simply guessing those are unecessary to spawn the ai...As for the array value, it sounds right, but writing it this way works fine: flak_rushers() { spawners = getentarray("flak_rushers", "targetname"); level thread maps\_spawner::spawnerflood_spawn (spawners); for (i=0; i < spawners.size; i++ ) { spawners stalingradspawn(); } } This is getting complicated since sometimes i don't understand the code

Babycop - as Grassy said you've missed the index count on the number of spawners. That's the letter i in brackets. Code: wave_1() { trig = getent("trwave_1 ","targetname"); trig waittill("trigger"); spawners = getentarray("wave_1", "targetname"); level thread maps\_spawner::spawnerflood_spawn (spawners); for (i=0; i < spawners[i].size; i++ ) { if(isDefined(spawners[i]) { spawners[i] stalingradspawn(); } } } To Snake-NL, you said: Quote: when i shot the german no new spawn will come back. if you're using only one axis AI to respawn, then you don't need a getentarray, just a getent. Code: wave_1() { trig = getent("trwave_1 ","targetname"); trig waittill("trigger"); spawner = getent("wave_1", "targetname"); level thread maps\_spawner::spawnerflood_spawn (spawner); spawner stalingradspawn(); } Hope this helps, but I haven't tested it. AND of course remember to give your AI a "count" or you'll only get one spawn! edited on May. 22, 2007 12:56 pm by Yorkshire-Rifles

i have 8 germans that spawn behind a wall and need to run to the cover nodes when the player hits the trigger. After 1 german (or more) get killed the need to spawn again and run to the nodes again. I have given them the count of 3. and what exactly means: getentarray? or what does it do?

getent is for a single actor. It means get the entity that has ("wave_1", "targetname"); for example. If there is more than one ai (or entity), then you have to use the script command getentarray. It tells the script to get an array of entities with the targetname of wave_1. In that case, you have to use this command since there is more than one entity. for (i=0; i < spawners[ i ].size; i++ ) and not forget to put that [ i ] after spawners cuz there's more than one of them. spawners[ i ] stalingradspawn(); Is the script working by the way? **Note that there shouldn't be spaces in the brackets containing the ''i''. I had to put them or it didn't show up in this thread since it only put my writing in italic (thus the reason i had a typo before)

I don't see anything wrong, but try tihs, I took away the if(isDefined(spawners) :
