Hey guys,
I am having some trouble with the two tanks in my map.

the sequence is that the sherman rolls down the road then the tiger drives out in front of it and blows the sherman to smitherines.

I get an error like this..

undefined is not an entity:

tiger1 attachPath(path);

Here is my GSC

main()
{
//*** Init Map
maps\_sherman::main("xmodel/vehicle_american_sherman");
maps\_tiger::main("xmodel/vehicle_tiger_woodland_brush");
maps\_load::main();
thread tank_a();
thread tank_b();
}

tank_a()
{

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

sherman1 = getent("sherman1", "script_noteworthy");
path = getvehiclenode ("vehicle_start_path", "script_noteworthy");

sherman1 attachPath(path);

wait 2; // so player can realise what is happening:-)

sherman1 startPath();

}

tank_b()
{

tiger1 = getent("tiger1", "script_noteworthy");
path = getvehiclenode ("tiger1_start_path", "script_noteworthy");

tiger1 attachPath(path);

wait 2; // so player can realise what is happening:-)

tiger1 startPath();

level.vehicle setTurretTargetEnt( getent ("sherman1","script_noteworthy"), ( 0, 0, 64 ) );
level.vehicle waittill( "turret_on_vistarget" );
wait 2;
level.vehicle FireTurret(); // bye bye sherman

}

Also how do you trigger vehicles?

Intresting but i'm not found any toutorials about attacking or fireing tank. Maby somebody knows how do this?

afflicted, but being French, I maitrise not well your language.

I believe to understand that your problem would be related to explode a tank of sherman.

if it is that, I give you a code which makes it possible to explode a truck while drawing on its tank. I think that the principle must be the same one.

main()
{
	camion();
}

camion()
{
      level._effect["cambang"] = loadfx("fx/explosions/large_vehicle_explosion.efx");
      level._effect["camfeu"] = loadfx ("fx/fire/building_fire_large.efx");

      camions = getentarray("camion", "targetname");
      if(isdefined(camions))
      {
         for(i=0; i<camions.size; i++)
         {
               camions[i] thread declenche();
         }
     }
}

declenche()
{
      trig = getent(self.target, "targetname");
      trig thread boumcam(self);
}

boumcam(camion)
{
        camstroy = getent(self.target,"targetname");
        camstroy hide();

	while(1)
	{
         self waittill ("trigger");
                       {
                        bouchon= getent("bouchone","targetname");
                        reservoir= getent("reservoire","targetname");
                        origin = camion getorigin ();

		        playfx(level._effect["cambang"], origin);

		        playfx(level._effect["camfeu"], origin);

                        camion playsound("explovehicul");
 
                        camion delete();

                        radiusDamage(origin, 300, 200, 40);
                        wait(0.1);
                        radiusDamage(origin + (0, 0, 20), 300, 200, 40);
                        wait(0.1);

                        camstroy show();

                        bouchon delete();
                        reservoir delete();

                        break;
		       }
            }
}

Translate targetname in english
truck = camion
stopper= bouchon
tank = reservoir

if you manage to make move vehicles, I will be to interest. could you put on line your 2 gsc

maps\_sherman::main("xmodel/vehicle_american_sherman");
maps\_tiger::main("xmodel/vehicle_tiger_woodland_brush");

I mean , how can i make sherman shooting in sp map?
p.s. sry for my bad english.

thnx for your help,

I have been reading through the newvillers GSC and i found this..

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

Does this have any significance i also saw it in this thread

bump...

lol im stuck on this fellas plz help...

"Undefined" means the script didn't find the entity in the map, this could be due to a typo, mismatched name, or bad naming practice.

Check the naming of that tank in the map editor and make sure it matches what you have in the script.

Also instead of using the same alias name as the entity name and looking at a script_noteworthy option.

Try this and see what happens:
tiger = getent("tiger1","targetname");

Nope got the same error, but mabey if i trigger them....

Could someone plz direct me to a tut on triggering vehicles

Thnx in advance,
Mr.Cache

You need more info, otherwise your chasing a ghost.

Which actual entity is undefined?
It should tell you what entity was not defined in the console.
It could be your pathnode, not the tank!
