Making ships change speeds.
I've read here on the forums that clicking on a waypoint and changing tactics won't work. Well, I seriously need some kind of work-around for that problem :). I'm trying to make a ship follow the course set by the waypoints (no problems there), but at a certain point, I want it to change its speed. I tried changing it for the next waypoint, but that didn't work. Will the ship change speed if I use a script?
And, by the way, after the weekend, I think I'll need a tester or two for a campaign I'm creating. Just to play through it, check for errors in my english, fix bugs that I haven't noticed so far etc... If you have a good imagination, that would help too. I've been working on the storyline for this one for such a long time now that I think I have exhausted my own imagination :D. If anyone wants to help, send me a PM! |

Using scripts
They do work, you can use goals (if ship enters one, its speed will then be changed). But like MaHuJa said, the priorities of scripts/doctrines etc. might create problems. In one of my mission there had been a reactor problem and the crew was leaving the sub, which was supposed to remain in surface. I ended up using 3 separate scripts, all of which were constantly re-triggering, to achieve this. Despite all my efforts the sub dived immediately after spotting the player's P-3. I suggest the only thing you can do is test...

Transit
That about "transit" is true :up: , but in this peculiar case I used the "transit" tactic. (As far I can remember...) Nevertheless, I finally had to re-write the mission, with the sub sinking as a part of the mission. :damn:
It sure would be nice to be able to truly force the units to do something, but after some testing it usually is possible to find a (some sort of) working solution. And thanks to LwAmimod, the AI units no longer need that much guidance. :up: Miika |
