Repeating detections

FERdeBOER · 09-01-05, 05:24 PM

Hello all.
Is possible to make only one trigger that repeats everytime that happens?

IÂ´m trying to make a training mission and I would like to tell the player (in a sub) that he has been detectec.

i.e. the player goes in his sub(say an Akula), and there is another sub (a Han). The Han detects the Akula, the Akula breaks the contact, but time after the Han detects again the Akula.
Is possible to make a trigger that tells the player averytime the Han regains the contact?

Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you for your fast answer.

IÂ´ve just write a big message... and it has been deleted

I said that I tried the CAN REFIRE option before, but with no very good results.

In trying a new mission: you go with an Akula, detect a Trafalgar, you speed up to flank, cavitate, and the contact is lost.
Then you reduce to 1/3 and regain contact.

And I want that a message appears when you gain and lost the contact.
Whe the contact is lost, I have no problems, the message appears, then you regain contact and if you lost the contact again, the message apeears once more time (I use CAN REFIRE).

But my problem is with the message of geting the contact. It repeats again, and again... with the tempo I have set in the RESET TIME. The conatc is lost, and still is the message of the detection.
It not stops even if the contact is too far away for any detection!

I have tried with various combinations of scripts that kills the repeating, but then, the message doesnÂ´t appear again when the contact is regained.

Maybe IÂ´m pointing too high for my capabilities. It would be easier (but longer) to make various triggers for various contacts... or thinking in another kind of mission.

Thank you very much for your help, I will still trying to find a solution.
