Getting infantry to advance

[gavvo81]

Hiya

I've made a really brilliant map of Omaha beach, even General Rommel would be proud..

All triggers for the LCVPs (move, open doors, emit) are sound. Have organised several waves of these boats to approach the beach, which they do in good order. The infantry get out and either swim/run..

HOWEVER, only a handful of troops actually move forwards across the beach to engage the Germans, whilst the majority just stand around in the water smoking fags. I've tried issuing all troops a 'waypoint' trigger behind the german lines, once they get out of the boats but this just causes the soldiers to run towards the Germans in a line and get shot down in consecutive order. I want them to move forwards simultaneously in staggered formations, on a large front (and not queuing up to get killed)

I've tried the 'Action' trigger with both the 'advance / move' commands to a set zone or waypoint but these don't seem to work.

Can anyone help me out here? Am sure the troops would appreciate it if they could actually take the beach head too
