III.KG1 Ju88 Campaign Script help request

[dflion]

I have worked out the basic script trigger types for each mission (there are three basic types) - here they are.

Mission 1. 'Group to pass through twice and land at the same airfield' (1 mission)
Missions 2 and 3. 'Group to pass through once and land at different airfield' (2 missions)
Missions 4 to 12. 'Group to pass through twice and land at same airfield' + 'target ground destroyed'. (9 missions)

All missions are to be linked to the next one, with a 'successfully completed' or 'failed' scripting.

My original script is shown below

//$reference Campaign.dll
//-$debug
using System;
using maddox.game;
using maddox.game.world;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics; // for Stopwatch timer


public class Mission : maddox.game.campaign.Mission {

public override void OnBattleStarted() {
base.OnBattleStarted();
}

public override void OnTrigger(int missionNumber, string shortName, bool active) {
if ("trigger01".Equals(shortName) && active) {

AiAction action = GamePlay.gpGetAction(ActorName.Full(missionNumber, "KG1_Ju88_01"));
if (action != null)
action.Do();
action = GamePlay.gpGetAction(ActorName.Full(missionNumber, "KG1_Ju88_02"));
if(action != null)
action.Do();


GamePlay.gpGetTrigger(shortName).Enable = false;
}
}

public override bool IsMissionListener(int missionNumber) {
return true;
}


private void checkLanded(AiAircraft aircraft) {
if (GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place() != aircraft)
return;
GamePlay.gpHUDLogCenter("Press Esc to end mission.");
}

public override void OnAircraftLanded(int missionNumber, string shortName, AiAircraft aircraft) {
checkLanded(aircraft);
}

public override void OnAircraftCrashLanded(int missionNumber, string shortName, AiAircraft aircraft) {
checkLanded(aircraft);
}

}

I would really appreciate some help with this from a script writer. Thankyou.

Do you need a complete script or just little hints what to do?

[dflion]

Thanks FG28_Kodiak,
As I am in the steep learning curve in how to do 'scripting', I would like a complete script. I appreciate your help and it will help me to learn more about scripting in my next campaigns.

If you need to see the complete campaign, contact me privately through the forum.

I have just finished scripting my 'Battle of France' campaign and it seems to be working very well. The only thing that doesn't work is that if you are successful in a mission, then have to leave the game (for some reason), when you come back to the (game) campaign it doesn't start where you left it????

My KG1.111_Ju88 campaign is still not working properly? Need some help 'boys and girls'?

At the moment i about to finish a checkAirfield Routine:

                PlayerEndAirport = getNearestAirfield(EndPoint);

        else GamePlay.gpLogServer(null, "No Waypoints for this Airgroup {0}", new object[] { GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place().Group().Name() });
    }
}

Should work but need some tests, above checks if the players StartAirport is the same he landed. Then you should get the message "Mission Successfull"

This

AiWayPoint[] Wp = GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place().Group().GetWay();

        int i = Wp.Length;

        if (i > 0)
        {
            AiWayPoint EndPoint = Wp[i - 1];

            if (PlayerEndAirport == null)
                PlayerEndAirport = getNearestAirfield(EndPoint);
        }
        else GamePlay.gpLogServer(null, "No Waypoints for this Airgroup {0}", new object[] { GamePlay.gpPlayer().Place().Group().Name() });

Looks for the nearest Airfield at last Player Waypoint. But i ve not integrated it in the victory conditions at time.

These two script routines look very promising Kodiak. I will wait until you test them further. Thankyou again.
