Scripting Problem

DaFool · Defense Minister **Joined**: 07 Nov 2006

I'm making a map in which I'm trying to have a like thrid person shooter; you get a militia spawned in a "base" and then you and your allies go and try to kill your enemies militia. When you get a kill you get money which you can use to say, purchase a better unit. When one side has reached a certain amount of kills, they win. Basically I want to recreate a kind of renegade on a c&c3 map. The problem is, I can get units to spawn for the comp, but not for humans. How do I do this? I've been playing around with the scripts, and nothing seems to work. please help.

you cant make cnc3 into a 3rd person shooter. even if you changed the camera angle it would be too difficult to command units

remember those starcraft maps where you got a guy and you only controlled them? I want to recreate that. And maybe adjusting the camera angle slightly would help (too much and the screen does a hour glass thing). Anyways Kingbase, that link does not exist.

if you trying to make a missionm in which you command only one person thats no problem. But editing he camra may not be such a good idea (as i said before) but if you want to go into the script editor, look in one of the camera catagories (i forgot which ones as I am basing most of my knowledge from generals, lots of the commands are the EXACT SAME)look for camera settings and the command should be something like "set final camera pit to ** in ** seconds, set final zoom to ** in ** seconds".
And if you want to make the camera follow the guy for the whole game then find the command catagoy "follow" (or move) and use the command "have camera unit **, teather camera TRUE"
