trying to find that post where it shows the scar for adding all that artillery to maps at the start.. anyone know where it is?

[Khorney]

tbh, i dunno if i like the script, i'm not entirely sure what it is supposed to add, apart from a harder time for the defenders 9unless that is the point =P)

[Tymathee]

just look at St Come Du Mont and see if you can find it there i guess

found this in st come du mont in the .scar file.

[salan]

I was looking through there, trying to piece it together without the music .. getting there.

gotta blow up some of arnhem.

[EscforrealityTLS]

Nice one with Arhem by the way Salan, might I make a suggestion though. Delete some of the crap in it that is not needed, it tends to lag my lame ass computer.

Oh and the pink is so you!

[Tymathee]

well...

^^^ I think this should be without the music in it. although i think the coordinates will prolly be off for arnham. If that's the map with the bridge...can you make it so that you can pass under the bridge?

[salan]

I was thinking of erasing the bridge tbh, making it broken right at the base so you can get around the north end of it.

it limits the map to much being there.

[Tymathee]

definiately. i just played it a while ago and i spawned on that side of the map omg it was so annoying

[Kolath]

I got the that artillery script workin on 8p_lengfeld by copy pasting the SCAR and adding the requisite markers.  You add SCAR markers in the worldbuilder by clicking the little red flag icon.  Make sure you select the right colors and that you rename the markers to match what is in the script (or vice versa).

If anyone could explain how to add more shots of artillery to the script, I would really appreciate it.  As all the things I tried caused fatal scar errors.

[Unkn0wn]

I heard we have the wrong version of lengfeld in?

In addition, I'd like to use airplanes passing by on maps like Arras, if anyone has an idea on how this could be done.

[LeoPhone]

planes passing by while game is going on, GOGO WIBLE blow the plane and crash it in those emplacements 

to make it working, you just need to use recon runs and luft air arty strike that dont have an enemy

[Steinmarder]

This is a pretty simple script I wrote myself for artillery incoming every 240 seconds, landing around 4
different markers with a random offset to the position every shot lands.

Can be done way shorter if you take other functions and some variables, but this should be good for
you to figur out how its done.

Note that the artillery belongs to the players 1 and 2 here, so its not optimal but enough for artillery in
the beginning (replace AddInterval with AddOneShot in line 12).

If you dont know how your markers are called, you can check for that in the mapname_ID.scar file.
