I recently decided to add campaign mode to my map and I have made good progress, I made the campaign script work (first objective only) and ambush worked in a test map, but now my ambush doesn't want to work in my map.

here is my lua: And here are the most suspicious messages on my BFront2.log Note: My Ambushregion is called forestambush and it's properties are ambushregion, my Ambushpath is called forestpath, goto region is called goto and properties are goto. More information if I rename FAM (the forest ambush team) the cps disappear ingame.

Anyone have any clue why the ambush isn't working?

Yeah, your region has a different name and properties. The properties of "forestambush" should be "forestambush." Just as a matter of course, always set the properties of a region the same as the name (unless it's a ZE-defined region, like a rainshadow region or something). Also, you shouldn't be setting your team to something that's not defined. Set up local teams like this: ...and save yourself a lot of consternation.

Thanks it works now.

Its ok to use custom keys in the setup team section. It won't hurt anything. If you want it to use the standard localization strings, put your team key as local (or was it locals or both work...)

I'll see what I can do with that I'm still testing everything out and the ambush team localization seems to be my only problem at the moment.

Edit:
I have non localizing ambush teams, here is my lua (there is no munge log at all).

Ummm, so is this solved or not?

Sorry for the confusion, I've localized the objectives and fixed the ambush but the ambushers (AI ambush units) are still [NULL].

HI bob, it's me again! Try to do it like...like...it's set up on hoth. (just look at the red marked text)
Like this:
SetupTeams{

all={
team = ALL,
units = 23,
reinforcements = -1,
soldier = {"all_inf_rifleman_snow"},
assault = {"all_inf_rocketeer_snow"},
-- engineer = {"all_inf_engineer_snow"},
sniper = {"all_inf_sniper_snow", 4},
--officer = {"all_inf_officer_snow"},
--special = {"all_inf_wookiee_snow"},

},

imp={
team = IMP,
units = 17,
reinforcements = 35,
soldier = {"imp_inf_rifleman_snow"},
assault = {"imp_inf_rocketeer_snow"},
engineer = {"imp_inf_engineer_snow"},
sniper = {"imp_inf_sniper_snow"},
officer = {"imp_inf_officer", 2, 4},
special = {"imp_inf_dark_trooper", 2, 4},
}
}

--Setting up Heros--

SetHeroClass(IMP, "imp_hero_darthvader")
--SetHeroClass(ALL, "all_hero_luke_jedi")

--Ambush Teams true

SetTeamName(rebels1, "all")
SetUnitCount(rebels1, 8)
AddUnitClass(rebels1, "all_inf_rifleman_snow", 2)
AddUnitClass(rebels1, "all_inf_rocketeer_snow", 2)
AddUnitClass(rebels1, "all_inf_engineer_snow", 2)
AddUnitClass(rebels1, "all_inf_sniper_snow", 2)
SetReinforcementCount(rebels1, -1)

SetTeamAsEnemy(rebels1, IMP)
SetTeamAsFriend(rebels1, ALL)
SetTeamAsFriend(ALL, rebels1)


Not:
SetTeamName(3, ALL)


Don't care about the "rebels1" thing. Just look att the difference: all, ALL

I don't know if this is going to work, but give it a try and good luck!

Thanks yodakid that was exactly the problem.
