I've got this set up where I have an MTT setup as a command post. It gets blown up, a new one spawns (CreateEntity) at a path node or some other Entity Matrix and is animated into place, subsequently it is set to team 2 (CIS).
Unfortunately I can't get the team to set. Originally the system worked with about 3 pre-placed MTTS but object spaces are at a premium on this map.
Here is (I believe - I'm rusty) the relevant segment of code, the lua file is attached.

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]CreateTimer("MTTReEnterTimer")

MTTtur1StartMatrix = GetEntityMatrix("mtttur1")

OnObjectKillName(

function()

print("MTT CRASH? 1")

if landerdestroyed ~= 1 then

print("MTT CRASH? 2")

--DeleteEntity("mtttur1")

KillObject("mtttur1")

print("MTT CRASH? 3")

MapRemoveEntityMarker("mtttur1", 1)

MapRemoveEntityMarker("mtttur1", 2)

print("MTT CRASH? 4")

PauseAnimation("MTTEnter")

RewindAnimation("MTTEnter")

CreateEntity("MttTur Cp", MTTtur1StartMatrix, "mtttur1")

--			UpdatePostMapMarker("mtttur1")

--			UpdateState()

PlayAnimation("MTTEnter")

StopTimer("MTTReEnterTimer")

SetTimerValue("MTTReEnterTimer", 18)

StartTimer("MTTReEnterTimer")

ShowMessageText("level.ace.campaigncw.objectives.ArcRescue.onedown", REP)

end

end,

"mtttur1"

)

OnTimerElapse(

function(timer)

cp11 = CommandPost:New{name = "mtttur1"}

SetObjectTeam("mtttur1", 2)

AddAIGoal( 1, "Destroy", 20, "mtttur1")

end,

"MTTReEnterTimer"

)

OnObjectKillName(

function()

ShowMessageText("level.ace.campaigncw.objectives.ArcRescue.onedown", REP)

mtt1destroyed = 1

end,"mtttur"

)

OnTimerElapse(

function(timer)

SetProperty("ace_bldg_bombarder4", "AutoFire", 1)

CreateTimer("BombardDuration")

SetTimerValue("BombardDuration", 15)

StartTimer("BombardDuration")

end,

"TimeTillVenatorBombard"

)

OnTimerElapse(

function(timer)

SetProperty("ace_bldg_bombarder4", "AutoFire", 0)

end,

"BombardDuration"

)

OnObjectKillName(

function()

Area2Victory()

landerdestroyed = 1

end,

"CIS_Lander"

)

Area2Victory = function()

ShowMessageText("level.ace.campaigncw.objectives.ArcRescue.winthisround", REP)

ShowMessageText("level.ace.campaigncw.cisobjectives.ArcPlateau.AreaLost", CIS)

Area3Brief()

PlayAnimation("MTT_Idle")

RespawnObject("cp6cam")

RespawnObject("cp7cam")

RespawnObject("cp4cam")

conquest:AddCommandPost(cp3)

conquest:AddCommandPost(cp5)

conquest:AddCommandPost(cp6)

if BFXPresent == 1 then             --I suppose its safe to have these back, now.

AddUnitClass (2, "cis_inf_commander", 1,4)

AddUnitClass (1, "rep_inf_ep3_commander", 1,4)

end

--Conquer the Caves!

ClearAIGoals(1)

ClearAIGoals(2)

AddAIGoal( 1, "Conquest", 1 );

AddAIGoal( 2, "Conquest",1);

KillObject("cp2cam")

end[/code]

P.S.
mighty Jawa Web Guru, add .lua to allowed extensions for max funtimes.
Now its talking about an attachment quota...xfire me for my LUA....

P.P.S.
Thanks

Put a print statement inside the timer handler to make sure the set team code is running. Why do you have the cp11 line?
