3rd team changing neutrality.

Is it possible to have a 3rd team, and have them be neutral, unless they get hit by a shot, in which case, they change to your enemies?

If it is possible, how would it be done?

thanks

It's very possible to make a neutral 3rd team, but I don't know about the hostile on engagement.

When a unit on that team is damaged, set the team to be an enemy of the attacker. The scripting doc should have all the info in it you need in order to do that.

ok, thank you so much!

edit1:

wait, should it look something like this?

Code:
"onObjectDamage(DamageTeam3)"
"SetTeamAsEnemy(Team3,Team1)"

"onObjectRespawn(rep_inf_ep3_sniper)
"SetTeamAsNeutral(Team3, Team1)"

the last bit is for after the player is killed.

or am i missing something, or not doing it correctly?

What do you meant about the last bit? Does the 3rd team only have one player? If so, it is better to use OnCharacterDeath or OnCharacterSpawn (on death is better).

Your code structure is all wrong. The code will be more like (done from bad memory...):

Code: Select all

OnObjectDamage(function(object,attacker)
    --cancel if there was no attacker (maybe fell off a tower...)
    if attacker == nil then return end

    --cancel if the damaged object is not on the 3rd team
     if GetObjectTeam(object) ~= 3 then return end

    --3rd team is now an enemy of the attacker's team
    SetTeamAsEnemy(3,GetObjectTeam(attacker))
end)
