A couple of scripting questions

I've just started to take on scripting, but I've run into a few problems. So I have a couple questions about scripting:
1. Is there a way to increase reinforcement count (on either team) if a player joins a multiplayer game?
2. Is SetProperty the function that can edit a unit?
If anyone can answer these, thanks!

How do you want to change the unit?
Points to unlock goes here, and looks like this,
Code: Select all
function ScriptPostLoad()
SetClassProperty("rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer", "PointsToUnlock", 2)
hope that helps.

1) You could if you could find a script that gets the player joining... Then all would be easy...
There are a few scripts referring to multiplayer/online in the lua functions in the FAQ (thank you Tean for that couple hundred ripped scripts...
), but I can't figure them out. Anyone?

1) Sort of. Theres no direct way to determine when a player joins the server, so you would have to setup a repeating timer to check sizes of the teams (can be done multiple ways...). When a team's size increases, increase its reinforcement count: AddReinforcementCount(REP, 10)
