Armed Assault Info Forums _ Troubleshooting _ units dont move when i have used as subordinate

Posted by: peskdos Aug 26 2010, 22:40

well ill try to explain myself the best way i can using an example edited mission:
i create a simple mission using high command and subordinate command module:one squad as commnader and the other one as subordinate
i load the mission and when i used the subordinate squad and go back to the commander squad i try to give waypoints to the subordinate but they dont move.
my question is :how can i get to make th subordinate squad move to the designated waypoint after i have used it?
thanks to every one

Did you bring up your "command menu"?
I forget what the default key is but to make the units move, get in, get out, etc...you bring up the command menu, select the units you want to issue orders to then click on the map and tell them where to go...
after you tell them where to go you can right click on the "waypoint" order for additional commands...."get in< get out" what have you.
hope this helps!


P.S. D@VE I just noticed I have a %20 warning for that one post that got misplaced sad.gif
I seriously didnt do that on purpose...please take my warning off I'm not here to cause trouble, just to get help and give help sad.gif

high command module synched to unit/group synched to sub-module then synched to command module.
Interesting...it should work :/

all that i ve done but thats isnt the problem.fter doing that during the game play you use the subordinate squad/unit and go back to the ommander unit and you try to give him a waypoint the subordinate wont follow that order.The subordinate unit just stay in the same place.

so the unit your talking about thats not moving is "playable"?
if so that might be it, dont know why but I have notice in game units that I have as playable, if I use them, then switch to another playable unit then the one I just switched from stops following any WP's.
If the unit isnt in command of the group and I command it back into formation then it will get going again.

Not sure why or if this is your prob, just tryin to help...
