Title: Directives
Post by: Retsof on December 20, 2007, 08:49:30 pm

I am making a mission, and there is the classic, "whats is that, go check it out, its the fuzzy thing on your radar".  I cant get the directive to turn red when it jumps out and you haven't got close enough.  You are actually supposed to fail this, so it's kind of important.

Hmm, 'tis tricky with my lack of experience. Should be an interesting puzzle. Let's see....

DIR (Scan ship)
---when
---------and
---------------is-cargo-known-delay
---------------------0
---------------------Evil ship o' doom
---------------not
---------------------has-departed-delay
------------------------------0
------------------------------Evil ship o' doom

Try that and see what happens.

when
--<
----distance
------alpha 1
------(ship)
----(distance you must get past to succeed)
--do nothing

Will be incomplete unless you get to the succeed distance then will be true.  If ship warps before distance then it fails.

I already tried that one, the directive stays blue.
EDIT:  I just tried it agian, I don't know what it was, but it works now.  Mabey I was using ">" instead of "<".
