animaal Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Hi, anybody know how to change the direction of travel for a ship e.g. in a trigger? Ships don't seem to have "Switch Waypoint" or "Goto Waypoint" commands. Can waypoints for ships be created or moved via lua scripts?

Swany Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Yes, I would love to know the answer to this as well! In order to have my ships go around like my fuelers do, I have to build a million way points. I really would like to see the "switch waypoint" added to boats B.

Zayets Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 You can't do this in a trigger with the ships. There are few tricks though you can do with scripting (e.g. MIST). For example. around the initial point you create a small zone and when the ship enters that particular zone, you destroy the group and then respawn it every time. I haven't tried it but I don't see why it shouldn't work. Another trick is to create again some small zones around your intended waypoints and then use mist.groupToPoint everytime the ship hits a particular zone. It is not very easy but definitely doable.
