Linking to groups

[TheElf]

I have several good sized ground units that I would like to link to a Check zone for activation.  But it seem that I cannot select that group of vehicle and link it with one link to the check zone.  Does this mean I MUST link each and every vehicle to the check zone individually??  

 

If so, am I the only one who finds this extraordinarily inefficient?

Yes, you must link each vehicle. Groups are not designed to interact with MCUs; they just group together the MCUs and objects that do interact with other MCUs.

 

However, if you have your vehicles in formations, you just need to link the formation leaders to the check zone.

 

Cheers!

The elf, the solution is that :

 

Complex trigger ---- Activate ----- Vehicle leader if there are link to the leader.

 

Complex trigger ---- Activate ----- Vehicle 1, vehicle 02, vehicle 03,... if they act as single unit

 

Be carrefull, if you use spawn command, evne if all vehicle are link to a leader, they acted as single unit and not in group.

Ok thanks.  That is unfortunate that a group of say 20 vehicles can't be linked.  Think of all the time saved...
