So I gather that I can make a unit spawn in one of several locations by linking it to multiple markers. Now, what about making three units (or groups of units) spawn at three random locations from a list of five locations? Googled for this and can't find it. The workaround is to play with the probability of presence slider and just have troops in all five places but that introduces variability into the total number of units spawned. I think LaKroy investigated this for his recent artillery mission but mentioned on the playthrough that advanced scripting was required to achieve this result. Any suggestions or advice would be warmly received.

Something like this on group leader init, maybe? And put all members "In formation"?

Code: Select all

locations = [marker1, marker2,...];
location = locations select random (count locations);
this setPos getMarkerPos location;
