Well I always wanted to make a map, but always stopped half way through cus I thought nobody would play it.

Now I am doing a single player map and I am gonna make my Dad play it!

The mission is:
Destroy the 3 Nod sensor arrays blocking the Ion Cannon's targeting scanners in the area. Then take out the main Nod base.

I am going to have a civilian train that goes down a track, and you can send characters into(it will stop at points for them to get in/out) it but not actually control the train.

Now here is where I need help!

How do I...
1) Make a train appear out of a tunnel then loop around the track? (the tunnel being part of the track's normal loop)

2) How do I make a new train appear out of the tunnel of the current one's is destroyed?

3) How do I make Dropship reinforcements at a way point, I remember the Dropship has to be part of the "team" or something?

Will probably add some more questions later as I am still working on the basics! :3

Thanks!

I'm not a serious or even good mapper since all I really do is edit maps a bit to suit my needs but I have a general understanding of mapping.

1) use the go to... function on the script to have it repeat actions
2) have a actual mapper help, I could make a big long paragraph on an untested theory of how to do it but I'm to tired to type it all out
3) load, move to waypoint, unload (keep transport, loose units), move to waypoint off screen

Teams are made of 3 parts:

- The Team, yeah this is the whole thing but it has some unique things about it so I count this as a part
- The Taskforce, what units are in what team
- The Script, wtf is the unit suppose to do

Taskforce includes units and transports except Droppods, those are courtesy of 'The Team' part, there is a checkbox saying droppod or something like that.
