is it possible to set a bandit trigger and give them a walkabout radius limit? i want to create a few bandit squads and plop em in a few of my fortifications i've created.

also, would be cool if a bandit squad runs into a base, and they could make it there own (like a trigger could be set to GUARD or something that allow them to..). idk if it is possible, but its just a few of the ideas i want to try out.

btw im not so good with scripting, could someone gimme a hand if scripting is involved in my ideas :)?

I presume you already know how to open the mission file. Look for the doSomething_bandits.sqf file in "scripts\mission\fnc". You'll want to edit this line :

[_eastGrp, _pos, 250] call fnc_taskPatrol;

250 is the distance in meters between each waypoint created by the taskPatrol function : it generates 3 up to 5 waypoints. Just change that number accordingly ;)
As for the bandits capturing a base - you would first need to prevent Zeds from spawning there; wich is beyond my knowledge right now :(

EDIT : don't forget to create a new doSomething_yourbandits.sqf file if you don't wanna change all the bandits.

so can i have more than one script on this??

like have one line say "[_eastGrp, _pos, 250] call fnc_taskPatrol;"
and another say "[_eastGrp, _pos, 50] call fnc_taskPatrol;"

i don't really know how to do this, so pretty much from my understanding I copy from the top-down of "doSomething_bandits" script and paste it underneath? (duplicating and changing the distance in meters).

and to get it to work, im assuming I go to Main menu, click Singleplayer, click editor and from there i do as follows...

- Slap down one of those triggers on a fortification i've built for em
- Paste '(vehicle player) in thislist;' in "Condition" inside the trigger i presume from the other triggers.
- Plop in the "[_eastGrp, _pos, 50] call fnc_taskPatrol;" under "On Act".

or to cut it down straight : do i pretty much just have the same as the other bandit triggers and just have "[_eastGrp, _pos, 250] call fnc_taskPatrol;" ~~~~~~ instead of ~~~~~~ "_nul = call fnc_doSomething_bandits;"?

not so sure if im doing it the right way, maybe im completely doing it wrong lol.
