Ok, I have an SP map that has allies manning MG42s. The only problem is I spent all day trying to get them to shoot and they wouldn't. NOW I have them shooting, but they shoot at me. Below is my script. I know what the problem is, but don't know how to fix it. I have the mg42 gunner aiming and shooting at $player...which is me. Is there a universal $name for axis ai?? I have axis rushing a hill and allies shooting them from a few mg42s. I need them to shoot the axis, not me (LOL). Anyone know how to fix this? Here's what I have so far:


exec global/loadout.scr maps/m1l1_aiPractice.scr
exec global/ai.scr
exec global/enable_ai.scr
exec global/turret.scr
exec global/auto.scr
exec global/weather.scr
exec global/ambient.scr m5l1b

level waitTill prespawn


level waitTill spawn

$mg42a thread global/mg42_active.scr::mg42 6000
$mg42b thread global/mg42b_active.scr::mg42b 6000
$mg42c thread global/mg42c_active.scr::mg42c 6000
thread global/ai.scr::spawngroup #1 #1

$player item weapons/colt45.tik
$player item weapons/m1_garand.tik
$player item weapons/mp40.tik
$mg42a_gunner holster
$mg42a_gunner exec global/disable_ai.scr


thread mg_targeting $mg42a

end



mg_targeting local.machinegun:

waitframe
local.loopwaittime = 0.5 // prevents loop

while (!($mg42a_gunner cansee $player)) // can't see player
{
wait 1
}
while ((isalive $mg42a_gunner) && ($mg42a_gunner cansee $player)
{
local.machinegun burstFireSettings 0.25 0.5 1 .25
local.machinegun maxYawOffset 55
local.machinegun bulletdamage 20
local.machinegun setaimtarget $player
local.machinegun startfiring
wait local.loopwaittime
}

end

That line above isn't in the script, it's just so you know that's the end. Anyway, I've only been messing with scripting for a few days now so I'm sure some stuff I have doesn't belong and some stuff I have does. I'm testing for mg42a....the others I have not adjusted yet. That's why there isn't a thread for them. Anyway, any help is highly appreciated! Thanks.
