mist.groupToPoint
| Added with: Mist 2.0 | ||||||||
| Description | ||||||||
| This function will set the task of the specified group to go a the point defined by a zones location. 'group' can be either a group name or a group table. The destination point can be either a zoneTable structure or a zoneName. 'form' is the default formation name as defined by the scripting engine. (See mist.ground.buildWP or the Scripting Engine wiki for details). 'Heading' is the final heading the group will be oriented in once it reaches its destination. 'speed' is the speed in kilometers per hour that the group will travel at to reach its destination. 'ignoreRoads' controls whether the group will try to use roads to get to the point. | ||||||||
| Syntax | ||||||||
| nothing mist.groupToPoint(table/string group/groupName ,table/string zoneTable/zoneName , string form ,number heading ,number speed ,boolean ignoreRoads ) | ||||||||
| Valid Input Values: | ||||||||
| group = 'myGroup'
or group = Group.getByName('myGroup') table = 'myZone' table = zoneTable form = "Off Road" - moving off-road in Column formation "On Road" - moving on road in Column formation "Rank" - moving off road in Row formation "Cone" - moving in Wedge formation "Vee" - moving in Vee formation "Diamond" - moving in Diamond formation "EchelonL" - moving in Echelon Left formation "EchelonR" - moving in Echelon Right formation heading = -360 to 360 speed = any positive number. (Group limited by lowest max speed of vehicles in the group) ignoreRoads = boolean (any value) True if you don't want the group to use roads. Otherwise if the destination is further than 1.3* the radius of the destination zone the group will automatically seek out a road to go to the destination. | ||||||||
| Return value: | ||||||||
| nothing | ||||||||

| Notes: | ||||||||
A zoneTable structure is a Lua table in the form:
