ok so i got the waypoint to work but after i press finish and start again the waypoint no longer works, is there a way to make it work everytime i press start and not only the first one?
@123stealthbomber thank you. whenever you can. I just started playing men of war and I've been using the editor to build maps. I've looked at a lot of gem editor videos and you do a great job by with these short videos.
Add one Waypoint cone whit is usually 0, then click on the cone and press and hold Ctrl, then press the 'C' keys to copy. And while you still have the Ctrl key pressed, release the 'C' key and press the 'V' key to paste another cone, which is 1. Doing this, you must see that a line is attached between the first cone (1) and the new cone (2). Place the new cone (2) to another point on the map. Then add a soldier, then script the soldier to use the Waypoint cone 0. Once done, click on START and see if the soldier goes to Waypoint 0, continues to Waypoint 2 and a few seconds it should return back to Waypoint cone 0. If you want to make the soldier spend half minute or more standing there for a while, you can do that by scripting the cone to repeat itself back and forth like a real sentry. Tag the soldier, then use the actor_to_waypoint command, give it a delay then hit Ok. When the soldier goes back to Waypoint cone 0, you script that cone to make the soldier go back to cone 2 after a set time in 'delay' has passed. If the soldier has spotted and enemy, he ignores the scripted command and uses its AI, runs for cover and gets ready to fight, even stalking the enemy until it gets shot.
I wonder.. what does the "clone" thing do? Does it like... clone the unit and then the cloned unit follows the same waypoint the original follows? Or does it just do nothing?
Question: When I use multiple units on one waypoint it seems only the first unit actually has to touch the next wp, which is awesome for infantry, but I want my tanks to go to every single wp. How do I get this to happen?
AngC12 Well if you set there movement to hold it and the ai_enable to false then it should work. It causes them to follow exact orders no matter what. You can activate these in the actor_state.
@@123stealthbomber I did the actor state thing, it fixed it but my infantry will not shoot at the enemy when they reach there destination, any way to fix? and yes they are on open fire mode
just been trying to make a defense for fun. what would happen if you linked two waypoints to the same waypoint? would they just split up or travel down one waypoint at random? I wanted to know so I could link both 5 and 6 to waypoint 4 etc.
Yes, they use their AI to choose which direction they want to go. These connected Waypoints are called interlaced or split Waypoints. Any entity that moves under command along a Waypoints uses their Artificial Intelligence to make decisions.
How do I get hordes of soldiers to move to a waypoint? I gave about 15 troops a tag and put a waypoint and used the triggers to get them to move but when I start they just stand in place.
Like ur page, big fan. Need help on different thing thou. I know how spon trucks but i don't no how to spon trucks with trailer attachments or cars on a train.
***** I think he meant that he made a waypoint that separates at some point down the line, but the AI just follows one specific waypoint, and does not split up like he intended.
Hey i'm just wondering how do i add units to my campaign mod i wanna add Is 3 jagdtigers and all that for my starting skirmish campaigns? can you help me plzz
Wild Viking I found a fix, on the left look for a section that says TAG. try it, click a unit then on the left scroll down a bit and look for "tag" then just type it in their m8
Tanks respond different to soldiers. While soldiers AI controls them to scatter behind covers. Tanks on the other hand, cannot scatter behind any cover, unless you have scripted to go behind building. They have their advanced AI and will either stop for a few seconds and fire at the enemy, or they will continue to move along a set waypoints and fire at the same time, but firing while moving only gives 80-90% accuracy, depending on how close to target they are.
Hey Stealthbomber I need your help with something. Is it possible to setup an ambush this way? I tried to link a convoy to a waypoint, all of this worked, however, as soon as the ''aggressors'' see the convoy they start shooting at them, sometimes the convoy itself sees the aggressors too and starts shooting first, stopping with following the waypoint immediately.
Yea. Just put the ambushers on no attack, then put a zone. In the conditions say if the convoy is near the zone then in the commands tell the ambushers to open fire. You can put a delay so they dont fire right away.
Well make sure they have tags and the actor to waypoint command is set up correctly. Also if you watch this video I explain how you use waypoints correctly.
Hey there! I have a problem: Scripting waypoints is easy, but once units get attacked on their way, they stop following the waypoints. How can I avoid that, so that they still react on attacks but also still follow the given direction. Like I want the AI to attack a zone, if they reach it, i loos. But off course I will attack them and try to stop them.
Hey dude, I clicked on something and now all my vehicles have these green lines going around them. Like the tanks have all these green outlines moving around the perimeter.
Like ur page, big fan. Need help on different thing thou. I know how spon trucks but i don't no how to spon trucks with trailer attachments or cars on a train.
Respect from the new generation of MOW map makers!

Are you still having issues with Waypoints? Need a better tutorial. Check my TH-cam tutorial, you'll be glad you did.
una pregunta como muevo las unidades mientras estoy en el editor y que mapa es y como hago para mostrar el tablero?
thanks this has helped me alot.Short and simple, i like it :)
@123stealthbomber thank you. whenever you can. I just started playing men of war and I've been using the editor to build maps. I've looked at a lot of gem editor videos and you do a great job by with these short videos.
I did it exactly Like in the Tutorial, but it ain't working
When I set up a convoy only the first vehicle goes through. Any thoughts on what’s wrong?
How do you loop that wps? So vehicles/infantry continue in a circle. Like a partrol!
link the last wp to the first
Ok ty

thank you this was very helpful but how do I remove the blue circles from dead bodies in the battlefield

Very cool

***** Thank you! It works way more like I wanted when I do that. I love attacking convoys as they try to reach their destination. So much fun!

one waypoint then they maybe join up idk but maybe if you set it so that multiple squads have diffrent waypoints that link up to
Yes, they use their AI to choose which direction they want to go. These connected Waypoints are called interlaced or split Waypoints. Any entity that moves under command along a Waypoints uses their Artificial Intelligence to make decisions.
So if I wanted to make my men run instead of walk I would need to make an actor_state? Do you have a tutorial for this?
I have this thing i think iT'sx a bug whenever my unit reaches the second point it teleports back to the start
good video I wanted to do a parade and now im abale to!
great job on the video...hey can you do the map basics again with audio this time?
How do I get hordes of soldiers to move to a waypoint? I gave about 15 troops a tag and put a waypoint and used the triggers to get them to move but when I start they just stand in place.
look on the actor to waypoint
Go to my Men of War - Tips and tricks. You'll learn all about Spawns and Waypoints. But, don't expect to find music.

Like ur page, big fan. Need help on different thing thou. I know how spon trucks but i don't no how to spon trucks with trailer attachments or cars on a train.
I got a problem, I can't access the troops after I team them player 1, thus I can't place them in the vehicle, got any answers?
help, im trying to make divisions in waypoints but they only follow a specific one.
Please be a little more specific. I really do not know what you are talking about.
***** I think he meant that he made a waypoint that separates at some point down the line, but the AI just follows one specific waypoint, and does not split up like he intended.
thanks dud now i can make my arena fun

+Smiley Face Also there was no yellow arrow.
How do I make infantry (dose not include gunners/drivers) get out and move to cover ?
there should be an actor_to_cover order
W 6?? that doesnt work
Im on MOWAS2
Same trouble for me
Wild Viking
I found a fix, on the left look for a section that says TAG. try it, click a unit then on the left scroll down a bit and look for "tag" then just type it in their m8
+Aleksei Krasnov Alesnarovich Thanks, makes things a little easier!
Wild Viking
sure, I don't know if there is a shortcut, I couldn't seem to find one.
+Wild Viking its easier to press ctrl+t
Hello, i know this video is old but i wanted to ask anyway. How do you make say, a tank to move and shoot while following a waypoint ?
Thanks !
Lautaro Silva there should be something that says you can change movements. For example assualt
Tanks respond different to soldiers. While soldiers AI controls them to scatter behind covers. Tanks on the other hand, cannot scatter behind any cover, unless you have scripted to go behind building.

***** Thank you very much. Im relatively new to the gem editor and its options. What commands and conditions do I need to look for?
Thanks in advance
***** how can I control both teams??
In waypoints how do you make infantry run

How to make loop wayipoints
Hey man I watched UR videos on endless waves but when I finish they never seem to follow.waypoint and also how do u get the yellow line
Well make sure they have tags and the actor to waypoint command is set up correctly. Also if you watch this video I explain how you use waypoints correctly.
Thanks for the help.
How does it work for men of war because i only have men of war oniginal and nothing worked
Thank you thank you very much
and this is why I love you stealthbomber(no homo)
Does this work for convoys?
Absolutely, tanks, vehicles, cannons, trains, planes, as long as there is a driver, or a pilot in them all.
how do u make them run
Double right click
+123stealthbomber i know but how do u make them run with waypoints
Joshua Meyburgh Add in a actor_state. Then set the tags in the selector. Then scroll down until you find speed. Set the speed to fast or assault.
Thank stealtbomber
I did it and it worked :D
um that line wont show up for me and i have men of war (the first men of war is what i have its just mow for short)
I have it too and the editor is the same as mowas2, you have to select your waypoint than click the little "add" button is the "waypoint" slot
