1st: how to make it so that the pelican can come down and drop some allies

2nd: the one highlighted in red has return this error in compile and i dont know how to fix it nor find the cause

"i expected a boolean, but this function returns a void.: (ai_kill tan_attack (players)) 0)"

or "i expected a boolean, but this function returns a void.: (ai_kill tan_defend))"

i forgot what there refering to as bolean any more

Your using booleans as commands. The ai_kill command is a true of false for killing all AI in a map.

I don't understand what you're trying to do with the "sleep_until" command? Are you testing for whether the encounter "tan_attack" is dead? If so, ai_kill is wrong. Ai_kill is a function that kills a specified encounter, not tests for its death. Also, I have no idea what (players) is there for.

(sleep_until (<= (ai_living_count tan_attack) 0) 1)

That would work for testing that tan_attack is dead.

But, if you had a different purpose for "sleep_until", then I could help with that as well.

thanks and how to make the script so that the pelican can come down and drop down for allies to come out of it like in halo b30 map

It should just do it if you ripped the map correctly, becuase the recoreded animations are in place.

It's a recored animation, Open b30 and explore it a bit. Then just make your own animation or just steal an animation from any of the maps.

There's no way to make recorded animations, so his only option is to use one of the animations from the campaign scenarios.
