Green arrow for single player missions [solved]

Overmind · Rocket Infantry **Joined**: 05 May 2022

I've noticed that the animation that suppose to be the green arrow that points over mission objectives in the single player missions (like the power plants and gattlings in the 1st Allies YR mission) is broken. I'm not sure if why it's broken (I get a splash instead of the actual green arrow) and I want to fix it.

Where is this animation located ?

Animations use an index reference, and the default WW rules.ini has the list all messed up with gaps in the numbering.

Use AICLEAN to reorganize all the lists and it will be correct in FA2.

I was afraid of something like that.

Is 7.0 the latest version ?
It says tclsh is not a valid command.
The one I downloaded a few months back seems to be missing the main file.

You could just open that 1st Allies mission, find the trigger/action for the arrow & copy the index it uses...

Read the header within the .tcl --- everyone of them tells you where to get the runtimes you need.

I could not find it. The trigger (like for Gattlings) only says reveal waypoint. There's nothing else attached. Point at power also leads to nothing.

Allright, here's how I got my green arrow back:

- got the proper working anim list
- removed the comments, "=" and numbering
- got my chaotic current anim list
- removed the comments, "=" and numbering
- sorted out the lists to output non-duplicate unique elements (as in what's in my list and not the original one)
- added numbers and "=" to the unique elements (my actual mod elements) to start with 610 (after the last initial one)
- pasted the together with the proper initial working anims
