    Spawn a ground unit

    is there a way to connect the spawn of a ground unit to a trigger?
    because by default it is only possible to spawn planes.

    Many thanks

    I was experimenting this weekend with a mission and i got ground units to spawn even tho it just says aspawn. Just select a ground object (chief) and see how it goes. It seemed to work for me - i was able to spawn in tanks using time trigger with a delay of 2 minutes

    I confirm, it works... Thank you Ezzie!

    But now I have another problem...
    Instead of spawn tanks group the trigger spawn two of them... The result is that the units crash themself.. :/

    If you are using a PassThrough trigger, need cancel the trigger after action, because the trigger is activated when a plane (or vehicle) enter in the trigger circle and when leave the circle.

    BTW - If use a train for activated the trigger and don't cancel, will have multiple spawns, because each wagon counts.

    Airone1989,

    If you look in the script of missions 6 and 7 of my campaign so far (that you're testing for me) it has ground units spawning from a trigger there. Many groups from one trigger.
    I am Yo-Yo not YoYo (that's someone else)

    Nope, I'm using a TGroundDestroyed


    Thanks Yo-Yo, I will save a lot of time with the multy spawn...
