Re-using events?
Hey there!
I've recently got into making scenarios for BfW, and I'm already trying some more complicated commands in it, however I'm currently stuck.
Basically, what I want to do is have a counter listing how many units of a given type are dead. So I figured a name=die event would suffice for this, however, it only triggers once.
Okay...
So now what I would like to do is try and find a way to re-use my death event, either by somehow allowing it to be triggered repeatedly, or by having it replace itself.
However I'm not sure how to do either of these, and I'd rather not have to create an event for each unit as it seems very wasteful.
Is there an easy way to do this that I've missed?
Thanks!

name=die
first_time_only=no
[filter]
type=...
side=... (if desired)
[/filter]
etc...
[/event]

Ack, it would be something simple wouldn't it? Heh, was driving me nuts.
Thanks scott! That's that one working perfectly now, 2 down, at least one more map to go (though much simpler objective fortunately
