Tablet Interface Tied to Static Object?

  1. 6 years ago

    Hey, so I'm making a mission that takes place before tablets would have been a thing. In this mission I basically want the player to have to return to base, or an outpost that has a specific Object, like a Radio, that they activate the Use command on to bring up the tablet to see Intel, Assign Tasks, etc. Is this possible to do?

    Sure. I can't remember who figured it out originally (sorry!) but I stole their idea and made a field HQ by calling the various scripts that open the C2ISTAR modules. Some of them are a bit wonky the first time you open them but reopening fixes it. I use this in ops quite a lot to simulate a Command Post where players have to go to receive orders for patrol tasks, log patrol reports and the Ops Staff can control combat support etc. Feel free to use, abuse and plagiarize this example mission:
