As mentioned above - you need to have the building in a group - but separate from the generator.

Then when the generator group (18) is destroyed - use that to turn off the lights in the second group (the radio building).

The way you have it written now you are turning off lights of a generator which doesn't have lights anyway.

If you just added the radio building to the generator group the event would never trigger because the building would need to be destroyed as well.

So you need 2 groups, one to trigger and one to turn off the lights then you should be OK.

Or alternately, just use the SSN of the generator to trigger the group for the radio building.

Don't get confused with group, and light group...looks like there is a difference...

The action says light group 0 off

I tried using building in group 10, and

Actions:

Turn Light Group 10 Off

but it didn't work..so I took a look at SPmap 08..Radio Aidid, and they used what I did in my test map..

Building not in a group..and..Turn Light Group 0 Off

So using

Turn Light Group 0 Off

turns off lights in all buildings that have them in the map? How do you differentiate?

:(

LMAO..well, we have to learn as well, we are just like everyone else...it's not as if we have access to Nova's secrets...

All our knowledge comes from patient testing.....but, so far, I seem to have no questions...
