Disable intro per script?

Hey guys!

In the ZH worldbuilder there's a script condition called "Player has attempted the mission a number of times"...
[UNUSED/player/]

I wanted to use this for a mission:
If the player starts the mission again, he doesn't have to watch the (quite long) intro for a second time.

IF player PlyrUSA has attempted the mission Greater Than or Equal to 1 times
...
disable intro scripts etc...

But there was no difference at all. No matter if you press restart, quit and then play again or if you start the game new, you always have to watch the intro.

Did anyone use this script successfully?

it most likey only works if you fail the mission (die) then restart, if you exit you basically have closed the file and re opened it reseting the scripts. This is what i think is happening so I could be very wrong.

So you think that the script is activated only when it says "Mission failed" and you press restart? I'll have to try that...

It didn't work...

When you loose and press Play again, you are redirected to the skirmish menu. The only possibility left (thet I can think of) is that I have to select LOCAL player instead of the player himself...or maybe it only works in cmapaigns...?

i do not believe that it remembers it, since ur using a script that runs on the begining of the map, its reseting to 0 each time map is run.
