this is a somewhat complicated question to ask:
Do and statements exit when the first false is found, or do all statements get processed, i.e:
bool = (call myFunc) and (call myFunc2);
If myFunc returns false, does myFunc2 get called?
#arma3_scripting
fair lava
im writing a sanity check into my code, and want to avoid nested if statements, but the second function i want to call would cause an error if the first function returns false
fair lava
exit is the wrong word
still forum
the answer is still no
unless you do what i said
wiki page of if/&& should mention that
fair lava
code as right arg?
winter rose
yes
fair lava
what does that mean
winter rose
@fair lava
if (alive player && { damage player < 0.5 }) then { ... };
i might just have been awake for too long
still forum
bool = (call myFunc) and {call myFunc2};
fair lava
oh
still forum
or
fair lava
thats not too bad i'll change it to that, and i did not see anything like that on the wiki though i didn't find much
still forum
bool = (call myFunc) and myFunc2; if you're crazy
fair lava
i didn't dare go this deep into sqf
im still at the "look at the wiki page for the if statement" stage of sqf learning

can i do !{}

ah
if _hel && {!([_helmet, (_varHelmetArray select 1), true] call BIS_fnc_inString)} then
using parenthesise like bubble wrap and call is fragile ^.^

oh really?

not sure if && is higher than if

ah the whole statement
if (_hel && {!([_helmet, (_varHelmetArray select 1), true] call BIS_fnc_inString)}) then {

question regarding radioChannelAdd: is it local to the client or does it have to occur on the server? Wiki doesn't say which is required
my instinct is that it has to occur on server, but I could be wrong
worn forge
Your guide is found in the icons at the top of the wiki page
commands are global, and it must be called on server to work properly in multiplayer
excuse me, that's radioChannelCreate
radioChannelAdd, as you point out, is not indicated
That said I can tell you that it's global, ie., client can use radioChannelAdd and get into the custom channel, provided they provide the right channel number
tame lion
yeah that is what was confusing me, because on the clients, the custom channel could be 6-15 whle radioChannelCreate returns a much lower number. This is why I wasn't sure how I should go about adding players to it; if i needed to remoteExec to the server or have the clients handle the command themselves

coral owl
Hi everyone, I am trying to get where an infantry unit was hit, and I am using this:
private _bodyParts = ["head", "body", "arms", "legs", "pelvis", "spine1", "spine2", "spine3", "neck"];
private _dmgParts = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0];
{
_dmgParts set [(_bodyParts find _x), _unit getHit _x];
} forEach _bodyParts;
private _bodyPart = _bodyParts select (_dmgParts findIf { _x >= 0.9 });
I am not sure this is the best, but it works... however sometimes I do get an
error zero divisor
Which I can't for the life of me understand why..
I was thinking maybe some of those body parts do not exist on a CAManbase type of unit? Meaning infantry stuff?
surreal peak
since getHit returns nothing if the selector is wrong, it may be that the assigning is going astray due to trying to asign a null value from an array into _bodypart
not sure if I explained that well...
@coral owl where did u get the _bodyParts strings from?
coral owl
@surreal peak I think I got it, that would make sense.. I just got it .. mh from somewhere in the official forums lol maybe someone trying to do something with damage location
I was thinking worst-case I will reduce it to the first four, which work perfectly.
surreal peak
is there any other code being executed
can u post the entire script? in a pastebin or something
can only guess without context
coral owl
It's basically that, at the moment it just reports
systemChat format ["you have been hit to the %1", _bodyPart];
surreal peak
["face_hub","neck","head","pelvis","spine1","spine2","spine3","body","arms","hands","legs","body"];
maybe try these for the array
coral owl
private _bodyParts = ["head", "body", "arms", "legs", "pelvis", "spine1", "spine2", "spine3", "neck"];
private _dmgParts = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0];
private _bodyPart = 'TORSO';
{
_dmgParts set [(_bodyParts find _x), _unit getHit _x];
} forEach _bodyParts;
_bodyPart = _bodyParts select (_dmgParts findIf { _x >= 0.9 });
switch (_bodyPart) do {
case "head" : { _bodyPart = "HEAD" };
case "body" : { _bodyPart = "TORSO" };
case "arms" : { _bodyPart = "ARM" };
case "legs" : { _bodyPart = "LEG" };
case "pelvis" : { _bodyPart = "PELVIS" };
case "spine1" : { _bodyPart = "SPINE" };
case "spine2" : { _bodyPart = "SPINE" };
case "spine3" : { _bodyPart = "SPINE" };
case "neck" : { _bodyPart = "NECK" };
};
_messageDOWN2PARTA = 'YOU WERE HIT ON THE: ';
_messageDOWN2PARTB = _bodyPart;
```that was just the old version when I discovered toUpper lol
but I am keeping the last switch as it's convenient..
surreal peak
also would probably be worth to change private _bodyPart = 'TORSO'; to private _bodyPart = '';
coral owl
right right, true
As you can see I very basically check which area registers a damage over 0.9 and report that, nothing fancy
I put them in a sort of order, from most sensitive parts to others.. and it kinda works in case more than one location has 0.9 it reports the main one first (e.g. head)
winter rose
but some damages are set to "", which is general damage
coral owl
You are right that //["face_hub","neck","head","pelvis","spine1","spine2","spine3","body","arms","hands","legs","body"], seems good
so that could be why I get a zero divider.. as in "" >= 0.9 = BOOOM!
winter rose
a "default" case in the switch
coral owl
Thanks @winter rose and @surreal peak this is great just enlightening
winter rose
anytime
coral owl
it's kinda fun and I did not want to limit myself to head torso legs and arms which work fine
surreal peak
np, I like helping people cause it improves my skills as well π
coral owl
It was cool to see "NECK" yeaaaaaaaaah I've been shot in the neck, look mom!
surreal peak
if you ever want to do something with it, I could recommend doing things like disabling nightvision goggles when headshot
coral owl
@winter rose I think the default case is definitely useful but the error happens in the line just before the final switch?
surreal peak
or GPS when shot in arm
coral owl
ah cool!
worn forge
drop weapon when shot in the arm? fall down when shot in the leg?
winter rose
_dmgParts set [(_bodyParts find _x), _unit getHit _x];
if find returns -1, in setβ¦
surreal peak
many things for torture immsersino
coral owl
OR, I could completely revamp this using getAllHitPointsDamage
because that's what it returns..
getAllHitPointsDamage player;
//[
//["hitface","hitneck","hithead","hitpelvis","hitabdomen","hitdiaphragm","hitchest","hitbody","hitarms","hithands","hitlegs","incapacitated"],
//["face_hub","neck","head","pelvis","spine1","spine2","spine3","body","arms","hands","legs","body"],
//[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
//]```so basically I can scan the third array, find the first 0.9 or the highest number in the array... keep that array position number but move it to the second array and bam, I get the location
surreal peak
sounds good!
coral owl
I just gotta find out how to return the index of the highest value in an array lol
winter rose
there is a function for that
surreal peak
loop through array and just do comparisons between them
ooooooor
find the functino lou is talking about
winter rose
sort sorts the data, you could do something with it
surreal peak
winter rose
yup; but with selectMax you only get the value, not what it is linked to?
coral owl
once I selectMax and get the value, I find it?
winter rose
with sort you could do an array like [[0.5, "spine"], [0.2, "head"], ...]
coral owl
use the find to return the index
winter rose
I think selectMax + find
coral owl
I think might just
- get the highest number
- find it again in the same array
- get its index
- use that index on the previous array and get the location name
...
surreal peak
should work
coral owl
Just because it does not matter to me if there is another value that is similar to the max found..
otherwise Lou's is spot on and more precise
bright flume
now question is what form of sorting alg does max use π
coral owl
exactly, but if it misses one and gets another, I don't care as long as it feels good that you've been shot somewhere lol
With Lou's method you can basically go wherever you want with that data
winter rose
hahaha
surreal peak
and you if wana try your luck: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogosort
coral owl
ahaha that's awesome
Anyway could be something like:
private _bodyParts = (getAllHitPointsDamage _unit) select 1;
private _dmgParts = (getAllHitPointsDamage _unit) select 2;
private _mostDamaged = selectMax _dmgParts;
private _mostDamagedPart = _dmgParts find _mostDamaged;
private _bodypart = _bodyparts select _mostDamagedPart;
switch (_bodyPart) do {
case default : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "TORSO" };
case "face_hub" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "HEAD" };
case "head" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "HEAD" };
case "body" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "TORSO" };
case "arms" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "ARM" };
case "legs" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "LEG" };
case "pelvis" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "PELVIS" };
case "spine1" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "spine2" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "spine3" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "neck" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "NECK" };
};
// reminder: for an infantry unit these are the hit zones that could get returned:
//["face_hub","neck","head","pelvis","spine1","spine2","spine3","body","arms","hands","legs","body"],
...```
rudimentary ofcI could nest it as hell and do it in one line eheheh or TRY TO
private _bodypart = ((getAllHitPointsDamage _unit) select 1) select ((getAllHitPointsDamage _unit) select 2) find (selectMax ((getAllHitPointsDamage _unit) select 2));
switch (_bodyPart) do {
case default : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "TORSO" };
case "face_hub" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "HEAD" };
case "head" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "HEAD" };
case "body" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "TORSO" };
case "arms" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "ARM" };
case "legs" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "LEG" };
case "pelvis" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "PELVIS" };
case "spine1" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "spine2" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "spine3" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "SPINE" };
case "neck" : { _messageDOWN2PARTB = "NECK" };
};
sometimes I think anyone getting this code in the future might hate me and therefore avoid doing this. Especially since I easily forget what this could do or mean
winter rose
replace your switch with this π
_messageDOWN2PARTB = [toUpperANSI _bodyPart, "TORSO"] select (_bodyPart == "");
well, it keeps the number in "spine" though

if I put a sleep in a forEach, does that create a delay between instances of the forEach, or are they all run simultaneously?

believe its sequential/ordered execution so a sleep will make the script pause (x) amount of time... at that point.

Hi, I'm searching for some ingame texture selector script.
Does anyone here has a script like this?
Thanks!
cosmic lichen
Selector script? What do you mean?
silk sparrow
Well, i've thought at something like a NPC or a crate with an addaction on it which allows player to change it's vehicle texture.
silk sparrow
I've got some very basic knowledges in sqf, do you think it would be easy to develop?
Maybe not easy
But at least not too complicated ^^
cosmic lichen
Should be possible.
Vehicle textures are stored inside the vehicle's config IIRC
So you need to retrieve all texture for the vehicle and add actions to the vehicle accordingly
silk sparrow
I've got personal textures in the pbo mission file, so I think the thing to do is to make a script that recognize the vehicle (to not put a huron skin onto a strider e.g) and to shows one addaction per texture.
Well, i'll work on it and stay you tuned
Thank you!

silk sparrow
Yup @alpine ledge ! Thanks!
First i'm trying to get the vehicle classname.
I've put a prop in editor called "selector"
And i've written this code (which of course, does not work)
private _myArray = [];
private _classname = "";
_myArray = nearestObjects [selector, ["Car", "Tank", "Air"], 10];
_classname = _myArray select 0;
hint _classname;
I execute it from the debbug menu
I haven't yet understand how typeOf work.
worn forge
nearestObjects returns class names, it returns objects.
silk sparrow
Okay, so I can't use it in that way
worn forge
if you do
_object = _myArray select 0;
hint str (typeOf _object);
that'll give you the class name of the nearest object.
silk sparrow
So I only keep the first line and add the code you juste give me after it?
cosmic lichen
private _myArray = [];
private _classname = "";
_myArray = nearestObjects [selector, ["Car", "Tank", "Air"], 10];
if (_myArray isEqualTo []) exitWith {hint "No vehicle found!"};
_object = _myArray select 0;
hint str (typeOf _object);```@worn forge @cosmic lichen you guys are genius
silk sparrow
Now I've think about a switch/do to show the addactions
My code does not return any error but the game hint "Error1" (the default section of the switch/do)
private _myArray = [];
_myArray = nearestObjects [selector, ["Car", "Tank", "Air"], 10];
if (_myArray isEqualTo []) exitWith {hint "No vehicle found!"};
_object = _myArray select 0;
_veh = str (typeOf _object);
//hint str (typeOf _object);
switch (_veh) do
{
case "C_Kart_01_F":
{
hint "it's a kart"
};
case "C_Van_01_transport_F":
{
hint "It's a truck"
};
default
{
hint "Error1"
};
};
I'm just a little bit confused about what put in the switch
Is it the _object
still forum
str (typeOf
you are turning a string into a string
why
Ah you copied that from R3vo, bad R3vo
remove the str
still forum
Your _veh contains ""C_Kart_01_F"" instead of C_Kart_01_F which is why the case never hits
still forum
no
still forum
Here, let me copy-paste what I just told you
str (typeOf
you are turning a string into a string
remove the str
silk sparrow
Yup it's removed
private _myArray = [];
_myArray = nearestObjects [selector, ["Car", "Tank", "Air"], 10];
if (_myArray isEqualTo []) exitWith {hint "No vehicle found!"};
_object = _myArray select 0;
//hint str (typeOf _object);
switch (_object) do
{
case "C_Kart_01_F":
{
hint "it's a kart"
};
case "C_Van_01_transport_F":
{
hint "It's a truck"
};
default
{
hint "Error1"

you cannot compare an object to a string

I am trying to set the position of a unoccupied turret, I can use _val = cursorObject animationSourcePhase "mainTurret"; hint str _val; to get the value but using cursorObject animateSource ["mainTurret",deg(_valu)]; is not working. I've searched and searched and don't know if theirs anyway to do this?
worn forge
Yeah I don't think animateSource works that way, I think it's defined states
cosmic lichen
Also, there is a typo in your code. You get _val but use _valu for setting
worn forge
phase: Number - wanted animation phase
When you say "set the position" do you mean set the location / direction? Because you would want to use setPos and setDir for this
cosmic lichen
I just read that with animationSourcePhase and deg one can set the relative direction of the turret to the vehicle. So that should work.
shut kraken
I mean the rotation, basically it's adjusting the rotation like this
_valu = _val + 0.01;
if (_valu >= 2.61799) then {_valu = 2.61799};
vehicle player animateSource ["mainTurret",deg(_valu)];```_valu can range from 2.61799 to -2.44341
worn forge
So you want to line up the vehicle direction with the direction of the main turret?
shut kraken
I'm trying to write a script to control the main turret from the drivers seat
using EV's that are added when your inside a certain type of vehicle

Do you need a script to control the turret from the driver's seat? You should now be able to directly control a driver AI from the gunner's position (maybe not for UGVs). Might have better luck by dynamically spawning drivers if solo control is your goal
winter rose
in OFP (β¦yeah) there were "hidden" classes of "one-man tanks" (M1A1auto" iirc) where you would drive with the keyboard and aim with the mouse, do it all by yourself
cosmic lichen
@hallow mortar Is right
hallow mortar
That would be neat to have, or at least to see if the config can be replicated in A3. The new direct driver control lets you do basically the same thing, though
cosmic lichen
add an AI as driver and boom, one man tank

yup (but "RIGHT/LEFT/FORWARD/STOP/LEFT/STOP/LEFT(β¦)")

Only with overlapping order and driving keybinds

thank you very much, you saved my day hahha
If i want it to display a message, i just have to put a hint at the end?
A private message*

depends on where u want. a hint is easy one

A private message, only for the player trying to enter

but it may not work if ur mission is multiplayer

Or maybe a message on the vehicle chat

"You are not a pilot!" remoteExec ["hint", _this select 2];
Put it after moveOut line, test it just in case.
is your mission multiplayer or not?

Yes
Is multiplayer
The script works perfect, also for artillery guns lol, thank you π

Hi folks, does anyone have a bright & simple idea for how I can detect a keypress that's assigned to any/all TFAR radio button activation?
hallow mortar
CBA may have a better eventHandler to deal with this, I don't know.
You'll need to know the inputAction names of the TFAR radio button controls.
Construct an onKeyDown UI event handler. Use an if statement, the event handler's parameters, and actionKeys to determine if the key that was pressed matches one of the TFAR actions.
An example I haven't tested but should get you closer:
// create an event handler in Display 46 (main display)
_nul = findDisplay 46 displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", "
// create local variables for the results of the event handler
params ["_display","_key","_shift","_ctrl","_alt"];
// store the key codes for the TFAR actions in local variables
_TFARkey1 = actionKeys "TFARAction1";
_TFARkey2 = actionKeys "TFARAction1";
// check whether the key pressed matches the TFAR action key
if (_key in _TFARkey1) then {
hint "you pressed TFAR key 1";
};
if (_key in _TFARkey2) then {
hint "you pressed TFAR key 2";
};
"];
Hi Nikko, thanks for this. I'm using that exact strategy right now, and I think what I'm looking for are the inputAction names, if any π You have just reminded me that I think it's possible to hint out the inputAction as it's pressed, so I could get it that way.
hallow mortar
I'm sure you can find a point of contact with the TFAR devs (or another modder who actually uses TFAR) who can tell you what they are

I want to play a custom Arma map. But the teamate AI take a massive hit on fps, so all i want to do is disable teammate AI, you can do it when you host a server but I don't know how to do it for single player scenarios

aaanyway.
In SP you don't have access to any settings (unless you use singleplayer cheat), so you "have to" play the way the mission maker designed it. If it is a mission you can edit in Eden, you can simply delete said AIs.
thorn shale
ok thanks
bright flume
if you have editor/script access maybe just as simple as an addaction on yourself to disable the AI on any squad you controlling? not sure the implications/side effects of that though. only idea I could come up with other then as a player force them to just go sit somewhere
if you got zeus you can just tp them into a 'safe box' way out in nowhere. or maybe addaction that would do that effect?
worn forge
Thanks for the direction towards TFAR variables and event handlers - I've been all over that page. My problem is that those variables are useful when the TFAR activity has been engaged, but I'm trying to detect the key event that triggers it. I've created a custom UAV interface through a camera, and using a Keydown displayeventhandler works only if you know what you're detecting for. My solution has been to allow everything and then add use cases for specific key presses (in my switch, I have a default condition now that produces false, and allows the TFAR actions to work)
still forum
can you explain what you want to do? Why you want this key blocking
worn forge
When you create a camera with camCreate and push the player view into with switchCamera, user input is essentially disabled unless you put a displayEventHandler to capture input events. My workaround has been to put a default { false } case
still forum
with switchCamera the input is disabled, but just adding a displayEH re-enables it? Or are you handling the keybinds, inside your display handler specifically, per-keybind?
worn forge
I'm not sure I understand your second question, but yes, putting the player view into a new camera disables input. Creating a "KeyDown" display event handler allows them, and in that event handler I use a switch to process the keypresses to provide different effects, and a "mouseMoving" handler (I think, probably not the right name, not looking at it right now) to allow the view direction to move.
still forum
I would recommend you instead let CBA handle the keys.
By adding a KeyDown/KeyUp handler, and piping it into CBA
https://github.com/CBATeam/CBA_A3/blob/75e6bfbc0fc578ccee38d60f607304a4991c8017/addons/events/fnc_keyHandlerDown.sqf

That way all CBA hotkeys will work from the display
also actionKeys won't work once modifiers come in. shift+ctrl+alt (as is common with TFAR) make the actionKeys numbers useless as their precision is too limited. Also TFAR keys don't even have a ActionKey

Question: If a client that has ai local to it(it is handling processing for ai) disconnects. What client are those ai then local to? Do they get dumped to server? This is an HC and Zeus related question for the most part.
still forum
server
potent depot
Ok, then if im worried about server killing itself in such an event, would disabling simulation on all of the dumped units locally on the server reduce the processing impact of the dump? Reenabling later ofc after processing or offloading the ai again ofc.
or would using disableAi be better?
potent depot
Its mostly meant for if like a HC dies and dumps 100+ ai with 50-70 players. That will probably kill it I think.
Thanks for the info
still forum
no it won't
potent depot
Hmm. It is moded so that is also a factor. Disabling simulation is probably something ill hold off on for now then. Im already grabbing all of the ai being dropped and immediately starting offloading.
winter rose
you could add them to the Dynamic Simulation system⦠or delete them
exotic flax
The worst that could happen is a minor server fps drop the moment the server gets all those AI.
Unless you have some weird scripts in place which only work/init on the server it should be fine.

@austere sentinel Thanks π but how would I insert this would i have to change variable names for the cars ?
@hollow cloak
Are you doing this in the editor or via script? Are you just checking all cars in the trigger area, or against specific ones? If the former; aforEach thisListwould check against all units in the given trigger (you'd put that in activation/deactivation field). If you want to check specific cars, you'd have to use varnames, yes.

No just every car inside the trigger at that time and yes its in editor if possible @austere sentinel

Cheers!

swap team?

in the editor there is a strange behave if I host, without group works
with group, I get in a ghost invisible state I can kill all map nobody is shooting me and I see only 3rd person and black/white screen like I am in Limbo
if I do in dedicated server then it works with or without group
the problem is when I am incapacitate ai start to give orders and also other script that need to know if player group leader to work... such ass penalty on ai die and addranking remove to player, don't work cos player is not leader, it's something I would like to fix to have a more polished system that still count AI loss to side of player also if he is incapacitated, and remove ranking, plus I would lose all command to supply truck and other ai in group if one AI take lead and start to assign waypoints to all group.
come on AI I am not died yet don't take lead wait at least you mf... heheh
slate sapphire
well that's an hint I'll follow also in real life but to be realistic in a warfare of hours and against also other players there is good amount of bullet in the air and the chance to get hit by one is very high, so I've ask if somebody already deal with incapacitated state and found a work around to the leadership swap, that was my question, if the answer is don't get shot, well thank you I'll tell to all players to don't get shot so problem solved.....

it's placed on the global init but it does nothing

fugitive is an undeclared variable, therefore the code errors
you can check in the arma rpt, and/or activate the -showScriptErrors startup flag to have a popup

fugitive is a unit

yep, you put the sleep after the condition in your while
the while code block should end with a boolean.

exotic tinsel
is there a function where i can pass cursor object and get config reference? issue is there are objects on the map that are not in cfgvehicles so i cant look up stuff using inherits from or functions like. i need to get base class name of an object that i cant click on in the eden editor.
still forum
typeOf gives you the class of the object
if it has a class. it has a cfgvehicles entry. if not it doesn't have a config entry at all (like many map objects)
exotic tinsel
so the equivalent to cfgvehicels. example what base class are tress in? is there a function that will give me that so can then write other code to get more info.
still forum
example what base class are tress in
none, they don't have a config class, they are terrain objects
exotic tinsel
ok.... when i use nearestobjects i cant hide/delete them. some stuff i want to delete/hide some stuff i dont. but i need to know the "iskindof" terms to use to keep what i want and remove what i want. only way i can do that is by looking them up in the config file, and to do that i need to know the base class to start looking in and it would be nice if i could go in game and look at something and return the info i need. so im trying to write that. not everything is terrain object or cfg vehicle. so any ideas on functions that would help. inheretsfrom or returnparents all require you to know the base class.
still forum
nearestObjects doesn't return terrain objects
exotic tinsel
well this hide/deleted everything on the map. this is just my test code. so....
{
private _x_delete = true;
if ((_x isKindOf "trees") || (_x isKindOf "bushes")) then
{
_x_delete = false;
};
if (typeOf _x == "O_MRAP_02_F") then
{
_x_delete = false;
};
if (_x_delete) then
{
deleteVehicle _x;
if !(isNull _x) then
{
hideObject _x;
};
};
} foreach nearestObjects [centerposition, [], 10000];
inheritsFrom gives you the base class of a class you have
have you read the nearestObjects wiki page yet?
it tells you how to detect trees
exotic tinsel
yes... hence my need for a way to detect them in the foreach so i dont delete them.
exotic tinsel
its not just about trees. its... nvm... ill ask someone else.
still forum
look at str _x for bushes, or modelInfo and see if you find anything that they have in common
but as I said, they have no config classes. so your config approach won't work
exotic tinsel
is there a way to detect if an object has no class?
still forum
what does typeOf return for a bush?
exotic tinsel
idk
bright flume
tbh think there is a class did he name which bush cuz the ETO module picks up bushes under 'grass'
bright flume
yeah but when it groups them Im thinking there some parentage that is being checked

if you have defined in description.ext then u just put the sound into the folder coresponding with the path defined in ext file

Has someone made a generalized system for dealing with all the different functions for accessing and modifying inventories? It requires a lot of boiler plate to have some remove item action that will work on a unit and a container. There should just be "removeItem" that will work regardless of what the target or item class is (and by "item" I mean everything, weapons, items, backpacks etc.)
winter rose
@ebon ridge doesn't and won't exist.
So far, remove everything then re add everything -1
winter rose
if you are talking about ammocrates, the "remove 1 item" will never exist
ebon ridge
i mean something that generalizes the different interfaces between a unit and an inventory for instance. If I want to remove a vest from some object, I need to use a different function if that object is a unit or a crate.
winter rose
yep, and it won't change
ebon ridge
I didn't ask if anything will change
I asked if someone has written a wrapper that makes it sane
winter rose
I don't think so, but⦠Perhaps
ebon ridge
I never seen such a thing, but its only the 3rd time I need to write code for simply removing something from a target regardless of if that target is a crate or a unit, and already I am annoyed by it, so I hoped someone who wrote it 10 times got annoyed enough to solve it π
in this case its an auto looting script for AI, I jsut want AI to take a vest from any possible place
whether its a box or a body
and even more generally I want them to take a set of things, a primary, vest and helmet, without needing separate code paths for each item
winter rose
removing one item from a crate is tricky : which magazine, for example? The first inserted one, or the one with the least ammo? Same for vest or backpack. Empty vest? Vest with one mag in it?
ebon ridge
yeah these would be decisions such an API would either decide for me, or allow me to control with parameters
winter rose
Write it
Sell it for 5 toilet paper rolls
???

still forum
different interfaces between a unit and an inventory for instance
uniformContainer, vestContainer, backpackContainer
are all vehicle cargo containers, same as if you target a vehicle directly
get the cargo container, and then use the same function on all of them because they are all equal
ebon ridge
yeah but unit itself is a container as well which can have a vest and uniform in it right?
or at least i want it to behave like one
i don't care that a unit can only have one vest, and a box can contain lots, I jsut want to say object removeItem "vestclass"
or something like that
still forum
yeah but unit itself is a container as well which can have a vest and uniform in it right?
no
a unit has containers on it. Its not a container per-se, or atleast the unit container itself you cannot access

Hey guys! A way to βblockβ players weapon slots? Primary, secondary and launcher. So that player can not use any weapons.

@hollow cloak maybe with a trigger and the commands doStop or disableAI "MOVE"

@distant oyster How would i use this in my mission?
summer void
any idea why a script that change weapon work on eden and worked 1 time in mp dont worked after changed the weapon but still same code ?
distant oyster
@hollow cloak depends on your mission. seems harder than I thought but as I said that depends on your mission... After all you could try with a waypoint that is synched to a trigger with activation by radios.
@lofty rain There is the eventhandler "InventoryClosed". maybe run a check on the unit and if he has a wepon drop it via commands.
lofty rain
@distant oyster thanks. Iβll start digging.

some commands work only in eden, some live

does the command remove weaponturret and add weaponturret only work in eden ?
i made it work one time in zeus
young current
since it worked in zeus that should tell you its not confined to Eden
most commands are normally run in live game
3DEN commands are restricted to the editor
and some of the other commands run in editor dont have actual effect when the mission is run and need to be run again when the game is live.

Is there a script anyone can help me with please where you scroll on a car and tell it to skip waypoint?
Also works on multiple separate cars
bright flume
ya even supposed to use args with that? https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BIS_fnc_ambientAnim says just use _unit call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim__terminate
also I believe someone mentioned this in the past, gotta lead in to the animation with ASIS otherwise wont matter what you stop it with as its already lost (could be the issue in this case?)

@haughty fable
it's sqf [player, "PRONE_INJURED", "ASIS"] call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim; sleep 2; player call BIS_fnc_ambientAnim__terminate; note that it's only player for the last call

vectorAdd
@haughty fable
private _origPos = getPosATL player;

scripts!
haughty fable
What you mean is to call the unit Unit1 (for example) and then do it all

for example yes; on each player connection, all init fields are run so it's "not great"

@winter rose I cant make it work π©
if (local this) then {

};
i tried but still nothing
winter rose
where did you put this?
winter rose
and where do you call it?
haughty fable
π€ i dont know, you told me to not use the init box of the unit π
What should i do?
winter rose
in init.sqf, _which is called locally for the server and each clients (even JIP),
if (player == unit1) then {
unit1 addAction ["Loadout", "Loadout.sqf"];
};
That way, the script is only called for the Unit1? and doesnt affect to the server?
winter rose
yep
as long as you don't allow group teamswitch or in-group respawn, it should be fine
haughty fable
unit1 addAction ["Loadout", "Loadout.sqf"]; so if i put only this on the init.sqf, what would happen?
winter rose
put what I wrote up there
if you only put this, you would have the same effect as before, everyone would have access to the action.
haughty fable
i still dont have the addAction
winter rose
are you unit1?
winter rose
nope
case-insensitive
what do you want to do? that only if you are unit1, you have the action, right?
haughty fable
Well, i still dont have the action :/
what do you want to do? that only if you are unit1, you have the action, right?
@winter rose What i want to do, is that if another player comes close to me, he cant do the addAction
winter rose
then that's the one
haughty fable
but it doesnt work
winter rose
are you sure it's init.sqf and not init.sqf.txt?
haughty fable
yes
winter rose
and are you playing as unit1?
winter rose
put this in init.sqf:
sleep 1;
systemChat "1";
if (player == unit1) then {
unit1 addAction ["Loadout", "Loadout.sqf"];
systemChat "2";
};
systemChat "3";
then tell me the systemChat output
winter rose
there is no armagic here; you probably didn't edit or save the good file
anyway, it's good now

I think its because i cant name the unit (unit1) only (Unit1)
