ima just create a thread here, im too tired to make any sense of this atm, i appreciate you helpin ill pick it back up in the morning

"the coordinates that you got yeah use those as setPos worldToModel (coordinates here) and vdirandup"

[lean hemlock]

ignore what i posted that was me testing model coordinate thingies

private _truck = (getPosASL this) nearestObject "B_Truck_01_flatbed_F";
this setPos (_truck modelToWorld /*replace this with your coordinates*/);
this setVectorDirAndUp /*replace this with your vectordirandup coordinates*/;
[this, _truck] call BIS_fnc_attachToRelative;```

[mellow crater]

alright

thanks again, ima pick it back up in the morning and post the results here

its working

oh nvm

only works when the truck is facing north

if the truck is turned it no longer follows it

alright, ive managed to find the code that works

private _truck = (getPos this) nearestObject "B_Truck_01_flatbed_F"; 
this setposasl (_truck modeltoworldworld [-1.21997,-0.699878,-0.308341]); 
this setVectorDirAndUp [ 
_truck vectorModelToworld [4.09273e-012,1,-2.79397e-009], 
_truck vectorModelToworld [1,4.09273e-012,-4.38325e-008] 
];
[this, _truck] call BIS_fnc_attachToRelative

this now allows me to attach it to the side with the right orientation

[lean hemlock]

sound

oh of course you couldnt use the vectordirandup from the relative one as its attachtorelative

pea brain kjw

[mellow crater]

damn, yeah like ive said im still very new to all this so im probably asking a ton of simple questions

[lean hemlock]

dont worry your code actually helped something im working on its just the game doesnt seem to like me
