Action menu help

[uzzmick 10]

in the mission editor: how do i make it so i can select "sleep" from a tent and it skip ahead 8 hours?

this is what ive got so far: a tent named "tent" with this in the int box: tent = tent addaction ["Sleep", "sleep.sqf"]; and a trigger with on act: skiptime 8

in the mission when i go to the tent Sleep pops up in the action menu but when i click it nothing happens how do i tell the trigger to go when i click sleep from the action menu???

1) Write a very short sqf script called sleep.sqf. It should look like this:

my_condition = true;

2) change the condition field in trigger mentioned above to my_condition

Yes, set the trigger to REPEAT and make sure my_condition becomes false* everytime it fires. Then you may use it as many times as you wish.

* This can easily be achieved in the triggers own activation field by adding a single line of code:

On act: skiptime 8; my_condition = false
