Delete Vehicle When Destroyed

[doomanchu 11]

Wanting to clean up specific vehicles by running a script in their int line. I'm trying to use the following, but don't think I'm executing it correctly (or maybe the script itself is wrong?).

Vehicle int line:

[] execVM "delete.sqf";

delete.sqf

_vehicle = _this select 0;

waitUntil {!alive _vehicle};
sleep 30;
deleteVehicle _vehicle;

EDIT:

Maybe I need to use an event handler?

delete = this addEventHandler ["Dammaged", {_this execvm 'delete.sqf'}]

or

delete = this addEventHandler ["Killed", {_this execvm 'delete.sqf'}]

you dont even need a script for this. into the vehicle's init line goes:

this addEventHandler ["Killed",{(_this select 0) spawn {sleep 30; deleteVehicle _this}}]

However, what went wrong with your try is the call of the script in the init line, must be:

_nul = [this] execVM "delete.sqf"

Hey mate.... Bon's code is fine...you should have no problem with that.

There is a little test here to show that it does work.

I added a bit to it to delete the crew as well if they are left in the vehicle either fried or frying!

Yes, this solved my problem!

this addEventHandler ["Killed",{(_this select 0) spawn {sleep 30; deleteVehicle _this}}]
