bis_fnc_TransportService?

[Militant1006 11]

Does anyone have experience with this function? I found it while looking through the function viewer, but I'm not sure how to implement it, I really need a new transport system for my mission, as Drapers Air Support is VERY buggy with ACE, and I understand that it was not made with ACE in mind.

It seems stupid that they don't give you any examples for it.

EDIT:

scriptName "Functions\systems\fn_transportService.sqf";

/*

File: transportService.sqf

Author: Choze

Description:

Transportation system

Parameter(s):

1: <object> unit allowed to use the transport system

2: <object> vehicle providing transport

3: <array> positions to be chosen by player; accepted strings are "pickup" and "unload", the second position is defined by the next paramter (OPTIONAL)

4: <position> (NEEDED ONLY IF PARAMETER #3 IS USED)

Returns:

N/A

};

Found it in the function viewer, but I still don't know how to write it ingame.

Why can't these things just have an example with them, it honestly wouldn't be that hard to do.

Can any devs or someone chime in here?

I have no idea why there are so many undocumented functions.
