Need Help with BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle

Thanks zapat

===============

Hello friends, I have a question:

Does BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle must enter "AH1Z" directly, rather than use a variable?? I write:

AHType="AH1Z";

_heligp = [_pos, _angle, AHType, _gp] call BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle;

It doesn't work!! write "AH1Z" directly is OK.

Anybody tell me why??:confused:

THANKS

Then your variable may not have been properly "initialized". Do you give it a value right before calling, or somewhere else in the script?

What does a

hint str AHType;

placed just before the spawnvehicle line says?

In addition:

If the BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle just can't use variable, then I want to know how to create a AH1Z flying.

If I just create it as car, it will crash from air...

It can use a variable of course!

If you "createVehicle" it, it won't have crew to drive it.

Have you tried to hint the value of AHType?

I try hint str AHType, it is "AH1Z".

No matter I put AHType or str AHType in function, it doesn't work...

For the position give the z coordinate of the position [x,y,z] a value. Other than that the code works fine.

Seems you have something going on somewhere with AHType. Look for previous occurences of it and see if you can sort it out.

I used position player here to test. But you probably need [_pos select 0 , _pos select 1, 100] to create the helo 100m up.

AHType = "AH1Z";

_heligp = [[b][(position player) select 0,(position player) select 1,100][/b], 10, AHType, west] call BIS_fnc_spawnVehicle;

twirly: it is not necessary needed.

If you pass a 2D position the function sets starting z to 50, unless you already have a value explicitly set to z of _pos.

So IMHO explicit z is only needed if you pass a 3D pos with a very low (like less than 10) z value.
