{alive _x} count crew vehiclenamehere == 0

the above is what code i also use to check if a vehicle is empty, but it really only return true when 0 units inside the vehicle is alive.

so if you dont mind corpses, use that, or if you need to make sure that it really is EMPTY, then use this:

(count (crew vehiclenamehere)) == 0

that will only return true when a vehicle is empty of all dead and alive units.

Simple i'm trying do to that when the vehicle is empty an action comes up:

Condition

(count (crew truck1)) == 0

On Activation

truck1 addAction ["setup", "setup_script.sqf"];

And if there is someone inside the action become unavailable

Condition

(count (crew truck1)) >= 1

On Activation

truck1 removeAction 0

The problem is, everytime i create a new "setup" action the ID of the action change, so the removeAction trigger become useless. Can you help me?

You could just give the action a handle and then delete it by that name.

on act

act1 = Truck1 addAction ["setup", "setup_script.sqf"];

on act

truck1 removeAction act1

Better solution:

Execute once (ex: init field):

Truck1 addAction ["Setup","setup_script.sqf",[],6,false,true,"","count (crew Truck1) < 1"]

Big Dawg KS example is the by far better soultion, i works like this: action i always there, but action will only show when vehicle is empty, and the action will only be added once.

i would do a small change though, since you add your action to the truck itself:

Truck1 addAction ["Setup","setup_script.sqf",[],6,false,true,"","count (crew [b]_target[/b]) < 1"];

notice i replaced truck in the last condition with _target.

it works the exact same way, but now you dont need to add in the truck name in the condition as its dynamically handled.
