is there any Leatherman/Multitool?

[frosties 10]

Hello,

Working on adding a IED script to my mission and was wondering if there is any small tools availible in the game / addon?

The bolt cutter isnt small enough in my eyes.

My though is that something small, like a multitool must be in the players inventory in order to be able to disarm IEDs.

Any ideas?

Not really by default. You could use something like the Moscow_Bombing_File item they have to have in their inventory. Looks like a folder, but at least the name is somewhat appropriate. :)

Okey, will try that.

Is there any addon you can suggest that brings some other equipment that might be useful?

EDIT:

What im trying to do is add the ability to find and desarm IEDs with the SR5 IEDdetect script.

Usually i must add this to the INIT of a player:

nul0 = [this,50,10,00,01] execVM "enemy\modules\SR5_IEDdetect\IEDdetect_detector.sqf"

But i would like it so that only player who is carrying a certain item would be able to find and disable IEDs.

Preferably a tool of somekind, but havent found any.

Trying to use this in INIT.sqf to check if a player is caryring the item:

[player hasWeapon "Moscow_Bombing_File"] [nul0 = [this,50,10,00,01] execVM "enemy\modules\SR5_IEDdetect\IEDdetect_detector.sqf"];

But no joy. Not that good on coding so i cant seem to find the correct information on how to change the variables and arrays...

:butbut:

Is it possible in other ways to limit the rank of a player (to simulate training for this kind of stuff) or have a UID or role limiation?

Say only XXX UID (clan use)

or

Role: e.g only IED Tech can find and disarm?

Hi,

you can use this in your init.sqf:

[] spawn {
waitUntil {player hasWeapon "Moscow_Bombing_File"};
nul0 = [player,50,10,00,01] execVM "enemy\modules\SR5_IEDdetect\IEDdetect_detector.sqf";
};

You can also make a loop that removes the ability once the item has been dropped. (Not sure if the IED detect script supports that, should be doable though...)

[] spawn {
while {true} do {
	waitUntil {player hasWeapon "Moscow_Bombing_File"};
	nul0 = [player,50,10,00,01] execVM "enemy\modules\SR5_IEDdetect\IEDdetect_detector.sqf";
	waitUntil {!player hasWeapon "Moscow_Bombing_File"};
	// remove ability ?
};
};

BTW: The ACE Mod has some good toys for your purpose. :)

Edit:

Regarding the limitaions:

if (getPlayerUID player == "123") then {
// add here
};

if (rank player == "SERGEANT") then {
// add here
};

if (typeOf player == "US_Soldier_Engineer_EP1") then {
// add here
};

I avoided mentioning that since he said the bolt cutters were too large and that's even larger! :) Then again it doesn't have the lovely "put the bolt cutters away and auto-'frag out'" bug...

Thanks guys, i will give this a try.

Regarding the minesweeper, im trying to get a deasrming kit up and running, not finding buried mines :P

if (typeOf player == "US_Soldier_Engineer_EP1") then {

// add here

};

Can i make this an array and put several things?

Have tried this in my INIT.sqf but its not working:

private ["_ied_class_array","_player_class"];
_ied_class_array = ["m_Seal2h_ACE"];

if (_player_class in _ied_class_array) then
{
   nul0 = [player,50,10,00,01] execVM "enemy\modules\SR5_IEDdetect\IEDdetect_detector.sqf";
// add here
};

(typeOf player) in _Array is possible.

You sure about that class name? m_Seal2h_ACE looks a bit off.

Any errors in your RPT?
