nearestLocation with no name

[gc8 977]

hi i was trying to get name of location but the name command returns empty string...

i tried this:

t = nearestLocation [getpos player, "NameCityCapital"];

name t; // Empty string

t has location set though.

is it buggy?

have you tried "NameCity" or "NameVillage" only, maybe there is no capital set, tried a different map, is it an official one?

(check bin\Config.bin\CfgLocationTypes for valid location types)

Try this.... the hint will show you what's on the island/map.

_locs = [ nearestLocations [[0, 0, 0], ["NameCityCapital", "NameCity", "NameVillage", "NameLocal"], 100000]];
hint format ["%1",_locs];

On Utes for instance...there are no Capitals or Cities.

Try this:

t = nearestLocation [getpos player, "NameCityCapital"];

_name = text t;

Try this:

t = nearestLocation [getpos player, "NameCityCapital"];

_name = text t;

That was correct thanks
