Conditional Scripting With Greater than less than

[ra1n0fpa1n 10]

Sorry For Double Posting like this i wrote the title wrong

I understand how conditional scripting works but i need to know how i could set up this conditional script with integrating the greater than and less than and greater than equal to into the script

To make an example i want i can only access a certain script if i have a value no less than 3 but can be 3 (so greater than equal to 3) in this case i want to make it so the score total needs to be at least 3 points to access the script

So here are my examples (they are just irrelevant examples but will be used in the same way)

if (score player => 3) then

{hint "You Must Destroy The Tank First";}

else

{hint "Rescue the VIP";};

If anyone can and correct me and help it would be much appreciated

HERE you go tested and working

_points = score _caller;


if (_points > 5) then // checks for player / caller of script has 5 points
{

==> YOUR CODE GOES HERE<==

}
else

{
hint "you do not have 5 Points Available to use";
};

and if you want the player to lose points for doing this then add

ParaCost =
          {		
	        _pscore = -5;	
			if (isServer) then 
			{
			player addScore _pscore; // for hosted environment
			hint format ["%1 lost %2 Points for usingwhatever you want", player, _pscore];
			} 
		    else

		    {
			paddscore = [player, _pscore]; publicVariable "paddscore";
		    hint format ["%1 lost %2 Points for using whatever you want", player, _pscore];
			};				

so it looks like this

usageCost =
          {		
	        _pscore = -5;	
			if (isServer) then 
			{
			player addScore _pscore; // for hosted environment
			hint format ["%1 lost %2 Points for usingwhatever you want", player, _pscore];
			} 
		    else

		    {
			paddscore = [player, _pscore]; publicVariable "paddscore";
		    hint format ["%1 lost %2 Points for using whatever you want", player, _pscore];
			};	

_points = score _caller;


if (_points > 5) then // checks for player / caller of script has 5 points
{

==> YOUR CODE GOES HERE<==
[_caller,-5] call usageCost;

}
else

{
hint "you do not have 5 Points Available to use";
};

ive been there before every time i try to execute my command nothing happens

if (score player => 3) then

{hint "You Must Destroy The Tank First";}

else

if (score player <= 3) then

{hint "Rescue the VIP";};

but maybe if i put another condition it may work

i forgot the

_caller = _this select 0;

place this above the

_points = score _caller;

Thank You SOOOO MUCH ive been stuck on this for the whole day

and if you are using without an addaction like in the example just change

_caller = _this select 0;

to

_caller = player;

or if you want the score for say west or east side to activate the code use

_caller = scoreSide west; // or east whatever you need

hope all this helps

There is no "else if" in SQF, so you're probably failing for syntax error of trying to use else if. Use non-odd formatting. :)

// playerscore being some variable you created since the score command only works in MP

if (playerscore <= 3) then {
    hint "You Must Destroy The Tank First";
};

if (playerscore > 3) then {
    hint "Rescue the VIP";
};

// use this to increase the variable playerscore
playerscore = playerscore + 1;
