Set Radio commands to UID

[Graz 1]

I've got a small trigger that's a radio command setting a global variable.

I know that I can bind radio commands to certain player slots and only allow accepted UID's into player slots.

Is there a way to cut out the middle man and just have the Setradiomsg

//My current template from demonized

if (unit1 == player) then {

1 setRadioMsg "Alpha Radio is showing this for player unit1";

} else {

1 setRadioMsg "NULL";

hint "for other players its not showing";

};

I'd like to change unit1 = player to

an expression that obtains player UID and matches is against an array of UIDs

Does anyone know how to do this?

NOTE: This is for MP so if I could avoid using "player" it would be appreciated!!

setRadioMsg doesn't change its activation.

Something like this. Only works in MP.

if (isDedicated) exitWith {};
if (!isMultiplayer) exitWith {hintSilent "Can only check whitelist in multiplayer"};
waitUntil {!isNull player};
waitUntil {getPlayerUID player != ""};
_wl = ["123456","654321"];

if ((getPlayerUID player) in _wl) then 
{
_trg = createTrigger ["EmptyDetector", position player]; 
_trg setTriggerText "Var to true"; 
_trg setTriggerActivation ["ALPHA", "PRESENT", false]; 
_trg setTriggerStatements ["this", 'myVar = true; publicVariable "myVar"', ""]; 
};

You could also jus change the setTriggerStatements if you give the editor-placed trigger a name.

I don't think you understand how the "player" variable works. It's different on every client :).

Wow that looks great, I'll give it a whirl tonight. Thanks so much for the lightning fast response!

On player:

Most of my edits run on the client side, so player can cause some funky stuff to happen with triggers :)

Having a few issues:

Most of the command is perfect

if (isDedicated) exitWith {};

if (!isMultiplayer) exitWith {hintSilent "Can only check whitelist in multiplayer"}; // HAVING ISSUE HERE

waitUntil {!isNull player};

waitUntil {getPlayerUID player != ""};

_wl = ["123456","654321"];

For some reason if I run the command in the init I get errors and crashes with the multiplayer line, what are the consequences to removing this line?

seems to run fine without the multilayer part :S
