Hint only for specific units

[_qor 11]

Is there a possibility to show hints only to specific units?

Perhaps there is another way to show a text-message which makes this feasible?!

I couldnt find any

[twirly 11]

Something like this maybe....using a PVEH and titletext.

In your init.sqf:-

//Network titletext system
if (isNil "PVEH_netText") then {
PVEH_netText = [];
};

"PVEH_netText" addPublicVariableEventHandler {
  	private ["_text","_uidarray"];
  	_text = (_this select 1) select 0;
   	_uidarray = if (count (_this select 1) >1) then {(_this select 1) select 1};

if (isNil "_uidarray") then {
	titletext [_text,"PLAIN DOWN"];
} else {
	if ((getplayerUID player) in _uidarray) then {
		titletext [_text,"PLAIN DOWN"];
	};
};
};

Execute it like this for specific clients based on an array of UID's.... can be just one UID in the array.

PVEH_netText = ["Show this text",["123456","498765","645372"]];
publicvariable "PVEH_netText";

To run on all clients leave out the UID array:-

PVEH_netText = ["Show this text"];
publicvariable "PVEH_netText";

The Publicvariable can be updated from any machine.... but if you want the text to show up on the machine doing the updating you will have to add this line.... as PVEH's don't fire on the machine that broadcasts the variable.

titletext ["Show this text","PLAIN DOWN"];

It's a bit complicated... but if you wrap your head around this you can make all sorts of stuff happen across the network.

Must be MP to test!

we do it the hard way lol

same for hinting

if (_playertype in EGG_EVO_PlayerEng) then {hint format["Your player type is a : %1 and you can disable mines",_playertype]};

works for us!

@ eggBeast - LOL, I'm the same way. I'll write a whole wall of text to do a simple function.

[Horner 13]

You don't need PVEHs or anything like that. BIS is nice enough to add in a Remote Execution function ya'll, learn to use it :)

private["_units","_iUnit"];
_units = ["USMC_Soldier_Officer","USMC_Soldier_TL","USMC_Soldier_SL"];

for "_i" from 0 to (count playableUnits) do
{
_iUnit = playabeUnits select _i;
if (typeOf _iUnit in _units) then
{
	[nil,_iUnit,rHINT,"Message to officers and NCOs"] call RE;
};
};

[cuel 25]

But remote execution is using the PV/PVEH system :)?

From the RE page:

using publicVariable + addPublicVariableEventHandler (EH that fires for each publicVariabled variable on all clients - excluding calling client) + direct call on calling client

And with that you would be doing several publicVariable in a row instead of just doing it once

[Horner 13]

My point cuel, was that there is already a system in place that BIS developed and there is no sense in making your own, if you want to do things easily. Adding in suggestions, ya know.

[cuel 25]

Of course, but I think it's wise to bring up the downsides aswell :)

Writing your own PV/PVEH's is a great learning experience

[twirly 11]

My 2 cents...

There's a lot of sense in making your own. Because you can tailor it to your specific needs it will be way more efficient than using a generic built in routine!

[Horner 13]

Very true, I personally just go for a quick way to do things. PVEHs are nice for a lot of things, I just think for small amounts of code such as hints it's easier to use what's already there :)
