Possible to call other functions with variables involved?

[ryansoper 10]

Hi guys,

Is it possible to do something like:

_truck1 = "S1203_TK_CIV_EP1" createVehicle(getMarkerPos "tSpawn1");

but where there is S1203_TK_CIV_EP1 could I replace it with a variable that would contain the vehicle, so I could have a player variable with their vehicle in instead?

What are you trying to do? Create a specific vehicle for a given player(s)? I'm not understanding, could you elaborate further?

Thats exactly what I want to do, so the player could have a 'vehicle' variable, and when they have purchased a vehicle, it gets stored there and I can then create that vehicle at a later date.

Thanks.

hmm. I'm not the best person to help you with this. Maybe you could do it in a function

guy1Veh = {      if (player == guy1) then {_veh = "S1203_TK_CIV_EP1" createVehicleLocal (getMarkerPos "tSpawn1")}     }

call guy1veh

Something along those lines. I'm not very good at these sort of things.

The best way to handle this is to assign the vehicle to the player, save it to him.

player setVariable["MyVehicle","S1203_TK_CIV_EP1"];

then in your script:

_veh = player getVariable "MyVehicle";

_veh createVehicleLocal (getMarkerPos "tSpawn1");

_veh createVehicleLocal (getMarkerPos "tSpawn1");

What would be the best way to use this for an MP Game? Just replace the CreateVehicleLocal with CreateVehicle?
