script conditions - only available when dismounted.

[farside 6]

I am making a life raft script, i was wondering how i would go about making the action "inflate life raft" only available after ejection, would be even better if it would be only available when swimming, save people from inflating it on land.

any ideas?

ok so now i have this as PPE.sqf

private ["_isSwimmingFunction"];

_isSwimmingFunction =

{

private ["_pos", "_isSwimming"];

_pos = position _veh;

_isSwimming = false;

if ((surfaceIsWater _pos) && ((_pos select 2) < 0.5) && (!_isChar || ((animationState player) in ["aswmpercmwlksnonwnondf", "aswmpercmsprsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon", "aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf_aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon_aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmstpdnon", "aswmpercmstpdnon_aswmpercmstpdf", "aswmpercmstpdf_aswmpercmstpdnon", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondf"]))) then

{

_isSwimming = true;

};

_isSwimming

};

_raft = if (_isSwimming = true) then [{player addAction ["Inflate Liferaft", "liferaft.sqf"]},{}];

but it doesnt create and action, ideas?

That was just an example, for you to see how to use the animations for swimming check. You cannot use "as is" - there are local variables in it which you do not use.

Try something like this:

_pos = getpos player;
_SwimAnims = ["aswmpercmwlksnonwnondf", "aswmpercmsprsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon", "aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf_aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondnon_aswmpercmrunsnonwnondf", "aswmpercmstpdnon", "aswmpercmstpdnon_aswmpercmstpdf", "aswmpercmstpdf_aswmpercmstpdnon", "aswmpercmstpsnonwnondf"];
if ((surfaceIsWater _pos) && (animationState player) in _SwimAnims) then {
	player addAction ["Inflate Liferaft", "liferaft.sqf"];
};
