No damage taken within a Trigger radius

[mihikle 2]

Sorry to ask another question again so soon, however I have run into another issue:

Is it possible to take NO DAMAGE within a certain TRIGGER RADIUS? To prevent TK at spawn etc, as this is being put on a public server in the future.

Thanks!

{_x allowdamage false} foreach units thisList;

on deactivation

this allowDamage true (unsure but it should work)

[mihikle 2]

Hmm I can't get that to work.

Activation: Blufor, present

Condition: This

On Act.: {_x allowdamage false} foreach units thisList;

On Dea.: this allowDamage true

Does nothing! D:

{_x allowdamage false} foreach thisList;

"units" return the array of units within a group, not a trigger.

Using a trigger isn't going to give you what your after. When you leave the trigger you will still be protected. Also unless you force an update of the trigger the protection won't apply to other units entering the trigger only those present the first time it fires.

See if these will help

If u play Coop mission,this solution working for u.

game Logic

safezone = { _obj = _this select 0;thislist = _this select 1; _obj allowdamage false; waituntil {!(_obj in thislist)}; hint "out from safezone"; _obj allowdamage true;};

Trigger:

trigger cover base area.

50X50,anybody,present,repeatably

condition:true

act:

{[_x,thislist] spawn safezone} foreach thisList

and add

this allowdamage false

to players init.

You could also just create a game logic as the center of the are which the player will be protected in and call it "ProtectionCenter" or something like that.

Then in the init.sqf :

[player] execVM "spawnProtection.sqf";

spawnProtection.sqf :

_unit = (_this select 0);
while {true} do
{
_unit allowDamage true;
_distance = (_unit distance ProtectionCenter);
if (_distance <= SAFEDISTANCE) then  // edit "SAFEDISTANCE" to fit the radius you want the player to be protected in
{
	_unit allowDamage false;
               waitUntil {(_unit distance ProtectionCenter) > SAFEDISTANCE};
}
       else
       {
        waitUntil {(_unit distance ProtectionCenter) <= SAFEDISTANCE};
       };
};

This is untested.
