get all buildings within areas inc positions

[Desrat 0]

Just wondering is there a quick way to build an array of all available buildings and positions within them within a radius, rather that just the nearest one???

Even just a list of building class names would be a start..

no one?

_pos = position player;
_radius = 200;
_houses = nearestObjects [_pos , ["house"], _radius ];

nearestObjects [player, ["house"], 200]

If more than one object is found they will be ordered according to their distance (i.e. the closest one will be first in the array).

as for the building positions, suggest you choose one specific building and use a loop to count the possible locations.

place in a object or logic init

blds=nearestobjects [this,["house"], 100];ary=[];{ary=ary+[typeof _x,getpos _x]} foreach blds;hint str ary;copyToClipboard str ary

it should return something like this, the data is also copied to clipboard so you can post it in script.
