Setting varriable to selected player

[mr_shadow 4]

Hey ebry1, can some1 tell how can I setvarriable to player who was selected from server list, to see all players I'm using dialog that is showing them, but dunno how to set it up for him.

This is using to find the player

{

if (isPlayer _x) then

{

_Playeridx = lbAdd [2100,name _x];

};

}forEach playableUnits;

}

Seriously? Nobody knows?

Maybe it's just that nobody understands your question? Anyway, complaining about not getting an answer in a matter of hours seems a bit... rude. Nobody's your slave around here, people will answer if they know what to anwer and have time for it.

Now I'd suggest you clarify your question a bit. Use the

 tags when pasting code in here.

What do you mean by server list? What variable do you want to set? Are you talking about the actual player (yours)?

T9, I don't mean server list, I mean list of players on server, no I'm not talking about actual player because I know that I can use "player setvarriable"

I have a dialog.hpp creating on keypress, there I've setted up to show all players from server, and I want to setvarriable to player who was selected in that list when pressing button in the dialog. The only thing that I can't fix is that varriable thing.

It's like on life when you are selecting player to transfer him money. But life scripts will not help me. Even don't suggest it.

When you are going to speak 4 languages - tell me, I will give you tips.

Then I'll assume you want to look at lbCurSel.

I am. Still write better than a text. There was some sort of tacit rule here, that you had to avoid writing in any kind of slang or txt style. It may even be in the forum rules.

[mr_shadow 4]

Useless.

Stop spamming about the text that has been used, if you even don't remember the rules.

Proper way to get help mate

[Ranwer135 308]

Here :rolleyes:

IMPORTANT: This will not work on groups if you do it from the init line (you'll experience locality issues). Do something like this instead: Put this on init line: b_GroupSetup = [group this, "3/B", "Tank", "Platoon"]execvm "grouptest.sqf";

grouptest.sqf:

if (isserver) then {

private ["_GroupSelect", "_GroupDesig", "_GroupType", "_GroupSize"];

_GroupSelect = _this select 0;

_GroupDesig = _this select 1;

_GroupType = _this select 2;

_GroupSize = _this select 3;

_GroupSelect setvariable ["groupDetails", [_GroupDesig, _GroupType, _GroupSize, 0, [], ""], true];

};

Hope it helps,

Ranwer

EDIT: now if your a noob, its fine, ill guide you through it. the init at the top of the qoutes: b_GroupSetup = [group this, "3/B", "Tank", "Platoon"]execvm "grouptest.sqf";

the script above, you put it in your unit in the editor, to do so, double click. Now just copy the script on the "init:".

After that, you will be needed to save the mission in order for this to work, just save it and call it anything you like. Now, the grouptest.sqf, you will be needed to go into your mission file, to do so go to your Documents/Arma3/profilename/mission name. now create a text file and rename the whole thing to grouptest.sqf . After that copy the below scripts above into the sqf file. Then your done! go back into the editor, click save and then preview (NOTE: YOU MAY HAVE TO COPY THE MISSION FILE TO MPMISSIONS IN YOUR PROFILE SO IT WILL WORK IN MP)

If you phrased the question more then maybe better assistance could be given. Since it's involving Dialogs I could help you but I don't quite understand what you are wanting to do...

[Ranwer135 308]

I dug up some of my old files in my computer and I found my extracted version of CCL LIFE.

Here is a script you might be looking for:

wantedrelease.sqf

_deletekopfgeld = _this select 2;

_civnumber = _civnumber+1;

_civ = format["civ%1", _civnumber];

_civvar = call compile format["%1", _civ];

if (not(_civ call ISSE_UnitExists)) exitWith {role groupChat localize "STRS_player_not_ingame";};

if (_deletekopfgeld == 1) exitWith

{

format["kopfgeld_%1 = 0; %1_wanted = 0; %1_reason = [];", _civ] call broadcast;

player groupChat format [localize "STRS_kopfgeld_entfernt", _civ];

};

if (_reason == "Description of crime") exitWith {player groupChat "You must enter a description of the crime!"};

call compile format ["_civarrestedvar = civ%1_arrest;",_civnumber];

if ((!(alive _civvar)) or (_civarrestedvar == 1)) exitWith {role groupChat format [localize "STRS_kopfgeld_nokopfgeld", _civ];};

format ["%2_wanted = 1; if(!(""%4"" in %2_reason))then{%2_reason = %2_reason + [""%4""]};server globalchat ""%3 is wanted for %4 by %1"";", name player, _civvar, name _civvar, _reason] call broadcast;

Thanks a lot mate, but life script especially from arma 2 will not help me.

[Ranwer135 308]

Ok, well some of the ArmA 2 scripts can be compatible. Anyway, ive sent 2 PM's to ya, 1 with a link of possible scripts you might wanna test out, and 1 with a link to a library of scripts.

The problem has been solved, thanks to Tonic for helping.

[kylania 568]

You should post your solution so that others can find it when they have a similar problem.

[mr_shadow 4]

I'll just explain in a sense that I know, this may or may not work for you. But the file in which you are putting the players names (the dialog) when you fill the list of names do something like this.

PHP Code:

{

lbAdd[2100,name _x];

lbSetData[2100,(lbSize 2100)-1,str(_x)];

} foreach (playableUnits); //This is a array of all playable units, replace it with whatever

Then have a button on that dialog called 'Promote' and make it execute:

PHP Code:

private["_player"];

if(lbCurSel 2100 == -1) exitWith {hint "You did not select a player."};

_player = call compile format["%1",(lbData[2100,lbCurSel 2100])];

if(isNil "_player") exitWith {hint "Player doesn't exist?"};

[{player setVariable["ispromoted",1,true]; player execVM "want1.sqf"; hint "You have been promoted";},"BIS_fnc_call",_player,false] spawn BIS_fnc_param;

You can put that code in a file like promote.sqf and have the button execVM it and it should promote the user. If it fails then it may be a issue with the call compile format, if that is the case then in the editor just name your playable units like unit_1,unit_2,unit_3,etc.

I don't know if I understand everything well but that is a rough example of how to use a promoting like systemish with Dialogs.

Code written by Tonic.

[kylania 568]

I think you want BIS_fnc_MP and not BIS_fnc_param at the end there.

[tonic-_- 53]

Damn, did I type param? Used to typing a different one as I have a custom BIS_fnc_MP

Forceful habit with param...
