[Script-help] Damage on certain obj and BIS_fnc_selectRandom

[farran 1]

Hi,

Really Nice community here.

I just wonder if anyone can help me with my scripting questions i have.

1. I trying to "handledDamage" to an object with only "Explosive charge" i think the name is "DemoCharge_Remote_Mag" all other damage is not allowed. found something here but that didn't work.
   
2. I also try to exclude the last selected marker spot from BIS_fnc_selectRandom from eg. markerxx = (["m1","m1_1"] call selectRandom); so it will not be selected twice in a row.
   

I appreciate all help i can get here, this is a last bit of the puzzle after 8 weeks of "trying to understand coding in arma":confused: But i will publish the work later on when done.

It's a mission generator that never ends.

1) In the wiki it says that if your handleDamage event handler returns 0 or no value then the object will be invulnerable. So you could use that and check if _this select 4 (which is the projectile parameter passed by the event handler) is equal to the allowed projectile, if it's you destroy the object with setDamaga 1;, if the projectile is not allowed you just return 0 and the objects remains invulnerable. (not sure if this would work haven't tested).

2) If your markers array has uniques values you can remove the used entry with:

markersArray = markersArray - markerxx;

It is better to use documentation of EH for Arma 3, because there are some changes. If there is no return value, then object is not invulnerable anymore in Arma 3: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA_3:_Event_Handlers#HandleDamage

Thanks for the clarification. So, in A3 you have to return 0 to make it invulnerable. I always visit the A2 page because I just type "event" on the url bar and the url appears, I will update it to A3 now.
