Walking up to a player and pressing "T" will give them a light tap on the shoulder.

Installation

[] execVM "shoulderTap.sqf";

Download

Download via Armaholic

Credits

ACE for the idea.

this is awesome, to bad "T" is my throw key...

you should add a userconfig, and the abililty to choose ctl, or shift as a keycombo.

Thanks for this, gonna have to do some digging so i can use this

Many thanks Foxhound!

Thanks :)

Unfortunately a userconfig would require this to be a client-side addon as opposed to a server-side script.

What I could do instead is bind the key to one of the Arma custom keys which anyone can set themselves.

Will update the script tonight.

Good job but we have this message at the beginning in the editor and in the mission : variable "_ctrl" does not support serialization. Call 'disableSerialization' in the current script (maybe ") if you need to use it

Do you have a solution ?

Just what I have been looking for gonna have to test this one out!

Same here. Am I not seeing something obvious?

But it sounds great, really, can't wait to use it!

T is also my throw key :(

[R-o-x 11]

Yes I love the script! I'm trying to use it on my Invade & Annex mission for my clan and I get a warning message when I run the script.

Warning Message: Variable '_ctrl' does not support serialization. Call 'disableSerialization' in the current script (maybe '') if you need to use it.

Any idea what this could be? Is it something I'm doing wrong?

And dose someone know what key num I need, to make it LShift+T like in ACE? (Holding T is for my team status)

[Gudsawn 93]

Thanks for all the input guys, I've made the requested changes.

Script now released as mod instead of script only. Download available here:

I dont think so. I deleted the (0) in _ctrl = 0 and it went away. Not sure how it affects the script. Perhaps someone else can help.
