how to check how many crewmen play on each side

Hello

I'm stuck. What need I to write in code to get number of players which play on crewman class on west side? "crewman class" I mean "b_crew_f".

Regards

_crewmanCount_Blufor = {alive _x && typeOf _x == "b_crew_f"} count allUnits;
player sideChat format ["%1", _crewmanCount_Blufor];

You can do a side check too, if you've blufor units joining opfor or resistance sides for example. Else, I would expect simply checking for the blufor crewman type (above) would be enough to return the count of crewman on the blufor side.

_crewmanCount_Blufor = {alive _x && side _x == blufor && typeOf _x == "b_crew_f"} count allUnits;
player sideChat format ["%1", _crewmanCount_Blufor];

Big thanks for so quick answear. I tried for 3hours now I will try it :)

Edit. I used it because i needed all players dead or alive

_crewmanCount_Blufor = {typeOf _x == "b_crew_f"} count allUnits;
player sideChat format ["%1", _crewmanCount_Blufor];

But if I need all players should I use this?

_crewmanCount_Blufor = {isPlayer _x && typeOf _x == "b_crew_f"} count allUnits;
player sideChat format ["%1", _crewmanCount_Blufor];

On my computer it works.

Thanks so much.

Ahh yes, isPlayer check is helpful for checking if units are players :). Especially if there are AI crewman on the map aswell. Else you wouldn't even need to check for players, if players only are going to be the crewman type.
