A3 SUV Police Lights

[stanerzz 10]

Hi guys just a quick one, I have been trying to find how to add action and add police lights to my SUV's on my life server.

So far i cannot find one script anywhere so if someone knows of one i will love you forever if you can let me know.

Thanks Guys

But.... It is already in there? If you press Shift+L they will turn on.

Sorry mate that seems not to work for me :(

[IT07 10]

Do you have the latest version of Altis Life?

[stanerzz 10]

After being reassured by one of my members that we was using the latest version i still proceeded to look, only to find that we was on a really old version so i thank you for suggesting it or i would never of went to look

You are welcome. Have fun with the lights :)

[stanerzz 10]

LOL thanks, one thing i was contemplating was an add action onto the player but this seemed like a really bad idea when i tried it as the basted things would not turn off

[IT07 10]

Well if you wanted a setup like that then you could do something like this:

while true do {
say3D"sirenlong";
};

And then when the siren is active, remove the "turn siren on" action and add the "turn siren off" action.

[stanerzz 10]

That is a very good idea ! i don't know why this did not cross my mind ;)

[IT07 10]

Well, actually, I might create a script that works with the addAction and publish it somewhere.

I have my own Altis Life test server using the arma3server.exe anyways so.... :)

[stanerzz 10]

that's would be fantastic, im currently at college but i will try make some time to type a script up tonight see what i can get going :)

[IT07 10]

I will do the same :) Would be fun to see what we both come up with ;)

I will give you a headstart xD

here is the code that you will need in order for the lights to show up. just wrap an addaction around it. should work.

Also try and find the executor of this script. Maybe some keyDown thing somewhere in a compile sqf.

private["_vehicle"];
_vehicle = [_this,0,ObjNull,[ObjNull]] call BIS_fnc_param;
if(isNull _vehicle) exitWith {}; //Bad entry!
if(!(typeOf _vehicle in ["C_Offroad_01_F","B_MRAP_01_F","C_SUV_01_F"])) exitWith {}; //Last chance check to prevent something from defying humanity and creating a monster.

_trueorfalse = _vehicle getVariable["lights",FALSE];

if(_trueorfalse) then {
_vehicle setVariable["lights",FALSE,TRUE];
} else {
_vehicle setVariable["lights",TRUE,TRUE];
[[_vehicle,0.22],"life_fnc_copLights",true,false] call life_fnc_MP;
};

Random question on this, the strobe lights on the Speedboat police, is it possible to add those to the SUV via. scripts? As they already exist.

[IT07 10]

If it is scripts that give the strobe light functionality, then yes. It will probably be possible to make. But you will need scripting knowledge for that.
