GameLogic in ArmA3, different?

[Tajin 349]

I just tried putting a "Logic" object into a vehicle as I often did in ArmA2. For some reason though, I couldn't do it.

Do Gamelogics behave differently in ArmA3 or am I missing something?

This for example didn't work:

L1 = createGroup west createUnit ["Logic", [0,0,0], [], 0, "NONE"];
L1 moveInCargo car1;

No gamelogic-experts around lately? ;)

does the logic exist? if not, is west center created beforehand?

[Tajin 349]

Yes I've checked that, the logic does exist. (tried the above directly from the console)

I can also setPos and getPos it as usual, it just seems to refuse to react to the "moveInCargo" command.

I thought logics being placed in vehicles had been disabled in A2, I've never actually tried it.

Is it supposed to simulate a live empty vehicle?

Ok. Did you also try moveInDriver etc?

I'm guessing you want this to occupy seats on cargo of some vehicle.

Just an idea: assignascargo some far far away units?

This works for me in the editor:

(create logic called L1 and vehicle called car1 in the editor).

L1 assignAsDriver car1; L1 moveInDriver car1;

This works for me in the editor:

(create logic called L1 and vehicle called car1 in the editor).

L1 assignAsDriver car1; L1 moveInDriver car1;

Nothing happening in A2/OA

center = createCenter sideLogic;
grp = createGroup center;
L1 = grp createunit ["LOGIC",[0,0,0], [],0, "NONE"];
L1 assignAsDriver car1;
L1 moveInDriver car1;
//[L1] join group player;

The logic is created as it can join the player but it's not in the vehicle.

Maybe i don't make sense at all, but would be "attachTo" a solution to it?

[Tajin 349]

Ok let me explain what I was trying to do:

I wanted to place gamelogics on cargoseats for two reasons:

1. to occupy the seat so noone else can sit there

2. to get the exact position of the seats and use those positions to transport objects (small ammoboxes)

Essentially this would allow me to create a very simple cargo-script that works with pretty much any vehicle, without having to be specifically configured.

I'll give it another go when I get home, maybe I just did something wrong. Thanks for checking.

There is always the invisible man found in the UAV

I think I may have been wrong - will check again tonight but the results seem inconsistent.

Oh I didn't think of that one, great idea. I guess that would work.

:D
