How to script in a president slot

[silly_ghillie 10]

So I want to script a president onto this map where I play with my friends. The president is voted in, they get TP'd to a house. And when they connect after disconnecting it will spawn them there. And someone can get voted in and the old pres will be removed from office and replaced.

I also want the president to change laws or taxes etc. like island life.

Thanks

You're asking for a lot here. Do you have a money system set up? A voting system? A job system? Recurring payments? A tax system? Shops?

I'm really tired right now, but I wrote some code that might help you. It should all work okay.

isPresident = player0; //not sure how null works in arma 3 so this is a throwaway value
almostPres = player0;
highestVotes = 0;
voteArray = [ARRAY WITH ALL PLAYERS]; //you'll probably need this to keep track of votes
voteNumbers = [0]; //
voteTie = [];

//not sure how you're going to handle the voting part, maybe a GUI box that players can click on to vote for their friends?

{
   if (voteArray select (_x - 1)) > highestVotes then
       {
           call compile format ["almostPres = player%1;", _x];
       };
} forEach voteArray;

//{
//    if ((voteArray select (_x - 1)) = highestVotes) then
//        {
//            voteTie set [_x, = 
// This code was supposed to check for ties and then order a re-vote but I'm too tired to think

isPresident = almostPres; //"officially" makes the president the president

isPresident setPos [houseXCoord, houseYCoord, houseZCoord]; //teleports president to his house

and if someone could tell me how to make the PHP Code that would be nice, I just use "code" and "/code" and my code doesn't have cool colors

Good Luck

Here you go:

[<slash>php]. Be warned that the board's PHP formatting can break your code depending on the EOL characters used - so if you copy paste from poseidon then I'd stick with regular code tags.
