How to remove weapons for pilots only? (Even when after respawned)

[Coolinator 10]

How do you remove weapons for pilots only? even after they respawned?

[jshock 512]

if (player isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then
{
  removeAllWeapons player;
};

player addEventhandler 
[
  "Respawn",
 {
     if ((_this select 0) isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then
     {
        removeAllWeapons (_this select 0);
     };
 }
];

[Coolinator 10]

if (player isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then
{
  removeAllWeapons player;
};

player addEventhandler 
[
  "Respawn",
 {
     if ((_this select 0) isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then
     {
        removeAllWeapons (_this select 0);
     };
 }
];

Thank you so much! Jshock!!! it's been a long time :D

Im still not sure how to run this, i know it's sad lol

Can i run it like this?

init.sqf

execVM "Pilot.sqf";

Pilot.sqf

if (player isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then 
{ 
  removeAllWeapons player; 
}; 

player addEventhandler  
[ 
  "Respawn", 
 { 
     if ((_this select 0) isKindOf "B_pilot_F") then 
     { 
        removeAllWeapons (_this select 0); 
     }; 
 } 
];  

[jshock 512]

I would create a initPlayerLocal.sqf and do something like this:

initPlayerLocal.sqf:

if (player isKindOf "B_Pilot_F") then 
{ 
  removeAllWeapons player;
};

player addEventhandler  
[ 
  "Respawn", 
 { 
     if ((_this select 0) isKindOf "B_Pilot_F") then 
     { 
        removeAllWeapons (_this select 0); 
     }; 
 } 
];

EDIT: Checked to make sure, and pilot is capitalized in "B_Pilot_F", changed above.

Ahh Thank you so much!!! i really appreciate it :)

Made another quick edit, check above, also made another change in the code, so just re-copy/paste :p.

Which one? the first post you made?

Also, Jshock how do you put radio towers? i can't find it in the editor :( (don't want to make new thread, so i just ask here).

[jshock 512]

Post #4, and:

_obj = createVehicle ["Land_TTowerBig_2_F", _somePosition, [], 0, "NONE"];

About the radio towers.

Do I use game logic? and how do i make them destroyable? and how do i make it a task?

For example, when radio tower destroyed, task completed. (like i want to use "!alive tower", but i don't know how to do it with game logics?)

MISTAKE EDIT: (I meant game logics not game objects, sorry about that)

I tried making radio tower with game logic, i put the script in game logic's init but it's giving me error "Local variable in global space"?

Edited January 22, 2015 by Coolinator

[jshock 512]

This is for use in an sqf file, not in a game logic and the script would be something like the following:

_somePosition = ;//set this variable to the position you want the tower to be at
//example positions
//getMarkerPos "markerName";
//[123,456,789] << some position array (x,y,z) coordinates

_tower = createVehicle ["Land_TTowerBig_2_F", _somePosition, [], 0, "NONE"];

[
"RadioTower",
true,
["Destroy the Radio Tower at all costs.","Destroy Radio Tower", ""],
(getPos _tower),
"AUTOASSIGNED",
5,
true,
true
] call BIS_fnc_setTask;

waitUntil {sleep 5; !alive _tower;};

["YourTaskNameHere","Succeeded",true] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;

So execute it in the init.sqf or whenever you want the tower and task to be created.

this is really too advanced for me but i go give it a try, but i have to ask a lot of questions if thats okay with you?

about

[/C_somePosition = ;//set this variable to the position you want the tower to be at
//example positions
//getMarkerPos "markerName";

i want to use getMarkerPos "markerName"; instead of coordinates can you give me an example how to include that in the script? im really sorry im not pro scripter :(

For example, i named marker "tower1'

do i do it like this?

_somePosition = getMarkerPos "tower1"; //set this variable to the position you want the tower to be at
//example positions
//getMarkerPos "markerName";
//[123,456,789] << some position array (x,y,z) coordinates

_tower = createVehicle ["Land_TTowerBig_2_F", _tower1, [], 0, "NONE"];

Yes, your correct with the position, but where you have "_tower1" in the code put it back to "_somePosition" because the getMarkerPos blah is saved into _somePosition.

tested it, no tower showed up :( i put marker called "tower1", made a "tower.sqf", i put the script code inside "tower.sqf". In my init.sqf i put (execVM "to objectswer.sqf";) tested it.. no luck :(

i think im just gonna bail out on this.

Im just gonna use military devices objects to substitute for the towers for my mission objectives. Thanks so much your help, i really appreciate it :)

[jshock 512]

I made one minor change to see if it helps.

And to ensure we haven't lost exactly what needs to happen:

1. Make a marker named: "tower1"

2. Create a .sqf file name: "tower.sqf"

3. Paste the code below into tower.sqf and save it.

_somePosition = getMarkerPos "tower1";

_tower = createVehicle ["Land_TTowerBig_2_F", _somePosition, [], 0, "NONE"];

_task = 
[
   "RadioTower",
   true,
   ["Destroy the Radio Tower at all costs.","Destroy Radio Tower", ""],
   (getPos _tower),
   "AUTOASSIGNED",
   5,
   true,
   true
] call BIS_fnc_setTask;

waitUntil {sleep 5; !alive _tower;};

[_task,"Succeeded",true] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;

4. In the init.sqf put the following call to the script:

0 = [] execVM "tower.sqf";

How do you end mission? and using multiple towers? im used to using triggers for ending missions, but with scripting i have no experience :( but's it okays if you dont feel like explaining all of that stuff, im already happy to see a radio tower lol :) thnx ^^

Try this out:

_towerMarkers = ["tower1","tower2","tower3"];//<<put all tower markers here

//script should do the rest


_towerPositions = [];

_allTowers = [];

{
_towerPositions pushBack (getMarkerPos _x);
} forEach _towerMarkers;

{
_tower = createVehicle ["Land_TTowerBig_2_F", _x, [], 0, "NONE"];

_task = 
[
	"RadioTower",
	true,
	["Destroy the Radio Tower at all costs.","Destroy Radio Tower", ""],
	(getPos _tower),
	"AUTOASSIGNED",
	5,
	true,
	true
] call BIS_fnc_setTask;

_tower setVariable ["spawnedTowerTaskID",_task,true];

_tower addEventHandler 
[
	"Killed",
	{
		[(_this select 0) getVariable "spawnedTowerTaskID","Succeeded",true] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;
	}
];

_allTowers pushBack _tower;
} forEach _towerPositions;

waitUntil {({alive _x} count _allTowers) isEqualTo 0};

[] call BIS_fnc_endMission;

THank you so much Jshock! :) i really appreciate it!

I haven't tested it yet, but i will test them in my future missions.

Actually small edit, probably need a unique ID for each task, not the same one :p:
