How disable Commanding Menu?

[nark0t1k 16]

Hi i'm looking how to disable Commanding AI Menu in Arma 3

I'm looking to a script or maybe a setting to be change on each client to disable this !

I allready find a way to empty it but not delete the functions

I'm talking about this

All advice are welcome !

I would recommend a KeyDown displayEH, and override the inputAction of the command menu, I'm just not sure which inputAction brings up that menu.

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/User_Interface_Event_Handlers

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/inputAction/actions

It may be "forceCommandingMode", but I'm not entirely sure.

You may have to override the display itself, and again, not too sure on that. I know AGM (a mod) has a disable feature in it, haven't looked into how they have done it.

Thanks for reply

forceCommandingMode Seem to be only the ² not all commanding menu :/

forceCommandingMode => "~" From https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/inputAction/actions/bindings

I work on a similar version of Altis Life with keyhandle but i actually use key to use skills

Then i already use keybinding for case 2,3,4,5 from now but that open commanding menu and play my script same time

Something like that

case 2: {

[cursorTarget] spawn myfunction;

};

Work with this commanding menu but was really great if i find a way to disable this totally and let me use these key

You need this:https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/displayAddEventHandler

"Returning true in EH code will override default engine handling for keyboard events. "

So if you override the keys by calling your function by a display eh and returning true, theoretically the menu shouldn't open. I haven't tried it with this menu, but usually it works as you'd expect.

Ok

in Init.sqf

(findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", "_this call life_fnc_keyHandler"];

I use "File: fn_keyHandler.sqf"

i use something like this??

switch (_code) do

{

case 1:

{

if(vehicle player != player && alive vehicle player) then

{

if((vehicle player) in life_vehicles) then

{

[vehicle player] call life_fnc_openInventory;

};

};

_handled = true;

};

};

1. You'll need to wait until display is active (!isNull (findDisplay 46)), or player is not null, THEN you can add ehs.

2. you have to return true for the eh: (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", {_this spawn life_fnc_keyHandler; true}];

* I wrote spawn instead of call since I really don't know what you are doing inside your script.

But you need to check it, I am not sure it is possible that it overrides ALL keypresses, which sucks.

Sorry, I cannot test it right now.

Thanks !

I will work with this :)

What different between

0 spawn {};

and

[] spawn {};

Nothing. You just pass something empty. 0 is one less character. :-)

if you wanted to be super sneaky you could just pass nothing to the script tho

Depending on where he runs the script, you might get an error if you don't pass at least an empty array.

Doesn't spawn require something to be passed to it?

As far as I remember I got an error with a naked spawn. Call can be naked though. At least this is what I remember.:-)

You are probably right. I just know I got an error the other day when I tried to send nothing through a spawn.
