How to turn init code in to a script?

[pierremgi 4743]

 

if (_unit IsKindOf "CAManBase") then {
  call {
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "BLU_F") exitwith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_BLUFORnato}; // standard NATO
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "BLU_CTRG_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_BLUFORspecops}; // CTRG
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "BLU_G_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_BLUFORion}; // FIA as IoN security
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "OPF_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_OPFORcsat}; // standard CSAT
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "OPF_R_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_OPFORspecops}; // Spetznaz as Viper guys
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "IND_G_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_INDFORfia}; // standard FIA
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "IND_C_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_INDFORspecops}; // Syndikat as common criminals
    if (faction _unit isEqualTo "CIV_F") exitWith {[_unit] spawn CB_fnc_loadout_CIV};
  };
};

Roger that, changed. Thanks!

btw, you could use a hashmap , probably better for preparing such script(s).

Something like:

CB_Factions_data = createHashMapFromArray [
  ["BLU_F", [
                  [ "WhiteHead_01", "WhiteHead_05", "WhiteHead_04",...],
                  [ "U_I_L_Uniform_01_tshirt_black_F", .5, "U_I_L_Uniform_01_tshirt_olive_F", .5, "U_I_L_Uniform_01_tshirt_skull_F", .5,....],
                  [ "\a3\characters_f_gamma\Civil\Data\c_cloth1_black.paa", "A3\Characters_F\Civil\Data\c_cloth1_kabeiroi_co.paa", ....],
                  [ "V_LegStrapBag_olive_F", "V_LegStrapBag_coyote_F", "V_LegStrapBag_black_F", "V_Pocketed_black_F", ...],
                  [ "H_Beret_blk", "H_Bandanna_gry", "H_Bandanna_blu", "H_Bandanna_cbr", "H_Booniehat_taiga", "H_Booniehat_wdl",....],
                  [ "arifle_AKM_F", "arifle_AKS_F", "arifle_AK12U_F", "arifle_CTAR_blk_F" ,...],
                  [....]
            ],
    ],
  ["BLU_CTRG_F", [[...],[...],...]] ],
  ....
];

This way, you can see the whole things you want and the codes are faster. You create the hashmap once for all, then use it multiple times.

Usage is a little bit different from testing a condition and running a script. Just:

private _factionData = CB_Factions_Data get faction _unit;

_unit setFace selectRandom (_factionData #0);
_unit forceAddUniform selectRandomWeighted (_factionData #1);

if (_factionData == "IND_G_F" && {uniform _unit == "U_IG_Guerilla1_1"} && {random 10 > 5} ) then  {
  _unit setObjectTextureGlobal [0, _fiaFatigues];
  _unit setobjectTextureGlobal [1, "#(argb,8,8,3)color(0.33,0.31,0.24,0.3)"]
};

_unit addVest selectRandom (_factionData #3);

There is no delay whatever the key (faction here) could be.
Of course, it's a dirty example. Adapt and mind for the arrays and the global structure of the hashmap.

Have fun

Why init.sqf ? So this is happening everywhere!

Should just be initServer.sqf and then remoteExec the loadout script to where the unit is local, due to some of the commands being LA.

//initServer.sqf

// detect and change all editor placed units 
{
	[_x] call CB_fnc_factionConfig;
} forEach ( allUnits select { _x isKindOf "CAManBase" && { !isPlayer _x }} );

// add MEH to catch anything spawned
CB_MEH_factions = addMissionEventHandler ["EntityCreated", {
   params ["_entity"];

  if ( _entity isKindOf 'CAManBase' && { !isPlayer _entity }) then {[_entity] call CB_fnc_factionConfig};

}];

//CB_fnc_factionConfig

// handles
params[ "_unit" ];
//Everything here will already be CAManBase and !player

//ignore special units with this variable

// factions to re-paint
private _scriptName = switch ( faction _unit ) do {
	case ( "BLU_F" ) :      { "BLUFORnato" };
	case ( "BLU_CTRG_F" ) : { "BLUFORspecops" };
	case ( "BLU_G_F" ) :    { "BLUFORion" };
	case ( "OPF_F" ) :      { "OPFORcsat" };
	case ( "OPF_R_F" ) :    { "OPFORspecops" };
	case ( "IND_G_F" ) :    { "INDFORfia" };
	case ( "IND_C_F" ) :    { "INDFORspecops" };
	case ( "CIV_F" ) :      { "CIV" };
};

[ _unit ] remoteExec[ format[ "CB_fnc_loadout_%1", _scriptName ], _unit ];

_bigThanks = "Many thanks, you guys are awesome!! 😁";

_homies = getPos (Pierremgi && @Larrow);

Will reconfigure and I am learning alot by your examples. Thanks to you both. Will try to post an example mission with it cleaned up soon, so others can take an inside look.
