Radio trigger limited to "Admin" slot

[Yolo Joe 11]

How can I make a radio trigger only usable by a playable unit called "Admin"?

Grouping the trigger makes it un-usable and syncing it does nothing.

You would have to use setRadioMsg setting the channel used e.g Alpha Bravo etc to NULL. setRadioMsg is a local command though, so would need to be executed on each clients machine that is not called Admin.

As radio triggers can be used by anyone with a radio, putting Admin functions on them IMO is a terrible idea.

Anywhoo... something like

{
if !( name _x isEqualTo "Admin" ) then {
	[ [ 1, "NULL" ], "setRadioMsg", _x ] call BIS_fnc_MP;
};
}forEach playableUnits;

where 1 is the channel index (see linked page for setRadioMsg from above). untested

First name your spawnable soldiers like p1, p2, p3 and so on (only the soldier which should activate should suffice also).

Create a trigger with Activation Radio Alpha, Once, Detected by Bluefor.

In de condition type:

(player == p1)

in the On Act type:

hint "Action Radio Alpha";

This shoud allow soldier p1 to use the radio (1,0,0,1) and display the hint.

To disable the Radio button for other soldiers, that are not allowed to use the radio button, place a second trigger. Make this fire by making the circle or rectangle big enough around the spawnpoints of the named soldier(s). Activation Bluefor (or other fraction) and present.

In the condition type":

this

In the On Act type:

if (player != p1) then //if player is NOT p1
{
    1 setRadioMsg "NULL" //deactivate the button in menu 1,0
};
hint "Radio Disabled";

the //text is here to explain, but you can ommit that in ArmA.

You will at spawning that the Radio is disabled, even for player p1 als he is equal to p1, thus the trigger fires. But the radio button is still usable with 1,0,0,1 and when actived you will see the message "Action Radio Alpha".

Hope this helps. Thanks to a previous post from @Dead3yez. Kudo's to that member.
