AttachTo, trying to attch a lamp on torret

[sinny 18]

Hi all,

 

Im going crazy here, im trying to attach a lamp [ Land_PortableLight_single_F ] to [i_MRAP_03_hmg_F]´s turret.

 

Ive been using this:

Lamp attachTo [Car,[0,0,0], "vez"];

Lamp setDir 180; Lamp setPos getPos vez;

 

I have tried some variants but the light does not follow the turrets movement, it just points at the cars direction... 

Anyone know how to solve this?

 

Many thanks!

Try this in debug console

MRAP = "I_MRAP_03_hmg_F" createVehicle position player;
light = "Land_PortableLight_single_F" createVehicle [0,0,0];
light attachTo [MRAP, [0,0,0], "vez"];  
addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame", {
	light setVectorDirAndUp [
		(MRAP selectionPosition "otochlaven") vectorFromTo (MRAP selectionPosition "pohon"), 
		[0,0,1]
	];
}];
setDate [4804,7,13,0,0];
player moveInGunner MRAP;
player switchCamera "EXTERNAL";

I tested ur code in debug console but the light is not moving with turrets movement.

try on dev branch or replace eachframe eh with oneachframe

I took a Draw3D EH with ur code and it worked very well...

MRAP = "I_MRAP_03_hmg_F" createVehicle position player;
light = "Land_PortableLight_single_F" createVehicle [0,0,0];
light attachTo [MRAP, [0,0,0], "vez"];  
addMissionEventHandler ["Draw3D", {
	light setVectorDirAndUp [
		(MRAP selectionPosition "otochlaven") vectorFromTo (MRAP selectionPosition "pohon"), 
		[0,0,1]
	];
}];
setDate [4804,7,13,0,0];
player moveInGunner MRAP;
player switchCamera "EXTERNAL";

Amazing! Thanks!

:love:

 

 

 

* Hmm it works just perfect on the I_MRAP_03_hmg_F

But when i try the same setup on a B_APC_Tracked_01_CRV_F ,the light is out of place

I dont think i understand the logic... Can someone please explain?

 

 

Where C_11 is the bobcat and SearchLight2 is the light

SearchLight2 attachTo [C_11, [0,0,0], "vez"];   
addMissionEventHandler ["Draw3D", { 
 SearchLight2 setVectorDirAndUp [ 
  (C_11 selectionPosition "otochlaven") vectorFromTo (C_11 selectionPosition "pohon"),  
  [0,0,1] 
 ]; 
}];

Seems vehicles may be using different axis and turret selections , this seems to work a little better for the  B_APC_Tracked_01_CRV_F  but the light seems to lean back a bit.

SearchLight2 attachTo [C_11, [0,0,0.3], "OsaVeze"];     
addMissionEventHandler ["Draw3D", {   
 SearchLight2 setVectorDirAndUp [   
  (C_11 selectionPosition "usti hlavne") vectorFromTo (C_11 selectionPosition "OsaHlavne"),    
  [0,0,1]   
 ];   
}];
