Can I use sendSimpleCommand to AI vehicle?

[POLPOX 778]

title is all.

I'm trying to backward an AI vehicle so I tested the command few times but there isn't a good result.

Anyone help?

What seems to be the problem? It's as simple as:

myCar sendSimpleCommand "BACK";

Was the player in the vehicle?  The wiki says in Arma 3 you don't always have to be in the vehicle, but doesn't state when that's needed.  You used:

vehicleName sendSimpleCommand "BACK";

How did you run that command?

He corectly named vehicle - on my editor it not working too, I try it on cars but only engine started and than nothing happen - I tried all other commands like left/right/fast  etc. and nothing,  but is solution for that case of course only for land vehicles beacouse BIS limiting some features for ARMA to prevent do it like in VBS.

 

try this:   

vehicle setDriveOnPath [getpos vehicle,[0,0,0,3]];

The wiki says that this command cannot be executed if only the driver is in the vehicle. So we need to increase the manpower and use setEffectiveCommander

to set it as the commander. Pay special attention to the need to try members in different positions (such as tanks, the actual commander may be the gunner, only in this way can the order be executed).
