Task connected to an object

[sunnyizaki 10]

I have been trying to create a mission where a task will be activated if the player picks up a file. However, I have not been able to activate the task. Can anyone give me any ideas?

Believe or not i am currently working on exactly that event.

With help from our forum i was able to get this working.

Ok, Thanks... Do reply if you succeed in it.

 i am already.

In my case its very complex makes Intel files for many objectives and tasks. Do you need it for one file only and one task?

Its MP or SP?. Write something more about.

I've got this.
So when you pickup the file do you use deleteVehicle *file* ?
If so then use isNull *file* as the condition for the task.

Merry Christmas and happy mission making :)

I use this

intel_1 removeAction 0;
intel_1 addAction ["Pick up intel", "deletevehicle intel_1; some code blah blah;", nil, 6, true, true, "", "true", 3];

to spawn a function with the task and it works fine for me.

Yes thats easy way, but we can get an Intel  diary record and create task when documents read.

Well, I didn't want a diary record in my case but if you need one, you can just create it manually.

1-2 files on dedicated server

Do these files exist on map or need to be spawned?
