Is there a way to add vehicle passengers in config.cpp?

[fat_lurch 337]

Hello,

 

As stated in the title: I'm looking for ways to add/define passengers to a vehicle in the config.cpp. (not after init, e.g. not moveInCargo). 

 

Example: a transport helicopter pre-loaded with infantry to act as a QRF. 

 

Thanks in advance for any help!

 

For reference: I wound up searching for answers to anyway I could think of phrasing this question online for about an hour before posting this. I also went through some BID sample config. I'm fearing this may not be possible, but I'm hoping someone knows the magic for this.

It's been a while since I've done faction and vehicle configs, but I think you are looking for the typicalCargo entry.

Thanks for the tip @Gilatar,

 

I tried adding this line to a custom RHS HMMWV and Mi-8 with no luck. I tried a few variations:

 

typicalCargo[] = {"Soldier", "Soldier"};

typicalCargo[] = {"myCustomClassname", "myCustomClassname"};  //Where myCustomClassname is the actual class name of one of my infantry configs

 

I've also tried adding 1-5 soldiers in case the number of units was somehow the issue.

 

Can anyone expand upon this?

 

Thanks

Info:

You can set a Variable to your spawned unit and see the remover code up ,

in order not everything to get deleted.

 

 

The most of the code is from my GF Missions Script ,

 

but i need to update this , as well.

The WIP GF Auto Population Script - Mod is ready but i'm still making some tests and adjustments.

 

I hope that i helped you ! 

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4207]

i just notice in config.cpp well...

[fat_lurch 337]

Thanks GF!

Here is a simple script spawning vehicles & units for a group, and move units in free cargo (the vehicles spawn with their crew anyway, using bis_fnc_spawnGroup)

  For "_i" from 0 to (round random 30 max 8) do {

  };
  _grp = [ getMarkerPos "spawnHere", side player,_spawnGrp,[],[],[],[],[],180,false] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;
