How to get an array of classnames of units?

[retarded tryhard 0]

Hi!

I'm working on an AI spawning script where it randomly selects from an array of units to create, and I want the array to include all the units from loaded mods instead of just vanilla units. Is there anyway to implement this? Are there any commands that can scan the game file and return such an array?

configClasses is what you want.

I'm looking at this now, seems promising. Thx.

 _getClasses = { 
 
  params ["_faction", "_array"]; 
  _array = []; 
   
  { 
   if ((configName _x) isKindoF "CAManBase") then { 
    _array pushback (configName _x); 
   }; 
  } forEach ("getText (_x >> 'faction') == _faction" configClasses (configfile >> "CfgVehicles")); 
   
  _array 
 };

["blu_F"] call _getClasses;

Change "blu_F" to any faction you want,

 

or for many factions of defined side:

	_getsideFactions = {
	
		params ["_side", "_array"];
		
		_array = [];
		{
			_array pushback	(configName _x);
		} forEach ("getNumber (_x >> 'side') isEqualTo _side" configClasses (configfile >> "CfgFactionClasses"));
		
		_array
	}; 

	_getClasses = {

		params ["_faction", "_array"];
		_array = [];
		
		{
			if ((configName _x) isKindoF "CAManBase") then {
				_array pushback	(configName _x);
			};
		} forEach ("getText (_x >> 'faction') == _faction" configClasses (configfile >> "CfgVehicles"));
		
		_array
	};

	_factions = [1] call _getsideFactions; //0 = east, 1 = west, 2= IND, 3 = civ
	_allunitsofside = [];
	{
				
		_factionunits = [_x] call _getClasses;
		_allunitsofside = _allunitsofside + _factionunits;
	} forEach _factions;
