customchat and this list

[Purzel 35]

hello,
I´m not good at scripting.
I want to fire a trigger when BLUFOR is in range to send a customchat only to the players (alpha1, 2, etc.) which are inside the trigger area.

 

So I tried this:

mySuperCoolRadio = radioChannelCreate [[0.96, 0.34, 0.13, 0.8], "Radio", "Reporter", [alpha1,alpha2]];   // to be continued
alpha1 customChat [mySuperCoolRadio, "I´m glad you´re here, they would have killed us!"];

so far so good, this will give me a customchat to all listed players (alpha1,2,3,up to 6 teams with each 10 players.).

So here´s the question:

Can I change the trigger and the customchat to be only seen by the players, which are inside the trigger area?
I thought about something with _x thislist... but I can´t get it working...
I want to use it as a "spoken word", because I dont´t want to get the mission too big with sounddata and say3d-stuff.

mySuperCoolRadio = radioChannelCreate [[0.96, 0.34, 0.13, 0.8], "Radio", "Reporter", [something with thislist]]; 

If there are 60 players, only the nearest players (inside area-trigger) should be able to hear the message...

Any help is appreciated...

thisList is an array,

radioChannelCreate requires an array of units to be added upon creation of the channel.

so you could do : 

mySuperCoolRadio = radioChannelCreate [[0.96, 0.34, 0.13, 0.8], "Radio", "Reporter",thisList]; 

in the activation. This would add the current players in the trigger area at the time of activation.

ok... THX!

 

But it does not work, when I put your code into a script (.sqf)
Your code goes into the script,

but do I have to put something more into the trigger fields?

 

 

just BLUFOR present

condition "this"

activation: Link to the script.sqf

it needs to be passed into the script:

[thisList] call compile preProcessfile "MyCoolLister.sqf";

in the script you an utilize it like this:

params["_list"];
{
sytemChat format["%1",_x]; 
} forEach _list;
