Set var on unit for trigger condition

[HotosHideout 1]

I've created a public variable and set it in the init file of my mission.

BOB = true; publicvariable "BOB";

 

I'm trying to set the var on several (but not all) playable units as a constant. This way a trigger can be activated when any unit with that var walks or drives into the trigger. I've tried all sorts of different conditions but I cant seem to find the right one. Even if I have to check the units variable individually then I will. I can't seem to get the syntax correct.   

To sum it up, I need help with the syntax on both the init for the unit and the condition of the trigger.

trigger:

Type: None

Activation: Anybody

Activation type: Present

 

unit init field:

this setVariable ["bob",true,false];

 

trigger condition:

this && {!(thisList select {_x getVariable ["bob",false]} isEqualTo [])}

1: You don't need to make it "global" (nor publicVariable , neither true as last param of setVariable). init field are run on all PCs.

2: use anyPlayer

3 if you need to trigger on each "bob" player, not only the first one, you need to "rearm" it.
