How to get list of all groups/vehicles/units on map on mouse click or mouse over

[coder4crack 10]

Hi,

 

I would like some help getting a list of all friendly enemygroups on the map when i mouse over (using ctrlMapMouseOver), or get info pertaining to the group when I mouse click.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Thanks, but this is not what I needed an answer for.

 

I just need to get the friendly group/object under cursor.

You mean performing this while in Zeus?

Easier than I thought...

 

onGroupIconClick

{ // Passed values for _this are: _is3D = _this select 0; _group = _this select 1; _wpID = _this select 2; _RMB = _this select 3; _posx = _this select 4; _posy = _this select 5; _shift = _this select 6; _ctrl = _this select 7; _alt = _this select 8; _message = format ["____ Info ____"]; {_message = _message + format ["\n %1",_x]} forEach _this; hint _message; }

I do no want to use this script as this does not serve my porpose.

 

I tried this:

 

onMapSingleClick  

{ 

       _cords = (findDisplay 12 displayCtrl 51)   ctrlMapScreenToWorld getMousePosition; 

      _object =  nearestObject _cords;  

      hint str _object;                 

}

 

and it workd for a while, but the instant I select a group from high command, and set it a waypoint, when I click the group's vicinity, i will now get NOID!!

 

is this some sort of undiscovered arma 3 bug??

 

Is there awork around?
