zagor64bz 1225 Posted April 4, 2018 As the title suggest, I set up few leaflets with custom texture to be inspected by the player. How can I make this a task condition, so when you read all the leaflet a task is succeeded? You can't really pick them up, so the usual !alive is not applicable. Any help appreciated, thanks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JD Wang 351 Posted April 5, 2018 I asked a similar question on discord a couple of weeks ago. I'd placed a map on the wall and use the inspect function so that when the players looked at the map inspecting it would show intel on the mission they had to carry out, but then I wanted it to assign a task once they had done that. From what I gather there's no EH or anything that you can tap into to find out if a player has actually inspected the leaflets Hopefully that's not the case as that would make a much better way of dealing with intel.

Great, but how do I add a custom texture to that? Right now this is what I have in the init of the leaflet: ["init", [this, "myCustomimage.jpg", "Text message"]] call BIS_fnc_initLeaflet Thank you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can add it by setObjectTextureGlobal (I guess) or in Eden attributes (object specific). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Larrow 2801 Posted April 5, 2018 30 minutes ago, BadHabitz said: MP dedicated server capable? Can be if handled correctly. Of course the BIS_fnc_initLeaflet will need to be added to each client, as with all things action orientated. The event will also need to be added on each client, but once it fires BIS_fnc_taskSetState will set the tasks state globally (if the tasks targets requires it).

Untested and yes I have been overcautious with the use of toLower so as no mistakes can be made. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
