DATA TERMINAL TASK

[black_hawk_mw2_87 74]

Hello, everyone!

I am trying to create a task for my current mission using the data terminal (Land_DataTerminal_01_F) from Things/Military in the Eden editor. I am using a script in object's init field that automatically creates a task which Title and Description can be modified inside the script. This is the script I have used:

 

MGITerminal1 = this;
[MGITerminal1,"red","orange","green"] call BIS_fnc_dataTerminalColor;
MGITerminal1 addAction ["Activate terminal",{
MGITerminal1 removeAction (_this select 2);
MGITerminal1 spawn {
   [_this,3] call BIS_fnc_dataTerminalAnimate;
   sleep 10;
   firstTask = ["task0", true, ["Description here","Title here",""],nil, "ASSIGNED", 0, true, true,"",true] call BIS_fnc_setTask;
  [MGITerminal1,0] call BIS_fnc_dataTerminalAnimate
}
}];

What I want to do is create a completed task using Create Task - Succeeded or Set Task State and a connected trigger that checks if the data terminal has been used or if I have interacted with the object itself that can be named for this purpose. Do you have any suggestions? Perhaps that could be a script that checks if another object is alive. I have used such scripts already, but how can I make it happen using one of these methods or anything else? Thank you in advance.

How would this look like? :) I am trying to imagine that, but how about step by step? :)

["task0", "SUCCEEDED"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;

 

Put that line below  }];  in the above script. May want to add a sleep.

sleep 5; //pauses before succeeding the task.

["task0", "SUCCEEDED"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;

 

Hope I'm understanding you right.
