Horrible with scirpts and such

[Papa n3rf 0]

Hello I am REALLY bad at doing scripts, I tried looking for a way to add a custom alarm to and object that will be able to set off via scroll wheel by anyone... I could really use some help.

Wrong subForum. Try mission editing and scripting. 

 

Assuming you know what to do with the script and it being for multiplayer you could use this: 

//Change object to whatever you want to have the action on
[object,["Start Alarm","alarm.sqf"]] remoteExec ["addAction",0]; 

//Make a file called "Alarm.sqf" and put in your mission
playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\alarm_independent.wss", object]; 

Good luck!

He wants an action to set it off not to start it.

 

This should do the job

// put this in the init of your object

_dummy = "#particlesource" createVehicle (getPos this);
playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\alarm_independent.wss", _dummy];

this addAction ["Stop the alarm", { deleteVehicle _dummy; }];

"Setting something off" is english for "triggering something" or "starting something"

 

See https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/set+off

Yes, I meant "turn off". Thanks for the correction
