Thank u guys for ur time and help :)

this setVariable["bis_disabled_Door_1",1,true]; this addAction ["Tür aufbrechen", "test.sqf",[this,player]];

 

 

test.sqf:

_tuer=_this select 3 select 0;
_unit=_this select 3 select 1;


_items = items _unit;

//if (["ToolKit"] in backpackItems _player) then {
if ("ToolKit" in _items) then {

	_tuer setVariable["bis_disabled_Door_1",0,true];
	hint "Das Schloss ist geknackt";
}

}

};

 

Not a scripter or an expert, but those "//" before 

if (["ToolKit"] in backpackItems _player) then {
if ("ToolKit" in _items) then {

	_tuer setVariable["bis_disabled_Door_1",0,true];
	hint "Das Schloss ist geknackt";
}

are for? Usually the void the whole line of code after them.

2nd: it's unclear the ""if/then""part of the script.

There are 2 "if" without the "then" ending correctly IMO.

 

if (["ToolKit"] in backpackItems _player) then { if? ("ToolKit" in _items) then { _tuer setVariable["bis_disabled_Door_1",0,true]; hint "Das Schloss ist geknackt"; }

 

Try erasing "{ if? ("ToolKit" in _items) then " from the middle and see if it work.

Again, not an expert, but something isn't right there.

Your if statement looks fine to me.  Run your mission from the editor, hit escape and paste the following into one of the debug variables and see what is returned.  Do you see "Toolkit" in the array of returned items?

items player

 

[pierremgi 4840]

Yes, check your items as JBoy said.

 

Passing such parameters:

- player which is already the caller in addAction,

- and <this> which is already the target (house)

has no sense here.

this setVariable["bis_disabled_Door_1",1,true]; this addAction ["Tür aufbrechen", "test.sqf"];

 

test.sqf:

params ["_tuer","_unit"];
if ("ToolKit" in items _unit) then {
  _tuer setVariable ["bis_disabled_Door_1",0,true];

  hint "Das Schloss ist geknackt";

} else{

  hint "Du hast kein Werkzeug";

};

Alternatively you can expand upon this:

 

 

 

Should have the functionality covered and get you started.

😜Damn....this is what's happen when you take a break  from Arma , even a short one. Looks like I opened my mouth before connecting it to the brain. Sorry!!!!!

 

Ps: Could my previous post pass for an April fool thing? 

OK..OK..I shut up!!!

I'm not sure if this is an April Fool's Day trick or what but the 2 forward slashes (//) indicate a comment. Specifically that kind of comment will cause the rest of the line to be ignored.

All comments are removed during preprocessing before the sqf is run, so, in effect, the scripting engine never sees them

From what I can tell he just comments out the first if line, maybe to switch around for testing purposes, no idea.

As i mentioned above, i notice that as well, and was wondering the same thing.That's where I got confused with the double "if" statement.....probably as @Grumpy Old Man mentioned, he just left it in for testing purposes.

Guys, I know what a comment is. My post was actually specifically for you, zagor, in reference to this earlier post. But if anyone else reads this and learns what a comment is, that's good too

 

EDIT: I guess I didn't really understand the rest of your earlier post the first time I read it, but yes, what you're describing is exactly what he did
