AddEventHandler to Classname-Object

[Alert23 215]

Hi everyone,

i have already wasted some time in this script..

trying to addeventhandler to every object in mission by its classname,

i want to create an disappearing effect when a target is hit.

adding eventhandler by naming the object works but i have to many objects on the map to add them all manually

[] spawn { 
 
{ 
  	if (typeOf _x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F") then {  
   		_x addEventHandler ["HitPart", {  
		playSound "hitplate";    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.2;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.2;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject true;   
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.02;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.03;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.01;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		deletevehicle _x;
			}]; 
  		}; 
 	}; 
};

this dosent throw any error but also dosent work. what i do wrong?

Few problems:

• The spawn takes no argument, so _x means nothing in the spawn
• You cannot use sleep inside an Event Handler, use spawn inside
• _x in HitPart Event Handler means nothing. I think you want (_this#0#0)

thanks for your advise, maybe something like this i rly dont know what im doing 😃

if (typeOf _x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F") then {  
   		_x addEventHandler ["HitPart",{
		(_this select 0) spawn { 
		playSound "hitplate";    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.2;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.2;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.3;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.05;    
		_x hideobject true;   
		sleep 0.1;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.02;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		sleep 0.03;    
		_x hideobject false;    
		sleep 0.01;    
		_x hideobject true;    
		deletevehicle _x;
		};
	}]; 
};

okay so according to what to said than is must be like this if im "right" ( im not =D )

 

{if (typeOf _x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F") then {   
     			_x addEventHandler ["HitPart",{ 
  					(_this select 0 select 0) spawn { params ["_target"]; 
  					playSound "hitplate";     
  					sleep 0.3;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.1;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.2;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.1;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.3;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.2;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.1;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.3;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.05;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.05;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.05;     
  					_target hideobject true;    
  					sleep 0.1;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.02;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					sleep 0.03;     
  					_target hideobject false;     
  					sleep 0.01;     
  					_target hideobject true;     
  					deletevehicle _target; 
  			}; 
  		}];  
  	};
};

but still not working.

what is _x in here?:

{if (typeOf _x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F") then {   
     			_x addEventHandler ["HitPart",{ 

I don't see a definition of it or a loop which magic variable it is.

isent

_x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F"

defined? so like this:

Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F = _x 

_x addEventHandler ["HitPart",{

[sarogahtyp 1109]

this line:

{if (typeOf _x == "Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F") then 

checks if the classname of the OBJECT _x is Land_VR_Target_Dart_01_F

and this line

_x addEventHandler ["HitPart",{ 

applies an event handler to the OBJECT _x.

 

But how knows your script which object is meant? _x has to be an existing object of your mission!

 

EDIT:

maybe your object(s) are simple objects then you could get it with this command:

allSimpleObjects

Example 1 there shows the usage.

 

Also please check the syntax of each command which u try to use in the wiki. there are usage examples and it's always explained which parameters are needed and what the command does or returns.

Especially in ur current script u r using wrong syntax for spawn. check it in the wiki!
