lol, missed reading that 😄

Thanks @Dedmen

Get all markers with players in <_markerdist distance to it.

private _activeMarkers = _markers select {
    private _markerPos = getmarkerpos _x;

    //Get all players inside circle of _markerdist radius around _markerPos
    //_markerdist might need to be halfed here, didn't use inAreaArray before
    private _playersInArea = allPlayers inAreaArray [_markerPos, _markerdist, _markerdist];
    count _playersInArea > 0
};

 

 

Thank you, exactly what I needed!

Is it possible to make a "allPlayers" check instead of the "player" with this code? Like Allplayers findif etc.

_distanceMarkers = _markers apply {[player distance getmarkerpos _x, _x]};

I don't quite know what you want?

_distanceMarkers = [];
{
    private _marker = _x;
    _distanceMarkers append (allPlayers apply {[_x distance getmarkerpos _marker, _marker, _x]})
} forEach _markers;

distanceMarkers now contains distances for all players, and all markers.

My script looks like this now.

_markers =  ["A1","A2","A3","A4","A5","A6","A7","A8","A9"];

_markerdist = 400;

while {true} do {

_distanceMarkers = [];
{
private _marker = _x;
_distanceMarkers append (allPlayers apply {[_x distance getmarkerpos _marker, _marker, _x]})
} forEach _markers;

_distanceMarkers sort true;

_marker = (_distanceMarkers select 0) select 1;

_markerPosition = (_distanceMarkers select 0) select 0;

if (_markerPosition < _markerdist) then {

[getmarkerpos _marker] call Wise_fnc_Ambushai;   

waitUntil {sleep 5; allPlayers findIf {(_x distance2d getmarkerpos _marker) < 500} ==-1};

};

sleep 5;

};

Just check this a little bit , because , this way it will activate even for the dead players since

Would you recommend doing something like this?

 

_ap = allPlayers;

 

_Aliveplayers = _ap select {alive _x};

 

Would it work?

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4206]

_allPlayers = (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F") select {alive _x};

this can be also with different ways.

Thank you @GEORGE FLOROS GR.

 

Since i'm using this waitUntil {sleep 5; allPlayers findIf in few more scripts, maybe i should be using this that i found in one of the bohemias mission.

onPlayerRespawn.sqf

_null = (_this select 1) execVM "Scripts\BuryCorpse.sqf";

BuryCorpse.sqf

_body = _this;

waitUntil {sleep 1; {(_x distance _body) < 25} count allPlayers == 0};

deleteVehicle _body;

That should do it, removing the dead players near those allPlayers findIf positions.

I'm rarely using execVM so gonna make it a function instead since it will be activating alot, or if it would work just putting the code inside the onPlayerRespawn.sqf.

No you shouldn't.

This is useless and makes no sense.

this always iterates through all players, even if the condition is already true for the first player thats checked. findIf exists at the first hit, thus being way more efficient.

Thanks for the help @Dedmen

Try :

( and maybe add some sleep also )

initplayerlocal.sqf

player addEventHandler ["Killed", {
	params ["_unit", "_killer", "_instigator", "_useEffects"];
	_unit  = _this select 0;
    _pos = getPosATL _unit;
    _holder = nearestObjects [_pos, ["WeaponHolder", "groundWeaponHolder", "WeaponHolderSimulated"], 2];
    {
        deleteVehicle _x;
    }forEach _holder + [_unit];
}];

This work great @Dedmen I just have one question. Is it possible to make it exclude players in air so it won't activate.

private _markers =  ["A1","A2","A3","A4","A5","A6","A7","A8","A9"];

private _markerdist = 400;

_allPlayers = (allPlayers - entities "HeadlessClient_F") select {alive _x};

while {true} do {

_distanceMarkers = [];
{
private _marker = _x;
_distanceMarkers append (_allPlayers apply {[_x distance getmarkerpos _marker, _marker, _x]})
} forEach _markers;

_distanceMarkers sort true;

_marker = (_distanceMarkers select 0) select 1;

_markerPosition = (_distanceMarkers select 0) select 0;

if (_markerPosition < _markerdist) then {

[getmarkerpos _marker] spawn Ambushai;   

waitUntil {sleep 5; _allPlayers findIf {(_x distance2d getmarkerpos _marker) < 500} ==-1};

};

sleep 5;

};

only players below height of 20m

Did not work, it still activated fnc if in air and above 100meters.

Ah yeah. I only did that check once, outside of the while loop. Ofc thats not gonna work. I'm too tired to think I shouldn't post here.

 

As KK said..
But I wonder whether this works.. replacing the _allPlayers variable like this, but not modifying the original (the private is important)

while {true} do {
private _allPlayers = _allPlayers unitsBelowHeight 20;

 

[Robustcolor 30]

For anyone using this script i added this code at the top, makes it only check for alive players and below height 20.

 

The isEqualTo stops the script from running if no players is found. So no errors.

private _markers =  ["A1","A2","A3","A4","A5","A6","A7","A8","A9","A10","A11","A12","A13","A14","A15"];

private _markerdist = 350;

while {true} do {

private _allPlayers = (allPlayers - alldeadmen unitsBelowHeight 20);

if !(_allPlayers isEqualTo []) then {
