This script makes a plane go to 0km/h in an instant

this addAction ["<t color='#FF0000'>Gravity Break","_veh = _this #0; _veh setvelocity [0 * (sin (getdir _veh )), 0 * (cos (getdir _veh )), 0]", [], 7, true, true, "", "_this == driver _target"];

 

This script should do the same thing, but add a bunch of Effects to make it look cooler and stuff, but it doesnt work for some reason...

This is the script that adds effects:

It works perfectly as a stand alone thing, however when I put it into addaction, it gives me error saying this:

Spoiler

Any idea whats wrong? Why cant I execute it?
I assume it might be too long or smth and I might need to group those scripts together and name them? (making sqf is not an option)

In the addAction script param, you have wrapped your code in double quotes. Use curled brackets. Putting the code in an addAction without necessary adjustments to some variables also broke the code.

Thats it worked nicely
