I can't execute a sqf on a specific daytime

[SOVIET_IDIOT 2]

I'm trying to use the Dynamic AI Spawn System script to execute every time the mission is on a specific daytime.

 

I tried using this:

 

if (daytime >= 12) then
{
execVM "DynamicAISpawn.sqf";
};

 

It doesn't work. Can anybody help?

You have loop?

[SOVIET_IDIOT 2]

No, I don't have loop.

Well you certainly need a loop:
 

while { true } do
{


if (daytime >= 12) exitWith // Exit loop
{
execVM "DynamicAISpawn.sqf";
};


sleep 2;
};

It gives me "Error missing )" line 5

It works now. Thank you very much, sir.

For a single event, you don't need a loop:

0 = [] spawn {

  waitUntil {sleep 5; dayTime > 12};

  your code

};

 

If your mission lasts for several days (acceleration time or else), you need a loop and certainly not exit it:

0 = [] spawn {

  while {true} do {

    waitUntil {sleep 2; dayTime > 12};

    your code

    waitUntil {sleep 2; dayTime <= 12};

  };

};

Does skiptime affects the loop? I tried skipping it a day it won't repeat.

I decrease the sleep time....from 5 to 2.   It's just because you're testing without waiting the condition meets the code. let waituntil works.
