Using Eden IDs in scripts?

Recommended Posts

Is it possible to use the Eden IDs inside scripts? If I want to delete a whole bunch of objects via trigger for instance?

 

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Eden_ID

This Number remains the same even after saving and loading the scenario.

 

-> so this seems to be the "safest" way to do that, but:

_nObject = [0,0,0] nearestObject 123456;

doesnt work(?)

No, Eden IDs are not available during a mission, only during an editing session.

Hm, do you know of any other possibility to quickly select a bunch of placed objects? Can I delete Eden layers via script?

This should work... if your position stays within 50 m of the object (more exactly, the command searches in a 50m radius). so [0,0,0] is not a good place to start a search.

No it does not, using a number with nearestObjects is a map object ID not an Eden object ID. Two totally different things.

Plus using map IDs is not advised( hence the reason they where removed from viewing in Eden ) as they can possibly change at any game update.
