Requesting Help with Vehicle Scanning

[KutPax 0]

Hi there,

I'm working on a script which detects all Air vehicles in a specific radius of a specific object, which then either results with a true which displays a hint saying "Vehicle in a 25m Radius!", or when it's false it will display a hint saying "There's no vehicle in a 25m radius!".

I also want to implement the ACE Cargo Framework into this, to be specific, [object, vehicle] call ace_cargo_fnc_loadItem, where object is going to refer to the array of the vehicle which is inside of the 25m radius (_x or something, I'm not too familiar with array's).

If there's anyone who reads this who has knowledge in this area, please do let me know!

Cheers.

you can use nearEntities command for that

 

_list = player nearEntities ["Air", 25];

It does not seem to want to recognise any air vehicle with "Air", any idea why?

too short radius? player is the center pos

I'm trying to get the radius from the point of an object with variable PositionSkeet

put that instead of player then

This is what I've got now:

 

if ( _ctrl2 lbText ( lbCurSel _ctrl2 ) isEqualTo "Test Listbox Item 1" ) exitwith 
{
    _nearestAirVeh = nearestObject [testskeet1, "Air"] select 0;

    if (!isNil _nearestAirVeh) then {
        hint "No Heli near testskeet1";
    }
    else
    {
        hint "Heli Found near testskeet1";
        [myObjectVarHere, _x] call ace_cargo_fnc_loadItem;
    };
};

Only I'm getting the following error:
error select: Type Object, expected Array.String,Config entry

couple errors there, updated code:

 

if ( _ctrl2 lbText ( lbCurSel _ctrl2 ) isEqualTo "Test Listbox Item 1" ) exitwith 
{
    _nearestAirVeh = nearestObject [testskeet1, "Air"];

    if (isNull _nearestAirVeh) then {
        hint "No Heli near testskeet1";
    }
    else
    {
        hint "Heli Found near testskeet1";
        [myObjectVarHere, _x] call ace_cargo_fnc_loadItem;
    };
};

 

note: the ace line looks buggy

Works like a charm, cheers!
