deleteAt error in script

[sizraide 4]

Hello, deleteAt doesn't work in this for loop I typed.

I want it to work when the the player performs the hold action, the hold action will delete the variable from the array.

you can't delete from _deadUnits because it's a local variable (And therefore doesn't exist in other scripts). but if you change it from _deadUnits to deadUnits in your code it should work because  then it's a global variable

private _deadUnits = [dead1,dead2,dead3,dead4,dead5,dead6,dead7];

{
  [
    _x,
    "Check pulse",
    "",
    "",
    "true",
    "true",
    {titleText ["<t align = 'center' shadow = '2' color='#ffffff' size='1.5' font='PuristaMedium' >Checking pulse...</t>", "PLAIN DOWN", -1, true, true];},
    {},
    {
      titleText ["<t align = 'center' shadow = '2' color='#ffffff' size='1.5' font='PuristaMedium' >No pulse detected.</t>", "PLAIN DOWN", -1, true, true];
      titleFadeOut 2;
    },
    {},
    [""],
    3.5,
    0,
    true,
    false
  ] call bis_fnc_holdActionAdd
} forEach _deadUnits;

 

NOTE: removeCompleted is set to true, you don't need to deleteAt in the _deadUnits array for this purpose.

How can I make it when the players checked all the dead units something executes?

You can use the global variable like gc8 wrote so the variable is workable in any other script on the PC.

or use the arguments. That should looks like:

 

private _deadUnits = [dead1,dead2,dead3,dead4,dead5,dead6,dead7];
{
  [
    _x,
    "Check pulse",
    "",
    "",
    "true",
    "true",
    {titleText ["<t align = 'center' shadow = '2' color='#ffffff' size='1.5' font='PuristaMedium' >Checking pulse...</t>", "PLAIN DOWN", -1, true, true];},
    {},
    {
      titleText ["<t align = 'center' shadow = '2' color='#ffffff' size='1.5' font='PuristaMedium' >No pulse detected.</t>", "PLAIN DOWN", -1, true, true];
      titleFadeOut 2;
      _deadUnits = _this #3#0;
      _deadUnits deleteAt (_deadUnits find _target);
      if (_deadUnits isEqualTo []) then {hint "all are dead!"}  
    },
    {},
    [_deadUnits],
     3.5,
     0,
     true,
     false
   ] call bis_fnc_holdActionAdd
 } forEach _deadUnits

NOTE: in MP, you will have to publicVariable the array: deadUnits

Appreciate it!
