A simple script that makes player able to capture fleeing enemies

[Ibragim A 148]

Literally the script works like this:

Each enemy unit receives a suppression event handler. If the enemy flees and get a certain value of suppression, he drops his weapon and surrenders. Then player can approach the surrendered enemy and take him as a captive using the hold menu.

PC_script_captive_system =
	{	
		params ["_units",["_fleeing_coef", 0.5],["_suppression_coef", 0.8]];
		
		{
			_x allowFleeing _fleeing_coef; 
			
			_x addEventHandler ["Suppressed", 
				{
					params ["_unit", "_distance", "_shooter", "_instigator", "_ammoObject", "_ammoClassName", "_ammoConfig"];
					
					if (!(fleeing _unit) || !(isNull objectParent _unit)) exitWith {};
					
					if (getSuppression _unit < _suppression_coef) exitWith {};
					 
					/// Get down and surrender:
					
					0 = [_unit] spawn

								{

Array (missionNamespace getVariable ["PC_captives", []]) returns everyone captured by the player.

I like it!  Good work dude!👍

The panic animation is very moody. It is easy to apply, but difficult to disable. I'm sure there are animation gurus here who could look at the script and change the animations in it to smoother ones.
