Complete task (activate trigger) after assembling uav drone?

Im trying to have a task succeed after assembling a ar-2 darter drone, wats the best way to accomplish this?

Probably not the best way but couldn't think of anything better. Have a trigger with following condition:

!isNull (nearestObject [getPos player, "B_UAV_01_F"])

It will fire when nearestObject for player is the Darter. If you have more drones of the same type that are already assembled near player, this will trigger too soon.

In trigger's On Activation field put whatever you need to change your task's status to completed.

You can also solve it with an event handler, which may save performance every so slightly.

player addEventHandler ["WeaponAssembled", {
    params ["_unit", "_staticWeapon"];
    
if (typeOf _staticWeapon == "B_UAV_01_F") then {
_tskUAV setTaskState "Succeeded";
 };

  }];

See syntax examples Event Handlers and  setTaskState.
