Oh wow, thank you very much. I am still very early on in learning how to use functions and they still confuse me. I will take a look at implementing this over the next day or two. Stage two of this mission is to switch the hostiles that are alive to defend the base if there are no players within about 200m of the base requiring the players to respawn at a remote location then travel back to the base and retake control before the tower defense continues where it left off but I will work on implementing the above system first.

Larrow 2820 Posted July 10, 2023 18 hours ago, Dramacius said: I am still baffled by params[] Nothing mysterious about params, it basically makes private variables out of the contents of an array. So you have likely done this before... [ player, "someText", 10, getPosATL player ] call TAG_fnc_someFunction; TAG_fnc_someFunction = { _player = _this select 0; _someText = _this select 1; _aNumber = _this select 2; _playerPos = _this select 3; }; ...which is the same as doing... TAG_fnc_someFunction = { params[ "_player", "_someText", "_aNumber", "_playerPos" ]; }; ...if there is no array prior to the params command then it defaults to using _this, which is the default variable in Arma that holds the parameters passed to a function. params also makes the variables private, so it is actually equivalent to... TAG_fnc_someFunction = { private _player = _this select 0; private _someText = _this select 1; private _aNumber = _this select 2; private _playerPos = _this select 3; }; ...then you can make params do error checking for you by stating what the variable will default to if missing or of incorrect type and what type the variable must be e.g STRING, OBJECT, ARRAY etc and if it is an ARRAY how many indices it can have... TAG_fnc_someFunction = { params[ //[ Variable, default, allowed types, array size ] //Variable _player, will default to objNull, must be of type OBJECT [ "_player", objNull, [ objNull ] ], //Variable _someText, will default to "", must be of type STRING [ "_someText", "", [ "" ] ], //Variable _aNumber, will default to 0, must be of type NUMBER [ "_aNumber", 0, [ 0 ] ], //Variable _playerPos, will default to [0,0,0], must be of type array, array can be 2 or 3 in length( position 2D or 3D ) [ "_playerPos", [0,0,0], [ [] ], [ 2, 3 ] ] ]; }; ...you can also state multiple types for the variable as well. Let's say you wanted a function that would return a 3D position for you but could take many different types, in arma we have objects, markers, locations, groups and of course an array that could be 2D or 3D... TAG_fnc_getPosition3D = { // vv all the different types we will allow this variable to be passed params[ [ "_theThing", [0,0,0], [ "", objNull, locationNull, grpNull, [] ], [ 2, 3 ] ] ]; private _position3D = switch ( true ) do { //STRING a marker name case ( _theThing isEqualType "" ) : { getMarkerPos _theThing; }; //OBJECT case ( _theThing isEqualType objNull ) : { getPosATL _theThing; }; //LOCATION case ( _theThing isEqualType locationNull ) : { locationPosition _theThing; }; //GROUP case ( _theThing isEqualType grpNull ) : { getPosATL leader _theThing; }; //ARRAY case ( _theThing isEqualType [] ) : { if ( count _theThing == 2 ) then { _theThing append[ 0 ]; }; _theThing }; }; _position3D }; ...of course, there should be more error checking in there. For example, make sure the STRING is not empty or the GROUP/OBJECT is not null but for clarity, I have left all that out. You will notice in your script that have used params to pull the correct info from your faction data, heres some commented code that explains the concept... Spoiler TAG_fnc_spawnGroup = { params[ [ "_side", east, [ east ] ], //must be passed a side [ "_position", [0,0,0], [ [] ], [ 3 ] ] //must be passed a 3D position ]; //Lets error check the position to make sure the array contains numbers if !( _position isEqualTypeAll 0 ) exitWith { //If not then display error showing passed contents format[ "The array must contain a 3D position: %1", _position ] call BIS_fnc_error; }; _data = [ // [ number of soldiers, array of soldier types ] //East [ 3, [ "O_Soldier_F" ] ], //West [ 2, [ "B_Soldier_F" ] ], //Indep [ 4, [ "I_Soldier_F" ] ] ]; //BIS_fnc_sideID enumerates sides as East = 0, West = 1, Indep = 3 _sideIndex = _side call BIS_fnc_sideID; //Get data for the correct side _sideData = _data select _sideIndex; //If side was West, _sideIndex will be 1, so _sideData will be [ 2, [ "B_Soldier_F" ] ] //Make variables from _sideData _sideData params[ "_numUnits", "_unitTypes" ]; //If side was West, _numUnits will be 2 and _unitTypes will be [ "B_Soldier_F" ] //OR the above as just one line // _data select ( _side call BIS_fnc_sideID ) params[ "_numUnits", "_unitTypes" ]; //Spawn group _group = createGroup[ _side, true ]; for "_i" from 1 to _numUnits do { _type = selectRandom _unitTypes; _unit = _group createUnit[ _type, _position, [], 0, "FORM" ]; }; _group }; 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
