"init" parameter question

[LizardX 0]

Good afternoon,

is there anyone who could help me? I'd like to know how I can use the "caller unit" of the "init" EH in a script. What I mean:

config.cpp:

init = "(_this select 0) exec ""\blabla\script.sqs""";

It works, calls the script. But if try this:

script.sqs:

_vehicle = _this select 0

...

there will be an error, I think because the "init" has no returning variable, it could only be "false" or "true". (???) How could I define the caller unit in the script?

thx

You want to do one of this:

Either:

config.cpp:

init = "(_this select 0) exec ""\blabla\script.sqs""";

script.sqs:

_vehicle = _this

or:

config.cpp:

init = "_this exec ""\blabla\script.sqs""";

script.sqs:

_vehicle = (_this select 0)

The explanation why is left to the reader.

Whoa, thanks, Suma, for the real fast answer. The first one already works (in 95%)! Just one word: have to apply

if () then {} <= look for the different signs!

My shame, it was in the comref, I wasn't smart enough. Holy syntax errors!

Thx again.

Here's some I use:

init="[_this select 0] exec ""\iegf4u\manager.sqs""";

gear = "if (_this Select 1) then {[_this select 0] exec ""\iegf4u\geardn.sqs""} else {[_this select 0] exec ""\iegf4u\gearup.sqs""}";

getin="this animate [""corcanopy"", 1]";

getout="this animate [""corcanopy"", 0]";

They all work

OK, thanks!
