How to simultaneously check 2 arrays via foreach..?

[Blitzen88 18]

 

Im trying to figure out how I can utilize foreach on two different arrays at the same time while filtering the results.

 

I'm trying to apply the targetKnowledge command to all enemy and friendly units:

 

Quote

_EnemyUnits = allUnits select { playerside getFriend side _x <= 0.6};

 

_FriendlyUnits = allUnits select  {side _x isEqualto playerside};

 

{

 

_KnowledgeArray = _x targetKnowledge _EnemyUnits // Here is my issue. I need to check all friendly units against all enemy units

 

//Filter Enemy units that meet certain criteria:

 

_KnownbyGroup = _KnowledgeArray select 0;

                  

_KnownbyUnit = _KnowledgeArray select 1;

                  

_LastSeen = _KnowledgeArray select 2;

 

if (_KnownbyGroup || _KnownbyUnit && _LastSeen < 30) then {

                  

_x (ie enemy unit) pushback _KnownEnemyUnits

};

 

}foreach _Friendly Un

You need to use nested loops:

{
    _FriendlyUnit = _x;

    {
        _KnowledgeArray = _FriendlyUnit targetKnowledge _x;

        ...
    } forEach _EnemyUnits;

    ...
} forEach _FriendlyUnits;

    ...
} forEach _FriendlyUnits;

 

Would this stuff:

 

_KnownbyGroup = _KnowledgeArray select 0;

                  

_KnownbyUnit = _KnowledgeArray select 1;

                  

_LastSeen = _KnowledgeArray select 2;

 

Go before or after the targetknowledge command? I dint know which bracket/scope it goes in

Since _KnowledgeArray is returned by targetKnowledge, its elements must obviously be accessed after this array is returned.

I guess, should it go after } foreach _EnemyUnits or before } foreach _FriendlyUnits?

What is the purpose of your script and what is the ideal data format you'd like to return for that (an array of arrays, a long array of...)?

Inside nested forEach, at the same scope.

I was trying to “fix” the Marta Module by creating and removing groupicons based off of targetknowlegde. I think Marta uses Knowsabout.
