Createveh woes

[ravennx 0]

Ok guys... im looking to create a veh or object.

Ive got a script.. but what i want is it to Create at my exact position and Face the way the player is facing.

It creates usally in a random pos and not the same way player is facing.

Also Can I give these created veh names in the script somewhere.

Thanks for the help.

deletevehicle m2;

player playMove "AinvPknlMstpSlayWrflDnon_medic";

sleep 3.0;

WaitUntil {animationState player != "AinvPknlMstpSlayWrflDnon_medic"};

_mark = format["%M2StaticMG",(name player)];

deleteMarker _mark;

m2 = "M2StaticMG" createVehicle (position player);

m2 setdir (getdir player);

m2 addEventHandler ["killed", {handle = [_this select 0] execVM "scripts\bury.sqf"}];

_pos = position m2tent;

_mssg = format["%1's M2 Static",(name player)];

_medmark = createMarker [_mark, _pos];

_medmark setMarkerShape "ICON";

_medmark setMarkerType "Marker";

_medmark setMarkerColor "ColorredAlpha";

_medmark setMarkerText _mssg;

_medmark setMarkerSize [0.5, 0.5];

_medmark setMarkerDir 45;

exit

Try something like this:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">m2=ObjNull;

m2 = "M2StaticMG" createVehicle [0,0,-1000];

WaitUntil {!(IsNull m2)};

m2 setdir (getdir player);

M2 SetPos (Player ModelToWorld [2,0,0]);

You are already, at least the global variable you are assigning it to is m2.

If you want to give each one a unique variable, then the simplest way is use some sort of global counter. So the code could look like this instead:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">If ((TypeName "M2Count")!="SCALAR") Then

       {

       M2Count=0;

       }

       Else

       {

       M2Count=M2Count+1;

       };

_CurrM2=ObjNull;

_CurrM2="M2StaticMG" createVehicle [0,0,-1000];

WaitUntil {!(IsNull _CurrM2)};

_CurrM2 setdir (GetDir player);

_CurrM2 SetPos (Player ModelToWorld [2,0,0]);

[_CurrM2] Call Compile Format ["M2%1=(_This Select 0)",M2Count]

So now each M2 will be assign to variables M20,M21,M22....M25 and so on.
