UserAction - Condition - identifying the user

[[aps]gnat 28]

Hi all,

Trying to ensure that the user of a UserAction is not for example in the vehicle.

"this" is the vehicle, but I'm not aware of any way to refer to the "user" other than referencing "player"

EG;

Quote[/b] ] condition="this animationPhase ""cargodoor_down"" < 0.9 AND Alive(this) AND (getpos this select 2) > 20 AND !(Player in this)";

Its unsuitable for AI (seems so from testing), so how to I capture "user" instead of "player" ?

Here is an example of a UserAction that only is avliable to a player inside the vehicle. Even if a player is currenlty in the vehicle any players outside won't be able to use it, because it is only avaliable to the person/people inside.

Hope it helps, although I am not modder by any means what so ever.

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

class CfgVehicles

{

class Air

{

class UserActions

{

class Display_Action

{

displayName = " ... ";

OnlyForPlayer = true;

position = "window";

default = false;

radius = 10;

condition = "player in this;";

statement = " ... ";

};

};

};

};

And I don't think you can get around the fact that you have to reference the player as player.

Impossible, AFAIK.

It is an extremely frustrating limitation of user actions.

Scripted actions offer more flexibility though, you might want to add one of them in via the init event handler.
