CarlGustaffa 4 Posted July 26, 2008 Hi I'm trying to use nearestObjects or a trigger to find out if I have a certain type of vehicle around. Problem with using nearestObjects is that is finds all subclasses as well. What I have this far is this: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> _obj = nearestObjects[getMarkerPos "bonus_vehicles",["HMMWV50"],30]; if ( count _obj >0 && ((typeOf (_obj select 0)) == Â "HMMWVMK")) then {ctrlEnable [11006, true]} else {ctrlEnable [11006, false]}; It looks a bit weird, because the HMMWV50 is the parent class, not the HMMWV which you might expect. Now, this works ok if it is the only Mk near the marker, but (naturally) it fails when I place a TOW there as well since I don't count through every item in the array. So, question: How can I easily find out if there are more than 0 of a specified *type* (instead of *kind*) within the search distance? I also tried placing a trigger, but I'm having problems with the condition field. What is the best solution to this? I know it must be kindOf obvious, but I just can't seem to nail it right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
