Marker altitude

[kadinx 12]

I am always a little cautious about disturbing the forum with a repeated question and I have done it in the past but it is not out of lazyness, mostly because of ineptness...

So

after coming pretty much dry while using the search function (ineptness, I was refering to)...I drop the question.

Can markers take an altitude?

I know by default they are always on ASL reading but can they be assigned an above ground parameter?

Yes it can, which makes it useful for respawn markers (eg: on LHD). This info is in the setMarkerPos wiki.

But apart from that I don't know of any other benefit since there's no way to return the marker altitude value afaik.

Think it should look something like this:

"yourMarker" setMarkerPos [getPos SomeObject select 0, getPos SomeObject select 1, getPos SomeObject select 2];

Should set yourMarker at XYZ of someObject.

Thanks Guys

Unfortunately, I have tried that but maybe I erred somewhere. I will try again since at least two of us believe in that line :)

I will report back.
