Sort Array per Distance

[Dielos 0]

How can I sort an array with markers according to their distance to a specific position? I couldn't find any function for it...

Thanks

Probably not the most elegant solution, should work fine though.

_unsorted = [<your markers>];
_sorted = [];
_pos = <your position>;

{
    _closest = _unsorted select 0;
    {if ((markerPos _x distance _pos) < (markerPos _closest distance _pos)) then {_closest = _x}} forEach _unsorted;
    _sorted = _sorted + [_closest];
    _unsorted = _unsorted - [_closest]
} forEach _unsorted;

_sorted

Thanks a lot, Jezuro!

Simpler than I thought!!!

Whoa, I've been wondering about this for sometime.

Thank you Jezuro! It's nice to see you around here.
