Any ideas?<span id='postcolor'>

If jeep will be stationary and you do not want to change its location, you can use trigger placed right on jeep:

axis A,B : 5,5

activation : anybody present repeatly

condition : "car" countType thislist-[jeep] >0

Trigger will be activated when another car moves near jeep. But when jeep changes its location, it will not work as you want.

[Nearestobject bug]

I have OFP:Resistance v1.75

In comref manual is :

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">nearestObject pos

Operand types:

   pos: Array

Type of returned value:

   Object

Description:

   Nearest building of given type to given position or object. pos may be [x,y,z, "type"] or [object, "type"].

Example:

   nearestObject [player, "StreetLamp"]

<span id='postcolor'>

But even example with StreetLamp returns error : type object, should be number.

In game nearestobject array should always have 3 number elements and then it returns nearest unit, but you can NOT specify type of object/building.

So there is bug in game or there shoud be in comref manual :

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">nearestObject position

Operand types:

   position: Array

Type of returned value:

   Object

Description:

   Nearest object to given position. position must be [x,y,z].

Example:

   nearestObject getmarkerpos "MarkerOne"<span id='postcolor'>

[Street lamp destroyed]

I would like to know how to recognize that street lamp was destroyed by gunfire.

LightIsOn lamppost allways returns previously set value even the streetlamp was destroyed. Is there any other command (or way) how to recognize if lamp is on or off ?

alive lamppost and getdammage lamppost didn't works.

[My desktop]

My desktop : 1024x768x32bit/100Hz. I'm using no wallpaper but double icons.

['condition of presence']

You must use your "camp=true" in init.sqs . It can not be done during mission. You can add soldiers/vehicles only by createUnit and createVehicle after mission is loaded.

Combination of urban and forest area camo ? Maybe he is assigned to some park action.

[What was the]

I played some sci-fi fps on Comodore 64. I can't remember name too. Maybe it was same game as on Amiga.

[Who wrote houdini into ofp!?]

No. Are you all right ?

[Whats so wrong with pentiums?]

I think there is nothing wrong with them. Only AMD has better cost/performance and when someone buys AMD he must advocate his purchase.

[Pmc fury ii updated campaign is out!]

I don't like unofficial addons. I don't consider official addons as addons - I consider them as part of game.

If there is some really good addon it should became official, in my opinion. I don't think addon makers do bad job, but I think unofficial addons are not good enoght for me.

[if you (addon maker) are so good contact BIS, maybe they publish it] - (I read some complimentary posts about some sound addon, for example)

I can not tell you reason, it's just my feeling.

It's only my opinion.

[Pmc fury ii updated campaign is out!]

Hmm, I like this part :

- Requires no addons. works on standard v1.46 OFP

[How do i put empty objects on top of another?]

You are right. I have done mistake ! It should be :

this setpos [(getpos table select 0)+x,(getpos table select 1)+y,(getpos table select 2)+z]

[How do i put empty objects on top of another?]

Name table as table and put into init box of laptop :

this setpos [(table selsect 0)+x,(table selsect 1)+y,(table selsect 2)+z]

Change x,y,z values (numbers)

[Parachute question]

No, you need small script for it.

[How to...]

It will show wps only on map screen. Always - means both in cadet and veteran mode but only on map.

[Fallout fantasy?]

I played both Fallout 1 and 2. They are great games !

I played Fallout Tactic demo and I don't like it. I don't like real-time fallout fights and even in turn based mode it was strange. So I didn't play Fallout Tactic.

What about new game similat to Fallout ? Its name is Static and it's not finnished yet. Look at screenshots !

[How to...]

If you set wps as visible always or in cadet mode you'll see wps on map, not yellow box during game. Yellow box is visible when you play in cadet mode (when you are trying play mission in editor, you are playing in veteran mode).
