How to stop a vehicle's engine

[How to stop a vehicle's engine]

Got it working :)

assignedDriver _x action ["engineOff", _x];

If it's a tank, having a gunner (turning the turret) will restart engine, because BIS was lazy.

Now that one is ugly... I tried:

assignedDriver _x action ["getout", _x];

but the gunner will just return to his place after a second or so.

Ain't no way to make him just do nothing in the turret? Maybe fading away? :)

driver action ["engineOff", vehicle driver];

:)

Wow, that was hard :o

Is there any place where you can see a complete list of actions?

Thank you.

[How to stop a vehicle's engine]

Hi,

Is there anyway for a vehicle to stop its engine when it reaches a waypoint?

I tried with dostop _x and _x engineOn false; the vehicle halts at the waypoint but the engine still run.

There is only 1 waypoint.

Thank you.

[Vehicle stops at waypoint]

Scars09,

It works though not as smooth as with triggers (the vehicle does not halt, however slows down).

Anyway, it is a better solution as using triggers was such a hassle (the map was looking so filled with lines).

[Vehicle stops at waypoint]

I tried increasing the completion radius, but the vehicles will halt nevertheless.

The solution involving triggers and setCurrentWaypoint works very well - it is tedious but the vehicle will run through the waypoint without stopping.

Thanks for the solution :)

[Vehicle stops at waypoint]

Hi,

I set a few waypoints on a road and I set myself as cargo. The vehicle that carries me stops (speed = 0) at every waypoint.

Is there any option for the AI to pass through a waypoint without slowing down?

I tried setting the speed to full and behaviour to careless but AI still stops.

Thank you.

[Start as a driver in empty vehicle (SOLVED)]

Hi,

Noob question, but I haven't found the answer :(

How do I start (me or an AI) as a driver in an empty vehicle?

I try this movincargo boat1: the unit is in the boat, but not as a driver.

I try this moveInCargo [boat1, x]: I try all the x values, but I eventually I end up outside the vehicle (never as a driver).

I also tried this action ["GETOUT", Boat1]; of course I want to move the player / AI as a driver, but I don't know the action to be written down.

Thank you :)

Bah, nevermind, foud the solution - it was just too obvious :)

Bon and W0lle,

Thanks, it works. Now I can get some rest :)

[HELP - Place a unit in the lighthouse]

But if I want a different position? Do I have to start the player / AI in the 0 position?

[HELP - Place a unit in the lighthouse]

Hi,

I am trying to place the player in the lighthouse on Utes.

I am using this setPos (nearestBuilding this buildingPos PositionNumber) but I end up in an another place.

I tried positions from 1 to 6.

Can you help me please? I am really lost (no pun intended).

[Starting as a driver in an empty vehicle]

Hi,

Is it possible to start as a driver in an empty vehicle?

I tried this moveInCargo [boat1, 0] but it seems the driver position is unavailable. I tried all numers (-2, -1, 0, 1, etc.)

Whenever a position in unavailable I end up in water.

I try to start as a Spetsnaz in an empty PBX.

Thank you.
