Thanks 7erra, I think this one might be out of my range to figure out which is ok. I've played with a bunch of lines to see what happens. Started with the basics simple hint when lbselchanged not sure how to send that information to IDC 900 - maybe call a function? Anyways thanks for putting me in a direction.

Looking for some advice on my GUI which I always seem to have problems understanding. I have created a GUI for a teleport script, I have a listbox that all the possible places to teleport to has below that teleport button and so on with a map inside the screen. what I would like to do is when I click on say the HQ in the listbox the map moves to the position.

Thank you for your expertise, I will give this a whirl and see if I can get it to work. Again, thanks.

Harsh, I like it. Yeah I'm old and teaching myself at least I just learned that I can setpos of _wngrpb1 to _loc rather then moveingunner from this and I should hint my variables. I'll get there maybe someday - maybe. And I'm playing with ESS (enemy spawning system) and trying to manipulate the spawning of things to my liking.

I wanted to make barracks which I'm using " _wnbarracks_type = ["Land_BagBunker_01_large_green_F", "Land_BagBunker_Large_F"];" code pulling from another script to randomly pick one or the other and placing it on a random position. Ultimately when the barracks is destroyed it would give you points. Good talk and thanks for the motivation!

Thanks Pierre, and I love you addons! So I got the code to work and do what I want it to do. wn_barracks = _numwnbarracks; for "_i" from 1 to _numwnbarracks do { _wn_b_marker = format ['Bunker_%1',_i]; _loc = [_ESSAreaMkr, 50] call ESS_fnc_findSafePos; _marker = createMarker [_wn_b_marker,_loc]; _wn_b_marker setMarkerType "mil_objective";_wn_b_marker setMarkerText "Barracks";_wn_b_marker setMarkerAlpha 0.4;_wn_b_marker setMarkerColor "ColorRed"; wn_barracks_pos append _loc; _wn_barracks = createVehicle [selectRandom _temparraywnbarracks,_loc]; _wngrpb = createGroup [east, true]; _wngrpb1 = _wngrpb createUnit [selectRandom _temparrayUn, _loc, [], 0, "FORM"]; _wngrpb1 moveingunner _wn_barracks; }; Now I need to figure out how to make the _wn_barracks = createVehicle [selectRandom _temparraywnbarracks,_loc]; which are to bag_bunkers to be destroyable. Then I can figure out how to do a !alive bag_bunker count thing. Anyways thanks for looking at it, and if you have any ideas on how to set the attributes in the above scope to make them destroyable please let me know. I'm thinking I need to give them each a variable just like the markers so I can "check them"?

I was afraid you would want to see it haha hint 'Creating Barracks'; "wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerShape "ICON";"wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerType "mil_warning";"wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerBrush "SOLID";"wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerDir 0;"wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerColor "ColorRed";"wn_barracks_marker" setMarkerText "Enemy Barracks"; missionNamespace setVariable ["wn_barracks_pos",[]]; wn_barracks = _numwnbarracks; for "_i" from 1 to _numwnbarracks do { _loc = [_ESSAreaMkr, 50] call ESS_fnc_findSafePos; wn_barracks_pos append _loc; _wn_barracks = createVehicle [selectRandom _temparraywnbarracks,_loc]; // _wn_barracks_marker = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]; _wngrpb = createGroup [east, true]; _wngrpb1 = _wngrpb createUnit [selectRandom _temparrayUn, _loc, [], 0, "FORM"]; _wngrpb1 moveingunner _wn_barracks; switch (_i) do { case "1" : {_wn_barracks_marker1 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; case "2" : {_wn_barracks_marker2 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; case "3" : {_wn_barracks_marker3 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; case "4" : {_wn_barracks_marker4 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; case "5" : {_wn_barracks_marker5 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; case "6" : {_wn_barracks_marker6 = createMarker ["wn_barracks_marker",_loc]}; }; };

I'm trying to create _x barracks, make them destructible and set markers on them. I can make the barracks and save the positions in an array, I can't seem to make markers on them (only 1 is creating) and they buildings are not destructible. So any of you real coders want to write up some code I would sure appreciate it so I can learn how to do it, if its even possible. Maybe I'm trying to do too much in one "for "_i" from 1 to _numwnbarracks do {"? Thanks in advance.

Larrow, thank you that work flawlessly.

Hoping one of you pro-programmers can help me out. I'm trying to call (3) different cas types in MP from the CFGCommand menu. This works great from launching a server from EDEN but once it goes dedicated not so much. INIT.SQF wncas2 = [ ["Cas",false], ["CAS Gun and Run",[2],"",-5,[["expression","[cursorTarget,300,'B_Plane_CAS_01_F',0] execVM 'scripts\casgun.sqf';"]],"1","1"], ["CAS Gun and Missle",[3],"",-5,[["expression","[cursorTarget,300,'B_Plane_CAS_01_F',1] execVM 'scripts\casgr.sqf';"]],"1","1"], ["CAS Missle",[4],"",-5,[["expression","[cursorTarget,300,'B_Plane_Fighter_01_Stealth_F',2] execVM 'scripts\casmissle.sqf';"]],"1","1"] ]; CASGUN.SQF hint "CAS Gun and Run Strike inbound!"; _position = screenToWorld [0.5,0.5]; _direction = round(random 360); _logic = "Logic" createVehicleLocal _position; _logic enableSimulationGlobal false; _logic hideObjectGlobal true; _logic setDir _direction; _logic setVariable ["vehicle",_vehicle]; _logic setVariable ["type",_type]; [_logic,nil,true] spawn BIS_fnc_moduleCAS; [_logic] Spawn { sleep 5; deleteVehicle (_this select 0); Yeah I know my coding and formatting is terrible - I'm old. I have tried using remoteExec and remoteExecCall again it works great locally. This idea stems from Xeno's domination scripts which are way over my paygrade. And now that I'm posting this I'm missing a } at then end - would that break it? Thanks for any suggestions.

Yep I know I'm a new guy, especially at the coding, I have downloaded just about all your scripts (from several sites) looking for your Lash.sqf file, any help on its location, and I guess along with the Position.sqf, which sounds like it would be easier to use. Now for the compliments, Thank you for all of your hard work, really makes adding new content easy and interesting. Wing
