How to use unit classname in addaction title

How would you do it if you were pulling from an array?

Looks like you haven't tried my code. Try it -- replace forEach's body.

Pay attention to the second arg for addAction -- just passing the path to the script is enough.

[How to use unit classname in addaction title]

You can do it the same way I did.

[How to use unit classname in addaction title]

Just get unit class name and use it in the title:

_Object addAction [format ["How do I add the %1 here", typeOf _x], "Scripts\Blah.sqf"];

 

[["X" in thisList]; not working]

The trigger will activate only if all three mentioned units are absent from its radius. I am using this condition:

!(unit1 inArea thisTrigger) && !(unit2 inArea thisTrigger) && !(unit3 inArea thisTrigger)

 

You can use this instead:

([unit1, unit2, unit3] findIf { _x inArea thisTrigger }) < 0

 But if I want to use a command like this one:
x_ inArea thisTrigger

to do the same thing. I had thought of that:

[unit1, unit2, unit3] all {!(_x inArea thisTrigger)}

 Unfortunately, it doesn't work...

There is no command all.

[["X" in thisList]; not working]

Be careful, findIf returns index of the unit found, not quantity! So your condition,

([unit1, unit2, unit3] findIf {!(_x inArea thisTrigger)}) isEqualTo 0

will be true if only the first unit is not in area.

condition: {vehicle _x == CHINOOK} count thisList >0

Slight improvement:

(thisList findIf { (objectParent _x) == CHINOOK }) >= 0

😁

unit1 inArea thisTrigger && unit2 inArea thisTrigger && unit3 inArea thisTrigger

What if another unit appears? Better solution:

([unit1, unit2, unit3] findIf { !(_x inArea thisTrigger) }) < 0

The only question I have is how to delete the players data on the server to restart all players positions?

Just remotely execute your function on server side whenever you need this.

[Unit/Object Present activates trigger]

You can set your CHINOOK to trigger owner and change trigger activation condition to

this and { player in (thisList select 0) }

Its working fine in editor, but refuse to work on dedicated server ... I wonder where is the problem?

The problem is that a server and clients have their own profile namespaces, therefore you should request data from the server:

// initServer.sqf

sendDataToClient = {
    private ["_data", "_varNames"];

    params ["_player"];

    _data = [];

    _varNames = switch (vehicleVarName _player) do { 
        case "kiba3x": { ["KIB_kibaPos", "KIB_kibaRating"] }; 
        case "kavhan": { ["KIB_kavhanPos", "KIB_kavhanRating"] }; 
        default { ["KIB_konalPos", "KIB_konalRating"] };
    };

    {
        _data pushBack (profileNamespace getVariable _x);
    } forEach _varNames;

    missionNamespace setVariable ["clientData", _data, if (_player == player) then { false } else { owner _player }];
};


// initPlayerLocal.sqf

if (isServer) then {
    [player] call sendDataToClient;
} else {
    [player] remoteExecCall ["sendDataToClient", 2];
};

waitUntil { !(isNil "clientData") };

clientData params ["_position", "_rating"];

clientData = nil;

player setPosATL _position;
player addRating _rating;

 

[draw that eliminates the used options]

I didn't quite understand what you want, but this is simplified version of your code:

_varName = format ["Pos_Reh_Namuvaka_%1", (floor (random 9)) + 1];

(leader CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1) setPos (getPos (missionNamespace getVariable _varName));

forEach CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1;

CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1 is not an array, but a group. Revert this code as it was originally.

The addAction does not work

That's because your code is wrong. I guess it should be like this (pay attention to the formatting and readability):

_x addAction [
    ":: Rescue - Rescatar :: ",
    {
        ["Task_CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1", "SUCCEEDED"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState;

        {
            _x setCaptive false;
            _x enableAI "PATH";
            _x setUnitPos "AUTO";
        } forEach (units CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1);

        (units CIV_REHEN_NAMUVAKA_1) joinSilent (group player);
    }
];

 

[Need clarification how the joinSilent command works for spawned groups.]

This is because there is no such event script.

I would like to add this code to the above removing the red part

If you were able to highlight the code, then you can remove it.

This code should be executed once, therefore it should be placed, for instance, in initServer.sqf event script.

I can't seem to get the right bracket arrangement to see if this works.

Make the code readable, don't use strings with code (since code highlighting doesn't work in strings), as I demonstrated, and use programmer's editor with code highlighting.

Do you mean this? If so then this is the bug.

I guess that's because of quotes and apostrophes. Try to invert them.

That's because BIS_fnc_initVehicle doesn't work with string.

Try this code snippet:

if (_initstring isEqualType "") then {
    ([_cargo] + (parseSimpleArray (format ["[%1]", _initstring]))) call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;
};

You already did so in the second piece of code, just change other params.

[Add waypoint function/for random pos in marker]

Don't know for sure -- I just write scripts in accordance to the BIKI, and it says that if radius is zero or positive, then you should use PositionAGL, otherwise you should use PositionASL.

Can i ask.. "-1" is signaling a random distance in the area from centre point?

No, according to the BIKI:

Quote

-1 can be used for exact waypoint placement

 

Just noticed, that PositionASL should be used if radius is negative, so this is fixed version:

_wp = BB addWaypoint [AGLToASL (randomPoint call BIS_fnc_randomPosTrigger), -1];
