Hey guys, I'm using ATM_Airdrop in a mission and I've created a trigger to limit the use of the script. How ever I'm unsure on how to execute it properly. I can put this in a vehicle and it works fine because it targets the driver. this addAction ["Halo Jump Test", "ATM_airdrop\atm_airdrop.sqf", "", 10, false, true, "", "(driver _target == _this) && HaloAvailable"]; This all works perfectly the triggers count down and displays everything, I'm just wondering how i would go about putting the Addaction on a object rather then a vehicle ? ---EDIT--- this addAction ["Halo Jump Test", "ATM_airdrop\atm_airdrop.sqf", "", 10, false, true, "", "HaloAvailable"]; Sorry and thanks. Will Delete post

Thanks for your input guys, @Larrow that does the job thanks so much!

Sorry if this has been asked before, I did have a look around and tried a few things to no avail. I found this basic "Deploy HQ" script and I've tried to add Arsenal to the supply box it spawns. It all works in the editor how ever when I upload to a dedicated server the addaction doesn't show up on the box for arsenal. Any input would be helpful.

This is pretty cool dude I'm going to use this in a training mission. Thanks!!

Hey guys, I've got a CQB mission where the player has different zones that they have to clear with targets in each. I'm wondering if anyone knows if its possible to have a stopwatch that starts when the player enters the zone and ends when the last target in the zone is put down?? On top of that is there a way to display the times/scores on a board or GUI somewhere, somewhat like the Altis boot-camp mission. Any input would be appreciated.

Just stumbled on this, I use this in one of my missions and this is how I got it to work init.sqf MAC_fnc_switchMove = { private["_object","_anim"]; _object = _this select 0; _anim = _this select 1; _object switchMove _anim; }; switchMoveEverywhere = compileFinal " _this select 0 switchMove (_this select 1);"; From my experience if this is closer to the top of the init.sqf the better. I don't know as much as some people on here but this is what I have used. Hope it helps.

Awesome I'll check it out. Should this work on a dedicated server??

Ok so I'm still new to scripting and stuff but this is what I'm doing savecontent.sqf Wak_fnc_saveCrateContent = { /* Author: 654wak654 Version 1.0 Description: Saves content of given crate to profileNamespace. Parameter(s): 0 : OBJ - the crate (default: _this). Returns: BOOL */ _crate = [_this, 0, _this, [objNull]] call BIS_fnc_param; _weapons = getWeaponCargo _crate; _ammo = getMagazineCargo _crate; _items = getItemCargo _crate; _backpacks = getBackpackCargo _crate; _cargo = [_weapons, _ammo, _items, _backpacks]; profileNamespace setVariable ["Wak_crateContent", _cargo]; saveProfileNamespace; true }; loadcontent.sqf Wak_fnc_loadCrateContent = { /* Author: 654wak654 Version 1.0 Description: Fills cargo of crate set by Wak_fnc_saveCrateContent. If no result is found, crate is emptied or left as is. Parameter(s): 0 : OBJ - the crate (default: _this). 1 (Optional) : BOOL - if no save is found, empty the crate or not (default: true).

I also added Global to the end of some of the commands for mp.

Forgive my ignorance, do I add that to a sqf and call it from each init of the ammobox ?

Awesome! I'll have to look at trying to implement it tomorrow tho as I'm also away from my computer. Thanks for the help tho!

I did a quick bit of research nothing lengthy tho. How would I implement this ?

Hey guys, First of all thank you to all of you who have helped me out with questions I've had recently. I was wondering if its even possible and how to save the contents of an ammobox even after a restart of the server ? I have a locker system in the mission I'm working on and I'm wondering if I can save the contents.

Yeah I saw that when dead said that. I just wanted to test it and make sure if I was doing it right.

So I tired this yesterday and I may or may not be doing it right. I have that code in a file lockers.sqf Then I named the player "P1" and the corresponding ammo-box which has been cleared of all gear the name of "P2" and in the initialization field of the box How ever as you said it may not work. I'm still very new to scripts as well so I maybe doing something wrong. Also the addaction is just to give It a name kind of thing.

Cool thanks guys I haven't had a chance to test anything yet but I'll see how I go and let you know.
