So Im not sure this is still relevant but this is what I wrote for the original video:
_source = "#particlesource" createVehicleLocal getPos SELECTED_UNIT;
_source setParticleParams [["\A3\data_f\ParticleEffects\Universal\Refract.p3d",1,0,1,0],"","Billboard",1, 1, [0,0,.4],[0,0,1],0,1,1,0,[.25,3,.25,0],[[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1,1]],[1.5,0.5],0,0,"","",SELECTED_UNIT];
_source setDropInterval .1;
However that was just me playing around a bit inside the editor.
I made a multiplayer compatible version (however it has CBA as a dependancy),
initPlayerLocal.sqf
["MPCloakToggle", {
_unit = _this Select 0;
_mode = _this Select 1;
if (_mode) then
{
_source = "#particlesource" createVehicleLocal getPos _unit;
_source setParticleParams [["\A3\data_f\ParticleEffects\Universal\Refract.p3d",1,0,1,0],"","Billboard",1, 1, [0,0,.4],[0,0,1],0,1,1,0,[.25,3,.25,0],[[1,1,1,1],[1,1,1,1]],[1.5,0.5],0,0,"","",_unit];
_source setDropInterval .1;
_unit setVariable ["CloakVic", _source];
[_unit] spawn
{
sleep .4;
(_this select 0) hideObjectGlobal true;
};
} else {
deleteVehicle (_unit getVariable "CloakVic");
[_unit] spawn
{
sleep .25;
(_this select 0) hideObjectGlobal false;
};
};
}] call CBA_fnc_addEventHandler;
initCloak.sqf
// callscript with 0 = this execVM "initCloak.sqf" from a units init line
if (str player != str _this) exitWith {};
player setVariable ["CloakIsOn", false];
_OffId = player addAction ["Turn off cloak",{player setVariable ["CloakIsOn", false]; player setCaptive false; ["MPCloakToggle",[player, false]] call CBA_fnc_globalEvent;}, "",1,true,true,"","(player getVariable ""CloakIsOn"")"];
_OnId = player addAction ["Turn on cloak",{player setVariable ["CloakIsOn", true]; player setCaptive false; ["MPCloakToggle",[player, true]] call CBA_fnc_globalEvent;}, "",1,true,true,"","!(player getVariable ""CloakIsOn"")"];
player setVariable ["CloakOffActionID", _OffId];
player setVariable ["CloakOnfActionID", _OnId];
0 = [] spawn
{
while {true} do
{
waituntil{!alive player};
player removeAction (player getVariable "CloakOffActionID");
player removeAction (player getVariable "CloakOnActionID");
waituntil{alive player};
_OffId = player addAction ["Turn off cloak",{player setVariable ["CloakIsOn", false]; player setCaptive false; ["MPCloakToggle",[player, false]] call CBA_fnc_globalEvent;}, "",1,true,true,"","(player getVariable ""CloakIsOn"")"];
_OnId = player addAction ["Turn on cloak",{player setVariable ["CloakIsOn", true]; player setCaptive false; ["MPCloakToggle",[player, true]] call CBA_fnc_globalEvent;}, "",1,true,true,"","!(player getVariable ""CloakIsOn"")"];
player setVariable ["CloakOffActionID", _OffId];
player setVariable ["CloakOnfActionID", _OnId];
};
};
I haven't bugtested it too much but it should get the job done...
I know Im kind of late to the party, but maybe this will help someone at some point...
