How did you come up with this?

 

{deletevehicle _x} foreach (units helig + [heli1]);

Cheers

Thx!

Hi, I wanna delete a group and an heli when a trigger activates, this is my code:

 

for [{_i=1},{_i < 5},{_i = _i + 1}] do {_unit = units helig select _i; deleteVehicle _unit;} ; deleteVehicle heli1; 

 

It says: error zero divisor.

tower addEventHandler ["Explosion", {if (_this select 1 > 0.7) then {(_this select 0) setDamage 1;}}];

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Event_Handlers#Explosion

 

The arguments used are:

_this select 0: The tower itself

_this select 1: Damage done to the tower by an explosion (for Explosive Charge and Explosive Satchel roughly 0.8)

 

If the tower is a map object you have to do the following:

// Transmitter tower
_tower = nearestObject [position, "Land_TTowerBig_1_F"];
_tower addEventHandler ["Explosion", {if (_this select 1 > 0.7) then {(_this select 0) setDamage 1;}}];

// Transmitter tower (tall)
_tower = nearestObject [position, "Land_TTowerBig_2_F"];
_tower addEventHandler ["Explosion", {if (_this select 1 > 0.7) then {(_this select 0) setDamage 1;}}];

It works! Thanks! And now I know how the EH arrays works! Thank you very much!

This work if you call the code in due time. In other word, a if.. then.. check once, not repeatedly like in a loop.

You can use a loop like while {something true} do { waitUntil {damage..};  or if (damage ...] then {...} ... };

 

or better, use an event handler ("hit" or "handleDamage"...)

 

NB: x is not an accurate variable like in math. use _x in a foreach loop or something defined before: player, myUnit...

If you are referring to the magic variable _x then you'd have to use _x instead of x.

Also only the damage of objects that can be damaged can be returned. I'd need some more information on what you are doing.

Try to use brackets ():

if ((damage x) > 0) then {/*CODE*/};

Example from the wiki:

if ((damage player) > 0.1) then { 
    player groupChat "I'm hurt! Medic!"; 
};

 

 

I wanted to use it on a transmitter tower, to get to blow it up with just one normal charge, the brackets didn't work.

Also tried with a while loop but same result. It seems like  it doesn't read it if you use damage x.

I don't really understand how the event handler work.  :/

Hi,

I wanted to use in my code something like this:

if (damage x > 0) then {//code };

But seems like it doesn't work like that, someone could explain?
