mgi scripts [released] MGI_fnc_nearestAirport
pierremgi posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello all, The command nearestAirport doesn't exist. Here is a little script for finding the nearest existing (native) airport or edited one (USS Freedom). MGI_fnc_nearestAirport = { params [["_plane",player,[objNull,[]],[2,3]],"_airport_pos","_airport_inter","_checkValue","_airportName","_airport_dir","_airport_or"]; private _world = (configFile / "cfgWorlds" / worldName); private _airports = [[0,getArray (_world / "ilsPosition"), getArray (_world / "ilsDirection")]]; private _airport_dist = 10^6; private _dynAirports = (allAirports #1); { _airports pushBack [_forEachIndex,getArray (_x / "ilsPosition"),getArray (_x /"ilsDirection")] } forEach ("true" configClasses (_world / "secondaryAirports")); if (_airports isNotEqualTo [] && ((count _airports !=1) or (_airports #0#1#0 != _airports #0#1#1))) then { _airports = _airports apply {[(_x#1) distance2D _plane,_x]}; _airports sort TRUE; _airport_dist = (_airports #0#0); _airport_pos = (_airports #0#1#1); _airport_dir = _plane getDir _airport_pos; _checkValue = (_airports #0#1#2); _airport_or = if ((_checkValue #2) != 0) then [{atan ((_checkValue #0)/(_checkValue #2))},{90}]; _airportName = text (nearestLocation [_airport_pos,"NameLocal"]); }; if (_dynAirports isNotEqualTo []) then { _airports = _dynAirports apply {[_x distance2D _plane,_x]}; _airports sort TRUE; _airport_inter = (_airports #0#0); if (_airport_inter < _airport_dist) then { _airport_pos = getpos (_airports #0#1); _airport_dir = _plane getDir _airport_pos; _airport_dist = _airport_inter; _airportName = "CVN"; _airport_or = (172+ getdir (_airports #0#1)) mod 360; }; }; [_airportName,round _airport_or,_airport_pos,round _airport_dist,round _airport_dir]; }; Usage: just call it like: call MGI_fnc_nearestAirport; // refers to player by default plane1 call MGI_fnc_nearestAirport; // refers to object plane1 [anyPosition] call MGI_fnc_nearestAirport; // any position must be an array inside the array of parameter (like: [getpos player] or [[xxx,yyy]]...) The function will return an array with: [name of the airport (location), orientation of the main runway/angle deck for CVN, position of the airport, distance, azimuth] Note: you can add it in cfgFunctions for better performance while calling it multiple times: In your description.ext (or cpp ,hpp in addons) class cfgFunctions { class MGI { class anyCategoryYouWant { file = "yourSubFolder(s)"; // "\yourSubFolder(s) for addon" class nearestAirport{}; }; }; }; Then place the code in an sqf named fn_nearestAirport inside your path (described as file). SQF starts with params line and ends with the returning array (must not be wrapped inside MGI_fnc_nearestAirport {...};) And same usage in scripts: plane1 call MGI_fnc_nearestAirport;
