functions

[Hauk]

I've recently been learning functions thanks to snYpirs tutorial, but have come across a problem.
As you said (snYpir) , i tried to  write the function myself which was obviously wrong, so I went to the link in the functions library and copy-and-pasted the written function there. there's the problem.
When I copy and pasted the function and saved it and alt-tabbed back into flashpoint i radio'ed him to get out but all I got was a problem  with the "if" part of the If-Then-Else. It reads like this:

// is the unit in a vehicle?
 If (jeep _soldier != _soldier) then
 {

"jeep" is my vehicle and "soldier" is my unit but flashpoint returns an error unknown operator with the _soldier that comes after jeep. I did copy-and-paste it so I'm guessing that others might have had the same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thnx,

Hauk

I'm not sure about if that works.

I always thought it was:

if (vehicle unit != unit) then

I'm not sure if it works with a vehicle that has been named.

Just try:

if (vehicle _soldier != _soldier) then

The vehicle is an OFP command...
Not meaning that 'substitute this with the name of your vehicle'...

So use vehicle, not the name of the vehicle in question...

I'll give it a shot and get back to you.
