create marker? detect weapon type?
« on: 10 Jan 2004, 06:59:51 »
Is there a way to createvehicle a marker in a script or do I have to have it made before hand and setpos where i need it to go?--(like a marker where a ammo crate spawns)

and--

Is there a way to return the type of weapon and how much ammo someone in my squad has?--(like if I wanted the player to simulate taking their place, i deletevehicle the squadmember and setpos the player in his place--but I need player to have same weapon loadout as the deleted squadmember)


These questions are poorly worded,only I know what i'm thinking i guess  ;D

I don't know if you can camcreate a marker, but you can control its type and colour, (setMarkerType) so that it's invisible at mission start and then moved and changed when appropriate as you say.

2.   Commands:-

ammo
hasWeapon
weapons
magazines

Should do the trick.


Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Thanks! Thats exactly what I was looking for (with the weapons)

I didn't know that about markers. My mission map looked pretty weird  whole bunch of markers at the lower left hand corner. Now I will invisilate them.(Is invisilate a word? no lol)
