I am unable to hide a marker !

[goki]

I read related tuts yet can't hide a marker !

I am hiding related objective very well  ( "4" ObjStatus "HIDDEN" ) but the command I put in ini ( "markername" SetMarkerType "Empty" ) is not working !

hey maybe I am entering marker name wrong! can it be ? should I put a different thing instead of the name of the marker I put in marker window ? or maybe "empty" should be replaced as "hidden" or something..

do you have any idea_?

"MarkerOne" setMarkerType "Empty"

should work.    Check spelling and the name in the marker.    Try another markertype, say "objective" or "arrow" and see if that works.

If all else fails delete the marker and make a new one, sometimes OFP is temperamental like that.

you can just set them to empty in the mission editor instead of the init.sqs if you want.

If you want to simply hide the marker then do this:

"markername" setmarkerpos [-5000,-5000]

  macky & blackie are right there. ROFL

"MarkerName" SetMarkerType "Empty"  (in init.sqs)

or simply create an "empty" marker, using F6  

And when ya want it to pop up again, just use the "Set marker type" command in a trigger/wp/script.

Type may be any of:

"Flag", "Flag1", "Dot", "Destroy", "Start", "End", "Warning",
  "Join", "Pickup", "Unknown", "Marker", "Arrow" or any other (addon- ) marker type.  

Example:

   "MarkerOne" setMarkerType "Arrow"
