Description

Description:

Enables or disables a trait or alters a trait of the given unit. Unit traits consist of unit abilities, which are Booleans and modifiers, which are Numbers. Custom trait can only be a bool.

Abilities:

Boolean engineer - Ability to partially repair vehicles with toolkit, equivalent to engineer = 1; in CfgVehicles
Boolean explosiveSpecialist - Ability to defuse mines with toolkit, equivalent to canDeactivateMines = 1; in CfgVehicles
Boolean medic - Ability to treat self and others with medikit, equivalent to attendant = 1; in CfgVehicles
Boolean UAVHacker - Ability to hack enemy and friendly drones, equivalent to uavHacker = 1; in CfgVehicles

Modifiers:

Number audibleCoef - A lower value means the unit is harder to hear
Number camouflageCoef - A lower value means the unit is harder to spot
Number loadCoef - Equipment weight multiplier affecting fatigue and stamina

Groups:

Object Manipulation

Syntax

Syntax:: unit setUnitTrait [skillName, value, isCustom]
Parameters:: unit: Object - the unit whose trait should be set
: skillName: String - name of the skill
: value: Boolean or Number - value (see above)
: isCustom: Boolean - (Optional) Must be set to true in case of custom
Return Value:: Nothing

Examples

Example 1:: player setUnitTrait ["Medic", true];

R3vo: The higher the value for the loadCoef the less stamina a unit has. Negative values will dramatically increase the stamina actually to a point where it extends the stamina bar.

Midnight: explosiveSpecialist trait can defuse mines (i.e. satchel charges), whilst the engineer trait alone cannot.
