Description

Description:
Returns given list of Objects and/or Positions that are in the given area, area defined by a trigger, marker, location or array.
By default all positions given as Array or as objects are treated as PositionAGL. Since Arma 3 logo black.png2.20 there is an option to force them to PositionWorld format.
Groups:
TriggersMarkersLocationsPositions

Syntax 1

Syntax:
positions inAreaArray area
Parameters:
positions: Array of Objects and/or Positions
area: Object, Location or String - the defined area:
Return Value:
Array: Objects and/or Positions inside the trigger area

Syntax 2

Syntax:
positions inAreaArray [centre, a, b, angle, isRectangle, c, usePosWorld]
Parameters:
positions: Array - Objects and/or Positions to check. Positions must be PositionAGL if area is checked in 3D (see note in description)
centre: Array format Position2D or PositionAGL, Arma 3 logo black.png2.14 Object or Group
a: Number - x axis (x / 2)
b: Number - y axis (y / 2)
angle: Number - (Optional, default 0) rotation angle
isRectangle: Boolean - (Optional, default false) true if rectangle, false if ellipse
c: Number - (Optional, default -1: unlimited) z axis (z / 2)
since Arma 3 logo black.png2.20
usePosWorld: Boolean - (Optional, default false) set to true to treat all positions as PositionWorld
Return Value:
Array: Objects and/or Positions inside the area

Syntax 3

Syntax:
positions inAreaArray [pos1, pos2, pos3,...]
Parameters:
positions: Array - Objects and/or Positions to check.
posN: Position - polygon vertices in 2d or 3d format (see inPolygon)
Return Value:
Array: Objects and/or Positions inside the area

Examples

Example 1:
vehicles inAreaArray myTrigger;
Example 2:
allUnits inAreaArray "myMarker";
Example 3:
allPlayers inAreaArray myLocation;
Example 4:
allDead inAreaArray [[100, 100, 0], 20, 30, 45, false, 10];

The array you send the command can be filtered. For example:
vehicles select { _x isKindOf "StaticWeapon" } inAreaArray "myMarker"
Will return only the statics inside the given marker.
