Examples

Example 1:

result = [this, "", []] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;

Example 2:

result = [this, ["MyTextureSource1", 0.5, "MyTextureSource2", 0.6], []] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;

Example 3:

result = [this, nil, ["MyAnimationSource1", 0.5, "MyAnimationSource2", 0.7]] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;

Example 4:

// randomise camo net options with 50% probability [vehicle player, false, ["showcamonethull", 0.5, "showcamonetturret", 0.5, "showcamonetcannon", 0.5, "showslathull", 0.5]] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;

Example 6:

// force show all camo net options. Use animationNames to get all available animation sources. Vehicles that don't support certain animations are simply ignored. [vehicle player, false, ["showcamonethull", 1, "showcamonetturret", 1, "showcamonetcannon", 1, "showslathull", 1]] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle;
