Description

Description:

Moves the soldier out of the vehicle.

Notes:

• Works for both AI and player entities
• AI unit gets back in - unless is under player command or combined with other sqf commands (orderGetIn false, allowGetIn false or leaveVehicle)
• Respects the vehicle's lock state (same as action "Eject") - unlike doGetOut, commandGetOut. It will work for player entities regardless though
• Still executes when the vehicle is moving/flying (same as action "Eject") - unlike doGetOut, commandGetOut
• Without vehicle's position's get out animation - unlike action eject, doGetOut, commandGetOut
• Immediately - unlike action eject, doGetOut, commandGetOut
• Works also on dead units (same as action "Eject" (but one after another)) - unlike doGetOut, commandGetOut
• Does not work for UAV crew
• Does not work for remoteControlled units
• Works on unconscious (same as action "Eject" (but one after another)) - unlike doGetOut, commandGetOut (unless AI under player command)

This seems no longer true in Arma 3:
Does not work on dead crew - Use setPos family of commands to move dead units out soon after they became dead. After awhile dead unit's group becomes grpNull and it cannot be moved out at all.
