CEEEB VS ACTIONS

I'm working on figuring out the ArmA actions

gameLogic = a gamelogic. It seems any unit may initialize the action, irrespective of which unit it to feel the effects. player = soldier.

Syntax

Parameters of scripting function 'action':

<object> action [<type>]
<object> action [<type>, <target>]
<object> action [<type>, <target>, additional parameters]
  • unit = Object: pointer to the unit that should perform this action (if vehicle is given, its commander is used)
  • type = String: name of action type - see below
  • target = Object: target object

helicoptername action ["AUTOHOVER", helicoptername]

DEACTIVATE

unitname action ["DEACTIVATE", unit2, 0, 0, "PIPEBOMB"]

SWITCHWEAPON

["SWITCHWEAPON", <target>, <weapon index>]

unit2 action ["USEWEAPON",unit1,unit1,n] unit2 plays the pickup animation (can use a gamelogic). unit1 switches to the n index muzzle. Muzzle index seems to be related to order weapons are given to unit with addWeapon, 0-8 being the inherited class weapon muzzles (throw & put) although hard to predict and may include gaps??

["USEWEAPON", <target vehicle>,<user of vehicle weapon>,<weapon index>]

unit2 action ["USEWEAPON",unit1,unit1,0] makes unit2 bend down as if dropping something, unit1 fire/use appropriate weapon if he is in a ready to fire stance? valid indexes seem to range from 0 to at least 16, depending on load carried by unit1. Strange fire effects seem to occur, eg pistol smoke fires from the rpg proxy (straight up?), rpg is readied but not fired, pistol fires from rifle proxy (rifle in hand). Different fire modes for rifle use different index. hand grenades seem to work perfectly. Weapon index seems to be related to order in which weapons are given to unit, 0-8 being the throw and put muzzles?? unit2 action ["useWeapon",truck,driver truck,0] makes a truck fire its horn.


WEAPONINHAND / WEAPONONBACK

unitname action ["WEAPONINHAND"]
unitname action ["WEAPONONBACK"]

gameLogic action ["WEAPONonBack",unit1] - unit1 raises rifle. Assume animations are missing.
