Description:: Assigns the result of expression on the right to the variable on the left. Technically this is not a command and it is not listed in supportInfo. This is more of a compiler instruction. Also, you cannot do this a = b = c = 4;
Groups:: Uncategorised

Example 1:: _value = 5 _mygroup = group player _greeting = "Hello!" _enemytank = mytank1

Kronzky: A conditional assignment can be done via the following syntax: _msg = if (alive player) then {"you're alive"} else {"you're dead"}; Posted on June 22, 2009 - 16:27
Alef: It's possible to assign to numbers. Numbers values are not changed. Useful instead of assigning to nul or nil when a result is of no use. 0 = [player] execVM "myScript.sqf"
