Description

Description:

Spawns an agent that will execute an AI path calculation and fire the "PathCalculated" event handler. The vehicle type to simulate could be one of the following presets:

• "man" (will use "C_man_1")
• "car" (will use "C_Offroad_01_F")
• "tank" (will use "B_MBT_01_cannon_F")
• "wheeled_APC" (will use "B_APC_Tracked_01_rcws_F")
• "boat" (will use "C_Rubberboat")
• "plane" (will use "B_Plane_CAS_01_dynamicLoadout_F")
• "helicopter" (will use "B_Heli_Light_01_F")

If the given vehicle type is not one of the above presets, the exact given type is used.

⚠

In order to guarantee that the event handler is added to the result of this command before the path is calculated, use isNil workaround: isNil { calculatePath ["man","safe",[2832.9,5927.79,0],[3107.46,6036.61,0]] addEventHandler ["PathCalculated", { hint str _this }] };
