| + | There's a lot of cool scripts (functions) available in Modules.pbo - especially under "Functions" and even an multiplayer Framework in "MP". | ||
| + | |||
| + | Since ArmA 2 you must first initialize a variable before you reference it in your scripts. In ArmA, it was not a problem, at least for conditions. | ||
| + | <code cpp> | ||
| + | // this will error if myBoolean was not previously defined. | ||
| + | if (myBoolean) then { hint "test" }; | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | Usage of isNil is still valid. | ||

| + | How to make task hints | ||
| + | |||
| + | taskHint is relatively useless itself (because it requires too much effort), but there is a script that makes it easier to use. So instead of executing a hint, do this: | ||
| + | <code cpp> | ||
| + | [objNull, objNull, tskExample1, "SUCCEEDED"] execVM "CA\Modules\MP\data\scriptCommands\taskHint.sqf"; | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The first 2 arguments are useless so i just send objNull, the 3rd is the task that you've created, and the 4th is the status. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Supported task states: "CREATED", "CURRENT", "CANCELED", "SUCCEEDED" and "FAILED". | ||
| + | |||
| + | * This command does not set the state of the task, so you still need to do this command, and the setTaskState command in your trigger. | ||
| + | * It creates the hint in the middle of the screen, not at the right side (this means that taskHint and hint can be used at the same time). | ||
