Hi,
I wonder if anyone can tell me how to find the display name of a unit type. You know, the string that is displayed when your cursor is on an unit on the screen (Rifleman, etc.)
I suspect it as something to do with config entry but after trying a lot of combinations nothing worked.
For example, I've tried (configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> (typeOf player)) but it just returns the typeOf player, which in this case is "FR_TL".
(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> (typeOf player) >> "displayName") just return the string "dispalyName".
What I want is the dispaly name of the type.
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Try
getText (configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> (typeOf player) >> "displayName")
