In the void of spooner leaving us without spon_recognize and other goodies for arma 2, and me not knowing people were working on porting it, I made this little script a week ago which combines 3 of spooners addons I loved most ( recognize, crewNotify and status (to an extend)).
Features:
- Get a list of crew and cargo in your vehicle (works for multi-turreted vehicles as well)
- Have you own team highlighted in the list
- Get a count on how many cargo slots you have, and how many you have left
- Being able to see the crew and cargo list inside and outside of the vehicle(upto 15m distance).
- You're also able to use this on infantry to get their name, groupname, and rank (upto 10m distance)
So all in all this is kinda an extension to the spacebar menu.
An addon will probably come as soon as I figure out how to make an one Done
Screenshots:onetwoScript Version Instructions:Just add the showInfo folder to your mission root, and add teh following line to your init.sqf:
[] execVM "mk4_showInfo\init.sqf";
Addon Version Instructions:Copy all folders from the addon archive to your arma2 game directory.
And then press and hold the spacebar while in a vehicle or looking at a vehicle or infantry.
Special thanks to Spooner for his addons in arma 1, and his awesome coding in those which taught me a lot.
Below an example mission, the script version, and the addon version (requires Extended EventHandlers). Readme's are included.
