Title: while the player is and isnt in a vehicle (in sqf)
Post by: Surdus Priest on 23 Oct 2007, 23:01:49

in sqs, the condition for when the player is in a vehicle is: !(vehicle player != player);   and (vehicle player = player) for when the player isnt.

but in sqf whats the condition to determine whether or not the player is in a vehicle?

You beat me to that one, but I'll just clarify by pointing out that:

Code: [Select]

!(vehicle player != player)

is exactly the same as:

Code: [Select]

(vehicle player == player)

Logic thankfully hasn't changed at all between SQS and SQF, just the programming structures that use them (so you would use "? condition : stuff" in the archaic SQS, where you'd use "if (condition) then { stuff };" in shiny new SQF).

im beginning to wonder just how closely related sqf is to VB or javascript :P
