Title: Lobby options to change variable.
Post by: Grimfist on 07 Feb 2009, 14:59:52

Hi, im new here and have a question (sorry if in wrong place or anything)

you know in the lobby on some missions you can set the time and respawn etc?
well i want the admin to be able to choose if a sandstorm is on or not.

Code: [Select]

; ***************************************************
; Sand Storm Script 1.0
; by Toadeater (toadeater@wolfenet.com)
; ***************************************************
;
; Usage: Activate from the player's init line, or a script:
; [playername] exec "duster.sqs"
;
; If you want to use this script in a cutscene, attach it to a camera, otherwise
; the "sand" won't be seen from the camera's point of view.
; E.g. [camera1] exec "duster.sqs"
;
; Turn off by setting the "dustoff" variable to true via a trigger or script, etc.
; dustoff = true
how do i make the dustoff variable change by selecting it in the lobby?

maybee something like this?

Code: [Select]

titleParam1="Play Intro/Outro";
valuesParam1[]={1,2};
defvalueParam1=1;
textsParam1[]={"Play","Skip"};

TY in advance, grim.

Code: [Select]

titleParam1="Dust On/Off";
valuesParam1[]={1,2};
defvalueParam1=1;
textsParam1[]={"Dust","NoDust"};


Then in the init.sqf add:

Code: [Select]

if (Param1 == 1) then {dustoff =true} else {dustoff = false};

Something like that.

btw we don't allow images in the signature here.
