setDriveOnPath

Description

Sets the path to follow for AI driver. Note that unitReady will return true even if AI is still driving through the points.

Using any other move command (e.g _vehicle move getPosATL _vehicle) or doStop will stop the effect of this command.

Important

This command does not work if the vehicle doesn't have an AI steering component defined in its config, or if the component is disabled. Thus, it never works on air vehicles and boats which don't use steering components. Only land vehicles may be compatible. (cars, tanks, APCs, etc.)

Note

For the command to work properly, the unit must either be an agent, or in the case of normal AI, have been stopped using doStop.

Syntax

vehicleName setDriveOnPath points

Parameters:

• vehicleName: Object
• points: Array - list of Positions to format [x,y,z] OR to format [x,y,z, speed], speed being in m/s.

Returns: Nothing

Examples

Example 1

myVehicle setDriveOnPath [getMarkerPos "wp1", getMarkerPos "wp2"];

Example 2

private _points = allMapMarkers apply { getMarkerPos _x; }; // getting all marker positions
{ _x pushBack 15; } forEach _points; // setting speed
myVehicle setDriveOnPath _points;
