# BIS_fnc_sceneGetObjects

*Function · Broken Functions, Scenes · Arma 3 v0.50 · introduced in Arma 2 v1.00*

> [!WARNING]
> This function is listed as broken on the wiki.

## Description

> [!WARNING]
> This function is broken (at least in Arma 3) as it has a typo, displaying an error on each use!  (typo **line 63**, `[centrum]` instead of `[_centrum]`).

This function gets objects (but centre object) positions and direction relative to the choosen object and copies the result to the clipboard via [copyToClipboard](../commands/copyToClipboard.md).

Result is to format:

```sqf
[
    // 11 elements for one object
    _nameOfObject, _objectClass, _objectToGet, _computedAngle, _distance, _newDir, _vectorUp, _vectorDir, _animation, _elevASL, _elev,
    _nameOfObject, _objectClass, _objectToGet, _computedAngle, _distance, _newDir, _vectorUp, _vectorDir, _animation, _elevASL, _elev,
    // ...
]
```

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Please note that the clipboard result is a one-level array, meaning that all parameters are defined one after the other!

```sqf
[centre, radius, type] call BIS_fnc_sceneGetObjects
```

- `centre`: [Object](../topics/Object.md) or [String](../topics/String.md) - object or marker name - **NOT** a [Position](../topics/Position.md)
