**Lou Montana** — 2018-04-28

*caller* can only be [player](../commands/player.md) due to Arma 2 design: FSM overrides by `_clicker = player` instead of `_clicker = _this select 0`).

Parameters displayed are incorrect, these are:

```sqf
_caller        = _this select 0;
_veh        = _this select 1;
_passedPos    = _this select 2;
_mainScope    = _this select 3;
_secopScope    = _this select 4;

if (count _this > 5) then
{
    _supportType = _this select 5;
};
```
