Description

Description:

Disable saving of script containing this command. After this, the script can work with data types which do not support serialization (UI types).

ⓘ

See Namespace serialization for more information.

⚠

In Arma 2 and up to a certain version of Arma 3, giving a Display or Control to spawned code would raise an error due to the usage of the then non-serializable _this variable. Using disableSerialization or uiNamespace wouldn't help; the trick here is to pass the argument inside an array:

Copy

_display = findDisplay 46; _display spawn { hint str _this; }; // would raise a serialization error [_display] spawn { hint str (_this select 0); }; // OK
