Description

Description:
Search for selection in the object model (first in the memory level, then in geometry LODs).
Returns position in model space. In Arma it returns the initial position of the selection, in Arma 2/Arma 3 position of the selection (e.g. when it is animated) in render time scope. If a selection does not exist [0,0,0] is returned.
Groups:
Object ManipulationRender Time Scope

Syntax

Syntax:
object selectionPosition selectionName
Parameters:
object: Object
selectionName: String
Return Value:
Array - in format PositionRelative ([x,y,z] relative position in model space)

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
object selectionPosition [selectionName, LODName] Template:since
Parameters:
object: Object
[selectionName, LODName]: Array
selectionName: String
LODName: String - LOD name, one of the following:
  • "Memory"
  • "Geometry"
  • "FireGeometry"
  • "LandContact"
  • "HitPoints"
Return Value:
Array - [x,y,z] relative position in model space

Examples

Example 1:
_inModelPosition = player selectionPosition "head_hit";
Example 2:
_inModelPosition = player selectionPosition "pelvis";
Example 3:
_inModelPosition = player selectionPosition "head";
Example 4:
_inModelPosition = player selectionPosition "camera";

To know more selections simply create an eventHandler damage on an object.

Since 1.49.131660, you can use an alternative syntax:

object selectionPosition [selectionName, lodName]

lodName: "Memory", "Geometry", "FireGeometry", "LandContact", "HitPoints"

If the given selectionName is not found in the given lod, [0,0,0] is returned.

Do use the filter that comes with Alt Syntax to suit your needs. For example player has 3 selections called "head" and their selectionPositions are quite different from each other: player selectionPosition ["head", "Memory"]; // [0.173798,0.330415,1.37783] player selectionPosition ["head", "FireGeometry"]; // [0.14375,0.206039,1.44689] player selectionPosition ["head", "HitPoints"]; // [0.144257,0.306769,1.53471]
