Description
- Description:
- Returns parent of an object if the object is proxy, otherwise objNull. In case of backpack, the parent is a weaponholder or a cargo space of a vehicle or the unit carrying it. Unit in a vehicle will return the vehicle as parent.
Another good use of objectParent is when a static weapon is known and one needs to check if it is assembled or not. objectParent _staticWeapon will return objNull if weapon is unpacked, or backpack object if packed.
- Groups:
- Object Manipulation
Syntax
Examples
- Example 1:
_weaponholder = objectParent _mybackpack;- Example 2:
- Create and place created backpack in front of player:
_backpackContainer = "B_TacticalPack_rgr" createVehicle [0,0,0]; _weaponHolder = objectParent _backpackContainer; _weaponHolder setPos (player modelToWorld [0,5,0]); - Example 3:
- Check if player is on foot:
_isOnFoot = isNull objectParent player; - Example 4:
- Detect if player is in commander turret of a vehicle:
_isVehicleCommander = player isEqualTo commander objectParent player;
