Description

Description:

Creates a diary entry. Supported tags and their parameters:

If the createDiaryRecord command fails, it returns a null record. Before Arma 3 v2.00, isNull did not work with the diary record type and diaryRecordNull did not exist. In order to verify a null record, it is possible to create a variable and compare against it:
Copy
private _recordNull = objNull createDiaryRecord []; private _createdRecord = player createDiaryRecord ["Diary", ["Title", "Description"]]; if (_createdRecord isEqualTo _recordNull) then { hint "Failed"; };

When adding multiple diary records, be aware that they appear in reverse order. ie the first one you add will appear last and the last one you add will be first.

It seems that the task parameter has no effect in Arma 3 because the task entry in the briefing menu is created when the task itself was created.
