A fantastic way to filter stuff. eg:

create an array of west vehicles and spawn then in front of the player in rows of 5

private ["_cfgArray", "_xPos", "_yPos", "_veh"];

_cfgArray = "( 
	(getNumber (_x >> 'scope') >= 2) && 
	{
		getNumber (_x >> 'side') == 1 && 
		{ getText (_x >> 'vehicleClass') in ['Armored', 'Car', 'Air'] }
	}
)" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgVehicles");

_xPos = 0;
_yPos = 0;

{
    _yPos = _yPos + 20;
    _veh = createVehicle [(configName _x), player modelToWorld [_xPos, _yPos, 0], [], 0, "None"];
    if (_yPos >= 100) then {
        _yPos = 0;
        _xPos = _xPos + 20;
    };
} forEach _cfgArray;

Benargee: configClasses does not account for inherited subclasses, use configProperties with isClass filter instead configProperties [_config, "isClass _x", true];

IT07: this will get a list of ALL locations on the currently loaded world ( "true" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgWorlds" >> worldName >> "names" ) ) apply { // change each config entry into a location nearestLocation [ getArray ( _x >> "position" ), getText ( _x >> "type" ) ] };
