(ArmA3 1.24) It is recommended to use configClasses instead of BIS_fnc_getCfgSubClasses and BIS_fnc_uniqueClasses on subclasses collection or conditional selection. _faces = "true" configClasses (configFile >> "Cfgfaces"); //same as: _faces = (configfile >> "CfgFaces") call BIS_fnc_getCfgSubClasses; //Extract all animals: animals = "((configName _x) isKindOf 'animal')" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgVehicles"); /*same as: aniamls = []; [(configFile >> "CfgVehicles"),{ if ((configName _this) isKindOf “animal”) then { animals set [ count animals, _this] } } ] call BIS_fnc_uniqueClasses;*/ Return nested subclasses, currently still BIS_fnc_returnChildren //Return all nested config classes.
[(configFile >> "CfgFaces"),1, true, true ] call BIS_fnc_returnChildren;

A fantastic way to filter shit. 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;
