Conditions

  • Context menu entries can have different conditions which need to be true in order for the entry to appear.
  • The condition is defined by the conditionShow config entry.

class YourEntry { action = "call BIS_fnc_someFunction";//Can be any kind of expression defined as string Text = "Delete Crew";//Name shown in the context menu conditionShow = "hoverObjectVehicle";//Condition };

The condition can be one of the strings from the table below, or a combination of multiple conditions.

Example 1: conditionShow = "hoverObjectCanFly"; Entry will only show if the object you are hovering over can fly.

Example 2: conditionShow = "hoverObjectCanFly * (1 - hoverObjectFlying)"; Entry will only show if the object you are hovering over can fly and the object isn't flying.

How does it work?

Let's take a closer look at example two.

hoverObjectCanFly and hoverObjectFlying are nothing less than two boolean values, which can either be true (0) or false (1).

If hoverObjectCanFly is true (1) and hoverObjectFlying is false (0) the resulting equation looks like this:

1 * (1-0) = x 1 * 1 = x x = 1

The result will be true (1), therefore the entry will be shown.
