Description

Description:
Returns an array of config entries which meet criteria in condition code. Command iterates through available classes and config properties for given config entry. If 3rd param is true the search also includes inherited properties. Current looked at config is stored in _x variable (similar to alternative count command implementation). Condition has to return true in order for the looked at property to be added to the resulting array. A bit slower than configClasses but allows to access inherited entries.
The condition code passed to configProperties should only be used for simple filter expressions and nothing more.
Since Arma 3 logo black.png2.02 the following conditions are optimised for performance:
  • "true" (omitted condition)
  • "isClass _x"
  • "isClass _x && (...)"
