[Mikie boy]

send me a link to your mission with the ied script in it

tried your mission - removed the if (isserver) from fock_iedinit.sqf

works fine

Cool.. thanks Mike, I did try that, but didn't get any explosions.. maybe I didn't test enough though. If I park my HMVV on top of one.. wait for 20 seconds or so.. It should explode, correct?

Oh well.. still no luck. I'm curious Mikie, Did you actually get one to explode? If so, what vehicle? I'm seeing them on roads and can defuse them just fine. They just don't seem to be any threat. I used HMMWV GPK and SOV vehicles. Parked over 6 or 7 IEDs for about 20 seconds each. Nothing

[Mikie boy]

Do they work when u r on foot? I ran up to one and Then it exploded. Didn't try in car as I was teleporting around the map

[smacker909]

my last testing I only drove up and parked over them

[Mikie boy]

Check to see if u can detonate by walking Up Then we know the type if vehicle is and issue. I've used this in a few missions with no probs using vehicles but they have all been vanilla oa

Hi Mikie, I can try that this afternoon. The vehicles I'm using are vanilla OA, I believe. BTW - I'm running SP, and not on server. That is okay, right?

at work at the moment, so can't test.. but what I gather is.. On start up, the following from Fock_iedinit.sqf adds the 'clear' action to the IEDs (after placing them) and then sets variable "Rigged" _random (either 0 or 1) and TRUE... then passes them to Fock_road_ied.sqf

_iedfound = [nil, _ied, "per", rADDACTION, "Disarm Ied","FOCK_ied\Fock_iedclear.sqf",[],6,false,true,"","(_target distance _this) < 3"] call RE;
		call compile format['
			_ied setVehicleInit "
			this setVehicleVarName ""ied%1"";
			ied%1 = this;
				";
				', _i];
			_ied setVariable ["Rigged", _random, true];
			null = [_ied] execVM "FOCK_ied\Fock_road_ied.sqf";

So, I believe this is running ok, since I clearly see the addaction to clear the IEDs..



From Fock_road_ied.sqf ... we should continue running while _ied is not null and at least one is active (1)


I had added some HINT codes for testing.. in the following and noticed it was never hit.. after approaching and setting on the ied;

while {((!isnull _ied) and (_active == 1))} do 
{
	
   waituntil {count playableUnits >= 1};
//	_searchtarget = nearestobjects [_ied,["CAManBase","Car","Tank","truck"],15]; 
	_searchtarget = nearestobjects [_ied,["CAManBase","LandVehicle"],20]; 
	_targetlist = [];
		{	
		 if (side _x == WEST && isPlayer _x) then 
		  {
			   _targetlist =  _targetlist + [_x];
		  };	
		}foreach _searchtarget;

I played around with the _searchtarget lines but was never able to hit them. I will do more testing...

the iedDetect.sqf script is working fine too Thanks for taking the time to help out
