pretty new to arma scripting, been looking around and what i found out about the blacklist stuff is, that it needs to be an array of array

first array are top left corner x and y coords

second lower right corner x and y coords

this is what i got:

_blacklist = [[0.101, 15360.1], [11075.6,5328.23]];
_spawnMarker = [8910.85,3474.14];
_preWaypointPos = [_spawnMarker,0,8000,10,0,1000,0,_blacklist] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos;

result:

17:41:28 Error in expression <"_maxX", "_minY", "_maxY"];
_minX = _tl select 0;
_maxX = _br select 0;
_minY = >
17:41:28   Error position: <select 0;
_maxX = _br select 0;
_minY = >
17:41:28   Error select: Type Number, expected Array,Config entry
17:41:28 File ca\modules\functions\misc\fn_isPosBlacklisted.sqf, line 37

so it got a number but expected an array? wut? :(

halp? :(

You need to nest the array one more level. So add extra brackets

_blacklist = [[[0.101, 15360.1],[11075.6,5328.23]]];

Small BlackList areas are not effective?

I'm trying to black list vehicles (car, helis, etc) since the function ignore then when finding the position. Its not working.

 

EDIT: small Balck listed areas works ok. Error was on my side.
