/* * Author: Pabst Mirror (based on Explosive attach by Garth de Wet (LH)) * Approves placement of the lightObject, scans for an appropriate location and attaches * A player can release the attachObject with it floating in mid-air. * This will use lineIntersectsWith to scan towards the center of the vehicle to find a collision * ArmA's collision detection is of couse terrible and often misses collisions (difference between what we see and collision LOD) * So it does multiple scans at slighly different angles * This is VERY computationaly intensive, but doesn't happen that often. * * Arguments: * 0: Unit (player) * 1: attachToVehicle * 2: Item Classname (CfgWeapon/CfgMagazine) * 3: Light Vehicle Classname * 4: On Attach Text * 5: Starting Pos of dummy item * * Return Value: * Nothing * * Example: * No * * Public: No */ #include "script_component.hpp" private ["_startingOffset", "_startDistanceFromCenter", "_closeInUnitVector", "_closeInMax", "_closeInMin", "_closeInDistance", "_endPosTestOffset", "_endPosTest", "_doesIntersect", "_startingPosShifted", "_startASL", "_endPosShifted", "_endASL", "_attachedObject", "_attachList"]; params ["_unit", "_attachToVehicle", "_itemClassname", "_itemVehClass", "_onAtachText", "_startingPosition"]; TRACE_6("params",_unit,_attachToVehicle,_itemClassname,_itemVehClass,_onAtachText,_startingPosition); _startingOffset = _attachToVehicle worldToModel _startingPosition; _startDistanceFromCenter = vectorMagnitude _startingOffset; _closeInUnitVector = vectorNormalized (_startingOffset vectorFromTo [0,0,0]); _closeInMax = _startDistanceFromCenter; _closeInMin = 0; while {(_closeInMax - _closeInMin) > 0.01} do { _closeInDistance = (_closeInMax + _closeInMin) / 2; // systemChat format ["Trying %1 from %2 start %3", _closeInDistance, [_closeInMax, _closeInMin], _startDistanceFromCenter]; _endPosTestOffset = _startingOffset vectorAdd (_closeInUnitVector vectorMultiply _closeInDistance); _endPosTestOffset set [2, (_startingOffset select 2)]; _endPosTest = _attachToVehicle modelToWorldVisual _endPosTestOffset; _doesIntersect = false; { if (_doesIntersect) exitWith {}; _startingPosShifted = _startingPosition vectorAdd _x; _startASL = if (surfaceIsWater _startingPosShifted) then {_startingPosShifted} else {ATLtoASL _startingPosShifted}; { _endPosShifted = _endPosTest vectorAdd _x; _endASL = if (surfaceIsWater _startingPosShifted) then {_endPosShifted} else {ATLtoASL _endPosShifted}; //Uncomment to see the lazor show, and see how the scanning works: // drawLine3D [_startingPosShifted, _endPosShifted, [1,0,0,1]]; if (_attachToVehicle in lineIntersectsWith [_startASL, _endASL, _unit]) exitWith {_doesIntersect = true}; } forEach [[0,0,0.045], [0,0,-0.045], [0,0.045,0], [0,-0.045,0], [0.045,0,0], [-0.045,0,0]]; } forEach [[0,0,0], [0,0,0.05], [0,0,-0.05]]; if (_doesIntersect) then { _closeInMax = _closeInDistance; } else { _closeInMin = _closeInDistance; }; }; _closeInDistance = (_closeInMax + _closeInMin) / 2; //Checks (too close to center or can't attach) if (((_startDistanceFromCenter - _closeInDistance) < 0.1) || {!([_attachToVehicle, _unit, _itemClassname] call FUNC(canAttach))}) exitWith { TRACE_2("no valid spot found",_closeInDistance,_startDistanceFromCenter); [localize LSTRING(Failed)] call EFUNC(common,displayTextStructured); }; //Move it out slightly, for visability sake (better to look a little funny than be embedded//sunk in the hull and be useless) _closeInDistance = (_closeInDistance - 0.0085); //Create New 'real' Object _endPosTestOffset = _startingOffset vectorAdd (_closeInUnitVector vectorMultiply _closeInDistance); _endPosTestOffset set [2, (_startingOffset select 2)]; _attachedObject = _itemVehClass createVehicle (getPos _unit); _attachedObject attachTo [_attachToVehicle, _endPosTestOffset]; //Remove Item from inventory _unit removeItem _itemClassname; //Add Object to attached array _attachList = _attachToVehicle getVariable [QGVAR(attached), []]; _attachList pushBack [_attachedObject, _itemClassname]; _attachToVehicle setVariable [QGVAR(attached), _attachList, true]; [_onAtachText] call EFUNC(common,displayTextStructured);
