1. Config Values

1.1 Setting Vehicle As Repair Location

A vehicle will be set as a repair truck based on the config ace_repair_canRepair. Setting fullRepairLocation needs to be enabled and is by disabled default.

class CfgVehicles {
    class Car_F;
    class MyTruck: Car_F {
        ace_repair_canRepair = 1; // Make repair vehicle
    };
};

1.2 Setting Vehicle Spare Wheels and Tracks

A vehicle can have a default count of spare wheels/tracks based on the config ace_repair_spareWheels and ace_repair_spareTracks. Values set in 3den for a vehicle will be used first. Vehicles with no value set in 3den or config will default to 1 spare wheel/track.

class CfgVehicles {
    class Car_F;
    class MyTruck: Car_F {
        ace_repair_spareWheels = 4;
    };
    class Tank_F;
    class MyTank: Tank_F {
        ace_repair_spareTracks = 4;
    };
};

2. Variables

2.1 Make A Vehicle Into A Repair Truck

A vehicle can be turned into a repair truck by setting the variable ace_repair_canRepair to 1 to enable, 0 to disable.

• Setting fullRepairLocation needs to be enabled and is by disabled default.
• Can be set via 3den attribute.

VEHICLE setVariable ["ace_repair_canRepair", 1, true];

2.2 Make An Object Into A Repair Facility

An object can be turned into a repair facility by setting the variable ace_isRepairFacility to 1 to enable, 0 to disable.

• Setting fullRepairLocation needs to be enabled and is by disabled default.
• Can be set via 3den attribute.
• Object cannot be a vehicle.

OBJECT setVariable ["ace_isRepairFacility", 1, true];

2.3 Set Engineer Trait Level On Unit

Determines if a unit can repair damaged hitpoints and if so, how much can be restored. See ACE - Logistics settings for more details.

• Can easily be set via 3den attribute.

To set a units engineer trait level set the variable ace_isEngineer to:

• 0 / false: Untrained, only be able to replace wheels, based on settings.
• 1 / true: Engineer.
• 2 : Advanced Engineer, allowing a higher level of repairs, based on settings. (by default settings is the only one with access to full repair)

UNIT setVariable ["ace_isEngineer", 1, true];
