    This is ArmA

    Hi Folks,

    My other "sim".

    For those interested - just how I enjoy ArmA - again - it's not really a scripted game - just a sandbox that provides terrains and assets - where you design the mission/campaign.

    My opening sequence for a mission I'm making.



    Just an example of the scripting language - this facilitates the crash shown in the video:

    Code:
    //==========================//
// Helicopter Crash Script  //
//==========================//

// Author: scottb613
// File: SCOheliCrash.sqf

// Note: Only tested in single player.

// Given: "_heli" must be set to the variable name given to the helicopter to be crashed.
// Given: Intended use - fired by trigger ===>>>         [] execVM "Scripts\SCOheliCrash.sqf";

//=============================================================================================//
//=============================================================================================//

// Set to variable name assigned to helicopter
    private _heli = slick1;
//-

//private _groupMembers = units _heli;

// Sound Explosion
    playSound3D ["a3\sounds_f\weapons\explosion\explosion_satchel1.wss", player, true, (_heli getPos [15, getDir _heli]) vectorAdd [0, 0, 5], 5, 1, 0];
//--

// Helicopter Setup
    _heli setDamage .98;
    _heli setHitPointDamage ["HitHRotor",1];
    _heli setHitPointDamage ["HitVRotor",.95];
    _heli setHitPointDamage ["HitEngine",.99];
    _heli allowDamage false;
//--

// Particle Effect Fire
    private _ps1 = "#particlesource" createVehicleLocal (position _heli);
    _ps1 attachto [_heli, [0,0,0]];
    _ps1 setParticleParams [
        ["\A3\Data_F\ParticleEffects\Universal\Universal", 16, 12, 0, 8], "", "Billboard",
        1, 3, [0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 2], 0, 1, 1, 0.5, [1, 3],
        [[1,0.5,0,1], [1,0.2,0,0.5], [0.5,0.1,0,0]],
        [0.5, 1], 1, 1, "", "", _ps1];
    _ps1 setParticleRandom [0.4, [1, 1, 1], [0.5, 0.5, 0.5], 0.4, 0.4, [0, 0, 0, 0], 0, 0];
    _ps1 setDropInterval 0.03;
//--

// Particle Effect Smoke
    private _ps2 = "test_EmptyObjectForSmoke" createVehicle (position _heli);
    _ps2 attachto [_heli, [0,0,0]];
//--

// End Fire
    sleep 3;
    deleteVehicle _ps1;
//--

// Destroy Helicopter
    waituntil {isTouchingGround _heli};
    sleep 1;
    _heli allowDamage true;
    sleep 1;
    _heli setDamage 1;
//--

// End Smoke
    sleep 60;
    deleteVehicle _ps2;
//--​

    Regards,
    Scott

    That's programmed, eh? Looks great.
    If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, items saved in our library or the ongoing development of our TSRE Fork, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

      Hi Eric,

      Yeah - they've built a massive programming language to do just about everything in ArmA. A big part of my enjoyment is writing scripts for ArmA and seeing the "sim" behave as scripted. I'm not a real programmer but I like Unix shell - when I'm here I use (Cygwin) to automate almost every step of my model making process - after export.

      Thanks for taking the time.

      Example ORTS Model Export (Cygwin Bsh):
      Code:
      #!/bin/bash
