Trigger - Play argument

Hello,

I have a problem with one of triggers - "Play argument." From the manual I understood than this trigger can animate static objects, such as radar antenna rotation. I did not find any additional information for this parameter. But I would like to know more about this triggers much more. What this triggers can do and how to used it. Eg. can it open the cab to the L-39ZA or cargo space on the C-130 ... etc?? There are some values (0 and 1) in the trigger parameters . What mean this number ? I´m not able to activate this trigger on any static object . Please can someone help me?

Thank you

Same question here.

I am not familiar with the feature totally, but what does the ME look like? Is there a place for argument number? How do you select the target that you want to animate? is it the usual trigger zone, or do you specify the specific object? 0 / 1 most likely refers to the 0 and 1 animation frames declared in the 3d model. For instance, in the hardened aircraft shelters, Argument 0 controls the doors. and 0 the doors are closed, at 1 they are open. Although 0 could mean off while 1 means on.

Yeah it is animation arguments, I'm not entirely sure how the trigger works or if it still does or not.

I tested it with my own animated models (Animation works in Modelviewer).

The ME trigger condition has been created correctly.

Unfortunately, the animation is not started in the sim.

Has there been any solution for this? I have the same problem, same results as BS_Fighter 2013- and now it is 2017....

I cannot find how to play an animation argument on a static object. Any help greatly appreciated.

Wow. It's amazing how long a problem could exist and not receive any support for years. Almost a decade. It's like the devs created the tools for us but said, "Figure it out yourselves, you bastards."

Hello guys,

I tried to use it recently, but doesn't seem to work neither.

@Grimes, do you know if it's planned to fix it? Or maybe it's working but we don't get how to use it, so, if we can get some info' it would be awesome!

Maybe a method is existing to make it works?

I'm thinking about something like that:

Unit.getByName("myUnit").playArgument(...)

(it could be used in a script in the mission editor)

I'm trying to implement a mod, but I can't do it if I can't play animations and implement the "brain" of the mod

apparently it has never ever been able to do anything.
