Description
9Liners & Notepad

Original author: Chief Wiggum
Current authors: Arend, TheMysteriousVincent

Project repository: https://github.com/Saborknight/9liners-and-notepad/

Description:
9Liners & Notepad is a client-side mod, that allows you to open a couple of documents, like a notepad or CAS-9Liner directly ingame.
You can simply open these documets by pressing the assigned shortcut and you'll be able to write on them,save them or clear them.
Once you save a page, it will be binded to your profile, which means, that even if you leave the mission and join a different one, your note will still be on the page where you wrote it down.

9Liners & Notepad brings the following documents to your game:
- CAS 9Liner sheet
- Medivac 9Liner sheet
- Notepad
- Gunship Call-For-Fire 5Liner sheet:
- CAS Check-In Briefing sheet:
- Adjust-Fire-Mission sheet:
- Fire-For-Effect-Mission sheet
- Marking-Mission sheet
- Target-Location-Methods Help sheet (no interaction)

Useage as player:
First off, you have to press ESC and navigate to: Options > Controls > Configure Addons > 9Liners&Notepad
Here you have to assign a hotkey for each document. Also make sure to assign the 'Disable Controls' hotkey. You'll need it later.

Once you've assigned your hotkeys, you're able to open the documents by pressing the hotkeys.
Each document works the following way:

Pressing the left arrow opens the previous page
Pressing the right arrow opens the next page
Pressing 'SAVE' saves the current page.
Pressing 'CLEAR PAGE' clears the current page
Pressing 'CLEAR ALL' clears all pages
Note: There isn't any kind of "Do you really want to..." selection if you press "CLEAR PAGE/ALL". So think before you press it!
Do a single click next to the document will enable controls
You'll be able to control you character/vehicle, use TFAR and everything else while the document is shown.
In order to release the controls of your character/vehicle and edit the document, simply press your 'Disable Controls' Hotkey that you've assigned earlier.
Do a double click next to the document will close it.
You can also close it by pressing ESC.
Each document will open at the page, where you've closed it.

Useage as mission-builder:
This mod uses the profileNamespace command to save the pages text.
Each page has its own variable in the profileNamespace.

If you want so set each users text on page 1 of their notepads to "I MADE THIS MISSION!", simply add this to your init.sqf:

profileNamespace setVariable ["cw_noteblock_pageText_1", "I MADE THIS MISSION!"];

If you want only one user to have this text on page1, you have to run this code in a local script.
You can also use an other page for this! (Notepad contains 50 pages)

Note: this mod was not originally developed by me. This mod is under its original licence: Arma Public License Share Alike (APL-SA)[www.bistudio.com].

Hi @Arend the Bastard

Sorry for the delay in answering, very busy days... I've written you privately in Discord to tell you a couple of things about the addon, I've fixed (thanks to FlyingTarta) an incompatibility bug that the UI had when it was loaded next to "Improved Melee System" (can happen with other addons), I also added some forms: CAS 6 line (USMC helo CAS), Helicopter LZ brief and interaction with the forms through the ACE interaction menu.

I'm available on Discord, greetings and thanks for your work and attention!

@Valmont that's one of many features in development right now.

@Diablo you say they are out of place, what do you mean exactly?
Diablo [=ΛLPHΛ=] Dec 26, 2022 @ 3:38am 
hello, I need help... I want to add some pages to your magnificent addon (for personal use) and I am not able to get the coordinates of the text boxes to edit them, they are out of place... could you explain me how to do it or what am I doing wrong? THANK YOU!!!

Would be great if this could be made compatible with ACE 3 so that instead of having to add hotkeys you get the option on the ACE Interaction Menu. Other than that pretty amazing!
