SOLVED: triggerActivated: Type bool, expected condition

[endarz]

Currently having an issue making a condition for a holdAction in my scenario.

I am using 3den Enhanced's Hold Action creator to speed up the process, and have the following set as the conditionShow:

not alive officer && triggerActivated trigger_2

Upon mission start, the error message in the title appears, which I took as the trigger being interpreted as true/false instead of an object.

not alive officer

works just as intended, but I also want this action to appear only after this unit is dead AND a trigger is activated by a script.

Any solutions?

Solved my own problem!

I completely scrapped using triggerActivated and put in conditionShow:

trigger_2 isEqualTo true

I forgot that "==" and "isEqualTo" are two different beasts, and initially I tried doing "trigger2 == true". Works flawlessly now, but good God was that a hassle lmao

Anyway worth mentioning that triggerActivated trigger_2 returns a boolean value, which you must compare, it should have been: triggerActivated trigger_2 == true, this is because it's getting compared in a &&

gotcha. so triggerActivated <trigger name> was right, but i just didn't specify what it should equal. i will definitely keep that in mind going forward. thanks!

Tested the initial condition you had in the first post.

not alive officer && triggerActivated trigger_2

Worked fine, no additional checks should be needed.

I must point out this was using only the base game and not 3Eden Enhanced.

That's weird then. Yeah, I've had no further issues after giving triggerActivated <trigger> something to compare to.

Another Arma scripting anomaly i guess lmao
