Very good Arma 3 pilot restriction script. This does work.

by

This is a very good Arma 3 pilot restriction script. This will limit only players who are pilots to get into the pilot or gunner seats of a vehicle.

player addEventhandler ["GetInMan", {
	params ["_unit", "", "_vehicle"];
 
	if (_vehicle isKindOf "Air" && {
		!(_vehicle isKindOf "ParachuteBase") && {
			!((vehicle _unit getCargoIndex _unit)>=0) && {
				!((toUpper typeOf _unit find toUpper "Pilot") > -1)}
			}
		}) then {
 
		_unit moveOut _vehicle;
	};
}];
 
player addEventhandler ["SeatSwitchedMan", {
	params ["_unit", "", "_vehicle"];
 
	if (_vehicle isKindOf "Air" && {
		!(_vehicle isKindOf "ParachuteBase") && {
			!((vehicle _unit getCargoIndex _unit)>=0) && {
				!((toUpper typeOf _unit find toUpper "Pilot") > -1)}
			}
		}) then {
 
		_unit moveOut _vehicle;
	};
}];

Put this script in the initPlayerLocal.sqf file.

This really does work very well. This blocks the Copilot seat as well, which is tricky in an Arma 3 script. But this one performs that function as well. This checks that a player is a pilot, so Pilots and Jet Pilots will both work.

This simple script will apply an IDAP insignia to a player that is a Medic.

if ((toUpper typeOf player find toUpper "Medic") > -1) then
{
       [Player,"IDAP"] call bis_fnc_setUnitInsignia;
};

Very useful script for a unit.

And the code below will create a custom pause screen, with extra content on the bar at the bottom and a custom Esc menu.

    _this spawn {
        params ["_display"];
		_display displayCtrl 2 ctrlShow false;
		_display displayCtrl 103 ctrlShow false;
		_display displayCtrl 115099 ctrlShow false;
		_display displayCtrl 523 ctrlShow false;
		_display displayCtrl 104 ctrlSetText "Quit current mission...";
		_display displayCtrl 2 ctrlSetBackgroundColor [0.7, 0.3, 0.9, 1];
		_display displayCtrl 1005 ctrlSetText format ["ZGM83 Afghan war. %1 : Arma 3 v%2.%3!", "1.90", (productVersion select 2), (productVersion select 3)];
        _display displayCtrl 120 ctrlSetText "Enemy insurgents have invaded Aghanistan. Destroy their assets and remove all enemies to free this suffering nation. This must be carried out in a humanitarian way, minimising damage to civilian assets.";
		_display displayCtrl 6455 ctrlShow true;
		_display displayCtrl 6455 ctrlSetText format ["%1", playerName];
    };
}] call BIS_fnc_addScriptedEventHandler;

Great way to customize the Esc menu for your unit.

Here is a better version of the pilot restriction script. Put this in the initPlayerLocal.sqf file.

inGameUISetEventHandler ["Action", "
 
	if (!((_this select 0) getVariable ['disableGetIn',false]) && ((_this select 0) isKindOf 'Air') && (_this select 3) in ['GetInDriver','GetInPilot','GetInGunner','GetInCommander','TakeVehicleControl','UnlockVehicleControl']) then { true }
 
"];

This script blocks the Pilot seat and the “Take Controls” option but allows a non-pilot into the co-pilot seat.
