Description:
This script gives the player the ability to repair vehicles if a few requirments are met.

How it works:
Once the engineer grabs a laser designator he can then go to the "mechanic_shed" and select get repair skill option
he can now repair a damaged vehicle once if he still holds the laser designator.

After he has used his repair he can return to the "mechanic_shed" at base to get another repai skill
this can be done as often as he needs.

Requirments:
1) player is an engineer
2) player has a laser designator
3) player has gone to the Mechanic shed and selected the get repair skill option.


Installation / Usage:
First you need an object on the map named "mechanic_shed" and place the following in the init field:

this addAction ["get repair skill", "HOG_scripts\HOG_Mechanic\mechanic_replenish.s qf"];

then transfer the HOG_scripts folder over to your mission folder and place the following in your init.sqf:

// HOG_mechanic start and Public Variable
if ! isdedicated then {repair_allowed = 0;};
[player] execVM "HOG_scripts\HOG_mechanic\repair.sqf";

Setting u list of engineers / using wth unit mods:
TO add different engineer classnames simply open up HOG_scripts\HOG_mechanic repair.sqf and at the top you will find:

_crewType = ["USMC_SoldierS_Engineer","US_Soldier_Engineer_EP1" ,"BAF_Soldier_EN_W", 
"BAF_Soldier_EN_DDPM","BAF_Sol dier_EN_MTP","Soldier_Engineer_PMC","CDF_Soldier_E ngineer"];

now this has all standalone engineer classnames but if you need more just add them in to the _crewType array.

Adding a different weapon that is needed for the usage of the script:
Sadly Arma 2 standalone does not have any tool weapons well that i know of so i had to use the laserdesignator well that is all i could think of any way if you whish to change this to a different weapon or you have a addon just simply follow these 2 steps:

1) open repair.sqf and change line 12 "if (player hasWeapon "Laserdesignator") then"
2) open mechanic_replenish.sqf and change line 11 "if (_per hasWeapon "Laserdesignator") then"

that is it.


Known Issues:
None


Future plans:
1) Going to make the amount of skills recieved at the "mechanic_shed" selectable via Mission Paramaters
2) Add amount of damage vehicle has before engineer can repair the vehicle
and a few more still thinking.


Credits & thanks:
thanks to the community on BIS Forums for helping me to get my knowledge of Arma 2 scripting.

Also some of the code in the repair.sqf was found online but sadly i dont remember who was the
designer nor can i find it again so who ever you are cheers mate.
