I modified a playlist script to simulate AI speech when the player is detected in some way.
It works fine, but I got one problem which sometimes breaks immersion.
The script gets executed multiple times for a single group, which is ok in big groups, I guess.
But if there is only one or two guys in a group (I got lots of small pats), it sounds strange.
Especially if there is only one guy left in a squad and he speaks in multiple voices.
I googled alot for this, but I can't really find a solution.
So I'm looking for something like: 'If script is already running for group X, then don't run it again!' And all the origin scripts needs to recognize it.
(if anyone wants to see the whole scripts I can put them here too, if that matters in any way.)
I did this a while ago, I think I named them 1, 2 and 3 to tackle this problem, but couldn't find a way to put it to use.
Here is the shouting script:
//_shout1 = [_unit, _target] execVM "scripts\ShoutSound.sqf";
_unit = _this select 0;
_target = _this select 1;
_unit_group = group _unit;
while { ({alive _x} count units (_unit_group) > 0) && ((leader (_unit_group) distance _target < 120) OR (leader (_unit_group) distance player < 120)) } do //repeat cycles as long unitis not killed
{
sleep 1;
_alivecount = ({alive _x} count units _unit_group);
if (_alivecount == 1) then {
if (50 > random 100) then {
if (mein_debug>0) then {
player globalChat format ["ShoutSound.sqf - group: %1 alive: %2 target: %3", _unit_group, _alivecount, _target];

(to clarify the sound files, s1-s5 is one voice, s9-s13 is a different one, the other ones are extra voices and radio sounds.)
Help is much appreciated!
Cheers.
Edit: setVariable/getVariable did the trick.
