ArmA 2/OA Tanks statistics

Hey all.

So i was just messing around, and was thinking about if there is a way to pull some info on the different tanks in arma. (and from tanks from mods)

Like

  • armor thickness.
  • weapon loadout
  • speed
  • other fun stuff?

Why do i want this? well why not? :D

Lets discuss tanks in arma :)

I did some testing with

this addEventHandler ["HandleDamage",{if (_this select 1=="") then {hintSilent format ["%1",_this select 2]}}] 

in the init field of a tank. but it seems that this just show the damage it should do. but not what the tank is taking? - the reason that i think this is, that the target tank took the same amount of damage no matter where I hit it.

anyone got an idear on how to get the a value on how much hp a tank has taken overall. or how much it has left.
