English [Traffic System] Have access to the menu with a condition (license, ...)

[Mathis]

Welcome to this tutorial that will allow you to access the Traffic System menu with a condition such as a license instead of allowing a whole side
This can be used to give, for example, access to the menu to repairman or to a job.
This tutorial follows a user's request for help on Discord.

Let's go !

In your @The_Programmer/addons/traffic_system/server/fn_initAllGroups.sqf, search theses lines :

if (_cop_Author isEqualTo 1) then {_cop_author_Arr pushBack (configName _x);};
if (_med_Author isEqualTo 1) then {_med_author_Arr pushBack (configName _x);};
if (_east_Author isEqualTo 1) then {_east_author_Arr pushBack (configName _x);};

And replace theses lines by :

_cop_author_Arr pushBack (configName _x);

Replace your @The_Programmer/addons/traffic_system/client/fn_controlMenu.sqf by :

_side = TP_TrafficLight_cop_Author;
if (_side isEqualTo []) exitWith {};

createDialog "tp_dialog_control_trafficLights";

_display = findDisplay 65500;
(_display displayCtrl 2503) ctrlSetText (["STR_CONTROL_CENTER","Sharywan_Settings_TrafficSystem","TrafficSystem_Localization"] call theprogrammer_core_fnc_localize);
(_display displayCtrl 5002) ctrlSetText (["STR_CLOSE_MENU","Sharywan_Settings_TrafficSystem","TrafficSystem_Localization"] call theprogrammer_core_fnc_localize);

{
    _name         =         getText       (missionConfigFile >> "Sharywan_Settings_TrafficSystem" >> "Traffic_Light" >> _x >> "name");

    _condition = getText (missionConfigFile >> "Sharywan_Settings_TrafficSystem" >> "Traffic_Light" >> _x >> "condition_open_menu");
    _condition_result = if (_condition isEqualTo "") then {true} else {call compile _condition};

    if !(isNil "_condition_result") then {
        if (_condition_result isEqualType true) then {
            if (_condition_result isEqualTo true) then {
                _control     =         _display displayCtrl 38510;

                _control lbAdd _name;
                _control lbSetPicture [(lbSize _control)-1,"\a3\ui_f\data\map\vehicleicons\iconobject_circle_ca.paa"];
                _control lbSetData [(lbSize _control)-1,_x];
                _control lbSetValue [(lbSize _control)-1,_forEachIndex];

                ctrlShow [1001,false];
                ctrlShow [1000,false];
            };
        };
    };
}  forEach _side;

if ((lbSize _control) isEqualTo 0) exitWith {
    closeDialog 0;
    hint (["STR_NO_AUTHOR_2","Sharywan_Settings_TrafficSystem","TrafficSystem_Localization"] call theprogrammer_core_fnc_localize);
};

And finally, in the script's config_master (in the mission), find these lines :

cop_authorize_disable = true; // Allows the side west to use the traffic control panel to disable the lights
medics_authorize_disable = true; // Allows the side medic to use the traffic control panel to disable the lights
east_authorize_disable = false; // Only if you have the adac site: allows you to allow the adac side to use the traffic control panel to disable the lights

And replace them by :

condition_open_menu = ""; // Allows the condition to use the traffic control panel to disable the lights

Two examples :

For one license only : condition_open_menu = "license_civ_VARIABLE";
For a license or cop or medic : condition_open_menu = "(license_civ_VARIABLE || (playerSide in [west, independent]))";
In both cases, replace VARIABLE by the variable of the concerned license.

And now, it's ready!
