| Hello, Im writing a mod for myself and need help I want to change the "tab" order of the vehicles. Now I have something working, but its far from perfect and good practice. I grab the g_currentMission.vehicles table and swap 2 tables (vehicles) .. Now i need to save the game (takes longer, maybe cuz of writing new xlm files) restart the savegame, then its working as I wanted.. 2 vehicles are swapped in tab order. Can I get some help how to get this working without restarting? part of my test function: local tmp1 = g_currentMission.vehicles[4] local tmp2 = g_currentMission.vehicles[18] g_currentMission.vehicles[4] = tmp2 g_currentMission.vehicles[18] = tmp1 |

| Or is it posible to override the input for tabbing? Then when pressed tab, only my function gets the event? That would prob be the best option. |

| You don't need the auxiliary variables. To swap values in LUA you can simply write x,y = y,x or in an array a[i] , a[k] = a[k] , a[i] Anyway, the FS uses more than only the 'g_currentMission.vehicles' table. There are also some copies, eg. in the shop items. |

| Thanks for the reply, Im not fluent in lua ;) Learned again something about swaps. Its hard to search in the docs if you need something specific, but I found something I can work with. spec_enterable has istabbable, I can make my workaround with that. cheers |
