Tank turret damage in marker possible? (still need help)

[BlackSun 0]

Hi!

 

I started doing a XVM config to show the turret damage (like with the vehicle info mod when you mouseover a tank) above everyone's head in the marker to see how scary someone is.
However I quickly ran into a problem: I have no idea how macros work in XVM and if it is even possible to do it.

I know that I can do simple check like {{vehicle=something?yes|no}}, but:

1. Is there a way to get which turret he has?
2. Is it possible to do lesser-greater check? {{level<5?yes|no}}
3. Is it possible to get my vehicle tier to compare to the marker vehicle? {{level<{{mylevel}}?yes|no}}
4. Is it possible to do basic math inside a macro? {{level<{{mylevel}}-2?yes|no}}

Only these macros are available? https://github.com/xergio/xvm/blob/master/doc/macros.txt

 

Tried to search those, but didn't really find any information,

Thank you!

That's some old list. Go to https://bitbucket.org/XVM/xvm/src/a2baa8a7cc59323285e19f997d4c268aca275008/release/doc/?at=default or on your PC to res_mods\mods\shared_resources\xvm\doc to find up-to-date list of available macros.

 

1. The {{turret}} macro.

2. Yes.

3. Not sure what you want to compare.

4. No. Use Python macros for this.

oh, thank you very much!!

 

edit: it seems like {{turret}} shows only if it's the stock turret or not, some vehicle has more than 2 turrets, so I cannot use that to decide which turret they use (to show the correct alpha dmg they have)

edit2: I'm done with it, used the python macro and it was easy, thanks for the help (again)!
