Get Mission Setup Data (Flowgraph Node)

Overview

• Node Name: Get Mission Setup Data
• Category: provider
• File: extensions/flowgraph/nodes/mission/getSetupData.lua

Provides values from the mission setup modules, including player vehicle configuration and traffic settings chosen during mission setup.

Pin Schema

Output Pins

How It Works

1. The node reads self.mgr.activity.setupModules - the mission's setup module data.
2. If the activity or setup data is nil, the node returns early (no outputs set).
3. Vehicle data comes from setupModules.vehicles:
   • usePlayerVehicle → boolean coerced
   • playerModel, playerConfig, playerConfigPath → strings with empty fallbacks
4. Traffic data comes from setupModules.traffic:
   • useTraffic, usePrevTraffic → boolean coerced
   • amount, activeAmount, respawnRate → numbers with 0 fallback

Lua Example

-- In a mission flowgraph:
-- Connect this node's outputs to conditionally spawn vehicles or traffic
-- useOriginalPlayerVeh → Branch node → skip vehicle spawn if true
-- useTraffic → Branch node → enable/disable traffic spawning
-- trafficAmount → Traffic spawner node's amount input

Key Dependencies

• self.mgr.activity.setupModules - mission setup module data structure
• _flowgraph_createNode() - standard flowgraph node registration

Additional Methods

C:work()

Main work function called each frame/tick when the node is active.
