Take no damage if no vehicle is within 25m

[azzdayz]

Hey guys, I am needing some help to disable this. I want to be able to have a script execute "HelicopterExploSmall" or "HelicopterExploBig". Doesn't matter I am wanting it to cause damage regardless what I use. I have found though that damage is canceled if there is no vehicle within 25m of the explosion.

My question is how can I disable that? I found the below code in fn_damageHandler.sqf, but I tried commenting out the whole code and I was still not taking damage.

        _vehicleArray = nearestObjects [(getPosATL (vehicle _unit)),["Car","Air","Motorcycle","Ship","Tank"],3];
        {if (typeOf _x == "ParachuteWest") then {_vehicleArray = _vehicleArray - [_x];};} count _vehicleArray;
        {
            if ((speed _x > 10) or (speed _x < -8)) exitwith { dayz_HitBy = _x; };
        } count _vehicleArray;
    };

    if (!isNull dayz_HitBy && vehicle player == player) then { _ammo = "RunOver"; };
    if ((_hit == "Legs") AND {(_ammo == "RunOver")}) then { dayz_HitBy = objNull; };

    //If a vehicle is moveing faster then 15 lets register some kind of direct damage rather then relying on indirect/physics damage.

Commenting out those two lines didn't seem to work. The explosion goes off, but no damage. I have infiSTAR turned off for now to make sure that's not blocking anything. Is there something else I could be using other than  "HelicopterExploSmall" that would work?

SOLVED - Your edits did work, but my safezone script was overriding it. That also explains why everything I was trying was doing nothing ;/ Thanks
