Custom namelist sorting

In the radar module it is possible to implement your own sorting algorithm for the namelist.

In order to activate the sorting, choose the sorting option "Custom" in the radar module CBA settings. The internal value of it is diwako_dui_radar_sortType = "custom". Also keep in mind diwako_dui_radar_sortType is a global setting!

DUI will look into the missionNamespace variable diwako_dui_radar_customSort if a custom sorting function is defined. As return value DUI expects an array of units and will display them in the order of appearance.

Example for a sorting algorithm:

diwako_dui_radar_customSort = {
    // _grp: array of units that needs sorting (careful SQL could be removed from the array)
    // _player: the current unit the player is controling
    // DUI expects an array as return value. e.g. [_unit1, _unit2, etc]
    params ["_grp", "_player"];
    _grp = _grp apply { [_x getVariable ["ACE_Name", name _x], _x] };
    _grp sort false;
    _grp apply { _x select 1 };
};

If something else than code is found in the variable, DUI will not sort the names at all. If a wrong output format is found for the return value it will display a message using CBA notify and will not sort the names in the list.
