No go opfor area?

[stephen271276 10]

Is there a way to have a "Safe Zone" for blufor in a mission?

I have a patrol script running and ambient combat but want an area in the city where no opfor will spawn or enter is this possible via a marker?

Maybe something like this:

if (!isServer) exitwith {};
private ["_trigger","_area"];

_trigger = _this select 0;

_area = list _trigger;

while {true} do {
   {
       if ((side _x == east) && (_x in _area)) then {
       sleep 5;
       deleteVehicle _x;
   };
   } foreach allunits;
   sleep 5;
};

You seem to be as stupid as your avatar looks like... :D

Sorry... ;)

Maybe it took that long to make a workable answer? Which still doesn't look perfect wrt indentation :D

Sorry too ;) But it was kinda funny.

What could be the intention to post useless nonsense here like you did ?

FPDR

@ CarlGustaffa

Hey, just ask the shop owner of how annoyed he is each time by Mister Man! :D

One of the best is: http://the-english-spot.blogspot.com/2008/10/humor-spot-04-little-britain-looking.html (

Because we asked those editing topics to be diggable even a long time after they were posted, contrary to the others. So no that's not stupid, a little weird maybe but surely useful.

Any questions?

Just read it.

Obviously something significant was added here. PERIOD.

...unless something significant is being added.

That doesn`t include significant bullshit like that code. E.g.: He didn`t lost any word that he uses a trigger that have to be set to ANY and REPEATEDLY. Otherwise his "script" won`t work or only one time. And how to start the "script"? Where do i have to put it in? How do i start it? What happens to vehicles or planes entering the area? Questions over questions...

And how does it looks like if AI enter a trigger and it will simply be deleted? :eek:

It`s only bullshit answered to an eight months old question.

:cool:

@ Buliwyf

Sorry, but many of your post's here are pretty useless one-liners like:

:rolleyes:

...so yeah, i dont care anyway why you are so stubbornly posting stuff here (no other problems ??) without adding any useful (not that i expected anything from you).

My post was just a quick idea (i dont even looked at the date) after searching the forums for a "Safe-Zone" script. I thought maybe someone would post a better version or idea...but clearly not you. :o

Goodnight.

I recently did it this way, much better then just deleting them:

You will need two triggers with (most likely) the same size !

One with condition OPFOR present and repeatedly, name it a1.

The other one grouped with the player group, repeatedly, with the name a2 and On Act:

nul=[a1, a2, mygroup] execVM "safeZone.sqf";

Now name the player group with mygroup = group this inside the leaders init.

if (!isServer) exitwith {};

private ["_trigger","_area","_grpPlayer","_trigger2","_area2"];

_trigger = _this select 0;
_trigger2 = _this select 1;
_grpPlayer = _this select 2;

_area = list _trigger;
_area2 = list _trigger2;

scopeName "main";
while {true} do { 
   if ({_x in _area2} count units _grpPlayer > 0) then {
       {
           if ((side _x == east) && (_x in _area)) then {
               sleep 2 + random 3;
	        hintSilent "OPFOR stopped";
               _x disableAI "MOVE";
               if (((random 1) >= 0.4) && (unitPos _x == "UP")) then {
                   _x setUnitPos "Middle";
               } else {
                   _x setUnitPos "Down";
               };
           };
       } foreach allunits;
   };
   scopeName "break";
   if ({_x in _area2} count units _grpPlayer == 0) then {
       {
           if ((side _x == east) && (_x in _area)) then {
               _x enableAI "MOVE";
               _x setUnitPos "UP";
           };
       } foreach allunits;
       breakTo "main";
   };
};
hintSilent "OPFOR can move";

OPFOR AI will enter the area but only a few meters and then be stopped. They will be able to move again if the player group leaves the safe-zone area (and stopped again if they enter again).

I think thats a good way to keep enemy AI at some distance to a extraction point or something.
