Deploy Static weapon / object [script]

demonized · November 16, 2010

Deploy Static v 1.1

This script adds one or several actions to the player unit, wich then can deploy a static weapon or object of choice on the battlefield.

can be used to build mg tripods, mortars, sandbags, really any kind of object ingame.

it works much like mg nests machinegunners can deploy in domination 1.57.

though code is not based on that code.

player can have several actions, but only one object can be built at a time.

need to remove old object before building a new one, also only the building player can remove it, but anyone can use it.

there is a few options you can set in top of script, explanations in script below.

examples and instructions also in top of script.

Fully tested in SP and MP editor with respawns, untested on dedi server.

script auto adjusts to SP or MP games.

Note: player units must be named (in the unit placement window, name part top right), i think i had some issues when using non named player units.

Notes:

Should be fully JIP compatible.

Atm if a player builds a object and leaves the game in MP, the object will remain until end of mission or that player joins again and removes it.

also each object gets a marker with descriptive name on it so it can be easily located.

JIP on markers is unknown, when someone gets it tested on a dedi server, i can fix that, probably needs to gather all markers in a global array and create them again for any JIPs.

Changelog v 1.1

* added multiple actions option.

* added custom relative dir option.

v 1.0

* first release.

Bugs / Issues

* once a static is built, some of them (those from the weapon bags collection) can be disasembled into bags, most likely this will break the script, workaround is being worked on, probably enough to have a small script run on the object and then rename bags if such a thing happens.

save this below as deployweapon.sqf in your mission folder

/*
Deploy static v 1.1
by Demonized

place this in init.sqf
DMZ_Deploy_Static = [];

Name the unit, place this in init of unit:
_null = ["className_of_weapon",this,"start"] execVM "deployweapon.sqf";
replace className_of_weapon with any kind of static weapon of choise.

example:
_null = ["M2HD_mini_TriPod_US_EP1",this,"start"] execVM "deployweapon.sqf";
wait for "build meter" to be filled, or raise weapon or move to abort, applies for bot assembling and disasembling.

optional:
	relative position: by default direction of object is same as player (forward) 0 - 360 is valid values.
	add after "className" a direction in relation to player to force direction of static, for example for bunkers, sandbags etc.
	example object facing right of player:
	_null = [["className_of_weapon",90],this,"start"] execVM "deployweapon.sqf";

	additional actions, add option for player to deploy numerous types of statics, note only one can be deployed at a time.
	add in extra classnames in a array [["className_of_weapon1",direction],["className_of_weapon2"]] direction is optional, only use if you wish another direction than the player.
	example 3 total options for player, where first and 2 object has default direction forward from player, nr 3 has right of player (90)
	_null = [[["TOW_TriPod_US_EP1"],["M2HD_mini_TriPod_US_EP1"],["M252_US_EP1",90]],this,"start"] execVM "deployweapon.sqf";

Script is compatible with SP and MP missions.
Not tested on dedi server but should be ok.
Also designed to handle JIP, but again untested on dedi server.
I have no idea if it will work on Arma 2 alone, created using Arma2 CO.

save this below as deployweapon.sqf in your mission folder.

Very nice Script Demonized!

Thank-you for making it!

I'll be able to throw this on a dedi server soon, and I can tell you what the problems maybe.

This looks great Demonized, ill dl and check it out.

Thanks.

1para{god-father} · July 30, 2010

WOW nice work !

Ill test as well on dedi tomorrow!

Hello I have goggled after a script like for a long time and I found this and just want to tell you that it works fine. I have a question: Is there a way to make you able to place more then just one object or set a limit? as I'm working on a survival map there you are defending a small town and it's going to be MP.

Yes you can place more then one static weapon, you need to edit a few little things.

THis is my edited version:

*I have changed sqf name and the unit name in the script so will have to change that back. The unit name in this script is 'Eng1'.
