nikiller 18 Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) hi, For mission makers who are tired to preview their mission 100 times when they want to place a unit inside a building here is a good solution.

nikiller 18 Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) hi, @controlled chopper crash:Good script! Is it possible to make chopper spin not only horizontally but also roll a little? Would make the falling down more :) Sorry for slow answer but I didn't saw your post :rolleyes:. Nice crash vid :eek: but unfortunetly it's not possible to do that in ofp with setDir or it is above my scripting knowledge. SetDir command is a 2 dimensions command it means that I can only make the chopper turn horizontally. Maybe with setPos, which is 3 dimension command and some trigo calculations, I will have a look later if I don't forget :D. Problem if I make the crash more realistic is the landing zone becomes unpredicable and the choper may be destroyed on a tree, a rock or whatever object. I think you can force the chopper to land where you want but it will look ugly especially in MP. Here's a modified and more realistic version of the script but the landing zone becomes unpredicable and the choper may be destroyed. You can tweak the values to obtain what you want but please make a note that it is a modified version in the script header. You can use the same demo as before just replace the old version by this one. controled_crash.sqs ;************************************************************************************************************************************************ ;Controled Crash Script by Nikiller v0.9b modified version version to make the crash more realistic but LZ is unpredicable and the chopper may be destroyed ;Make a chopper crash and cargo survive ;Note: Place a game logic named server on the map ;[unitName] exec "scriptName.sqs" ;************************************************************************************************************************************************ if nik_host then {} else {goto "ende"} _v = _this select 0 _rate=0 _d=driver _v _g=gunner _v _l="l" _delay=0.01 _rnd=random 2 _velrnd=2+random 2 _velad=-0.2+random 0.4 ? _rnd>0 && _rnd<1: _factor=2+random 2 ? _rnd>1 && _rnd<2: _factor=-2-random 2 #l ~_delay if (alive _v) then {} else {goto "ende"} _vel=velocity _v _dir=direction _v _v setDir (_dir+_factor) _v setVelocity [(_vel select 0)+_velad,(_vel select 1)+_velad,-(2+_velrnd+_rate)] _rate = _rate + .01 if (getPos _v select 2>0.5) then {goto _l} _v setFuel 0 _v setVelocity [0,0,-0.5] _v setDammage 0.7 {_x setDammage 1} forEach [_d,_g] #ende exit @All: AI kidnap player script will release in the next days when I find a bit time to make a serious testing session. cya.

nikiller 18 Posted January 15, 2012 (edited) hi, This script randomly set a unit face. It 's not very usefull with default BIS faces since there's allready random faces via the config.cpp. But it can be very usefull if you want to use an addon's faces with another addon (i.e using taleb faces on WW4 insurgency). You can do that by editing the face.sqf array with the addon face names you want use.

nikiller 18 Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) hi, Hi .. Looking for a Script for any side to join the other in addaction.Think of it like: Player is captured , and is given choice of going west, est or res(GUR) and ... at any point .. can re-use addaction to leave said side to join another ... Thanks LFH If I understand you right you want to be able to change a unit's side using an addAction command. Unfortunetly it's not possible to change a unit's side during game in ofp or it is above my knowledges. Even if you join another side group (i.e: West unit join East group) then units from this group will kill you since you keep your side. The 2 cases a unit's side changes during game are: - When the unit dies his side becomes civilian. - When the unit kills too much friendlies, empty vehicles, civilians then his rating value decrease . When his rating value reach -2000 then his side becomes enemy and the unit is attacked by everyone. You can change unit's side to enemy by using addRating command (i.e: this addRating -3000 in the unit's init field). You can check which side is a unit with this line hint format ["%1", side unitName] If you wan to know more about side: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/side cya. Nikiller.

Blitzen 10 Posted January 27, 2012 Im really diggin these scripts. I especially want to check out the random pos within a building script. Any chance of piling them all together in a rar/zip file? Also, do you know of any respawn scripts that, upon spawn, will execute the urban spawn script and will delete dead bodies? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ww2weasel 10 Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) If I understand you right you want to be able to change a unit's side using an addAction command. Unfortunetly it's not possible to change a unit's side during game in ofp or it is above my knowledges. Even if you join another side group (i.e: West unit join East group) then units from this group will kill you since you keep your side. Technically you are 100% correct. But try using the setcaptive command. Set the unit to captive/prisoner then: player setCaptive true from a script or trigger: [player] join grpNull ~1 [player] join east_unit to switch back to West: [player] join grpNull ~1 [player] join west_man ~1 player setcaptive false Will any enemy shoot at you if your east - prolly not. So more scripting would be needed. possibly removing setCaptive toggle states. But it would have to be a highly delicate balance - or your own side shoots you. So this method recommended for specialized mission making. Edited January 27, 2012 by WW2Weasel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nikiller 18 Posted January 29, 2012 hi, Nikiller would you be willing to re-upload your AI spawn demo mission to a different site? Ol' Uncle Sam wasnt too happy with the previous one....Thanks! Damn! I have to reupload all the demo :butbut:. Thx for the tip Blitzen ;) new spawn squad link: http://www.mediafire.com/?sv7lcol35aor64z Link also updated in the spawn squad post. Sorry didn't saw your last post. UPS in the spawn_squad.sqf is possible but it needs some modifications and it will not be MP compatible anymore. I will write a more specific script in the next days to make the spawned squad execute UPS and open a new post for that to don't get people confused :). For the all in one pack that's a good idea. I allready thought about it but I was too lazy. I will do it soon. cya. Nikiller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for working on it! EDIT: I love your building position script! The days of finding out building position numbers have past! You can easily place soldiers within an entire city by using this script and increasing the AI's placement radius--its even more awesome in that its random everytime!

nikiller 18 Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) hi, This script spawn a custom squad and execute UPS. you can set behaviour, combat mode, init, formation, direction, rank and skill. It also delete dead bodies after 120 seconds but you can change the delay in spawnsquad_ups.sqf IMPORTANT: To avoid spawn lags be sure that one model of each units spawned is placed somewhere on the map. This units don't need to be alive then put them in the sea if you want. Addon needed: N/A Addon suggested: WW4 modpack 2.5 Version: 1.0 By: Nikiller Credits: Surpher and Nikiller MP compatable: No (because of UPS) Required version: OFP 1.96 or CWA (ofp 1.99) Description: this script spawn a custom squad, execute UPS and mission maker can set skill, behaviour, formation, combat mode and so on. installation: put the ai folder in your mission folder and read the HOW TO. Ask questions I will answer. Note: for performance purpose I strongly recommand to put the spawned unit model somewhere on the map to avoid spawn lag. HOW TO: - First, you have to preprocessFile the spawnsquad_ups function in the init.sqs or in any scripts called from init.sqs without delay. example: nik_fspawnsquad=preprocessFile "ai\spawn_manager\spawnsquad_ups.sqf" - Second, you have to define an array containing the type of units you want to spawn, their init field (have a look here to understand better), their skill and their rank. squadName=[["typeOf",number,"parameterNotUsed","unitInitField",skill,"rank"]] example 1: nik_sq1=[["OfficerW",1,"sld","this addWeapon {NVGoggles}",0.9,"SERGEANT"],["SoldierWB",4,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["SoldierWG",4,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["SoldierWMG",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"]] In this example you will define a squad with 1 officer, with "this addWeapon {NVGoggles}" in init field, a skill of 0.9 and a rank of sergeant + 4 soldiers, nothing in init field, a skill of 0.7 and a rank of corporal + 2 machinegunners nothing in the init field a skill of 0.7 and a rank of corporal" example 2: nik_sq2=[["SoldierWSaboteurPipe",12,"sld","this setCaptive true",0.9,"SERGEANT"]] In this example you define a squad of 12 blackOp with setCaptive in init field,a skill of 0.9 and rank of sergeant. example 3: nik_sq3=[["SoldierWG36a",2,"sld","",0.95,"SERGEANT"],["SoldierWG36a",8,"sld","",0.9,"CORPORAL"],["SoldierWSniper",2,"sld","",0.9,"CORPORAL"]] In this example you will define a squad with 2 g36a soldiers, nothing in init field, a skill of 0.95 and rank of sergeant + 8 g36a soldiers, nothing in init field, a skill of 0.9 and rank of corporal + 2 snipers nothing in init field, a skill of 0.9 and rank of corporal. NB: you can use a squad number as much as ofp engine allow. If you spawn more than 63 groups per side the squads above 63 will not spawn. - Third, you have to define an array with the squad name defined in the array above, the spawn marker position (it must be a marker), the unit name from every others are spawned (this unit MUST exist or the squad won't be created, this unit can be the same for every squads), the squad behaviour, the squad combat mode, the squad formation, the UPS marker where the squad will patrol and the squad direction.

Blitzen 10 Posted February 2, 2012 I just gave your UPS spawn script a quick glance and I have a few questions... 1) Is there anyway you can change which groups/units are spawned? For example how could I spawn WW4 units/groups, etc? 2) Is there anyway you can spawn units via a unit's init line? That way I could edit the spawn parameters in-game and could move spawn points in-game-->I wanna use gamelogics as spawn points :) 3) I assume that this would'nt work with vehicles....? Thank you for making it! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nikiller 18 Posted February 3, 2012 hi, @ all: I included an HOW TO in the spawn squad UPS post. Please read it first. 1) Is there anyway you can change which groups/units are spawned? For example how could I spawn WW4 units/groups, etc? Yes of course, you have to change the typeOf unit in the squad array (first array). Have a look in the WW4 documentation you will find all the classNames you need (weapons, units...). example: nik_sq1=[["WW4_MOTSquadLeader",1,"sld","this addWeapon {NVGoggles}",0.9,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_MOTRifleman",4,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTMachinegun",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTGrenadier",4,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"]] 2) Is there anyway you can spawn units via a unit's init line? That way I could edit the spawn parameters in-game and could move spawn points in-game-->I wanna use gamelogics as spawn points I don't really see the point of using an unit's init field :confused:, it's not very userfriendly environment to script but it can work (not tested). BTW, I strongly recommand to use a text editor to call the scripts. Don't use gamelogics or it won't work. Use empty markers instead ;). Don't forget to press markers or you will not see them. 3) I assume that this would'nt work with vehicles....? You are right it doesn't work with vehicles. I will have to write another script for that. :) cya. Nikiller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blitzen 10 Posted February 4, 2012 First off, thank you very much for all of your help thus far :D Now, I've got a tricky one for you... I've edited the spawned units to be WW4 units per your instructions; however, these spawned units dont seem to engage at all? Its almost as if they have setcaptive true turned on because its like they're ghosts. The spawned groups dont seem to notice/engage each other (even after walking right by one another) and regular, non-spawned units wont engage them either. Any ideas?? :confused: I've also got 3 more quick questions: 1) What does the "sld" parameter mean? 2) I dont understand what the Nik_dummy is for 3) Is this script an infinite or limited respawn system?

nikiller 18 Posted February 4, 2012 (edited) hi, First off, thank you very much for all of your help thus far :D No problem, better to ask questions than copy and paste without any clue how it works. I understand that this script is a bit complex to use but it is also very flexible and powerful. From one unit you can populate the whole island without any performance impact of course if you use smart timing. Without modification you can spawn a crowd of civilians or simulate a big battle. I've edited the spawned units to be WW4 units per your instructions; however, these spawned units dont seem to engage at all? Its almost as if they have setcaptive true turned on because its like they're ghosts. The spawned groups dont seem to notice/engage each other (even after walking right by one another) and regular, non-spawned units wont engage them either. Any ideas?? :confused: I know what is wrong, I should have explain you before but I become old and I forget things :). Your problem is that you are using the same dummy unit for each sides, it means that each spawned units are the same side and will never engage each others. In the first demo I uploaded, the dummy unit is at north Nogova airport (little island) and is a west unit so every squads spawned are west even if it's east models. Then to fix it you have to spawn east squad from east dummy unit, west squad from west dummy unit and resistance squad from resistance dummy unit. so your init_ai.sqs will look like this: ;************************************************* ****** ;AI Init Script by Nikiller v0.9b ;Note: Place a game logic named server on the map ;contact: nikillerofp@hotmail.fr ;[] exec "scriptName.sqs" ;************************************************* ****** if nik_host then {} else {goto "ende"} ;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; Spawn squad ;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nik_fspawnsquadups=preprocessFile "ai\spawn_manager\spawnsquad_ups.sqf" ~1 nik_west_sq1=[["WW4_WARRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_WARAutorifleman",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL "],["WW4_WARGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] nik_west_sq2=[["WW4_WARRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_WARAutorifleman",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL "],["WW4_WARGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] nik_west_sq3=[["WW4_WARRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_WARAutorifleman",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL "],["WW4_WARGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_WARRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] nik_east_sq1=[["WW4_MOTRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_MOTMachinegun",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] nik_east_sq2=[["WW4_MOTRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_MOTMachinegun",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] nik_east_sq3=[["WW4_MOTRifleman",1,"sld","",0.7,"SERGEANT"],["WW4_MOTMachinegun",2,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTGrenadier",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTMedic",2,"sld","",0.7,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRifleman",4,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"],["WW4_MOTRocket",1,"sld","",0.5,"CORPORAL"]] ~5 [nik_west_sq1,"west_sq1_mark",nik_WestDummy,"Aware","red","vee"," nik_town_mark",0] call nik_fspawnsquadups ~0.5 [nik_west_sq2,"west_sq2_mark",nik_WestDummy,"Aware","red","vee"," nik_town_mark",0] call nik_fspawnsquadups ~0.5 [nik_west_sq3,"west_sq3_mark",nik_WestDummy,"Aware","red","vee"," nik_town_mark",0] call nik_fspawnsquadups ~0.5 [nik_east_sq1,"east_sq1_mark",nik_EastDummy,"Aware","red","wedge" ,"nik_town_mark",180] call nik_fspawnsquadups ~0.5 [nik_east_sq2,"east_sq2_mark",nik_EastDummy,"Aware","red","wedge" ,"nik_town_mark",180] call nik_fspawnsquadups ~0.5 [nik_east_sq3,"east_sq3_mark",nik_EastDummy,"Aware","red","wedge" ,"nik_town_mark",180] call nik_fspawnsquadups #ende exit Here's a demo to show how it works: DEMO LINK 1) What does the "sld" parameter mean? It's a not used parameter leave it as it is. 2) I dont understand what the Nik_dummy is for It is the unit from where all the others will be spawned. In ofp you need at least one unit present on the map to spawn others units. In ArmA2 not. In the demo the dummy units (east and west) are in the north nogova airport. I suggest to put those units in safe place on a little island far away from the action with this stop true in their init field and maybe this setCaptive true too. 3) Is this script an infinite or limited respawn system? In the demo respawn is limited to 1, it means that groups will spawn only one time. But it can becomes inifinitive if you use for example a script who check if no units in the group are left and then execute spawn script to spawn a new one. cya. Nikiller.
