Nikiller's scripts pack

[Blitzen 10]

Nikiller,

I added new dummy units for resistance, west, and east and now it works great!!

I can see how this script could be really flexible and fun to use--especially in advance and capture style missions. For example, if you wanted the player to capture three towns in successive order, you could create three UPS zones and multiple spawn points per city. Then you could create a big trigger that would execute the spawn script when the player got a certain distance from the city! Muahahahah! :cool:

Would you be able to add this additional script that would add inifinite respawn/more respawns? That would be sooo cool because because you could specify how many "waves" of AI groups the player would have to fight through.

Thank you for your help!

This script delete trigger after activation. It saves a lot of performance.

...

NB: Never use this this script with repeatidly trigger.

Just wondering, why shouldn't I use it on triggers activated repeatedly? Didn't notice anything harmful in it.

hi,

Just wondering, why shouldn't I use it on triggers activated repeatedly? Didn't notice anything harmful in it.

You are right it technically deletes repeatedly trigger but your trigger will not work anymore after it has been deleted. Let's say you have a minefield in a tigger set to repeatedly, if a unit activate it and the trigger is deleted after activation your minefield will be deactivated and others units will be able to walk in the minefield without problem. Another example, if you use repeatedly trigger to count if one side dominate the other in a town the trigger will be deleted after the first activation and will not do his count job anymore. Of course, you can delete repeatedly triggers, but ONLY if you don't need it anymore.

I made a little demo with the minefield example to show how it works: DEMO LINK

@Blitzen: Sorry mate I forgot about you request. I had a look and unfortunetly I fail to find a way to add more respawn to spawnsquad.sqf. For that I will have to write another spawning script from scratch.

Whoa! That was FAST! But(there must be at least one BUT...) it seems that the other links arent working as well... :butbut:

Nikiller, I also wondered if you could fix all the dead links. Thanks in advance.

[nikiller 18]

hi,

I will check all links one by one tomorrow and fix them if needed.

Thanks. Great scripts. Wish there were other scripts to reduce ai accuracy (I've posted this in another thread) aside form HD.

hi,

This script spawn a random minefield in a square. You can see the mines then you can avoid them and cross the minefield if you are careful. You can set the size of the square and the mines number. If one of the victim defined in the array is less than 1m from the mine it will blow up and shrapnels will be ejected around. I tested it with a 100x200 square and 500 mines without too much performance impact. This script can easily be used with mine addons like CoC.

Addon needed: N/A

Addon suggested: CoC mines

Version: 1.0

Required version: OFP 1.96 or CWA (ofp 1.99)

Description: This script spawn a random minefield in a square. You can set the size of the square and the mines number

Note:If you want a lot of mines it could take a bit time to spawn (0.1sec/mine)

Good stuff.

Coincidentally, I was finally going to script some IED stuff for WW4 EXT but this might save me some work.
