Enemy occupation system (eos)

[spartan190 1]

I used it in my Testmission and had no problems with it. Also nice that you now did add the getMarkerSize function and a SafeZone var. Works really nice just need to find out which Safezone size fits best for me :)

Great work keep going on :)

Thx for this amazing script, simply loving all the new editions :)

I have a question though.

Have you ever tryed making this run on a HC?

i would love to make a mission with a huge amount of EOS markers and massive reinforcements, running from a HC.

Im thinking simply make the eos_OpenMe.sqf start on the HC, but it cant be that simple can it?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated :)

Cheers for this mate, I got it working with help and code customization by/from SPUn!

@BangaBob - Is that the only way to do it or?

Dirty Haz

Could you post the new code? Thank you very much :)

How to check when all markers are green?

I try it this way but it never triggers

_areas = ["mkr_1","mkr_2","mkr_3"]; //list of markers

[] spawn {
sleep 5;
waitUntil {{getMarkerColor _x == "ColorGreen";} count _areas == count _areas};
[["tsk1", "SUCCEEDED"], "BIS_fnc_TaskSetState", true, true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP;
[["End1", true, true], "BIS_fnc_endMission", true, true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP;
};

Thanks for your help

Dont you need to have a foreach command.

Such as

{
waituntil {{getMarkerColor _x == "ColorGreen";}count _areas == count _areas};
}foreach _areas;

Thank you Bob, i`m so a noobie in scripting :)

Thank you Bob, i`m so a noobie in scripting :)

Also you dont need the "count _areas" command since the foreach command won't finish until all the colors turn green

 {
waituntil {getMarkerColor _x == "ColorGreen";};
}foreach _areas;
//PUT REWARDS ECT HERE

For some reason I cannot get it to work. I did all the steps and when I previewed my mission and open the map all I get are the markers in their default color, not red. Also AI aren't spawning. Here is my mission, it requires some mods: @CBA_A3, @FHQ_Accessories, @fhq_m4_a3, @mcc_sandbox_a3, @r3f_armes, RH Pistol pack 1.01-A3, and @rh_pdw_a3. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qwb8vtxvbk9laxv/NPyxjSlht9

Great work, it works but have a script error message in the middle of the screen! I get a error. Line 258 "undefined variable in expression: _debugh int" . I had the same problem in version 1.4. Any solutions?

I don't get that script error. Are you using the dev build of ArmA 3?

If not then all i can suggest is going through all the eos files.

find "_debugHint=true" and removed the // before each one and replace with "_debugHint=false"

If the markers aren't changing colour that means the script has not detected your markers.

Make sure you use "" on all your markernames. Eg. ["markerName","anothername"], ect

I'm getting this error while hosting a dedicated server:

Error in expression <sZones=(_this select 0);_eosType=(_this select 1);
_sideArray=(_this select 2);
>
 Error position: <select 1);
_sideArray=(_this select 2);
>
 Error Zero divisor
File mpmissions\__cur_mp.Stratis\eos\eos_init.sqf, line 3

I hope someone can help me out, i can't find the error.

This is how i call it:

null=[["mr_zone_1","mr_operationzone"],1,[0,1,250,0]] execVM "eos\eos_Init.sqf";

or

[["mr_zone_1","mr_operationzone"],1,0,1,25,1] call callEosZone;

tried both ways tho

Just given it a test on my dedicated and i get no script errors.

I have this code inside my eos_Openme.sqf .

null=[["extraAI_1","extraAI_2"],1,[0,1,250,0]] execVM "eos\eos_Init.sqf";

Note: Its important to use " and not “ with scripting. It may be my fault as in the readme microsoft word uses “†in the examples

Alright, was able to reproduce the error. If you don't mind, i'll send you a .pbo file

http://www.speedshare.org/download.php?id=64E14BB91

Maybe the size of the marker or that the markers are overlapping cause the problem?

Hmm. I see. Thats very weird. The zones still act how they are supposed too. I dont know why its showing an error though
