Remind me of "co_22 Seize ground insurgency style (enemy occupation)":

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?147977-co_22-Seize-ground-insurgency-style-(enemy-occupation)/page7

Is this missions somehow connected to the other occupation? Sound like the same idea, but with side missions and up-to-date.

[bangabob 41]

Its similar to Insurgency. Of course it will like other insurgency clones to a degree.

Although the only thing other than that which is connected it is the name. The AI scripts are made by myself and the insurgency respawn was made because i requested help with it.

Try it out. Let me know what you think

[Beerkan 71]

I'm getting errors with the TaskHint. Also the repair script failed to work on 2nd or 3rd attempt. I entered the repair area, but nothing happened.

[bangabob 41]

Okay thanks for letting me know about the repair trigger. Be as simple as clicking repeatedly in the trigger though.

As for the Taskhint... Well as far as im aware no one has made a fully JIP task system for ARMA III yet. Taskmaster still does the job... for now

Edit : Tested repair pad and it works fine for me.

[Predator.v2 10]

For some reason, when we start the mission on our "dedicated -server" no enemy AI is spawning. Everything seems to be fine, when we host locally.

First time ever, we had this kind of bug with our dedicated server.

[bangabob 41]

Thats very strange. I havnt been able to test any of my scripts on a dedi.

Id recommend looking in the EOS folder and find the occupationtile.sqf . That script is responsible for spawning all AI.

Let me know what you think could be the issue. (I have no idea about dedicated servers otherwise i'd look myself)

It may also be the occupationinit.sqf

Inside that there is

if(not isServer) exitWith{};

You could try removing this and see if it spawns the AI

[mantls 2]

Uhm,

I didn't look at the whole script but if your remove the "if (!isServer) exithwith {};" then every client might spawn the AI, since it gets executed on every machine.

EDIT: Alright, sorry fot that. :)

Yes you didnt look at the whole script. If you did you would know that i was on about a different script AND even if i was talking about the AI spawning the script has !isserver checks before spawning any units anyway

[Predator.v2 10]

I am not so much into scripting. Maybe you can edit/test the mission and release a "dedicated" version of it?

I will look into it once we get a dedicated exe from BI

You should make the stuff for Sides not spawn until ready/called...

Dirty Haz

Can u explain. Why should i spawn the vehicles when the objectives called. That means that you will be getting side objectives to destroy things in areas that you've already cleared. Not to mention the inherent issues that arise with spawning vehicles in 'random' locations.

[aviatormoser 6]

Bob,

Great mission! Definitely one of my favorites. I like adding custom weapons to the ammobox (except not all addon guns are apparently compatible with virtual ammo box :( .

Keep up the good work. I'd like to see how this mission progresses.

[HazJ 1288]

If you go to a Side location and complete it before its time, it will bug out... I have used and modified your Side Missions to do what I said, maybe I can send you an example?

Description amended

[Predator.v2 10]

Has anyone else tried to run this mission on a dedicated server? I still don't get AI spawning on dedicated servers.

I'd love to play this mission on our server group, but like that it is useless to us. :-/

I don't know why it doesn't work on dedicated servers. It uses my EOS script so if you know how to make that work in a dedicated environment then the mission will

[Beerkan 71]

lovin your recent update there Banga using Dirty Hazs' Side missions. Any chance you can add the odd random patrolling O_Ka60_F on the map to take out, every 20 or 30 minutes?

The skies feel a little empty without them.
