falconx1 13 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) untested but try this: //make a marker called "Attck" it's going to be the marker where ai is going to attack AttackLocation = getMarkerPos "Attck"; //---Loop forever while {true} do { // wat side to count? west east? spawn more AI when all east units dead waitUntil {({(side _x) == east} count allUnits) == 0}; //marker east vehocles spawn at VehicleSpawner = "yourmarker"; _grp1 = createGroup east; _grp1 = [markerPos VehicleSpawner, EAST, ["O_MRAP_02_hmg_F"], [], [], [0.25, 0.25]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; _wp0 = _grp1 addWaypoint [AttackLocation,0]; _wp0 setWaypointType "SAD"; _wp0 setWaypointFormation "LINE"; _wp0 setWaypointBehaviour "AWARE"; _wp0 setwaypointcombatmode "YELLOW"; _wp0 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; sleep 5; }; Edited July 28, 2013 by falconx1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zdowggg 1 Posted July 28, 2013 i dont understand most of what you just said sounds good but im new to this so could you exsplane step by step please ---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ---------- can you tell me the part ware i can make an ai vehicle respawn over and over and ill go from there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falconx1 13 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) while {true} do { //marker vehicles spawn at VehicleSpawner = "yourmarker"; //_grp1 = createGroup east; //you actually dont need this line of code _grp1 = [markerPos VehicleSpawner, EAST, ["O_MRAP_02_hmg_F"], [], [], [0.25, 0.25]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; sleep 5; }; every few seconds a vehicle with crew will spawn at a marker u made inside the editor. so open the editor and make a marker and name the marker "yourmarker" and make a file called init.sqf in your mission directory and place the code above Edited July 28, 2013 by falconx1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 564 Posted July 28, 2013 Orange text is just comments and not code being executed. This first line, as it says, creates a variable which is the position of the marker named "Attck". //make a marker called "Attck" it's going to be the marker where ai is going to attack AttackLocation = getMarkerPos "Attck"; This line (completed with the } after sleep at the end) means "keep doing this as long as true is true :) //---Loop forever while {true} do { This is what respawns your guys, it's waiting for there to be no more EAST units alive. The script waits here till everyone is dead. // wat side to count? west east? spawn more AI when all east units dead waitUntil {({(side _x) == east} count allUnits) == 0}; Now that everyone is dead we use this line to get the name of a marker where we want the bad guys to spawn on, "yourmarker" in this case. //marker east vehocles spawn at VehicleSpawner = "yourmarker"; These lines create a group of an Ifrit. _grp1 = createGroup east; _grp1 = [markerPos VehicleSpawner, EAST, ["O_MRAP_02_hmg_F"], [], [], [0.25, 0.25]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; These lines make a waypoint at the marker location we created at the top. _wp0 = _grp1 addWaypoint [AttackLocation,0]; _wp0 setWaypointType "SAD"; _wp0 setWaypointFormation "LINE"; _wp0 setWaypointBehaviour "AWARE"; _wp0 setwaypointcombatmode "YELLOW"; _wp0 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; This line waits 5 seconds, then checks for everyone to be dead. sleep 5; }; ---------- Post added at 04:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ---------- You could condense it down to this: while {true} do { waitUntil {({(side _x) == east} count allUnits) == 0}; sleep 5; grp = [getMarkerPos "heliBase", opfor, ["O_MRAP_02_hmg_F"], [], [], [0.25, 0.25]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; null = [grp, (getPos player)] call BIS_fnc_taskAttack; sleep 5; }; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kylania 564 Posted July 29, 2013 You've got all the code you need right there. If you wanted blufor instead of opfor and a hunter instead of an ifrit there's only a few things you need to change in the code. I've broken it down line by line so it should be pretty easy to tell what to change, give it shot. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doodle 10 Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) Please can someone help - I just cant get my head round respawning vehicles. I am using the code below to spawn a Gorgon, driver and gunner which then proceed to patrol round their waypoints. The $64,000 question is what would I need to add to this to make the vehicle respan afer it has been destroyed if (!isServer) exitWith {}; _con2GRP2 = createGroup EAST; _con2 = createVehicle ["O_APC_Wheeled_02_rcws_F", getMarkerPos "c1a", [],0,"NONE"]; _con2 setDir 280; _VarName = "con2"; _con2 SetVehicleVarName _VarName; call compile format["%1 = _con2", _VarName]; clearMagazineCargoGlobal _con2; clearWeaponCargoGlobal _con2; _con2pilot = _con2GRP2 createunit ["O_soldierU_AR_F", [0,0,1], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _VarName = "con2pilot2"; _con2pilot SetVehicleVarName _VarName; call compile format["%1 = _con2pilot", _VarName]; _con2pilot moveInDriver _con2; _con2pilot setCombatMode "BLUE"; _con2pilot setBehaviour "SAFE"; _con2pilot allowDamage true; _con2pilot setCaptive false; sleep 3.0; _con2gunner = _con2GRP2 createunit ["O_soldierU_AR_F", [0,0,1], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _VarName = "tp10"; _con2gunner SetVehicleVarName _VarName; call compile format["%1 = _con2gunner", _VarName]; _con2gunner moveInTurret [_con2, [0]]; _con2gunner setCombatMode "RED"; _con2gunner setBehaviour "SAFE"; _con2 lock true; _waypoint0 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1b",0]; _waypoint0 setwaypointtype "move"; _waypoint0 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint0 setWaypointSpeed "LIMITED"; _waypoint0 setWaypointBehaviour "SAFE"; _waypoint0 setWaypointFormation "LINE"; _waypoint0 setWaypointCombatMode "RED"; _waypoint0 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint1 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1c",0]; _waypoint1 setwaypointtype "move"; _waypoint1 setWaypointTimeout [300, 360, 420]; _waypoint1 setWaypointSpeed "LIMITED"; _waypoint1 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint2 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1d",0]; _waypoint2 setwaypointtype "Move"; _waypoint2 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint2 setWaypointSpeed "LIMITED"; _waypoint2 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint3 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1d",0]; _waypoint3 setwaypointtype "move"; _waypoint3 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint3 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; _waypoint3 setWaypointBehaviour "SAFE"; _waypoint3 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint4 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1e",0]; _waypoint4 setwaypointtype "move"; _waypoint4 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint4 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; _waypoint4 setWaypointBehaviour "SAFE"; _waypoint4 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint5 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1f",0]; _waypoint5 setwaypointtype "move"; _waypoint5 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint5 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; sleep 0.1; _waypoint6 = _con2GRP2 addwaypoint[getmarkerpos "c1a",0]; _waypoint6 setwaypointtype "cycle"; _waypoint6 setWaypointTimeout [0, 0, 0]; _waypoint6 setWaypointSpeed "NORMAL"; _waypoint6 setWaypointCompletionRadius 0; if (true) exitWith {}; Will be forever in your debt if someone can help with this - I am sure the answer is somewhere in the forums but I cant find it Thanks in advance Oh forget to mention this will be running on a dedi server Edited November 1, 2013 by Doodle Cos im forgetful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
