B2 Weapon Restriction Script NEW!

Tired of diver-sniper-antitank-Rambos ruining your server realistic gameplay? Here's simple solution.

This script allows to restrict weapons to certain soldier classes.

It also restricts 2 levels down the classtree, so you don't have to add all the scope variants to the list.

Be careful with the classnames, they are case sensitive.

Works with units and weapons added with mods.

Example (put in mission's init.sqf):

0 = [["B_soldier_AT_F","B_soldier_LAT_F"],["launch_NLAW_F","launch_RPG32_F","launch_Titan_base","launch_Titan_short_base"]] execVM "scripts\b2_restrictions.sqf";
0 = [["B_recon_M_F","B_sniper_F"],["srifle_GM6_F","srifle_LRR_F"]] execVM "scripts\b2_restrictions.sqf";
0 = [["B_recon_M_F","B_recon_JTAC_F","B_soldier_M_F","B_sniper_F"],["srifle_EBR_F","arifle_MXM_F"]] execVM "scripts\b2_restrictions.sqf";
0 = [["B_soldier_AR_F"],["LMG_Mk200_F","LMG_Zafir_F"]] execVM "scripts\b2_restrictions.sqf";
0 = [["B_diver_TL_F","B_diver_F"],["arifle_SDAR_F"]] execVM "scripts\b2_restrictions.sqf";

This restrict ATs, sniper and marksman rifles, LMGs and underwater weapons to respective classes.

B2 Check Pilot and Check Gunner Scripts

Made this two scritps for my missions, by combining them you can easily control vehicle restrictions.

CheckPilot works for any actual drivers/pilots/copilots in any vehicle, CheckGunner - for any gunners.

Example (put in mission's init.sqf):

["Helicopter","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";
["Heli_Attack_01_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";
["Heli_Attack_02_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";

This allows only Bluefor pilots to fly all helicopters and man gunner positions in Attack helis, but also won't restrict anyone from using turrets in Transport helis (I don't think you need 2 years in flight school to handle minigun). Same way it can be used for any other vehicles.

B2 Keep Gunner Script

Redone script from scratch with completely different principle.

Now it spawns co-pilot and gunners in designated number of turrets.

Useful, if you don't like seeing Transport helicopters flying defenceless just because nobody wants to sit by the minigun whole time.

Don't use for playable slots - players won't be able to leave the turret.

Execute from any vehicle init:

0 = [vehicle,crewSide(opt),crewNum(opt),crewInit(opt)] execVM "scripts\b2_keepGunner.sqf";

0 = [this] execVM "scripts\b2_keepGunner.sqf"; - will spawn 1 bluefor crewman,

crewSide: west (default), east, independent

crewNum: 1 (default), 2, 3 (default for Ghosthawks)

crewInit: init string for each crew member, default - empty

B2 Heli Door Script

Another simple script, that automatically opens GhostHawk doors while it's altitude is less then 8m and speed is less then 45 km/h.

Works pretty much same way as the landing gears.

To maintain door functionality after respawn - see example mission - Simple Vehicle Respawn Script works like a charm.

B2 Loadout Script NEW!

Ok, here's the big one.

This script simply gives preset loadout to any unit.

It could be BLUEFOR medic carrying GREENFOR LMG and OPFOR uniform, or OPFOR soldier in PG Services clothes carrying RH Mk18.

It consist of two major parts:

First, "Armies", where you can set types of weapons and gear used by each particular army.

Second, "Loadouts", which sets weapon, camo, backpack and amount of ammunition that will be carried by each class of any army.

Current version works with this addons:

NATO SF and Russian Spetsnaz Weapons

UK Special Forces

PG Services - Private Military Company

Addons support works this way:

Server should have same addons as players to have proper ammo in vehicles and boxes - default ammo will be loaded otherwise.

If player connects with supported mods, he will have mod stuff loaded.

If player connects with no mods, he will have preset loadout with BIS weapons. He won't see modded weapons or camo, but at least he won't be kicked straight away as if placed units or ammobox from mod in editor.

Execute from unit's init:

0 = [unit,class,army,silencers] execVM "scripts\b2_loadouts.sqf";

0 = [this,"grenadier","uksf",1] execVM "scripts\b2_loadouts.sqf"; - UKSF grenadier's loadout with silenced weapon

0 = [this,"medic","pmc"] execVM "scripts\b2_loadouts.sqf"; - PMC medic's loadout

0 = [this,"officer"] execVM "scripts\b2_loadouts.sqf"; - default army officer's loadout

0 = [this] execVM "scripts\b2_loadouts.sqf"; - default army/default loadout (soldier without backpack)

Currently there are one default-"oops-something-gone-wrong" army and two example armies:

"uksf" - United Kingdom Special Forces (supports massi's NATO Weapons and UK SFTG)

"pmc" - Private Military Contractors (supports massi's NATO Weapons and PG Services)

Classes:

"officer"

"grenadier"

"eod"

"lmg_gunner"

"marksman"

"rifleman_at"

"medic"

"sniper"

"spotter"

"pilot"

"crewman"

"diver"

"hunter" - for vehicles

Feel free to adjust "armies", individual loadouts and implemented mods to your particular unit's needs.

B2 Interactive Whiteboard Script WIP!

Well, name says it all. See example mission, to find out how it works.

It's based on this script from A2: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=15289

[X] in trigger exec field ( 0 = [X] execVM "intel\init.sqf"; ) controls board rotation.

0 means board will be facing south, while 90 - facing east.

It still has couple unsolved issues: only first player who joins the server able to control the Whiteboard, placing and rotation could be simplified, board flickering while loading next texture, lightsource not visible to other players etc.

Heli Door script works and looks great but is lost after Heli respawn.

Is there a way to rectify this?

My bad. Should be fixed now.

[ToM666 1]

My bad. Should be fixed now.

Thanks mate.

I've just been looking through the script to try and see what you changed and to my inexperienced eyes it still looks the same LOL?

Now I'm starting to wonder if I haven't set this up right.

I am only using the heli door script so reference the script below I haven't included any of this in my description.ext.

Should I be using the code below in the code box?

// JIP Check (This code should be placed first line of init.sqf file)
if (!isServer && isNull player) then {isJIP=true;} else {isJIP=false;};
if (!isDedicated) then {waitUntil {!isNull player && isPlayer player};};

{_x setvariable ["BIS_noCoreConversations", true, true]} foreach allunits;
enableSaving [false, false];
[] execVM "ca\Modules\MP\data\scripts\MPFramework.sqf";

Also this code below. Will that improve the graphics quality at distance?

setViewDistance 2000;
setTerrainGrid 50;

0 =["Helicopter","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";

0 =["Heli_Attack_01_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";

0 =["Heli_Attack_02_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";

0 =["Tank","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";

0 = ["Tank","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";

0 = ["Wheeled_APC_F","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";

[bl2ck dog 80]

Well, the only change is:

was

while {(alive _heli)} do {

became

while {(true)} do {

This makes script to run continuously, without checking is heli still alive or not.

---

// JIP Check (This code should be placed first line of init.sqf file)
if (!isServer && isNull player) then {isJIP=true;} else {isJIP=false;};
if (!isDedicated) then {waitUntil {!isNull player && isPlayer player};};
{_x setvariable ["BIS_noCoreConversations", true, true]} foreach allunits;
enableSaving [false, false];

That's not really needed, just part of "standard stuff" for my missions, disables AI chatter and saving.

---

[] execVM "ca\Modules\MP\data\scripts\MPFramework.sqf";

This one (along with CA folder) is only needed if you use Interactive Whiteboard script.

---

setViewDistance 2000;
setTerrainGrid 50;

That simply sets default viewdistance and grass setting for MP (in SP it overridden by configuration settings).

In this case: 2000m and grass is disabled.

---

0 =["Helicopter","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";
0 =["Heli_Attack_01_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";
0 =["Heli_Attack_02_base_F","B_Helipilot_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";
0 =["Tank","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf";
0 = ["Tank","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkGunner.sqf";
0 = ["Wheeled_APC_F","B_Crew_F"] execVM "scripts\b2_checkPilot.sqf"; 

That's examples of CheckPilot and CheckGunner scripts usage, don't need these if not using those scripts.

[ToM666 1]

Couldn't ask for a clearer more concise answer that :)

Just as a quick heads up. The script I was looking at I downloaded from armaholics this evening and it doesn't reflect the change. I didn't look at the one above so apologies for that.

Thanks mate and thanks for the script. I think it adds a really nice touch to the ghosthawkes that adds to the emersive game play.

[bl2ck dog 80]

ToM666, check latest sample mission (bottom of the first post) - there's example how to keep those doors operational after respawn.

Also, redone Keep Gunner Script from scratch with completele different principle.

hey buddy,

looks great and thanks for crediting me :)

your check pilot/gunner script sort of reminds me of domination :)

and adds that extra bit of realism,

very nice work

[djporternz 27]

A brilliant set of scripts there. Really like the interactive whiteboard.

Had a quick play with the heli door script to see what/how it was doing it's magic, and got out my big hammer and adapted it to also handle the other helos with doors. Code is probably not optimised as much as it could be, but feel free to use it or adapt it as you see fit.

Hi Bl2ck Dog!

since i am new to ArmA 3 and the scripting or implementing of scripts, i am in need of some direction, on how to make your Class Restriction script work. I did copy your example as you wrote in the missions init.sqf but were should i put the rest of the php code? When i follow the downloadlink i only get a pbo for stratis. Is this needed to be put into my arma root or on the server or in the missionfolder?

Would be great if you or someone else could help to enlighten me, so i can learn more and get it running.

[bl2ck dog 80]

Hey, lads. Sorry for late reply.

DJPorterNZ, thanks for your support, appreciate the work you've done!

Jazzman, mate, check updated sample missions, I've made .rar archives that could be viewed in editor. Simply unpack them into folders at Documents\Arma 3\missions.

Also, check new Weapon Restriction and Loadout Scripts!

[kremator 1065]

Nice set of scripts. Thankyou. Possible to add heli door as an little addon instead of a script please?

[bl2ck dog 80]

At the moment have no idea how to do that, but I'll look into it.

[kbone1341 10]

Great set of scripts; however, I am having an issue with the vehicle restrictions.

When I am a rifleman then switch classes, to a crewman, I still cannot crew a tank or apc. Is this because even though I switched classes the server remembers me as something else, or is the scripts caching this somehow?

Thanks,

[bl2ck dog 80]

Tnx for reply, kbone1341. I've made fixed version, which shouldn't have this problem.

Here's link for sample mission https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14037059/b2_scripts.Stratis.rar

[Blitzer134 1]

nice work been looking for something like this for better organised game's thanks Bl2ck Dog

[Pedro_Hizzo 10]

Hey Bl2ck Dog maybe you could help me out. I am trying to use your script to take away the ability for people to use Thermal optics. I am using your script in conjunction with Tonics Virtual Ammo System. I have removed the scopes that I don't want players to use from the VAS but unfortunately due to the nature of Tonics script a player can spawn in gear from a saved loadout. How would I go about using your script to stop anyone on my server from having these specific scopes?

Thanks in advance!

[kylania 568]

You can limit what players can spawn in from within VAS itself I believe, even if they have a saved profile with something.

[Pedro_Hizzo 10]

Hmm, I didn't think it worked that way. When I was setting up the VAS i remember reading a line that gave me the impression that saved loadouts would override what is actually available from the VAS

//If limiting weapons its probably best to set this to true so people aren't loading custom loadouts with restricted gear.

[surfer 42]

Tnx for reply, kbone1341. I've made fixed version, which shouldn't have this problem.

Here's link for sample mission https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14037059/b2_scripts.Stratis.rar

Hey Bl2ck Dog, thanks so much for your scripts!

I'm currently using the vehicle restrictor of the above file and I still only get it to work as long as I spawn as a pilot. Once I spawn as rifleman and switch to an AI helipilot I can't fly the helicopter.

Any idea how to fix the issue?

someone can help me with the Restriction Script? is that I want restrict a UAV Backpack, but i don't know how to do.

His restriction script won't help you, as it's for weapons:

This script allows to restrict weapons to certain soldier classes.

And I would venture to say this thread is dead as well, the author hasn't posted here in over a year.
