XMedSys - Improved Medical System for A3

Recommended Posts

so if I'm not mistaken, this is the beta version that will introduce actual death (not just being unable to revive someone) when shot too much or shot on the ground, correct? because I think that's the only real missing feature for my group

serverconfig is very exciting

can't wait to see what comes up

Yes and no

basicly

that BETA will be the one which introduces the ability to force MedEvacs

the ability to prevent revive is already inserted in the current one (only for headShots :F variable for this is callen: "X39_MedSys_var_Head_HeadShotDeathLimit" just set it to the value you want it to and the unit cant be revived when the head has received too much damage ^^ problem currently is ... as the event handlers for this are broken ... there will be a point where its never possible to bring a unit back : /)

for the part of the serverconfig :F

yes

youre right XD


Another please to you guys

Post your COMMUNITY feedback to this page or send it to me via PN

i need the feedback to take further improovements (meaning that you also please post your personal communities needs inside of those posts)

just for a basic information

i read EVERY post in this thread (just not taking action on every :F as not all of them require one of mine ^^)

Hi,

Thanks for the time and effort you have put into this mod.

I am trying to work out how to use the mod without using the module, reason being because when using the module an error is generated. I believe this may be something to do with a conflict with another mod. I have tried adding "player call X39_MedSys_fnc_initializePlayer;" To the init.sqf without success. Could you tell me how to get this working.

Thanks

the initialization is currently crappy implemented : /

so you need to call 3 functions to propper initialize all players: (see X39_MedSys_fnc_initMod :F its the modules function but its not safe for being callen without the module in the current version)


if!(isDedicated) then
{
waitUntil{!isNull player};
waitUntil{alive player};
_res = [] spawn X39_MedSys_fnc_AddEH_KeyDown;
_res = player spawn X39_MedSys_fnc_initializePlayer;
[] call X39_MedSys_fnc_MedSysOverlayCreateDisplay;
_res = [] spawn X39_MedSys_fnc_AddEH_KeyDown;
_res = player spawn X39_MedSys_fnc_initializePlayer;
[] call X39_MedSys_fnc_MedSysOverlayCreateDisplay;
};

place this in a gamelogic or init.sqf

after that everything should behave like when youre using the module (im aware of the error messages thrown at startup but as i just got a not fully working version on my HD (changing much in background :F) i cant patch that currently and you guys need to wait till 0.3.0 is released)

One of the issues I have had with XMedSys is with players ability to survive an headshots, even when a player is on the ground you can repeatedly shoot a player in the head with little effect.

Using the following you can make it so that players die if they get shot in the head.

// Add this to your init.sqf

player addEventHandler ["HitPart", { _this execVM "HandleDamage.sqf" }];

// Create a file called HandleDamage.sqf & add the following code.

_unit = ((_this select 0) select 0);

_DamageLocation = ((_this select 0) select 5);

if ((str _DamageLocation) == '["Head"]') then {

_unit setDamage 1;

};

Hi,

Since we've started using this mod in our community, we had some bugs when joining on our dedi server. Sometimes, some players (JIP's) starts in spectator mode.

I don't know if this bug it's related to this mod or to ArmA itself. Is someone else having this issue?

Not related to the mod ( no manual jip handling )

is respawn activated on the mission? If not, no one can join after the mission started. But I may missunderstood you! ^^"

Yes, it is the problem. Once the mission has started, the players cannot join, they stucked in spectator mode.

I've checked the description.ext and there's no respawn (you know...respawn = 1 or similar). Needs to be activated? Because i believe that we've never used it...

well

the behaviour you describe there has nothing to do with XMedSys

XMedSys has no built in spectator mode as it will only handle everything when youre alive for the game

to enable JIP in missions you need to change some things in description.ext (if you moved over from BTC then check your old description.ext files ^^) but ... i have no idea what XD (im not a mission designer :F im a modder)

Solved.

The problem was that the mission didn't had the respawn = X;

What a noob...

Following your advice from the previous page I am using the module to load up XMedSys however it seems there is a problem with players that JIP, is there currently a solution to solve this issue? or is it a case of waiting for the next version?

The problem is that JIP players don't get initialized correctly there for you can't interact with them and they can't interact with anymore or themselves.

Sounds like a setup issue to me

Please upload your mission somewhere so that im able to check over it

Thx

I would like to Re confirm something. Does Xmedsys Save gear and or have the abillity to make one respawn with it?

Hello from the 2nd MEF

Just wanted to redirect the dev's here to this post Arma3Sync - XMedSys config.hpp Installer request

not sure what youre trying to get with this post

Thanks for your quick response.

It's not really a mission just a template that we use to create missions that we've been using to test.

http://www.gol-clan.co.uk/GOL@38_Template_USMARINES.Altis.zip

checked over the mission file and ...

setup seems good

need to test this further

please create a ticket in feedback tracker containing all informations about your modset, missions, how many players are affected, etc.

thx

X39, I just wanted to thank you for your awesome work in trying to bring an ACE medical feel to ArmA III, if you have any intentions on changing hit point values in ArmA III let me know so I can try to make an XMED version of my ballistics.

not in XMedSys 1

as the main scope for XMS1 is pretty simple: provide a medic system :F

in theory it is possible to have multiple hitzones with different hitpoint values

but ...

its not intended to work like i wish (thats the reason why there WILL be a XMS2 which will feature a compleete rewrite of the entire code but this time i know where i start and what i need to do :F)

Thanks, this at least will give me time to finish off all the calibers, I can't wait for XMEDSYS1 to be completed, so far it looks real good!
