thank you for showing this thread to me code34, are you able to provide an example of how we could achieve what we want?

we want to use this for normal missions, so that if a player drops out and reconnects their gear and position is restored.

[code34 248]

hi

you should read the first post of this thread :) all examples are shown

[Azza FHI 50]

I saw all the examples but could not get any to work. @Inidbi is only installed on dedicated server is that correct?

[code34 248]

yes, it depends of your code. If you use inidbi from server side code.

Hi, i am testing this on server, but nothing is save after reset who i can do this?

[code34 248]

check vc microsoft library and files permissions on dll, and directories

doesn't work on a dedicated server

if it works on local it works also on server. There is no difference between them on pdw side perhaps a problem with inidbi installation, you should shake your server side installation (always same thing , vc++ library are not install, not the good right permissions on dll, or directories etc)

The only thing it can do is read the database of vehicles, Unable to write etc.. Its not a rights of files problem either as we use inidbi for our own zeus mission which works perfectly fine

PDW: requires INIDBI <-- if a client tries to initialize his load he gets that error also and i know the server is running with inidbi, does everyone have to run with inidbi?

Hey code34,

sorry for my english, its not my native language... I have some problems with your example mission. The functions work when you call them from the initServer.sqf, but from every different sqf's they won't run.

I create a addAction.sqf and call it via the initServer.sqf

player addAction ["loadPlayer", {

["loadPlayer", player] call _pdw;

hint "Restore Player";

}];

This is in the file. Everytime i activate the action in the actionmenu the hint is shown, but the function read nothing from the created mydb.ini .

Hope you can help me :)

Edit: I just want to test it with the loadPlayer function, i know , that i need loadInventory to get the players inventory

2nd Edit: IT WORKS , for everyone who have the same problem you need to define the variable like this in the addAction:

player addAction ["loadPlayer", {

_pdw = ["new", "inidbi"] call OO_PDW;

["setFileName", "mydb"] call _pdw;

["loadPlayer", player] call _pdw;

hint "Restore Player";

}];

Thank you code34 for this awesome things.

So can someone give me an example on saving all units (including players) and objects?

[soulis6 24]

I would also like to know if anyone has actually had success with this, is there a good example of just saving some players equipment, and then loading it? I read through all the documentation but still couldn't get this to work.

How to use this code?

        Function: = ["saveObject", [_name, _object]] call OO_PDW;
        save object, and all its cargo
        
        Parameters:
            _name : string
            _object : object

I have a ammo box, name: Ammo2

I'm trying to save ammo box and its cargo but i can't figure out how to do it.

_name and _object , How i should fill this parameters?

 

Some RPT errors i got:

 7:10:32 Error in expression <};};

case ((_access >= 0) && {(_member == "constructor")} && {((_argType == toU>
 7:10:32   Error position: <== "constructor")} && {((_argType == toU>
 7:10:32   Error ==: Type Array, expected Number,String,Not a Number,Object,Side,Group,Text,Config entry,Display (dialog),Control,Network Object,Team member,Task,Location

Hi,

 

I have no idea on how to use this for my mod.

 

I want it to check if a UID matches the player. If it matches, it restores the players location, gear, and health. If not, it will create a new save when the default gear set is loaded.

[Guest]

        Function: = "saveObjects" call OO_PDW;
        Save all objects
        
        Parameters:
            none

Save objects and then load , it spawn old and new items/weapons/mags in cargo. for example if you have 1 launcher before save, after load you will have 2 launcher in cargo.

Is it a bug or i'm doing something wrong?

 

* There is any way to set a name for restored objects.For example save and restore a ammo box and then add some eventhandler to that ammo box?

i dont read all but i would say,

 

_name : string // is the savename in inidbi and 

_object : object // is the crate 

 

 

 ["saveObject", ["myCustomBox", myBoxVar]] call OO_PDW;

 

then you use the load function and call the box with "myCustomBox" as inidbi object

 

#edit

 

 ["loadObject", "myCustomBox] call OO_PDW;

Thanks for respond.

I tried this but i got error.

RPT:

 7:10:32 File C:\Users\Persian MO\Documents\Arma 3\missions\oo_pdw.Altis\oo_pdw.sqf, line 9

This is the code.

initserver.sqf

        call compilefinal preprocessFileLineNumbers "oo_pdw.sqf";
        
        sleep 2;

        _pdw = ["new", "inidbi"] call OO_PDW;
        ["setFileName", "mydp"] call _pdw;

        sleep 10;
       ["saveObject", ["myCustomBox",myBoxVar]] call OO_PDW;
        hint "Save all objects";  

I tried some other names but same result.
