Just started playing this mission with my clan tonight. I loved it so much I'm contemplating running a full time server with this mission running constantly

 

anyway we got a side mission to resupply an area, apparently the people were starving. We had no idea what to do. We set up a FOB and militarized the area instead.

 

Can anyone enlighten me as to what we are supposed to do in that mission?

From the object spawning crate, spawn a "Supply Crate" from the "Supply" menu and deliver it to the marked area.

@vdauphin

nice mission so far, i got a few questions:

- i found no group manager, every unit is its own leader, is grouping solved via ace > team management > assign team x, or is it safe to create own groups via editor instead (alternative: use bis group tool)?

- is there a way to get the side missions request working for every player, or via flagpole etc?

- is there a way to remove fobs?

- any plans on adding hc support?

Hello!

 

1) Yes, you can create your own or use bis group tool

2) yes for every player add in the init field of units and add :

this setVariable ["side_mission",true]

3) Yes; go on the roof and interact with the flag and find the Dismantle FOB interaction (i know it is not really user friendly but it is write in the doc :/).

4) https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/pull/180

i add at the end:

I get no errors while running the mission.

Vehicles spawn, but when i save and load they are not getting saved.

 

Am i missing something here?

Heellloo!

Can you fork me on github and add your change. I will have more tool to investigate your problem.

Byebye!

First of all i would like to thank giallustio and all other contributors who have made this mission so enjoyable. I have a bunch of servers for my clan. exile and other mods but we wanted a dedicated coop server. This one is a perfect fit and i set it up and tried it and it works like a charm. We get side missions, all enemy shoot us, its awesome. Thanks Vdauphin for all you are adding to the files too. I have a few questions. 

 

- I saw that you guys mentioned that we need to login as admin into the server (i am assuming with the #login command in chat as mentioned in the docs) and use ace self interaction menu to save the server before restart. Is this correct? login with chat?

- Thanks for working on it Vdauphin, i have the server up but i dont think i have your latest updated version, i think i might have the one giallustio had finished working on, is there any way for me to check i have your version? like some part of the code that you added and i can check in my PBO? And if i have an outdated version, do i just replace my current pbo with yours from your github? It will still be supported with all the mods i already have loading? ACE, RHS, CUPS, etc? Well i went through your github commits and i saw you added btc_version = 1.15; diag_log format ["=BTC= HEARTS AND MINDS VERSION %1",(str(btc_version) + ".1")]; line in the last commit and i have it in my pbo's mission.sqf so that answers that question. I am running the latest updated files.

- We have a server running 24x7, so i will look into automating the restarts, is there anyway of automating the saves as well? So that if an admin is not around the server still gets saved before restart? Instead of an admin getting into server and saving and then restarting the server?

- Is there anyway of adding more vehicles in? Like maybe dynamic spawning of vehicles needs on the server from the ace interaction menu at the crate where we repair wrecks? maybe too much to ask but it would be nice to get more people playing on the server? and also an option to add more side missions on the map at the same time than just the one that is active each time the officer requests it?

 

Thank you so much for your help and all the time you put into making this game so enjoyable.

Hello and welcome!

Thank you very much,

 

1) yes, it is the #login as admin and interact with your personnnal interaction and save

2) you are running the last update :)

3) https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/issues/220

4)https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/issues/224

5) 

 

 

 and also an option to add more side missions on the map at the same time than just the one that is active each time the officer requests it?

This is not easy as it sound :/. I don't see how to do it without thinking back the actual system. Sorrry. If you want, you can make then spawn automatically easilly I think. In fact, you are suppose to search for Cache and Hideout and do side mission to increase your reputation, but yes I understand your point of view.

 

 

Bye!!!

[mason1996 14]

Hey Vdauphin I am having an issue on my server with the mission, the map doesn't show any info about cache or hideout locations when found and the map is full of just red circles. Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

 

 

Edit: Nevermind it just fixed itself I suppose?

No but you just have to open arma3 editor

Hi Vdauphin

 

Is there a height parameter that I can set to limit AI to trigger/spawn on the ground? This will be very useful for mission maker who put in Plane/Helicopter. Your advice is much appreciated.

 

Best Regards

Hello, 

 

first off apologies if this was answered somewhere else in the thread, I looked for over an hour without finding anything.

 

My issue is when I load this mission up on my dedicated server there are no roles for players to select. I can load the same pbo on my desktop into the editor and play it there though. Is there a setup step I missing? This is my first attempt to use a dedicated server so I'm confident its user error, just not sure where to start looking. 

 

Edit: Next day I figured it out, I'm an idiot and didn't get the mods to load right.

Hello,

Yes, take a look in mission parameters, the line name : Spawn city radius offset.

Remember, the radius depends on how big the city is and the mission parameter add an offset on this value.

See you.
