Multiple Zeuses taking over AI?

[bullhorn 18]

One of the most fun, unexpected and dynamic situations that I've met while playing ARMA3 coop with a community of 50+ players is when the GM/MCC person is taking over an AI and suddenly the enemy can lean! or sprint! holy ****, mind blown.

Unfortunately, so far I've only seen that only the person who's logged in as MCC can do it, even though our template has 4 GM slots.

Is it possible to allow multiple players to take control of AI? If so, how? If not, we need this!

For a GM to take over a unit, it has to be added to the curatorEditableObjects.

Add this to your mission's init.sqf to add all editor-placed vehicles, units or crates and every mission-spawned unit to all curators:

if (isServer) then {
[] spawn {
	{
		_x addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles,true];
		_x addCuratorEditableObjects [(allMissionObjects "Man"),false];
		_x addCuratorEditableObjects [(allMissionObjects "Air"),true];
		_x addCuratorEditableObjects [(allMissionObjects "Ammo"),false];
	} forEach allCurators;
	while {true} do {
		{
			_curator = _x;
			{_curator addCuratorEditableObjects [[_x],true];} forEach allUnits;
			_curator addCuratorEditableObjects [vehicles,true];
		} forEach allCurators;
		sleep 5;
	};
};
};

	{_curator addCuratorEditableObjects [[_x],true];} forEach allUnits;

forEach isn't needed here, you can simply do that :

_curator addCuratorEditableObjects [allUnits,true]

I knew there was something off with my code! :D

Thanks for that!

Woah, this thing is still alive.

This is not needed with ACE3 anymore. It has a SwitchUnits module that allows as many players as you'd like to take over enemy units.

Cheers,

Using belbo's code in 2017 and it's working great.

I'd been trying to share objects between Zeus players for a long time until I found this.

Thank you!
