however, I am not sure how much extra work that will generate and if arma 3 is still a game in general that can provide a big enough pool of potential users that are then also interessted in survival and ravage.

i recently checked arma twitch streams and viewers per stream - the numbers were humbeling.


Yeah it has definitely dried up. Arma in general has lost a ton of interest. The only community that seems to be still thriving is the life servers and even that has died off from what it was.

Not agree with statement the wrong codes are so hearth breaking like mr. @Donnie_Plays says. Even more not a reason to left coding. Two reasons for that: someone spent time to make that codes and all he had in mind is common benefit for ALL. BI Forums also serves as testing poligon for custom made things so there is nothing wrong if some code accidentally pop up in some thread. In mr. @GEORGE FLOROS GR 's case, I personaly know (like many others here I am sure) that him efforts are nothing else but good will and sharing benefits for all. Even wrong codes force people to learn and someone wrong code is trigger for someone to fix it by himself.

I didn't say that and I've never seen so many people cry and whine over a comment in my life. I'm not the first person to comment on posting etiquette both in this thread and on the BI forums. George threw direct insults and namecalling into a post as a response and no one seems to mind that. It's better for the forum if people hide posted code in their quotes so that users can review the info if they want it. Your feelings are not hurt as a result of it. I'm getting sick of people intentionally derailing this thread. Can we go back to discussing Ravage now? This is not the George Floros thread.

I am sorry if I misunderstood even if I am not sure about. At least, putting shadow on Floros contribute to community is adequate reason to say few words against it. No offence.

Okay, so no one should have pointed out that George has posted large pasted code in this forum without properly hiding it in a quote? Do you understand forum etiquette or best practices when posting?

I am absolutely sure that everyone is fine with your statement about long posts hiding in quotes. Mr Floros is too, but turning thread into war zone about one (infrequently!) detail is not neccesery. Especialy when that detail is from someone who is making smile on thousand faces during month with sweet little codes. 

I hope you agree Donnie friend  : )

Just for everyone's information, the "Report post" tab is the proper way to report forum infringements to a moderator....I was hoping page 363 would leave behind the drama of page 362....Can we all just get back on topic please, which is discussion about RAVAGE.

I’ve seen this before, it has nothing to do with your rig... 

 

I wrote a reply to you @MuRaZorWitchKING but for some reason, it didn't get posted.

What actually happened is that the power went out and after that, when I launched the Arma it said my configurations or options are lost (don't really remember what it said), all mods were disabled so I put them back, not exactly in the same order (I know CBA goes first). Then the game started with long saves and loads... I started playing again today and it seems to be fine, though I'm really scared/worried of the dreadful waiting to save a game, load it or exit, as it takes literally more than 10-15 minutes. 

Maybe I need to rearrange my load order. I'm going to have a look into it. If you know how it should go, hit me up so I can set it up, but I'm sure I'll find something on the internet.

Hi, is it possible to use the "Zombie horde placement" module to spawn an horde on the USS Liberty or Freedom ?

Simply placing it on the deck, doesn't seem to do anything.

Hello there scarjit@aol.com and welcome to BIS Forums !

 

It can be done only by scripting it.

 

Hold on i'll make a try but you will test this because i have a non playable pc , due to i have stuck with an ancient laptop , on right now.

 

Let me write some code.

Dude, this originally started with you complaining about having to scroll through some code, when the code pertained to ravage lol... Live up to your word and stick to the ravage talk instead of complaining about what everyone else is doing... Have a nice day!

@scarjit@aol.com, spawning zeds on a static object over water will screw their behaviour big time, you can test this by placing down some single zed units, the results won't be pretty.

I pay no mind to band-aid scripts, I'm merely pointing out what will happen in a vanilla Ravage environment. :rthumb:

The problem , in my opinion is due to the spawn ravage script because , without even seen , when you spawn a zombie then it automatically , start moving .

This is because Haleks has add waypoints after their spawn.

 

Basically i was helping also Max with his Max Zombie's mod so i 've noticed the same as i was working with and i saw on some other guys old scripts projects , almost everyone has done the same.

 

So this is different from the Vanilla ,

about the behaviour , maybe random waypoints will be added and when it is on a certain distance then it moves towards target.

 

I think Haleks can corfim ,  if it works this way.
