Name the script and call it from your init.sqf

while {true} do {
_pos = [getPosATL player, 100, 400, 2, 0, 100, 0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos;

_eastGrp = createGroup east;
for "_i" from 0 to random 2 do {
	_type = ["Sheep_random_F", "Hen_random_F", "Cock_random_f", "Rabbit_F", "Cock_white_F"] call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;
 	_unit = _eastGrp createUnit [_type, _pos, [], 1, "FORM"];
	_unit setVariable ["BIS_fnc_animalBehaviour_disable", true];
	_unit setSpeaker "NoVoice";
        _unit disableAI "FSM";
	_unit disableAI "AIMINGERROR";
	_unit disableAI "SUPPRESSION";

	_unit setCombatMode "BLUE";

works like a charm, thanks!

@Jimmakos do you know if ravage or arma would clean up far away animals after some time (e.g. after 2 hours there will be plenty of animals spawned but i have moved on to another part of the map) or would i need to update the script with a animal deletion part?

use that and call it via a trigger, for exemple on desactivation or with radio alpha for testing :

 

_vehicles = nearestObjects [player, ["Sheep_random_F","Hen_random_F","Cock_random_f","Rabbit_F","Cock_white_F"], 20000];

{

if (count crew vehicle _x == 0) then {deleteVehicle _x};

} forEach _vehicles;

I got a question about the Ambient Zombies module its possible to desactivate this module for specific unit or a player side (in my case all independent player) ?

thanks mate, i will check this out!

I got an other question about the horde spawner i would like to spawn Z only with a trigger and delete when trigger is desactivated (repeat) i can delete the Z but in not able to spawn them.

i try to put this line on Act : 0 = ["horde1",["type_m", "Runners"],["fastNum_m", 10],["hordeSize_m", 20],["hordeRadius_m", 25],[],["hordeBehaviour_m", false],[]] spawn rvg_fnc_horde_spawn;

 

The zombies spawn on my markers but ignore the trigger activation, so they spawn at mission start, and got error when i enter the trigger somebody know how to spawn the infected with a trigger ?

 

I want to force the player to clear the area for acces a specific zone and delete the zombies if the player escape but respawn them, i can use the AI spawn script pack with caching system but i would like to make it without this script.

[lv1234 75]

anyone got a script that saves everytime you put down a sleeping bad or bed roll?

[Vandeanson 1674]

Gents I have updated my Dynamic Bandit Camp Spawn Script a little bit to make it fit for "plug and play" use (thanks for the feedback @Gunter Severloh!

 

Showcase and some explanation in the below  (rather messy and unstructured) video:

 

 

Features/changes:

- sorted the arrays and put them at one place on top (easier to enter your own buildings, tents, weapons or items from other mods)

- added a bigger variety of vanilla structures and weapons that may spawn (includes a chance to spawn working Car or Helicopter)

- random amount of enemy AI spawns and patrols now with random gear based on your ravage equipment module settings

- added a WaitUntil function to stop the camps from de-spawning if the player is within 200 meters of the current camp

- added some explanation on how to install and edit the script

- removed all dependencies other than CBA and Ravage

 

Future additions:

- flag or radio to destroy that will award experience (I use the HG simple shop XP system for example) or other rewards

- chance to call reinforcement unless you destroy radio in time

- testing and adaptation for MP

- anything i may come up with ;)

 

Known issues:

- if you allow Ravage to spawn furniture in Vanilla and DLC buildings, those objects will spawn along with the buildings and will not be de-spawned by the script along with the camp.

- this is probably not fit for MP

 

If anyone is interested please have a look, happy to learn about possible improvements;)

cheers

Have you tried experimenting with the !alive command in the condition and activation and or deactivation field

No but i do a mystake a forget to delete the horde module so its for that i see them spawning :)

 

The coomand line simply not work i need to do more test

Can anyone help me understand the MP persistency?  I tried the random loadout script rvg_fnc_equip and  called it in onPlayerRespawn.sqf but it fires even on players loading back in and overwrites their saved gear.

 

Also, I was told I should restart our dedicated server every few hours, do vehicles and loot boxes persistace as well or is there a way I can save them?  Thanks

Yeah don't use random loadout script rvg_fnc_equip got the same problem. For the vehicles, folded tent persistance you can use this script : https://github.com/gruppe-adler/grad-persistence/wiki

Dont use the editor placed object to be save its bugged if you want a crate for stock loot, just spawn it when the server is running (zeus...).

Dont save the unit to use it only for save static object and vehicle.

But be carful cause each time you load the server ravage will create new vehicle, so put the lowest setting (low+1% for non damaged car), also desactivate the option for retextur and damage the vehicle at mission start cause your saved vehicle will be broken and lost all the stuff you put inside.

 

There is an other way to do it but its weird sometimes it work sometimes not, that save only the vehicle and cargo so its good for stock the loot.

I can't find where i get this code so i will copy it here

Thank you for this.  I will give it a try.

[damsous 329]

Note there is a line for  load/save so its better to use a custom one

on loadVehicles.sqf

line 21 : _veh setVariable ["rvgxcam2",_vVar1,true];   change the "rvgxcam2" for exemple "mission1"

 

on saveVehicles.sqf

line 14 : _xOwns = _x getVariable ["rvgxcam2",[]];   change the "rvgxcam2" for exemple "mission1"

Hey guys a question,

Working on a coop mission for my server for ravage, now what im trying to do is have it where 2 or more players spawn together

at a random location when the mission starts.

 

This is what i use for 1 player currently, i have the following code in the player's init box:

this setpos (getMarkerPos (selectRandom ["m1","m2","m3","m4","m5", "m6", "m7", "m8", "m9","m10", "m11", "m12","m13","m14", "m15", "m16", "m17","m18","m19", "m20", "m21", "m22", "m23", "m24", "m25", "m26", "m27", "m28", "m29","m30","m31","m32","m33","m34","m35"]));

Each m stands for marker, and the number is just the number of the marker, i have 35 of them.

So i have 35 markers spaced, and spread out all over the map, and when the mission starts the player will spawn at any of the markers but just one marker,

so again question is how do i do the same thing but for 2 or more players, spawning them together at the same marker?

 

Lastly after both players have spawned i want all the markers in the code to be deleted as currently when i spawn and have a map i

see all the markers on the map, can anyone clear this up for me on how to do these 2 things?

Maybe its possible to do the same thing with a playable group not sure.

 

Use the empty marker, they are not visible in game only in editor

im not on my pc but i would do the above but first you define the random marker that should be the spawnpoint (else each player will receive a separate random marker:

 

_marker = getMarkerPos (select random ["m1",....]

 

and then do 

 

player1 setpos getMarkerPos _marker;

player2 setpos.....

 

not tested and i would be curious if it works!

the code i suggested would just be run in player1 otherwise yeah it would select a random start for each starting unit. if all player units are on map at mission start it should work as intended.... should....
