Random Rotation After Restart

[RizlaUK 4]

Hi,

I wondered if there's a way to upload many .pbo mission files with time and or weather variations and randomly select one of them files after an automated server restart? I'm looking to make it so there's more weather and also some dawn/dusk start times. I also thought that I could then allow voting for maps for players to decide what they want when no admins are around. Is this possible?

Regards

Rizla

Automatic mission selection is defined in the Missions Cycle class of your server config file.

You can define the params these missions are automatically loaded with though.

 

So if you wanted to have the appearance of random selection, just created a very large mission cyclle class listing varying the params of each mission listing or edit the mission so that the daytime and weather params have a random option and set that as default.

That's the best you can achieve

Thanks for the reply terox. Can you give me an example of how to set it correctly what you have suggested please?

 

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)

class Missions

{

          class Mission1

         {

              template="cannonfod3.Altis";

              difficulty="Regular";

          };

};

 

Thanks a lot.

It's all on the wiki page m8

It's supposed to work, but i've never tried it

 

class Missions
{
    class CanBeAnything // name for the mission, can be anything
    {
        template = "parametersTest.Desert_E";    // omit the .pbo suffix
        difficulty = "regular";            // difficulty: recruit, regular, veteran & mercenary as specified in *.Arma2profile
        param1 = 2;                // dress
        param2 = 26;                // age
        class Params
        {
            Name = 2;
            WorkPlace = 0;
            Friend = 1;
        };
    };
};
