nomadd 66 Posted February 7, 2016 Cyborg111 I just downloaded this and have been playing around with it. I like that is clean and simple. I have yet to test it in a MP mission, but I am hoping it is more reliable than the support modules from BIS. Plus I love the simple click on map for helo transport. Couple of questions, Is there a way to assign the actions to a specific player? Is there a way to limit the number of CAS/Artillery calls and put them on a cool down? Also limit the number of rounds to be fired from artillary? Again I have not tested this but when a helo is coming in for pickup or drop off can the helo be made invulnerable to damage? I usually try to design missions where no enemy is around when AI helo is landing but sometimes things happen. AI pilots can be absolutely terrible when enemy is around. Hopefully 1.56 will fix this problem with disableai "autocombat". Thanks for the script Nomad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jnr4817 215 Posted February 25, 2016 Cyborg111, I love this for CAS, Transport, and Artillery. I tried using a C130 plane for transport from the cups mod and it just rolled around for a few feet and stopped. Is there anyway to get the C130 plane to work or the Osprey, so I can do airdrops or halo? Also, what does using formular in the name do? I have several different aircraft in the same mission and I have to use modifiers like formular1, formular2, etc. One more question. In the init for the units, putt the following in the "Init:" formular:this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]]; when I try to put. formular:this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]]; it only allows me to put, this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]]; Thank for answering my questions and the hard work.

cyborg111 32 Posted February 26, 2016 this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]];thats all.... :)this stands for this unit."Taxi" can be "CAS" or "Arty""Jumper" is a unique ID, it have to be different if you use more than one vehicle of the same Type ("Taxi","CAS","Arty"). Planes are not supported in Version 1.3Planes are not realy useable at old Arma2 Maps, but you can check out the Alive-Mod Combat Support, it has more Options, and Plane Support (works only on Altis/Stratis very good), but can only be used with Alive-Mod.Greetz Cyb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jnr4817 215 Posted February 26, 2016 Thank you for the answer. I guess my question is... what is formular used for as the name of the unit? THanks again this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]];thats all.... :)this stands for this unit."Taxi" can be "CAS" or "Arty""Jumper" is a unique ID, it have to be different if you use more than one vehicle of the same Type ("Taxi","CAS","Arty").

dachs 14 Posted February 27, 2016 Thank you for this, it looks very promising! A couple of maybe stupid ?Just to clarify, the support vehicles has to use your own respawn script, correct?And, therefore support vehicle needs this inside its init field? null = [5,[50,300],true,true, "",true,this,true,true,false] execVM "TAC-Team\TAC_AddVpool.sqf"; in addition to this setVariable ["Taxi",[this,"Jumper"]]; Reason I'm asking is, I tried it without, and support vehicle didn't really respawn, however it was sort of blinking very fast, above starting point. And when trying to use the BIS vehicle respawn editor module, nothing was happening at all. Finally, is tbere a way to make a transport immune to enemy fire, maybe just "this allowdamage false;", or is there perhaps a better way somewhere in your script? Edit: Yes, "this allowDamage false" in the init field is working just fine. And, I think I spotted a tiny bug in the dialog, when requesting transport to move. When the transport confirms in the chat, it leaves out it's callsign. This is a pretty damn cool script, I'm well on my way implementing an extraction using this, in a mission.

nomadd 66 Posted March 3, 2016 Cyborg111 Been using this script alot ,but no matter what I do or how I set the condition.(the condition is working because only the unit that I have set gets the support notification) C91_TAC_SUP_Activation = "(player == leader player || player in [] || typeOf player in [])"; Once players are inside the helo everyone gets the option to control the helo and give it move orders. Is there a way to prevent this. The addaction only appears to all players when they are inside the helo. I am not sure what this is: C91_InUse = true; //Exclusive Access for Groups exept Unit is RTB or Command comes from inside the Vehicle. but I have tried setting it to both true/false and addaction still comes up for everyone in the helo Nomad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dachs 14 Posted March 13, 2016 I can't seem to figure out the correct syntax, for checking if player has a Laserdesignator in his inventory. It keeps coming up with this error: missing ; Format should be like this: C91_TAC_SUP_Activation = "(player == leader player || player in [] || typeOf player in [])"; And according to Cyborg111's instructions, this could be used to check for items: //((items player) find "Laserdesignator" != -1) //player must have a Laserdesignator in his pockets. And I have tried this, + different variations of parenthesis positioning, but sofar no luck. I did figure out the Laserdesignator is located in Weapons now, but other than that I'm a bit lost?

Jnr4817 215 Posted March 14, 2016 I am having an interesting issue. I have been able to use this support script for transport with insertion, without any issues. I added the CUP helicopters to the fast rope .sqf. For some reason now the helicopter takes off and keeps ascending. Never changes direction or attempts to go to the insertion point. This even happens to ghost hawk. Thanks for reading I did some additional testing with no mods loaded, except ACE, CUPS. I can get the MH-6 and Ghost hawk to do 1 insertion via fast-rope. After that, they just start to ascend. They never make it back to base or follow anymore commands. Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For better compare, it loweres all letters first. And it counts the true answers. If there is at least one true, its more than 0. And the question becomes true by itself.

Any thoughts? hm? not really, we are using the script at our public server, and under Fire we have sometimes problems with coward pilots at pickup missions.... but nothing you describe. the fastrope should work, but its not my skript... but it has no effect to the Helo behaviour at all. all players have to be out, then the helo return to base! if a player is left for another insertion point, he has to talk to the Pilot again for another destination.
