[RELEASE] Simple Bomb Defuse [script]

[[TS]Djmitri 18]

It's still not working on dedicated server with ACE3 and CBA. I'm trying the test mission, but nothing happens when i try the ACE interaction key.

Any solutions?

 

Thanks

you can disable ace3 interaction with parameter, addAction will be used. I have update ready, just testing it on dedicated server next week

Damn, 8 years in this game and I somehow missed this awesome script. 

Any success testing on Dedicated?
Great job!

We've used it on a dedicated server a couple of times with no issues

Are you using ACE 3 interaction?

[JD Wang 352]

It's been a while, but yeah pretty sure we used ACE

I have tested on my Dedicated server, the Test mission inside the script and i have no interaction with ACE 3... 😥

I mentioned this already. I have a fix ready, but testing on dedicated server. Just have a patience.

Hey, I tried implementing your script but it throws several error messages like

"fn_getCondition.sqf, Line 10 Type String, expected Bool"

 

or 

 

"fn_soundLoop.sqf Line 4 Type String, expected Bool"

 

Any chance you could fix those errors?

[Melody_Mike 130]

@NeisAEL In what situations (mods) are you getting these errors? And with what line are you calling bomb.sqf? I've just tested the newest version of the test mission in local hosted multiplayer. I don't get your errors.

"fn_getCondition.sqf, Line 10 Type String, expected Bool"

 

or 

 

"fn_soundLoop.sqf Line 4 Type String, expected Bool"

These two errors refer to parameters in bomb.sqf; specifically _object and _needKit . Do you also get it when you use the default init line on a default (metal barrel) object:

null = [this, 10, true, false] execVM "bomb\bomb.sqf";

?
=====

I also however, have a minor bug to report. 
I don't run ACE, and I have tried setting the _disableAce3 value to both true and false. But the game will still give this error:

Error in expression <[_unit] call ace_common_fnc_isEngineer

if( _isEOD || _isEngineer ) then 
{
_isE>
Error position: <if( _isEOD || _isEngineer ) then 
{
_isE>

Error Missing ;

File (...)\mikehudak-a3_bomb.vr\bomb\functions\fn_isExpert.sqf..., line 18 

-every time the mission is (re)loaded in editor or previewed, and ignore the _expertMultiplier value, unless I comment out the ACE part of fn_isExpert.sqf (lines 13-18). It's not strictly game breaking. But it is tedious for non-ACE users.

Thanks M1ke_SK, fun mod.

 

Anyone have a idea on how to set off a trigger if you successfully defuse the bomb?

Want to trigger the next task for the mission.

 

Edit; found this in a earlier thread which works,   bar1_1 being the bomb

! (bar1_1 getVariable ["a3f_bomb_active", true])

I fixed the sound and ace interaction for dedicated servers...

first the sound, just put a trigger under the metal barrel and rename the metal barrel to bomb1

ACTIVATION: ANYPLAYER
ACTIVATION TYPE: PRESENT
REPEATABLE: UNCHECK
SERVERONLY: UNCHECK

IN CONDITION: call{player in thisList}

ON ACTIVATION:

if (!isDedicated) then {[] spawn { while { alive bomb1 && bomb1 getVariable ["a3f_bomb_active", true] } do 
{
    playSound "beep_strobe";    sleep 2;
}};};

now the ace interaction:

on line 4 of the bomb.sqf file change to if(isDedicated) exitWith {};

Hey there, I tried your solution. For some reason, the sound trigger avenue didn't work but it did get the ACE interaction to work. So thank you for that!
 

The issue I'm facing now on Dedicated is that the spawning of the explosion doesn't do any damage. It explodes and the barrel disappears, but players and objects are entirely unharmed (regardless of munition). This isn't the case on Singleplayer or Local MP. I don't think these are related, but maybe you've come across it?

I will take a look at that "no damage" issue. I mostly test script on singleplayer and dedicated server.

 

At this time I am in process of rewriting script with new commands.

[sgtnatedawg 1]

I don't believe the ACE functionality works on dedicated anymore. I've tried all the supposed fixes throughout the thread to no avail.

The interaction returned when I changed line 4 of the bomb.sqf to isDedicated instead of !isServer, but the matrix was constantly changing and wouldn't stay set. So it was impossible to pick the right color.

Its not working for me. The error I'm getting is:

_isAce3Enabled = [_disableAce3] call [#]bomb_fnc_ace3_enabled;

_a = [_object] s...'
Error undefined variable in expression: bomb_fnc_ace3_enabled
File ...\mpmissions\"missionname"\bomb\bomb.sqf..., line 8

I'm a noob at coding maybe someone knows why its throwing me this error?

[galaxyk 2]

Hey! Me and some friends worked around the Script and fixed a lot of stuff that wasn't working at all.

First, fn_isExpert.sqf, we fixed an error that wasn't running the script correctly. Was missing " ; " after "then", so now thats fixed.
 

Quote

line 18
if( _isEOD || _isEngineer ) then ;

And last but not least, the Sound effect (beep) for the bomb. In fn_soundLoop.sqf we fixed a few things and lines that wasn't correct.
 

Quote

line 11
playSound3D ["a3\sounds_f\sfx\Beep_Target.wss", _object, false, getPosASL _object, 10, 1, 20];

We changed A3 and Sounds_F to lowercase (so thats can read the path correctly) and getPos changed to getPosASL to work above the sea level (yeah, that was happening lol, it only worked on the VR map). Now it works on every map you try.

Tested on SP, and MP (Self Host, not dedicated)

Enjoy 🙂
