Thanks for ur suggestions. I thought about those negative score thing and I ll turn the civilian to enemy side to fix this.

Are u sure that _dist_target becomes undefined?
I ve an alive check in the while loop for it. And in the condition this alive check is at first position. The loop should simply break before _dist_target gets checked if the civilian is dead. But if it truly throws an error then I ll fix it.

But I be no time for it within the next few days.

Im also experiencing this, they are actually running at me when this occurs. Im also using BI revive. Im using it in on COS as well and everything works fine but it does throw that error up.

Hey @sarogahtyp, where could one fit into your script a say3D?

 

[sarogahtyp 1104]

Okay. I think this question will be repeated if I don't do it.

therefore here is the script with YOUR sound integration. Happy Alah u Ak'bar!

 

/*
 SSSB - Sarogahtyps Simple Suicide Bomber

 Description:
	Function can be called wherever u want even in init line.
	It waits for player who is in range and follows him until reached and then BOOOOM!
	The bomber is walking if player can see the bomber. If there is no line of sight to player then the bomber will run.
	Works even if the bomber is driving a vehicle. 
	If player is out of range before bomber can reach him then the bomber will just wait for the next player in range.
	You can pass a chance to get a bomber to the function. 
	This is useful for implementing the script into COS - Civilian Occupation System.
	You can apply the script to all civilians and if u pass e.g. 1 % as chance then only every 100th civ will become a bomber and wait for near players.
	Enjoy the boom. :-)
	Cheers Saro.	
	
 Paramameters:
	object - the object of your unit which should become a bomber
	number (optional) - range to seek for players (default is 300 m)
	number (optional) - chance to turn the unit into a bomber. (default is 100 %)

Return values:
number - handle of spawned script if someone likes to check if bombers script has ended (scriptDone)
         will return -1 if script ends without spawning code (in case no civ was turned into bomber)

Maybe you have to adjust _melee_dist to get the sound played properly.

// the distance in meters from which bomber begins to move fast and shout

Hi Saro

 

Not sure if related to melee distance, but I get an error and no sound played when civilian AI is about to explode:

 

 

[C.Hall 3]

Hello, and thank you for the script. I have followed the instructions to the letter, but the civ I put the code into the init line for just stands there, and when player walks up to him, nothing happens. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

_playsound = mission_root + "client\sounds\allahu.ogg";

 

 

I have tried both sound inclusion edits from Saro and Tankbuster's and my "alluha" sound won't play (bomber blows up beautifully, if not a bit delayed). I've even tried using a different ogg sound that I've proved works in a separate say3D task and even that doesn't work.

 

@Tankbuster Do I assume if my ogg is in root\sound\alluha.ogg, then the line above would be:

 

_playsound = mission_root + "sound\alluha.ogg";

 

[Tankbuster 1733]

oh yes, that wasn't clear... apologies. I define mission_root earlier in the scripts

 

mission_root = str missionConfigFile;
mission_root = [mission_root, 0, -15] call BIS_fnc_trimString;

My sound file.

Thank you for the response, I got it working. Now trying to get the sound to play. Same as others, I am getting an error and no sound. 
I replaced "YOURSOUNDNAME" with the name of the sound file "allahu.ogg" which is in my mission folder, but I am guessing that is not how you do it.

   if ( !_shouted &&  (((_dist_target < _melee_dist) && !_is_vec) || 
   ((_dist_target < (2 * _melee_dist)) && _is_vec)) ) then
   {
    _shouted = true;
   [_civ, ["YOURSOUNDNAME", 150]] remoteExec ["say3D", -2];  // << ADJUST SOUNDNAME HERE !!
   };

How does one define mission_root?
I am sorry, I am not a coder, but I really want to make this work.
Thanks.

[C.Hall 3]

I am having bombers blow themselves up when they are nowhere near a player. Just beforehand, this error pops up:
 

while {alive _bomber && (_dist_target < _lost_range) && (_dist_ta>
21:08:37   Error position: <_dist_target < _lost_range) && (_dist_ta>

[C.Hall 3]

Is it possible to deactivate the explosive when the bomber is killed? As it stands, when I shoot the bomber, he explodes.

I think u fixed it meanwhile...

I did a mistake with _civ/_bomber variable names. I updated my post with the corrected version.

it's not related to melee distance. Melee distance is the distance where the civ begins to run and shout. If u adjust it to a larger value than the civ will run and shout earlier.

If u want the bomber to not explode if he died the add this line:
 

if(!alive _bomber) exitWith {deleteVehicle _bomber;};

right below this line:

}; // main while end

Updated first post (soundless version). Error should be fixed.

 

Changelog

 

SSSB 1.0

-changed from distance to distanceSqr for performance reasons

-fixed bug with targets distance (variable not defined)

-changed return value from true to script handle to make scriptDone check available

SSSB 0.9 (initial version)

-just created it because of so much requests for something like this seen in forum

 

 

EDIT: Updated Sound version to 1.0 as well

EDIT: I GOT IT!!! The sound file was missing the "a" at the end. Can you believe it? A fricking week of research and that is what it was. LOL

Thanks again.

 

The code below works!

 

So grateful for the response. I have everything working perfectly now except for the sound. I've spent over a week trying to figure it out from this thread, reading other threads, and, well nothing.
I tried to implement TankBusters code, and the error went away but the sound still does not play. I have a folder named "sound" in the mission folder (where init.sqf lives) with the sound file inside of the folder and my SSSB.sqf is this:

Hi sarogahtyp,

 

Any chance of a solution for integration with Engima Civilian Script? It runs a little smoother than COS, due to age of COS.

 

I'm poking around, but get a undefined variable error no matter where I place insert the 2 lines of code for COS.

 

Additionally, so I am clear, is C. HALL code the correct code for the sound?

 

Thanks in advance,

BH6

 

SOLUTION:

Edit Line 20:   

["ON_UNIT_SPAWNED_CALLBACK", {params["_unit"];[_unit, 300,25] call Saro_fnc_bomber;}],

 

Located in the ConfigAndStart.sqf file.

 

Still try to get sound to work.

[MrAkyet 0]

Anyone know how I would go about adding this to KPLiberation civilians?

Brilliant script. Thank you!
