Yes, the script checks for marker(s) first, then "start" as string parameter. So if a marker is named 'start", this one will be used.
What you can do is:

- mark the initial position by a marker like "veh1Start" and specify this marker in your command line : 0 = [[veh1],["veh1Start"],10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn;

- change my script (command line included) to read "startVeh" as string anytime you read "start". This way,(if you don't have any marker already named "startVeh", this string will operate and the true position at start will be used.

 

NOTE: There are some remaining problems, respawning on a carrier, and when UAV  has remaining waypoints, choosing the start position. I'll check that.

 

 

Just realized I did what you suggested wrong.

 

I changed the script line to:   if (_position == 'startVeh' or (_x getVariable ['emptyVeh',false])) exitWith {_pos = getPos _veh};

 

"change my script (command line included) to read "startVeh" as string anytime you read "start".    I'm a little confused about what you say here. Am I to change command line too?

 

My command line now is like this:   0 = [[veh1],["veh1Start"],10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn;

 

veh1Start is marker name placed at UAV position.

 

Or should I be using startVeh?

 

Thanks.

Formerly, in these scripts, "start" is used as a string different from any marker, saying you want to use the initial position for respawning. "death" is also a specific string for respawning where the vehicle was destroyed/crashed.

 If your mod/script uses "start" as marker name, not my bad, the vehicle will respawn at this marker just because my script checks for any marker before other possibilities.

So, if you have a marker named "start" and you want to respawn at initial position, the simplest workaround is to modify the script for reading another string, no matter which one, but you must be consistent, so change "start" by "anyNameYouLike" everywhere in the script.

The result will be the same. If you read the "notice", a simple "anyNameYouLike" as parameter will be efficient for any vehicle to be respawned on its initial place.

"start" (or "anyNameYouLike") and "death" are generic. No need to refer at one vehicle. Read the explanation.

Maybe I'm getting lost here... is the issue of the carrier deck height spawn resolved?

[pierremgi 4739]

WIP. Lack of time.

[pazuzu 17]

Ahh, there's an issue with spawn height?

 

I've gotten my UAV to spawn in original position on carrier deck but not at right height.

 

I tested spawning on land and everything else seems to work fine like having same skin and loadout...

Same here. I have a FLY mission out, and it's set up on the carrier...I had to use the vanilla module to be able to get the jets/choppers spawning on the deck. On the same mission, but based on a land airport, the script works flawlessly.

Did you try using a marker for respawn on carrier?

Marker is a bad idea. I implemented that just in case you don't want to respawn at start or death positions. I'm about to fix this problem without extra workaround but I discover that ditching disabled helo (say a stationary Huron fired by a single Titan AA MPRL) don't fire the MEH "entityKilled" when the Huron sinks and becomes wreck. It's weird. Working around (one more time!) on a specific Arma behavior.

[pazuzu 17]

Ok. Thanks for letting me know.

Nope... I use the "START" option since I need them to re-spawn at theyr "parking" spots.

But as @pierremgi stated, we need to be patient.. he's working on it. 

 

[pierremgi 4739]

Corrected for spawning vehicles on carrier at sea.

+ some improvements like helo ditching and in flight edited aircraft (already flying at mission's start).

All feedback welcome. Some difficulties for respawning at death position an aircraft colliding with the ground (no previous damage). The solution needs some extra tests.

[pazuzu 17]

Thank you,  pierremgi.

 

I tested it on a Sentinel I have on carrier.

 

The Sentinel respawned on deck but did not have same loadout, skin or option to use dynamic loadout addaction.

 

I used the 2nd script with this command line:   0 = [[veh1,veh2],["startpos"],10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn;

 

veh1 is a tank I have for defense at base and respawns perfectly with crew and same skin.

 

veh2 is the Sentinel.

 

startpos is the start position string I changed from "start" in 2 lines of the script:

 

if (_position == 'startpos' or (_x getVariable ['emptyVeh',false])) exitWith {_pos = getPosASL _veh};

 

if (_position != "startpos" && !(_x getVariable ["emptyVeh",false])) then {

 

Not sure how this command line is supposed to work:   0 = [vehicles,vehicles apply {"start"},10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn // here start position applies on each vehicle.

 

I appreciate your hard work.

[pierremgi 4739]

Thanks for your feedback.

The skin and loadout problem should be solved now. That was due to some blowing "at once" vehicles and my new performance saving EH. Please Try it now.

 

When you write: 0 = [[veh1,veh2],["startpos"],10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn  (I know you changed "start" for "startPos" everywhere, due to your scenario), that means veh1 will respawn on its start position, but veh2 will respawn by default on its death position. (unless you're writing ["startPos","startPos"])

 

So, 0 = [vehicles,vehicles apply {"start"},10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn  just means  that you apply to the array of vehicles, an array of "start" as parameter, with the same number of elements in array.

You can even write something like:

_arrayOfVeh = vehicles select {_x isKindOf "landVehicle"}+vehicles select {_x isKindOf "air"};

_arrayOfpos = (vehicles select {_x isKindOf "landVehicle"}) apply {"death"}+ (vehicles select {_x isKindOf "air"}) apply {"start"};

0 = [_arrayOfVeh,_arrayOfPos,10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn

if you want to respawn planes and helos on death positions and ground vehicles on start ones.

 

Don't forget, spawned vehicles are not taken into account with this kind of line. You must do a loop or use side parameter for that (or use my advanced module, to be corrected soon).

(unless you're writing ["startPos","startPos"])

 

So for every vehicle added  I have to add "startpos" to the string line to get every vehicle to respawn at start position?

 

I'll test it again and let you know how it goes.

 

Thanks.

[pazuzu 17]

Ok, I tested again with this command line:   0 = [[veh1,veh2],["startpos","startpos"],10,true,false] spawn MGI_fnc_VehicleRespawn;

 

I tested in editor and on my server.

 

When I blow stationary Sentinel it respawns with same skin and loadout but the dynamic loadout script does not work. I get option in action menu but loadout menu does not work (shows no selection). Also, when I scroll through action menu the highlighted part disappears as though it's selecting an invisible option...if that makes sense...)

 

If I fly the Sentinal and crash it, it respawns in original position but is traveling fast and just crashes at other side of carrier and keeps doing that.

 

I'm going to try to find out what dynamic loadout script xeno uses (it may be his own), I know it's not GOM but maybe that will help to figure that part out.

[pierremgi 4739]

I can't reproduce that. Check for startPos eveywhere again.

If sentinel takes velocity, that's because it's not touching ground (i.e. the deck). Check the positioning of your UAV by isTouchingGround command. (out of map cursorObject is always null, use cursorTarget or vehicle name).

 

Normally, you can recover addAction on respawn because I scripted for that. I don't know (and I don't care) if it's compatible with other mods playing with menus. I'm scripting for Vanilla (+ vehicles mods like CUP or RHS), but in any case for ACE or exotic mods altering menus. I don't know if it's your case. It's just an info.

 

I spent hours to test sentinel on carrier or ashore, with different pylons, so, except if you have a reproducible mission (or uploaded file), I can't help anymore.

[pazuzu 17]

Well, I must be doing something wrong so I'll just keep working on it.

 

Thanks for the help.

Hello Mr. pierremgi,  
the reason why I came across your script is becouse i am looking for a way to keep RHS skins and loadout after respawn. 
Unfortuntaly for me, I know nothing of scripting and have very limited knowledge of mission making. Please keep that in mind :)
 

I have two sides (BLUEFOR, OPFOR), each side has 1 APC and 2 cars. 
Total of 6 vehicles.  Only the cars are meant to respawn and the APCs are not. 

I need these 4 cars to respwan on starting position, after 10 seconds only after they are completly destroyed. 
And it would be nice if the wreck is not deleted after respawn.
 

I put your SECOND SCRIPT (instead of first one) for MGI_fnc_vehicleRespawn (now adding skin, appearance, loadout, pylons and turrets 
config, actions menu) in initServer.sqf and i saw that it works like a charm. However, since i need the script to work only on some vehicles 
and not all, I could use some advice on how to make it happen if you have the time and patience.

OK, I modified this code JUST FOR YOUR AIM. Any other scripter please refer to the original script (or module)

Here below, the script is skimmed for specific parameters. You must replace the array [apc1,apc2,apc3] at the last line of script,  by your array of existing vehicle names (recommended). All elements of the array must exist in the editor.

Remember this code will respawn the designated vehicles on start position only, and will let the wreck burning after respawn. That's specific to your request.

Man...I am speachless.

I could've never expected such a quick reply.  Same as the script before, this one works perfectly.

Thank you very much and please, if there is a way to support your work, let me know.

New version SP/MP. See front page.

- Crates will respawn if declared in the array of vehicle/side only

- empty vehicles will respawn if the specific parameter is set to true, even if the civilian side is selected for respawn. If you just need a bunch of empty vehicles to be respawned, let the param to false and add these vehicles in the first array.

- any backpack, uniform,vest content in vehicle/crate should respawn correctly.

I have used the script. I have found that there is still something wrong with the sentinel uav. When it respawns it respawns with just one ai instead of the required two.
I have tried to use createVehicleCrew in the init field of the vehicle but this doesn't seem to work.

[pierremgi 4739]

Should work now. Thank you for report.

Hey pierremgi had anyone reported issues with armor vehicles after respawn keeping the ability to move to it's waypoints.  I mostly use jebus for my respawning needs but his script is now having issues with armor units having the ability to reach its waypoints!

Are you speaking about my script? No. That works fine. I suggest you to use my module, more developed.
