sarogahtyp 1105 Posted July 29, 2017 u can pass an object and the engine will determine its position to calculate the distance or u pass a position array (3D or 2D) like [5464.44, 952.12, 13] or like [33.5, 66.4] and the engine uses it for distance calculation. but if u pass an array of objects ... that's just nonsense.

Nothing. so u pass nothing to distance... just can't work. distance needs an object or a position... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dlegion 98 Posted August 5, 2017 hello again ! ...right now i'm trying to make a quite simple script, objective is to have the simplest possible "bubble generic spawner" script! i'm working hard on it since yesterday....but all i was able to make it work is this: Spoiler if (isServer) then { [] spawn { while {true} do { _maxDist = 2000; _minDist = 300; _Dside = WEST; _Dtype = "B_heli_transport_01_F"; _Darea = [getPos player, _minDist, _maxDist, 12, 0, 10, 0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos; _grpDveh = [_Darea,_Dside,[_Dtype]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; [_grpDveh, _Darea, 9000] call BIS_fnc_taskPatrol; _Dveh = vehicle leader _grpDveh; _crewDveh = crew _Dveh; HINT "SPAWNED"; waitUntil{sleep 10;{_plyr = _x;_near = false;{if (_plyr distance2D _x > _maxDist) exitWith {_near = true};true} count _crewDveh;_near} count allPlayers > 0 || !canMove _Dveh}; {deleteVehicle _x} forEach _crewDveh; deletevehicle _Dveh; HINT "DELETED"; uiSleep 4; }; }; }; it works (in SP)....but i should make a script for every single unit i wish to spawn....seems not very optimized... :) plus...i wish to count "all alive players" as reference points (_Darea right now is SP player position, i wish to make it working for all alive MP players), and an init for the spawned units, so for example i can use "BIS_fnc_taskPatrol" to give them waypoints, or other commands if needed (like mines). thanks for any help guys !

dlegion 98 Posted August 5, 2017 ....searching a way to consider all MP players positions...

HazJ 1288 Posted August 5, 2017 Just curious but, why do you uiSleep instead of sleep? Also, from what I can see... You don't even need that either...? I personally use: if ((isDedicated) || (!hasInterface)) exitWith {}; Dedicated server or Headless Client. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted August 5, 2017 hem....sorry for my ignorance...i admit i use sleep or uiSleep as the same. i readed the biki, but cant understand the real difference! should i use normal "sleep"? i'm not sure to understand the second part of you comment...after "IF". sry :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted August 5, 2017 ....if i run script BEFORE respawn...it gives no error....if i wait to start it when i'm alive, it give error... EDIT: more tests: when i'm dead, script runs with no error in MP, while when i'm alive it returns the error!! i use "respawn on custom position" as respawn method. please help me, its driving me mad!!

HazJ 1288 Posted August 5, 2017 Can you please post the latest full script you currently have so far? Also, I don't think you need to use sleep at all. Oh and, I don't read the thread properly, I have only just realised there's more than one page. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted August 5, 2017 sure! thanks for the help ! Spoiler if (isServer) then { [] spawn { while {true} do { uiSleep 5; _maxDist = 2000; _minDist = 300; _Dside = WEST; _Dtype = "I_boat_armed_01_minigun_F"; _allPlayerPositionsTemp = []; { //_pos = position vehicle _x; _pos = getPosASL vehicle _x; _allPlayerPositionsTemp = _allPlayerPositionsTemp + [[_pos]]; } foreach (playableUnits); // _Darea = [getPos player, _minDist, _maxDist, 12, 0, 10, 0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos; // 0 = land only 1=waterORland 2=water only _Darea = [_allPlayerPositionsTemp, _minDist, _maxDist, 12, 2, 10, 0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos; // 2 = on water _grpDveh = [_Darea,_Dside,[_Dtype]] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; // [_grpDveh, _Darea, 9000] call BIS_fnc_taskPatrol; [_grpDveh, _Darea, 3000] execVM "DDscripts\DwaterPatrol.sqf"; _Dveh = vehicle leader _grpDveh; _crewDveh = crew _Dveh; HINT "SPAWNED"; waitUntil{sleep 10;{_plyr = _x;_near = false;{if (_plyr distance2D _x > _maxDist) exitWith {_near = true};true} count _crewDveh;_near} count allPlayers > 0 || !canMove _Dveh}; {deleteVehicle _x} forEach _crewDveh; deletevehicle _Dveh; HINT "DELETED"; uiSleep 5; }; }; }; EDIT: anyway dont seem a problem related to sleep...seems more like some kind of trouble between "respawn on custom position" and the "fnc_findSafePos" ...or maybe the code to store positions...i really dont know!

HazJ 1288 Posted August 5, 2017 I am going to help you clean your code up a bit but first, what are you trying to do exactly? From what I can gather... You spawn a boat and water patrol then delete them all when no players are within the max distance? I don't understand why you are using a while-loop along with other things like spawn as I don't see it is needed unless what you have shown isn't the full script? Are you using while-loop to activate them again when they are within min distance? I assume you are. Kind of like AI caching? Please confirm and let me know. Thanks.
