gc8 970 Posted January 3, 2018 Is it possible to have the arsenal to have x amount of magazines for example? Now by clicking the arsenal checkbox in eden gives arsenal with infinite item count. But I would like to have limited number of items in the arsenal. Is this possible? thx! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dedmen 2588 Posted January 3, 2018 No it's not possible. Well you could ofcause make your own arsenal. But the Vanilla Arsenal doesn't provide that functionality. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gc8 970 Posted January 3, 2018 I was thinking it probably was not possible. but have to be sure about this before I do custom code :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4739 Posted January 3, 2018 ???? You don't need to code for an edited box: - virtual equipment storage for infinite amount of (limited or not) item list. - default storage with the quantity you want for all items you want. It doesn't take so much time to get a custom box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gc8 970 Posted January 3, 2018 @pierremgi sorry I dont know what you mean.. when I put supply box in the editor and make it arsenal by the check box it always has infinite amount of weapons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4739 Posted January 3, 2018 There is no "arsenal" check box in vanilla. Just a "equipment storage" sub-menu in attributes, with two tabs: "default" and "virtual". The default one is OK for what you intend to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gc8 970 Posted January 3, 2018 Just now, pierremgi said: The default one is OK for what you intend to do. the boxes can contain only limited amount of gear so that's the problem with that... actually they may contain lot over their capacity but then the problem becomes player has no where to leave unused gear. Because player cant put anything in full box Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pierremgi 4739 Posted January 3, 2018 hummm Not sure you tried what i suggest. You can place all you want by the default storage. You need to clear it first, then choose all you want (I placed 30 lauchers + 30 rifles + backpacks + hundreds of magazines in a simple ammo box!). Then, don't forget to click on the content tab (first one at left of the rifles) to check the content (seems to be more reliable). Then OK. On the other hand, you can pick anything in this inventory, but, as you said, the room stays null for a while. So, there is no mean to switch some items. The previous item in player's inventory will be placed on the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gc8 970 Posted January 4, 2018 @pierremgi I'm really looking for better solution than that :) Need quick inventory management for AI too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You should post a feature request on BI feedback. You will not have any other solution than scripting the exact amount of each item/weapon with addWeaponCargoGlobal commands. Imho, that takes more time than editor attributes. what do you mean by "inventory management for AI too" ? Do you want AIs become Arsenal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sparker 184 Posted January 4, 2018 Check 'Antistasi' mission. Jeroen Notenbomer, our friend, has implemented the arsenal with finite amount of items by modifying the existing Arsenal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R3vo 2652 Posted January 4, 2018 There is also a Eden mod on Steam WS which adds an inventory manager. Might be worth checking that out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeroen Notenbomer, our friend, has implemented the arsenal with finite amount of items by modifying the existing Arsenal. I think there's misunderstanding here. I am not looking for limited item types arsenal, I'm looking for limited item count. Like 5 mags in arsenal and 2 guns. And if you take those there's nothing left to take.

Sparker 184 Posted January 4, 2018 Yes, by 'items' i mean fixed amount of each item. The way you've described it is exactly how it works. https://github.com/A3Antistasi/antistasiofficial Check folder called 'JeroenArsenal' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will try the github... thx! Edited January 4, 2018 by gc8 found downloads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gc8 970 Posted January 4, 2018 Ok found latest version of Antistasi and it has the limited item arsenal. :) atleast in theory it seems all items have the infinite symbol on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparker 184 Posted January 4, 2018 Well at start you have some stuff in the crate's basic inventory. Go to arsenal, push 'to crate' button and the stuff from 'inventory' will get transfered to 'arsenal' and you can play with it. Some are infinite, yes, this is done on purpose for basic items.

gc8 970 Posted January 4, 2018 @sparker its pretty nice system. can it be used for AI too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparker 184 Posted January 4, 2018 Well if you remote-control AI and open the arsenal, then i think, yes. Or do you want it to work another way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to open the arsenal for each AI in my group. I don't know remote control though sounds like some mod feature? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparker 184 Posted January 4, 2018 Sorry I don't quite know how remote control works in Arma, but it is in Antistasi and you can check how it's implemented. I've had some success customizing my units through the modified arsenal by remote controlling them. In Antistasi, you have to recruit some guys through the flag's menu at the HQ, then select one, press Y button and search for temporary AI control. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
