Play3r 143 Posted February 9, 2019 i have this Script that i put in a trigger or the Unit INIT field shotter dotarget t1; sleep 3; while {alive t1 and alive shotter } do {sleep 0.3; shots = shots +1; gl action ["useweapon",vehicle shotter,shotter,0]}; and i have found this script also shotter addeventhandler ["fired", {(this select 0) setvehicleammo 1}]; }; it gives the SHOTTER unlimited ammo if put inside the script above like this : shotter dotarget t1; sleep 3; while {alive t1 and alive shotter } do {sleep 0.3; shots = shots +1; gl action ["useweapon",vehicle shotter,shotter,0]; shotter addeventhandler ["fired", {(this select 0) setvehicleammo 1}]; }; But what i need is the SHOTTER to make a magasin change when a amount of shots is fired. the character is the Heavy gunner vanilia with a 130 round magasin on weapon. if i leave the unlimited line out of the script he makes his MAG change but he runs out of ammo after 3 MAG changes and stop to fire. how do i make him get 3 new magasins when he is empty ??

Play3r 143 Posted February 9, 2019 POLPOX thanks for the link but when i add it to the INIT of the UNIT i get a error Init:Generic error in expression can you see what i do wrong this is put inside the INIT of the UNIT and NOT tru a trigger. i know this is not the same script like my first post but after reading the post you linked to i put it inside the INIT on the UNIT and not a script run by a trigger. T1 is the Target GL is the name of my GameLogic put in by editor null = this spawn {_this dotarget t1; sleep 0.5; while {alive t1 and alive _this} do {sleep 0.3; GL action ["useweapon",vehicle _this,_this,0]; } this addEventHandler ["Reloaded",{ _unit = _this select 0 ; _mag = _this select 4 select 0 ; _unit addMagazine _mag ; }] ; }; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try defining the entities more specifically EDIT: Realized you were using "Shotter" (not shooter?) as an entity as well null = this spawn {this dotarget t1; sleep 0.5; while {alive t1, shotter} do {sleep 0.3; GL action ["useweapon",vehicle t1, vehicle shotter, 0]; } this addEventHandler ["Reloaded",{ _unit = _this select 0 ; _mag = _this select 4 select 0 ; _unit addMagazine _mag ; You can try the code above but I'm not sure it will work. Honestly you need it defined in a trigger like this Map wide trigger - "If BluFor Present" *Repeatable Create a script in your mission folder \Documents\Arma3\Profile\%YourMissionName% Save the file as "Reload.sqf" (make sure all files is selected when you save Place this code into the file EDIT: (Do the script twice and replace T1 with shotter, otherwise it will do a check and if only one is alive it will stop reloading for both or either. Since you left _this dotarget t1; in I assume t1 is the target being reloaded, so if he's dead it shouldn't really matter if he's being reloaded. ) null = this spawn {_this dotarget t1; sleep 0.5; while {alive t1} do {sleep 0.3; GL action ["useweapon",vehicle _this,0]; } this addEventHandler ["Reloaded",{ _unit = _this select 0 ; _mag = _this select 4 select 0 ; _unit addMagazine _mag ; }] ; }; Then go back to your mission, open up the trigger you made and type nul = execVM "Reload.sqf"; Every time the trigger is triggered, the reload script will be called. You can put a timeout to not overload the server, to reload them every 5 seconds do a mag check, or 10, 15, 60 etc. This post might contain some useful code for your problem as well. https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/147595-unlimited-ammo-for-all-units-including-units-created-during-the-mission/ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Init:Generic error in expression i have put it inside the INIT of the UNIT That kind of code just won't work in a units init. It's defining variables that have to be in an SQF, and "this" can't be "_this" in a units init or it doesn't read correctly 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaique_ks 0 Posted March 5, 2022 Help me Please AddEventHandler Could you give me some help? I want to know how this works, and if this works in ARMA 2 It's about the infinite refills script where should i put this What should I do? Create which files or where to put them in the game this addEventHandler ["Reloaded", { _unit = _this select 0; _mag = _this select 4 select 0; _unit addMagazine _mag ; }]; or this null = this spawn { _this dotarget t1; sleep 0.5; _this addEventHandler ["Reloaded",{ _unit = _this select 0 ; _mag = _this select 4 select 0 ; _unit addMagazine _mag ; }] ; while {alive t1 and alive _this} do { sleep 0.3; [_this,currentWeapon _this] call BIS_fnc_fire; } ; } ; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But both games work in the same way, as it has the same engine. Arma3 as 2 Arma2 use script from ArmA1 still. If Arma2 doesn't have "Reloaded" Event Handler, that must be why it's not working.Is there any way to make something similar work in Arma 2?

Harzach 2507 Posted March 7, 2022 5 minutes ago, kaique_ks said: But both games work in the same way Well, no. The scripting command, function, and event handler libraries of A3 are greatly expanded over those of A2, none of which is backward-compatible, and some A2 commands are not forward-compatible with A3 (which caused quite a commotion back in late-alpha/early-beta). 9 minutes ago, kaique_ks said: Is there any way to make something similar work in Arma 2? See:https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setWeaponReloadingTime That has more to do with how fast you can fire.

kaique_ks 0 Posted March 7, 2022 3 minutes ago, Harzach said: Bem não. As bibliotecas de comandos de script, funções e manipuladores de eventos do A3 são bastante expandidas sobre as do A2, nenhuma das quais é compatível com versões anteriores, e alguns comandos A2 não são compatíveis com versões anteriores do A3 (o que causou uma grande comoção no final do alfa /beta precoce). Isso tem mais a ver com a rapidez com que você pode disparar. Não vejo sua relevância RE: o tópico. So there is no way I can use something similar in ARMA2 ? Thanks anyway, at least now I won't be racking my brains over it One more thing: There's a way for me to record the movements, shots and put it on the AI for it to do the same as I did, as if it were a replay. I know have this, in Arma 2 it works for vehicles Video: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harzach 2507 Posted March 7, 2022 20 minutes ago, kaique_ks said: So there is no way I can use something similar in ARMA2 ? There might be, but I suspect most folks here haven't done any scripting for A2 for many years, which is why I mentioned that this is the A3 forum.

opusfmspol 273 Posted March 8, 2022 For unlimited ammo, @avibird 1 posted this release at the beginning of January. And it can still work in A2 if the private variables, params and remote execution get reverted back to the A2 old school methods. For instance, where A3 uses remoteExec, A2 uses the RE function, as in "Call RE" or "Spawn RE", with its associated rCommands. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
