Top Fun / Kamkazi - But for Arma 3

[Reynastus 0]

Hi All

 

I am trying to figure out how to enable respawns for one team while not for another.

 

This is for a custom TvT mode where one group is able to use planes/tanks/Prowlers to track down and kill the other team who have access to go karts, quad bikes etc.

 

This relies on the targets not being able to respawn but was hoping that the hunters would be able to respawn so that there could be shennanigans like dive bombing kamakazi runs. 

 

I was wondering if anyone could help me with getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.

If you only want to disable respawn for OPFOR, try;

//	Stop OPFOR players from respawning.
//	When killed they will be booted to lobby.
if (side player == east) then
{
	player addEventHandler
	[
		"Killed",
		{
			endMission "LOSER";
		}
	];
};

Although...

They could just rejoin the mission again.

Cheers,

 

Was kind of hoping that they would be booted to spectator mode or some such so that they could still watch the game. 

 

Kind of need the win condition to be all the OPFOR players to die as a win condition for the hunters, but wanted the OPFOR to be able to watch the rest of the outcome.

 

Out of curiosity though where would you put that piece of code? I am brand new to coding/anything programming in nature.

Regards

Cool. Should have specified.

if (side player == east) then
{
	[ "Initialize", [ player ] ] call BIS_fnc_EGSpectator;
};

I'm not 100% sure.

//	I'm not sure if spectating players change side.
if ((east countSide allPlayers) == 0) then
{
	"SideScore" call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer;
};

Place both in onPlayerKilled.sqf inside your mission folder.

 

Test it though.

cool thanks for the help

 

just curious though, the code above - would that work if the runners were civilians? aiming for the runners to be unarmed is all. 

 

or to make that work would you change the east to civilian?

Assuming the script works... Correct!

You could also keep the runners as OPFOR / east side and just remove their kit via the editor.
