Delete Zombies in trigger

[Freddywall 11]

Hello, i'm noob in mission editing.
I'am playing with Revage mod and i want to make simple safe zone with trgger which delete all zombies inside the trigger. Any ideas?

[gokitty1199 225]

change ZombieSide to whatever side you have your zombies as or change the condition to another check to see if its a zombie or not

while {SafeZoneActive} do
{
	_Zombies = (AllUnits select {Side _x == zombieSide}) InAreaArray SafeZoneTrigger;
	{
		DeleteVehicle _x;
	} ForEach _Zombies;
	Sleep 1;
};

There is also a ravage safe zone module for that, no scripting needed, check out the ravage thread

 

https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/183264-ravage/

Or the ravage wiki

The module is called save zone i believe. 

 

Cheers

@Vandeanson method did not work, it only disable damage and zombies can come into safe zone

Best report it to the ravage thread then, there are a lot of experienced mission makers there that can hep with ravage topics. And if the module is broken, haleks will surely take a look. 

But did you check if there is an option to delete zombies within the module? 

I can check once i get to the PC, but this is how i recall the modules.

Yep, i was checked it. Theres nothing about delete zombies or something like this

[Freddywall 11]

Found how to delete zombies by using other @gokitty1199 script, but how can i loop this script?

_BluforInTrig = (AllUnits + Vehicles) InAreaArray Trig1; 
 
{ 
 if ((getNumber (configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> (typeOf _x) >> "side")) == 3) then 
    { 
     DeleteVehicle _x; 
    };  
} ForEach _BluforInTrig;

then back to the scripting option, what did you try from my post? where did you put the script and show the script as well

    { 
     DeleteVehicle _x; 
    };  
} ForEach _BluforInTrig;

 

when you used my script, did you change the name of the trigger to Trig1 and did you change the side comparison to be the side of the zombies? my script should work as long as you did your part

 

edit: for example

while {true} do
{
	_Zombies = (AllUnits select {Side _x == Civilian}) InAreaArray Trig1;//assuming your zombies are civilians
	{
		DeleteVehicle _x;
	} ForEach _Zombies;
	Sleep 1;
};

FYI, the ravage zombies parent is "zombie" - i use _referenceToUnitinTrigger isKindOf "zombie"; to check for ravage zombies.

 

Maybe this helps;)

Yes, i have change name of trigger. This script works one time when i activating trigger

much nicer thank you, ive never used ravage an didnt know of the "zombie" type lol

while {true} do
{
	_Zombies = (AllUnits select {_x IsKindOf "zombie"}) InAreaArray Trig1;
	{
		DeleteVehicle _x;
	} ForEach _Zombies;
	Sleep 1;
};

i checked the save zone and the blacklist zombies modules - indeed both do NOT what the above script does. specially not for hand-placed zombies.

I don't think this is intentional - will link this post to the ravage thread.

 

Anyway - we have a solution now;)

Now it delete hand-placed zombies, but zombies which spawn by addon module didn't disappear

what side are the zombies? and are there any other units of that side that are not zombies in the mission?

Zombies side is Civilian. Nothing more units for civilian

then literally back to the first thing i posted

while {true} do
{
	_Zombies = (AllUnits select {Side _x == Civilian}) InAreaArray Trig1;
	{
		DeleteVehicle _x;
	} ForEach _Zombies;
	Sleep 1;
};

Still doesn't work, lol. I tried change side to EAST, WEST, RESISTANCE but nothing help. Zombies which was spawn by module continue ignore the trigger

where are you putting the script

I made SafeZone.sqf, and put in init of trigger: execVM "SafeZone.sqf";

[Freddywall 11]

This script works well for all sides, but not for zombies which was spawned by revage module although they should be for civilian side
