I have played with COIN on Kujari. When requesting Air Lift I get all the radio command hints and the LZ is marked with purple smoke. I also see the helicopter get spawned in on the map. But it never makes it to the LZ.

Thanks for the report. I'll look into it.

Just played a bit on my own and here are a few points


Issues

  • On Takistan, It seems after clearing an AO, the "AO's left" will go to -1 and no new AO will be active
  • On Aliabad Region, it did give a new AO, but after clearing that 2nd AO of all enemies, it never turned cleared (I checked with Zeus, no enemies in the entire circle area)
  • With RHS, there's a 1911 in the inventory of the crate/vehicle but there are no magazines for it
  • With TFAR, Squadleaders don't seem to receive a LR by default and need to take one from the vehicles?
    • The TFAR radios included in inventory uses the deprecated 0.9 version instead of the 1.0 BETA by Dedman. Though Dedman states these radios can still be used so it's not gamebreaking

 

General Feedback

  • The ability to only activate one support at the time is a bit cumbersome. Say you want to airlift out of the AO, but your tank support is still active you must wait for the tank to bugger-off before you can leave. I'd say the used support going on a cooldown seems enough

Got nothing more at the moment. Will try to run a bigger session with my group and see if we can find some more feedback. But looks cool Whiz!

Dedmen*
once you pick them up, they will automatically be replaced by the newer variants. I wouldn't recommend changing to the new classnames as that would break it for players who are still on old TFAR.

Been playing it a bit and it looks awesome.

 

Is the script that forces first person outside vehicles but no in vehicles public?

Thanks! The forced third person option can be enabled/disable in mission params (multiplayer, slotting screen). It's part of the ADF framework. See ADF\fnc\players\fn_disable3P.sqf

Check the file header. To use it without the framework then add

ADF_disable3PV = true;

to your init.sqf or initPlayerLocal.sqf

 

And remove the reporting lines:

// Reporting
if (ADF_extRpt || {ADF_debug}) then {diag_log "ADF rpt: fnc - executing: ADF_fnc_disable3P"};

Ok, i'm a newby and really bad at this.

 

I have the InitPlayerLocal with

ADF_disable3PV = true;

and

player spawn ADF_fnc_disable3P;

as it said in the header but how do i use the function? Do i copy the function's code to the Init too?

If anyone can lend a hand, my server keeps getting this error message:

Sorry for the 3year bump but suggestions were directed to be made here.

Suggestions:

  1. Add this composition to your missions for earplug functionality, vehicle un-flipping, magazine repacking, and more:  https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2965509871
  2. Change how you word/display the required mods:

  3. Loadouts aren't saved upon respawn, suggest updating your framework or using a known working solution such as: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2764558652&searchtext=Arsenal
  4. Arsenal would be nice to have, at least have as a parameter for the mission. (I know this can lead to missions not being played the intended way)
  5. Support call in wait time is great for a more realistic feel but most the time they dont work as intended. 2 suggestions: have wait time set by a parameter,  use better solutions for support calls.


My own desire/suggestion:
Hey, just going through your COIN setup. I noticed the VBED's are dependent on the ACT which is part of your ADF framework. I was wondering if you wrote all that code yourself or if the VBED was inspired from another script you found. I have been looking for VBIED/VBED scripts and everything I see is player/Zeus controlled. You have the first AI VBED script I have found but it is very interwoven into your framework. Just want your input on how difficult it would be to pull out of the ADF framework and open this function up to the community.


I am still looking for the location of this function: ADF_fnc_createIED

Thanks for the feedback @Ironman13. Helpful!

You can use the ACT VBED function as you see fit. It's not a complicated script. The params will tell you what you need to pass to the function and the few functions (ADF_fnc_delete, ADF_fnc_delWaypoint, ADF_fnc_addToCurator, etc) that are part of the code you can either replace by script or include the part of the function that is needed.
