About creating this mission:

We (Fewo and me) started to script a mission called "Nogova Life" on 1st October 2006 for Operation Flashpoint in order to create an RPG mission with less bugs and more features than Crime City.

Around two months later we converted the mission into Armed Assault calling it "Sahrani Life". Since then we've tried to discover better and/or easier scripting techniques, developing new methods to script Server/Clientside scripts and reducing the number of our script files.

During the last few weeks we've tested the mission in Multiplayer and we want to thank Zion, Hulking Unicorn, Delta38 and Erik for their support.

About Editing the Mission

You are not allowed to modify this mission or use its code.

The thing is that we coded everything in the mission by ourselves and now some people are stealing the whole mission and removed all credits and names and call it their own mission. We do not claim copyright or authorship for the concept of an rpg mission or the gameplay elements in it or anything owned or produced by BIS, but solely the code for this particular mission. We do not want our code to be stolen and manipulated by other people, who remove all these credits. Everyone is free to program his own mission, that can be as similiar to SL as it may, just don't use the same code. Since even the filenames of the stolen version (random numbers we use in the encoded versions) are the same and only a few scripts have been changed, I don't see why all the credits (even of all our beta testers and other supporters) are removed.

For compared MD5 sums of both, the stolen and the real, versions of SL, klick here

Current version: 1.68

Next Version: 1.69

Release Date: 04/2009

LAST UPDATE: 22.03.2009

It's a Multiplayer mission, but you can also play it alone (the scripts will work, but the Cops/Civs aren't AI controlled).

Nice work guys!

Still a few bugs, but great job so far! So many features to keep people interested, instead of turning it into a TDM! smile_o.gif

Here's a few bugs that I've encountered with the police, haven't been civilians yet...

* After some time, you can arrest any civilians, I'm not sure what causes this.

* Same goes for the tickets, you can click but nothing happens.

I've also heard people on the civilian side have problems holding their hands up. This isn't down to them, because one of my clan members was doing it at the beginning of the mission, then about an hour into the mission it says... "can't hold hands up"

Would also be nice if the police didn't have to pay so much for the MH-6. sad_o.gif They need choppers to act quicker, and get those civilians going to get drugs.

BTW, I have this running 24/7 on our Sahrani-Ville|Life server wink_o.gif

Seems to be a massive bug involving the Ammo crates. I just got off from playing it now and once you buy something (weapon or equipment) it'll either not show up in the ammo crate, and still charge you for it, or it will show up, charge you, but you cannot pick it up. No matter how many times you click take weapon or what have you.

Very frustrating.

Apart from that awesome mission, its every thing saharaniville should of been for me. Theres even legitimate ways to make money, i was raking in the cash buying shops and workplaces without ever having to buy a gun or anything. Another good thing is that the distances between every thing isn't too annoyingly spaced out like sahraniville, cutting the long boring drives to a minimum.

Also, where do you buy the car and suicide bombs?

Hi,

Thank you for your replies. We will note all the bugs you listed here, we will fix them if we are going to release a new version with more features. We have a long to-do-list, but we decided that we will wait to continue scripting until the mission is established. A few bugs are known, and we tried to fix them as good as possible. But now I hope you enjoy this mission as we enjoyed to create it.

Greetings, Fewo

Well, I played around with this and had some fun. At least I couldn't find any error messages, which is always a good sign! I'm also very glad that the mission doesn't require addons, which will really help in making it accessible to a wider audience.

A few suggestions (take them or leave them, as always):

- I was a bit confused that the police base got ammo-crates full of every possible weapon (including exotic weapons like Javelins), but that there were still weapon shops.

- When you open the bank dialog, you should start off selecting yourself in the deposit combo box. Otherwise, the default is to give money to civ1 (who I see getting rich when people are careless and forget to specifically deposit to their own accounts).

- Although the intro is nice, I felt it was a bit long for one that I couldn't skip (fine the first time, but grating if I have to watch it all every time I log in).

- Just a personal preference, but I like the independent officer model as a policeman, rather than the sniper. I prefer the idea of cops in berets rather than in fishing hats ;P

- I'd rather have the jail camera close on "escape" or pressing a "close" button, rather than being on a set timer. You could do the same with the civ-cams but just charge the $500 every 5 seconds.

- You seem to scale up a lot, for example giving players Javalins at the start and eventually being able to buy an Abrams tanks. Just because you are making an open ArmA mission doesn't mean you have to use absolutely every weapon and vehicle available, especially if you have only 16 players in the game (pistols vs an Abrams gets dull quickly). It would be quite reasonable to limit the cops and civilians so that equipment advancement is slow and that hardcore military hardware (tanks, etc) is never actually available. As soon as the players escalate to the heavy hardware, then it immediately stops being a cops and robbers game and becomes like every other military mission...

- Although you have your own shops and banks, you might find my SPON Money script has some improvements over what you have (though my bank doesn't allow transfer to other players yet, it is something I'm planning to add along with other features). Still, your dialogs are perfectly adequate; I just thought since I'd written my dialogs for just this purpose, I might as well let you know about them, in case you'd missed them (and they were only released a couple of days ago, so that is likely).

Good luck!

Hi again...

I've also noticed that the mission doesn't seem to be using a deleted vehicle script?? This is really annoying as the bus drivers act stupid with all the destroyed vehicles lying around.

Quote[/b] ]increase maxplayers to 32-64

Sorry mate, but in my opinion that will just lag the game out. Same as SahraniVille, the amount of slots that are available to use, is just the right amount I think anyway.

I also noticed that vehicles have registrations, when I was playing it, it came up saying that vehicle xxxxxxxx has been stolen! Great idea!

I agree with the intro, its nice at first, then drags on a bit.

I love the fact this if your game goes tits up, it keeps your stats so you don't have to start from scratch!

oh yea, a vehicle delete script is definately needed, if a car is a wreck it should despawn after 5 or 10 minutes.

other then that, it seems to me that the police is a bit "rich", they can buy heavy weapons straight away, i would love to see no rifles etc in the first 20 minutes, just pistols. it would be great if a cop looses money for killing someone, they would think twice before they shoot someone.

Mate the police need to be rich with the amount the vehicles cost lol... Even the Harriers and M1A1 is a bit extreme for a role play mission. I know you'll never be able to afford them... 1mil for the Harrier and 900k for the M1A1 lol.

As for the weapons... I would say that the police should ONLY have M9's, MP5's and G36's. Maybe even M136. Anything else shouldn't be there. Also Rocco, the police don't buy the weapons, there free. wink_o.gif

It would also be nice if you can take action against corrupt cops! The cops that are going by the law should be able to set the corrupt cops as wanted, and place them in jail until they have learnt their lesson!

Same happened to me also.

This mission has some great potential! especially with the way you can transfer money to people and such, if we got few good role players together people could easily set up there own weapon and drug dealing operations being able to sell weapons to unlicensed civs for profit. And the weapon convoy thing is also a cool idea for people like me who like to role play terrorist/freedom fighters, as well as the car bombs.

Iv noticed this mission is gaining in popularity on servers already, hopefully the trend continues, cant wait for future updates!

An idea i been thinking is how about being able to buy some of the 'real shops', the ones players can actually buy things from? they should be pretty steep in price (especially the more commonly used ones like handgun and car shop) and once a player owns it, he gets a small % of the money the shop makes from the stuff it sells to other players. So when another player buys a skoda for 1500, and you own the car shop, you'd get say 200 of that money.

Maybe civs could also run for president, it would cost a large amount of money to become a candidate meaning only players who work hard earning money could run rather then players who just mess around, and all civs have to vote who they want to be president at a designated ballot box (good target for terrorists). The president could then set the amount tax's on things, like shop owners have to pay certain amount of tax for each shop they own, and other players get taxed on there paychecks and tax's on car they own etc...

The amount of tax money earned would then go to the president, and he'd have to set what cut of the money the police force gets and what cut he gets. The president has powers like repossession of property from other players, setting laws, and gets to decide when the next vote is held, he can also pardon

prisoners and cancel ticket fines other players may receive.

This could set up numerous interesting role play opportunity's, like players running for president, president oppressing political rivals by repossessing their property and ordering police arrests, civs revolting and demanding lower tax's, terrorist using car bombs on ballot box's and such, armed coups led by angry cops or civs or both,kidnapping the president, terroists demanding release of certain prisoners, crazed car bomber demanding money from the government, the possibility's are endless. Maybe if the president is killed or decides to leave office, or disconnects a new vote is held automatically in which any one can become a candidate with lower entrance cost compared to usual.

If there is no president then maybe a default value on tax's is set or no tax's at all and the police are funded in the way they currently are now.

just throwing out ideas here.
