Herhaps some of you may help here a bit. I'm setting up a quite simple addon that, if present, will automatically set mando score OFF. It is based on CBA Extended Event Handlers, but its script doesnt execute at all :mad:

The addon MMA_XEH_NoScore.pbo has two only files:

config.cpp

class CfgPatches
{
class MMA_XEH_NoScore
{
	units[] = {};
	weapons[] = {};
	requiredVersion = 0.1;
	requiredAddons[] = {"Extended_EventHandlers"};
	version = 1;
};
};

class Extended_PostInit_EventHandlers
{
MMA_XEH_NoScore_PreInit = "[] execVM ""MMA_XEH_NoScore\init_ns.sqf""";
};

And the script init_ns.sqf

if (isNil "MMA_XEH_NoScore_PreInit") then
{
MMA_XEH_NoScore_PreInit = true;
mando_no_score = true;
};

I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong somewhere, but I have no time for much further investigations.

Wouldn't simply turning the score function off to begin with, and have it enabled via a called variable a better idea?

I know I was mildly annoyed when there was no option to get rid of it - the action menu is already buggerated enough.

To automatically disable the MMA score action launch A2 with this addon.

It works with this new MMA test version, which will become official next weekend.

Splendid!

C'mon gents, VOTE THIS, with a bit of luck it will be fixed for next official patch.

Already have ... come on the rest of you :)

[mandoble 1]

Something new almost ready. Now from MMA Navigation HUD mode you can open the new MMA navigation dialog pressing MMA Fire key. From this dialog you can see all your current waypoints as well as exising MMA ILS destinations and path to currently selected one (if any). If you are your group's leader, you can also add and remove waypoints on-the-fly.

MMA Navigation mode is becoming way more usefull than before.

Mando, congratulations by the way for making it into Project Reality! Was happy to see you in the Credits!

[kremator 1065]

LIKE the MMA Navigation ! Looking forward to have a play of that one :)

And also grats for PR input. I had a play of it today - and there is LOTS to learn, but teamworking is the best asset :)

[mandoble 1]

Well, do not expect to see in PR the same MMA systems you are used to see in MMA missions, I believe they will use toned down ones to simplifly their usage and to do not give so much power to some units like the AH64.

Awesome. Thanks Mandoble. You are a god in my book.

[kremator 1065]

Grats on release. Testing it out now :)

[vengeance1 50]

Well Done Mandoble, downloading now! Can't wait to try out that ILS.:)

[panther42 52]

Very nice work Mando.

I have a question regarding the Air Support Console. Is it possible to name the spawned aircraft?

I have tried the following:

            _plane = createVehicle [mando_airsupport_type_rc, _spawnpos, [], 0, "FLY"];
		if (mando_airsupport_type_rc == "MQ9PredatorB_US_EP1") then 
		{
		_VarName = "uav1";
		_plane SetVehicleVarName _VarName;
		_plane Call Compile Format ["%1=_This ; PublicVariable ""%1""",_VarName];
		};

and several other configs to no avail. :confused:

Thank You

I got a bug to report. It seems when the type 2 scud warhead is set to ground burst, and detonated on select islands the funnel cloud animation does'nt form. The islands it does'nt work on is Chenarus, and Zargabad. The damage effects, shockwave, shockkblast, and nuke base all work perfectly fine. But the funnel cloud seems to not spawn, is there a way you can fix this? I am running combined ops W mma ver 2.4b10. I spawned mma game logic in editor chenarus map, and launched evil echo warhead type 2.

[mandoble 1]

Magician, yes, there are chances to include some of these, specially if they would be downloadable as separate smaller addons instead of as part of a 600MB mod. The F15 is already included.

If you use the autolaunch you will have all the systems up, if you want to have some of them down, you need to start mma at mission level, if using the addon execute only the INIT GL. Then, in your mission you can copy the mando_setup_full.sqf, comment the lines of the systems you dont what to initialize and execute it from your mission's init.sqf

Chad_D, it might happens that because of the fires caused by the explosions the max number of visible particles is exceeded. May you test that in these island, but with detonations in places with not so much destroyable things? Might be the overal FX will need to be simplified reducing the total number of particles generated.

[Chad_D 10]

O.k I see, I tested at Chernarus airport and cloud formed. But still kind of a bummer not being able to nuke large cities (like Chenogorsk). Idk, is there even a possible fix for that?

[mandoble 1]

A complex fix simplifying quite a lot cloud FX while keeping the quality.

[Chad_D 10]

Could'nt you just add a new explosion variation that removed the fires smoke for city demolitions. I would think that the burning objects within the city would produce a sufficiant amount of smoke. Maybe just add a ["mando_scud_type", 6]; variation. That would either reduce te amount of fires, or remove their particle effects.

[mandoble 1]

I cannot remove the burning objects of the map. Might be disabling the simulation of all the area, but if I disable simulation then there is no destruction, all the city would be destroyed but you would notice it visually.

[Chad_D 10]

But it would destroy all the units and gas tanks placed within the town, which would create the post nuke effect. You could create a larger base to cover the area up, so the player wouldnt see the damage. it would be similar to gigans nuke, which would be o.k as long as the blast impacts trees and other objects as well as buildings.

Hey Mandoble.

I keep on running into this issue where mando systems do not initiate with this exact combination:

(I use the autolauncher pbo by the way)

simple editor mission on utes, place an opfor sub (from GNat's subs), a mh60 or more recently the sh60 on the blufor side piloted by me, and once i start the mission the systems don't initiate as they normally do in any other situation.

Is it because of the subs? Because i believe that is the only one causing it.

[mandoble 1]

Unpbo Gnat's sub, make sure it is not initializing MMA by its own, the version I have was doing that and so breaking all the mma initializations, even at mission level. Hope Gnat will fix it at some time.
