Nice man, thanks for this. I'll be adding this to my scenario's.

Nice dude! Really glad it helped

The loop checks every second if there is any player inside the safe zone. The player's vehicle will be protected if the player is in it however if the player isn't in it then it can be destroyed in the safe zone. The other limitations with this as well is that the vehicle will stay invulnerable (if a player was in it when the loop fired) if driven outside the safe zone when there is no player in it however if the player gets back in the vehicle outside a safe zone it will become vulnerable again. Using markers makes some things harder as well as easier unfortunately.

Hey, I've had a ponder on this. I'm not very knowledgeable with arma scripting so take this with a grain of salt _Safezones = ["Safezone_1"]; _SafezoneSafety = { private ["_Unit"]; _Unit = _this select 0; _Unit allowdamage false; vehicle _Unit allowDamage false; }; _SafezoneUnSafety = { private ["_Unit"]; _Unit = _this select 0; _Unit allowdamage true; vehicle _Unit allowDamage true; }; while {true} do { { private _unit = _x; { if (_unit inarea _x) then { [_unit] spawn _SafezoneSafety; } else { [_unit] spawn _SafezoneUnSafety; }; } forEach _Safezones; } forEach allplayers; sleep 1; }; I've briefly tested the script and it works (at least in single player should hopefully work in multiplayer too?) In essence you put down a marker called Safezone_1 and add it into the safezones array. Then the loop will check if any players are in the marker and spawn the safezone safety function to make them invulnerable. If the player is in a vehicle then it will make the vehicle invulnerable too. You can add more markers to the array as well. This code may be subject to exploits and will need some indepth testing and tweaking however I think this covers the bare bones. I'm not sure how to make it so that newly spawned players into the safe zone will be invulnerable without making the loop redundant. Could adapt this for use in a trigger however I prefer scripts. I've tried to add in hints however can't figure out how to do it without the hint popping up constantly. Could put down a trigger that displays a hint when entering and exiting the marker? I hope this helps

Stranded An event occurred. It's origin unknown. Some say it's just nature restoring the balance. Some say it's a virus from outer space. Some say it's Judgement. Nobody truly knows. What we do know is that one day the dead started to rise. Everyone who dies rises again to attack the living and create more walking corpses. Countries that had the infrastructure managed to withstand the event whereas countries torn by civil war, famine and scarcity were not so lucky. Altis was not so lucky. You are a drifter. A faceless roaming survivor of the aftermath earning a meagre living scavenging and selling loot. You are nothing. A nobody and when you die you become another nobody. Over and over. Explore and pillage the island nation of Altis where the further you go the harder it gets. Battle across high risk/high reward loot zones where the better the gear the more dangerous the foe but don't stay out too long. You don't want to be outside a safe zone when night falls. Take on odd jobs. Kill zombies and bandits for money. Build up your cash to buy better gear to take on harder loot zones but beware, If you die you lose it all. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3210541042 Gameplay Videos Mission Summary Features - Random Events - Safe Zones - Vendors - Loot Zones - Tiered Loot system - Tiered enemies - Somewhat balanced progression - Repeatable missions - Mag repacking - Ambient, non intrusive, music - Custom dynamic spawn system that changes depending on day/night cycle. The main feature of this scenario is what I hope to be re-playable fun that you can either enjoy in short spurts or play over a couple hours. Future Whilst this project is functionally completed there is more I would have liked to do with it however due to time constraints / inexperience I've had to cut features out. Over time I would like to add things like a sort of bounty system / reputation system plus expand and add more variety to what's in this scenario. I can't make any promises, beyond bug fixing support, that I'll continue to add to this project though.

Sorry! _______ Additions _______ - Added a means to reset your score level (other than by dying and losing your stuff) if you kill Bluflor. Update: 5 Apr @ 6:44pm Removed Western Sahara requirement.

Updated the scenario to remove the Western Sahara dlc requirement. This was completely unintentional and I left the dlc activated as I was planning on adding in the weapons and clothing and making a separate version at some point.

Scenario has now been released onto the steam workshop. Click the link below to find it https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3210541042

Update 01/04/2024 I've created a gameplay demonstration video that I've linked in the main post and also here just as a proof of concept. I'm currently play testing and ironing things out. I'm linking the video here too

Update, 03/03/2024. I took a bit of a long hiatus however I intend to release this ........ soon The base features have been completed. I've cut some things out because I didn't have the time/experience to implement them such as the conversations and lore elements. Now I just need to polish this up a bit and do a full test and subsequent bug fixing exercise then this will be ready for release

Hi peeps, I'm writing a script (cut and pasted from various other scripts) that spawns units while a player is inside the marker. I would like them to be deleted when the player has either moved outside the marker or moved a certain distance away. I have tried different methods and functions however they either throw errors or don't work as intended. One method that does delete the group will not work when the player moves outside the hot zone. I am a scripting noobie. Would anyone kindly be able to provide some advice please? Once the basic functionality is working I would like to expand this script much more. if (isServer) then { _Spawntarget = player; _Spawndistance = 100; _deleteDist = 150; _patrolDist = 500; _Spawngroups = [ (configfile >> "CfgGroups" >> "East" >> "rhs_faction_vdv" >> "rhs_group_rus_vdv_infantry" >> "rhs_group_rus_vdv_infantry_squad") ]; _Spawnmaxdelay =40; _Spawnavgdelay =50; _Spawnmindelay =60; _Spawnside = OPFOR; while {true} do { if (_Spawntarget inArea "HotZone_1") then { _SpawnPosistion = _Spawntarget getRelPos [_Spawndistance, round random 360]; _NewGroup = [_SpawnPosistion, _Spawnside , _Spawngroups select (floor (random (count _Spawngroups)))] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; [_NewGroup, position leader _Spawntarget, _patrolDist] call bis_fnc_taskpatrol; systemChat "HotZone_1 Working"; }; if (_Spawntarget inArea "HotZone_2") then { _SpawnPosistion = _Spawntarget getRelPos [_Spawndistance, round random 360]; _NewGroup = [_SpawnPosistion, _Spawnside , _Spawngroups select (floor (random (count _Spawngroups)))] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup; [_NewGroup, position leader _Spawntarget, _patrolDist] call bis_fnc_taskpatrol; systemChat "HotZone_2 Working"; }; if ((_Spawntarget distance (units _NewGroup)) >= _deleteDist) then { {deletevehicle _x} forEach (units _NewGroup); }; sleep (random [_Spawnmindelay,_Spawnavgdelay,_Spawnmaxdelay]); }; };

Please ignore, after allot of frustration think I finally came across a solution which seems to work.
