5176 Added RF classnames to arrays for; manroadblock secondary mission, opforconvoytrucktypes, civcars and dep helicopters
5178 New format for prizes array, now contains an init string to change camo nets, slat armour etc <<<< Thanks to @Schatten
5183 New prize system works for airdropped land vehicles
5184 New prize system works for aircraft spawned out of airdrop containers
5186 Build -
That works. I was never going to stumble across that solution, thank you, brother.
Interesting point, top line of code works, bottom one gives error
["B_MBT_01_cannon_F","['Sand',1],['showBags',1,'showCamonetTurret',1,'showCamonetHull',1]"] ['B_MBT_01_cannon_F','["Sand",1],["showBags",1,"showCamonetTurret",1,"showCamonetHull",1]']

Guys, I'm struggling with BIS_fnc_initvehicle.
I'm spawning a randomly chosen vehicle, its class name comes from an array and the init line comes from there too.
["B_MBT_01_cannon_F","['Sand',1],['showBags',1,'showCamonetTurret',1,'showCamonetHull',1]"]
The script gets the classname and spawns the vehicle, but the vehicle doesn't get the camonet. (it's spawned behind a flying aircraft and has a parachute attached and drifts to the ground if that's relevant)
private ["_initresult"]; _cargo= createVehicle [_droptype, (_dropvehactual modelToWorld [0,-25,-10]), [],0,"FLY"]; sleep 1; if (_initstring isNotEqualTo "") then { _initresult = [_cargo, _initstring] call BIS_fnc_initVehicle; diag_log format ["&&&Applied init %1, %2", _initstring, _initresult]; };
//17:29:08 "&&&Applied init ['Sand',1],['showBags',1,'showCamonetTurret',1,'showCamonetHull',1], true"
Note that if I use the export function from virtual garage and execute that from BIS debug, the vehicle spawns complete with camo net
-
It worked well with relatively little tweaking and performance was good. I miss it too.

No, I stopped using it some time ago for the same reason.

OMG lol
The embassy is (partly) 3686993: vn_embassy_01_02.p3d
(((str _x) find "sy_01") isEqualTo -1) and
OK, so I need to find out what I was trying to filter out with that string and improve the filter. I have a vague memory that it's something on Tanoa, maybe the piles of sugar cane or something similar.
**edit** Yeah, it's all the Tanoa stockyard conveyors and stuff. OK, I need to improve that filter- 1
-
Hmmm, further investigation;
That script also finds all the hotels and the array does have one of the hotels in Saigon that is further from the centre position than the embassy. So I don't think it's distance or performance related -
Guys, can anyone help?
During mission start, I use this to find all the big buildings on each map.
bighouses = (nearestTerrainObjects [[worldSize/2, worldSize/2], ["house", "tourism", "building", "hospital"], worldSize/sqrt 2, false, true]) select { ((count (_x buildingPos -1)) > 11) and (((str _x) find "pier_f") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "BIS_N") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "cargo") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "small") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "shop") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "hangar") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "scf") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "warehouse_02") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "warehouse_01") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "drydock") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "storagetank") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "addon") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "slum") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "crane") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "containerline") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "sy_01") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "multistorybuilding") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "hut_") isEqualTo -1) and (((str _x) find "ruins") isEqualTo -1) and ((_x call BIS_fnc_objectHeight) > 5.6) };// used when we need a large house with lots of positions, barricade defend etc. included barracks
Problem is, it doesn't find the embassy on Cam_Lao_Nam.
The object is a building as far as nearestTerrainObjects is concerned, and is within the radius of the position suppliled- - I've checked that.
nearestterrainobjects pos is [10240,10240] and the radius is 14481. The embassy is actually 9100m away, so it's well within range
It fits the other criteria in the code too, it's 33m high and has 55 buildingpos in it.
The bighouses array is populated. On CLN it has 523 objects in it, but not the embassy in Saigon.
Am I just killing the VM with the huge radius?

@dedmen, I know this isn't the place or indeed the time to ask this, but if you could find a way to make the thermal imaging a little more like how it was, I would be ever so grateful, and I know I speak for many here.

Such a shame we've come to this. A feature so comprehensively ruined.

Having spent time alone with my first bite on the Covid sandwich, it seemed like a good time to get down into the mission and write some stuff.
Mission updated to 1.26.5157.Two new secondary missions, both quite good fun.
KIll the enemy spy sub is teased in the above post - players are tasked with destroying an enemy SDV that is reconnoitering BLUFOR assets nearby. The sub comes to periscope depth near the shore, raises scopes, takes a few pics, then submerges and relocates before coming up again. It's quite hard to complete this one. I've found MAAWS HE rockets are the best way, and they are still hard to get accurate fire in. It might be possible to 'depth-charge' the sub with grenades from a boat if you can get accurate fire on it before it dives. I've not actually tried that particular method yet - having a drone overhead to help spot will help, it can see the SDV underwater quite well. Thermal only shows the mast and periscope when it's on the surface.
The other new secondary is called mortar smoke. Friendlies have asked for fire support in the shape of a smoke screen while they attempt to break contact with the enemy. Mk6 mortars are the way to do this. Bit easier, this one.
Few other fixes including making services at the vehicle depot easier by increasing its radius.Full changelog in spoiler below and new files on Google drive link on first post.
Spoiler5138: Fix for AI units spawning and getting stuck inside shipping containers.
5139: Increased radius so vehicles don't have to get so close to vehicle depot to be serviced.
5140: Tweaks to inhouse function so units and vehicles won't spawn inside dome_big and dome_small.
5142: Fixed minor bug in DEP when not playing a Prairie Fire mission.
5144: Players get more time to instruct airdrop crew where they want ne assets dropped. Was 60 seconds, now 90.
5146: Added data for subsspy secondary to secondary mission manager.
5148: Fixed bugged adding of magazines to BLUFOR boat in nastyboatpatrol secondary.
5149: Gave findriverroute function more time to run. Speeded up the 'park the boat at a pier' routine for nastyboatpatrol.
5151: Replaced first instance of Cheetah with Sandstorm in prize array.
5153 and 5154: Improved landmassid data on Tanoa.
5155: Added new secondary missions, killspysub and mortarsmoke
5157: build publish 1.26.5157

Hi!
First thing - are you running any mods? Don't run ACE or CBA, they can break the mission.
Make sure the server isn't trying to autoinit the mission. Server CFG file, I think. I use FASTER launcher if it helps
Also, the server max players might be set to zero, also in server.cfg
If you're having issues, let me know and we'll see if you can join my serverr/
