[Check if player, if not then remove.]

I have put that line in one init.sqf file, but it would not work.

Do I need to do something else?

Yes I do.... I need to start the mission in multiplayer mode.

[Check if player, if not then remove.]

Hi all.

I wonder if I can make one code like they have in OFP Dragon Rising.

Its checks if I am a player or a AI in my squad.

Like this:

I make a squad with 5 playable players.

If I play mission alone, then this code removes the other 4 AI players.

And if I am playing with one other friend of my, then the code is removing the other 3 AI players, and so on...

So can it be done with one .sqf file?

How?

Thanks

My first question is:

How do I get a weapon on back? (NOT Rucksack)

If u start game, u can have one weapon selected, and one weapon on back, then u can swap weapons. But how do I put a weapon on back from code and from my .sqs file?

My second question is:

How do I config so my units dont use the new stamina system?

[Activating SecOps by sqf file, how to]

I have put a SecOps module on map, later on I sync it with player with this:

Then I want to get my tactical airstrike automatic, and not trough a trigger radio button.

How to activate it in my .sqf file?

I have try this:

and this

SOM synchronizeobjectsadd [p0];

why is not this working

_trg setTriggerActivation["ALPHA","PRESENT",true];
_trg setTriggerStatements["this", "[""tactical_airstrike""], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;", ""]; 

If I create a trigger in editor with the same data it will work, why cant I create a trigger by code and get it to work??????????

[Respawn with default weapon loadout?]

how, show me how, where do you put this code, I need to copy and paste, and get it to work.... I have spend 4 days on this shit now.

[check squad]

Thanks, this is the way, but need to check over it.

When I run this code for testing with a trigger the whole game is freezing and then craching.

I have copied your code.

// check_squad.sqf

_array = [P1, P2, P3, P4];

for [{_i=0}, {_i < count _array}, {_i=_i+1}] do {

if (!(alive (_array select _i))) then {

	(_array select _i) execVM squad\create.sqf

};

};

// create.sqf

switch (_this) do {
case "P1": {_UnitType = "FR_Cooper"};
case "P2": {_UnitType = "FR_Sykes"};
case "P3": {_UnitType = "FR_Rodriguez"};
case "P4": {_UnitType = "FR_OHara"};
};

_unit = _UnitType createUnit [getMarkerPos "spawn",group player];

I am going too look and try to get it to work, but I cant code this so good, so thanks I am going to need some help.

---------- Post added at 11:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 AM ----------

I need more help with that...

I need to name every unit to its name it have, and get the gear they have.

for example:

FR_cooper

name: p1

init field: [this] exec "gear\p1.sqs"

Then I need every unit to join player as soon as possible.

If I do it manualy for one man it look like this:

_this = createCenter west;
_center_0 = _this;
_group_0 = createGroup _center_0;

_this = _group_0 createUnit ["FR_Cooper", [(getMarkerPos "squad_spawn") select 0,(getMarkerPos "squad_spawn") select 1,10], [], 3, "FORM"];
_this setVehicleInit "[this] exec ""gear\p1.sqs""";
_this setVehicleVarName "p1";
p1 = _this;
[p1] join player;

So how to get in all that for every squad member (p1, p2, p3, p4) in this "case" thing you have, and if 2 squad members is dead, do I get 2 men then?

[check squad]

Can someone give me a bit of code to check if all in my Razor Team is alive, and if one of them is dead, then a replacement men (Of the same kind of the dead one)

I have named them p0, p1, p2, p3, p4, p5.

I could do this???

// check_squad.sqf

if (!(alive p1)) then
{
   //Create p1 men;
   server execVM "squad\create_p1.sqf"
}
else
{
   // NOTHING;
};

if (!(alive p2)) then
{
   //Create p2 men;
   server execVM "squad\create_p2.sqf"
}
else
{
   // NOTHING;
};

if (!(alive p3)) then
{
   //Create p3 men;
   server execVM "squad\create_p3.sqf"
}
else
{
   // NOTHING;
};

if (!(alive p4)) then
{
   //Create p4 men;
   server execVM "squad\create_p4.sqf"
}
else
{
   // NOTHING;
};

if (!(alive p5)) then
{
   //Create p5 men;
   server execVM "squad\create_p5.sqf"
}
else
{
   // NOTHING;
};

I dont have any check on p0, that is the player, and when he dies, the game is over...

Then I run this code above once I have completed a task

when completed, then run "check_squad.sqf"

Or how can I do it in a better way?

[Auto Reinforce - SOM]

Well, someone that works with arma2, this is there own forum. Maybe they could tell us how to make reinforce when one in my squad get killed, just like when you play SecOp missions.

[Auto Reinforce - SOM]

SOM = SecOp Manager.

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

And this is found in secops folder inside mission.pbo

"missions\som\data\scripts\secops":

Foldername:

aerial_reconnaissance

artillery_barrage

reinforce

supply_drop

tactical_airstrike

transport

So how to get it to work?

[Auto Reinforce - SOM]

I have this:

SOM module, in init field:

this setVariable ["settings", [[], true, nil, nil, false]];

Then I got triggers, in activationfield Alpha to Delta:

Tactical Airstrike:

[["tactical_airstrike"], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;

Supply Drop

[["supply_drop"], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;

Transport:

[["transport"], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;

Arillery:

[["artillery_barrage"], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;

Now, all this is working fine, works perfect.

Question:

If you play map with a som module that are default and no code in init and so on, you get missions then and then, right.

If one of your player get killed, you will get a reinforce to replace that killed man in your squad, right.

Now, how to put out only that request?

This is NOT working:

[["reinforce"], player] call BIS_SOM_addSupportRequestFunc;

Like the other this is not working, how do I get autoreinforce to work?

Thanks

[Revive problem.]

Ok, I got this revive to work now.

And I am using default settings right now.

So how can I get revive to work with one edited map with one player (me)

And later I get my squad by script:

_pos = position player;
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Create _group_3

_group_3 = createGroup _center_0;
_this = _group_3 createUnit ["FR_OHara", _pos, [], 0, "FORM"];
 _unit_5 = _this;
 _this setVehicleVarName "s2";
 s2 = _unit_5;
 _this setUnitAbility 0.60000002;

_this = _group_3 createUnit ["FR_Miles", _pos, [], 0, "FORM"];
 _unit_6 = _this;
 _this setVehicleVarName "s3";
 s3 = _unit_6;
 _this setUnitAbility 0.60000002;

_this = _group_3 createUnit ["FR_Rodriguez", _pos, [], 0, "FORM"];
 _unit_7 = _this;
 _this setVehicleVarName "s4";
 s4 = _unit_7;
 _this setUnitAbility 0.60000002;

 [s2,s3,s4] join player;

Now, how to setup "revive_init.sqf" and "description.ext" to get rivive function to work. Now it does not working with default settings.

I need to get revive to working on singleplayer. And work with my team that is spawning later in game.

How to?

[Mobile spawn + stay in group.]

I am playing and make some small missions for my self.

Now.... I have search and look for hours now.

Spent entire night for this to work... But it does not work for me.

I want:

1) To respawn.

2) Able to respawn at a vehicle, lets say a LAV25_HQ car. (That I or someone in my squad are moving around from time to time.)

So a mobile respawn is what I need.

3) When I die, or someone in my squad (4-5 AI) I want to autojoin my group, and I, the player ar leader of team, then I want to respawn as a leader of my squad.

Please give me some right stuff that works. I dont need to spend more hours on Bohemias forum on this spawn thing.

Thanks :D

[Revive Script]

Ok finally figured out how to make it only revive and its so simple I could kick myself :o just make the number of available respawn points =0 in the config

Also there is a Mobile HQ Respawn built into the script, actually reading the PDF in more detail explained how to set it up as a replacement for the mobile mash tent deployed from the squad leader.

The only thing is does is leave a dead wreck on the map from when its destroyed. Not sure what the best way is to police these, will the garbage module delete these? Previously I used the rather nice simple vehicle respawn script that removed the wreck when the vehicle respawned, not seen that option in the revive script yet unless I missed it :confused:

By the way what a fantastic bit of scripting

Are you talking about this script or do you talk about something built ingame?

And if you know stuff, please do let us know how and what you are doing.

---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:32 PM ----------
