    The below code is from the init.sqf in the HALO folder. The red text near the end indicates the variable that is missing. The Green text shows you where it should be. Do not change this value to anything less than 60. Copy the the red text and paste it where trhe green text indicates. Dont wory about defining it twice. Only matters that the server gets it.

    Tested everything and so far no problems when playing, but I did check my .rpt and getting same error as ssechaud. I did the testing in editor and hosted server.

    On a side note, anyway to get the marker to disappear from the map after the halo is complete and all units are on the ground?

    Look for the MarkDropZone.sqf in the scripts folder, and replace it with the following:

    //by Kempco
_aircraft 	= _this select 0;
_DZ 		= _this select 1;
_side		= _this select 2;

_dropZoneMarker = _aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_DropZoneMarker";
deleteMarker _dropZoneMarker;//Delete Just in case Old One Is Still Active
_name = format["JTK_HALO_DZ_Marker_%1",_aircraft];
_m = createMarker [_name,_DZ];
_m setMarkerColor "COLORGreen";
_m setmarkerType "mil_end";
_m setMarkerSize [0.7,0.7];
_aircraft setVariable ["JTK_HALO_DropZoneMarker",_m,true];

if (typeName(_aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_VehDrop") != "BOOL") then {
_m setmarkerText "";
_m setMarkerColor "ColorBlue";
};

[_aircraft] spawn {
_aircraft = _this select 0;
WaitUntil {(_aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_Takeoff") OR (_aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_Cancelled")};
if (_aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_Takeoff") then {
	sleep 2;
	_HALO_units = _aircraft getVariable "HALO_Units";
	{WaitUntil {position _x select 2 > 100}} foreach _HALO_units;
	{WaitUntil {position _x select 2 <= 50}} foreach _HALO_units;
};	
sleep 10;
_m = _aircraft getVariable "JTK_HALO_DropZoneMarker";
if (!isNil "_m") then {deletemarker _m};
};

    Thanks for the update! :) I had a quick test with ACE and default settings copying from the example mission, was able to do one jump with each halo vehicle then there was no action menu entry for doing another. RPT had this pop up:

    Error loading control mpmissions\__CUR_MP.Chernarus\description.ext/JTK_HALO_Dlg/Controls/JTK_Confirm_txt_ALTITUDE/
Error loading control mpmissions\__CUR_MP.Chernarus\description.ext/JTK_HALO_Dlg/Controls/JTK_Confirm_txt_HEADING/
Error loading control mpmissions\__CUR_MP.Chernarus\description.ext/JTK_HALO_Dlg/Controls/JTK_Confirm_txt_GRID/

    Was it a dedicated server? Forgot to define the delay var. Hosted and local not an issue.

    Kempco,

    Hey, I have hopefully what's nothing more than a quick question. Is there a class name or some kind of parameter I can use in order to start a mission with the Suppressor already attached to whatever weapon I'm using? The reason I ask is b/c for one, I use ACE pretty much 100% of the time, however, as I mentioned on another topic, I've had an issue using certain functions of that MOD, in particular the "Self Interaction Menu." It just doesn't appear for me and I'm also unable to edit any of the settings, in this case, the key commands. I can go into the settings screen but not only can I not change any of the key settings, I don't even know what some of them are since NONE of them have anything listed. The box is empty.

    For example, the "Self Interaction Menu" is listed, but the box that's to its right, is empty and shows nothing. Its just a white box. So, I'm trying to a least find some shortcuts around the issue for right now. Hence, why I ask about a class name or start up parameter.

    Thank you.

    Not really, the easiest way would be to get the weapon you want from the JTK crate and equip it. Or if your dead set on starting with the suppressed version you could do the following:

    1. Place a weapons crate with all the non-suppressd variants on the map.

    2. Go through and find what weapon you want to start with, without the suppressor.

    3. Use the script to equip the suppressor to said weapon.

    4. Create a trigger: Activation radio ALPHA, repeatable, and in the On Act. field copy and paste the following:

    On Activation: 

    MyWeapon = currentWeapon player;
hintSilent format ["Weapon:\n\n%1\n\nHas been coppied to clipboard.",MyWeapon];
copyToClipboard str(MyWeapon);

    The above code will copy and paste and the name of your weapon to your clipboard.

    7. Once you have the weapon name copy and paste it into the following script:

    _unit = _this select 0;

_weapon = YOUR_WEAPON_NAME_FROM_CLIPBOARD;//<==============HERE
_number_of_mags = 5;
_mag = getArray(configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _weapon >> "magazines");

removeAllweapons _unit;

for "_i" from 1 to _number_of_mags do {_unit addmagazine _mag}; 
_unit addWeapon _weapon;

    UPDATE: v1.5

    I think the last two updates (1.3 and 1.4) may have broken more things then they fixed. Anyway, the following should be a huge improvement, especially for ACE users. Thanks again Nomad, ssechaud, and SirSmok@lot for the heads up.

    Changelog:

    Version 1.5

    Fixed: Info text Spelling Error

    Fixed: (ACE version) player gets hung up on aircraft and does not enter free fall

    Fixed: Hint text replaced with Titletext when called via PVEH. (Hint text is FUBAR'd)

    Fixed: Error in expression <(_this select 0) setIdentity (_this select 1)>.

    Fixed: Water inserts not working when using "Bypass"

    Changed: Distance to marker buffer now is constant in SP and MP.

    Changed: (SP) AI fsm now verifies unit is alive when chute is deployed.

    Added: Two bypass example missions.

    The easiest way would be to disableUserInput When a key is pressed and re enable when released. Or Disable on keypressed, spawn a brief sleep, then re-enable.

    _handle_KeyDown = (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown","disableUserInput true"];

    _handle_KeyUp = (finddisplay 46) displayaddeventhandler ["keyUp","disableUserInput false"];

    OR..

    _handle_KeyDown = (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown","disableUserInput true; 0.15 spawn {sleep _this;disableUserInput false}"];//This may be the safer approach

    Where the script is going wrong is at the first instance of hintSilent. Fixing one just kicks it down the line too the next hintSilent .

    In addition to the above stated conditions: the issue is unique to remote players.

    Has anyone ever had issues with the hintsilent command breaking scripts after re spawning? What happens is I get a script error saying missing ";". Logic would dictate that there is a missing ";" however prior to re spawning, there is no script error, the text appears as it should, and the script runs fine. Oddly enough, replacing the hintSilent commands with side/global/ chats or titletexts fixes the issue but that would require allot of additional work.

    Thoughts?

    This is an amazing tool.

    Thank you!!

    Is there a way to have my USEC HALO jumper be the ones who jump and then they change uniform to my patrol uniform???

    Also, could we add something like this

    a gear canister that would be like an ammo crate.

    Cheers,

    Those USEC halo units are amazing, and that very thought crossed my mind, but there are some major issues with replacing the entire unit:

    1. For sake of continuity, you would not be able to remove mask unit you landed.

    2. Replacing entire units is risky: 1 Variables saved to your unit are not transferred your new unit, if you die while you are the "new unit" you cannot respawn (assuming that unit was created post init).

    The gear canister is interesting, problem with ammo crates is getting them to fall without a chute is a pain in the ass because they tend to act like static objects. Would be nice to have smaller chute model as well, like the one shown.

    @Genpatton043

    If your chute is not deploying:

    You are probably using a MOD that messes with the parachute configs. To this point the only mod I know that does this is the @Pacific_beta. IF you are using this mod, then you will have issues with parachutes. If you are not using this mod, then its something else you are using that is preventing the player from entering the parachute in the correct position. I can only confirm that the scripts with vanilla and with ACE.

    If Your Chute is Deploying:

    In order for the AI units in your squad land, and have their weapons and gear restored, they are deleted and reset. You are likely team switching to the non-leader position and being deleted the second you land. Since you are the player you are not resetting. Only jump as the team leader. IF you want to team switch, then wait until you have regrouped at the rally point and do so until your hear desires.

    @ssechaud

    That is because you are starting as side west then switching to side east. Start as the east side and you will be fine.

    ACE approaches it differently. Instead of the projectile handing the damage, the weapon determines the damage. So, the reason a Suppressed m4 in ACE does less damage is because the M4 SD is weaker then the M4, not because the bullet fired is weaker. I don't think ACE swaps the magazines, instead, I think it adds the SD magazines to the allowed magazine list of each weapon and leaves the damage dealt to the weapon. (Don't quote me on that but I'm assuming that's how its done). What ever voodo they got going on, for what ever reason, ain't going on for the AKMs. The good news is, the "infinite ammo" is not an issue in ACE, since the mags are handled from the cfg directly.

    Typo (thx F2K)

    The following should do the trick, have not tested.

    _unit = _this select 0;
_group = group _unit;

for "_i" from 1 to 9 do {
_wp = _group addwaypoint [getMarkerPos(format["WP%1",_i]),0];
_wp setwayPointType "Move";
if (_i == 9) then {
	_wp setWaypointStatements ["true","deleteVehicle (vehicle this); {deleteVehicle _x} foreach units group this"];
};
};

    Yeah, I was using ACE, sorry. I thought ACE was supported.

    ACE is supported, but there are issues with the AKMs: There is one where the magazines are not configured and another where the weapon picture does not match the weapon. (The picture has a scope, while the weapon does not). These have to do with the ACE configs for these weapons, not the script.
