anyone have working BiKeys for this?

Here is the scenerio. A side mission pops up in my mission. When that SM objective is done spawning I am running a script to add an action to plant c4 on it to blow it up. This is fine and works flawlessly. The problem I run into is that I want it to remove the action after 120 seconds, and then put it back on the object again after another 300 seconds. here is the code I am using..... functions.sqf aw_fnc_MPaddAction = { private["_object","_screenMsg","_scriptToCall"]; _object = _this select 0; _screenMsg = _this select 1; _scriptToCall = _this select 2; if(isNull _object) exitWith {}; _object addaction [_screenMsg,_scriptToCall]; }; then when the sideObj is spawned, this is used to apply the addaction.. sideMissionUp = true; publicVariable "sideMissionUp"; _null = [] execVM "sm\smUp.sqf"; //Wait until objective is destroyed waitUntil {sleep 0.5; !alive sideObj}; sideMissionUp = false; publicVariable "sideMissionUp"; and finally the actual code to place the addaction on the object.. smUp.sqf while {true} do { if (sideMissionUp) then { sleep 300; [[sideObj,"<t color='#ffff00'>Place C4 Charge</t>","sm\sabotage.sqf"],"aw_fnc_MPaddAction",true,true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP; sleep 120; removeAllActions sideObj; } else {}; }; This is the problem though. It for some reason applies 2 addactions to the object. so the scroll wheel will show "place c4 charge" and the next line "place c4 charge" and for testing if I drop the seconds to just 10 a piece it will end up creating 4-6 of the actions and then after they are removed, add 2 more right after. What am I doing wrong? And also how would I make it so that when the action is used, it removes it from the list so they cannot use it multiple times.? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

player addMPEventHandler ["MPRespawn", {Null = _this execVM "strobe\strobe.sqf";}]; put that line in the init line of each unit.

that is exactly what needed to be done. just take the .bisign out of the keys folder and rename it what you have, place it next to the .pbo in the addons folder and it now works. Thanks

possible fix to the bikeys so we can run it on our dedicated server? works fine locally, just not on a dedicated. no one can connect

the server keys are not working properly on our dedicated server. no one can join it with the keys supplied. just a heads up.

good on you mate for this post. this clarifies a lot of what my curiosities were. Thanks much!

yea i tested this earlier as well. Same as kamaradski. The initial startup weather works fine, its just it does not seem to want to change off that. I tried to run the debug as well and it does not show hints either. this was tested locally on the multiplayer editor. I have not tried it on our dedicated yet.

updated with most current script. Added a bunch of bells and whistles.

About This script gives the player the ability to add a scroll wheel command to paradrop an ammo crate out of any flying vehicle. I was searching around for one that worked the way I wanted it to and could not find any, so I tossed one together myself. I hope this can be of use for others in the community. How it Works It's all done through addActions. Should be Multiplayer and JIP compatible, let me know if it isn't. If you have any suggestions or problems, please post! Installation create a file named aw_drop.sqf in your mission folder. put the following code in that file. aw_drop.sqf /* ::: ::: ::: ::: ::: ::: :+: :+: :+: :+: :+: :+: +:+ +:+ +:+ +:+ +:+ +:+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ +#+ #+# #+# #+# #+# #+# #+# ### ### ### ### ### ### Helicopter ammo box drop script (aw_drop.sqf) was written by Jester [AW] of AhoyWorld.co.uk You may add or alter this code to your liking as long as you leave the authors name in place. set _reloadtime = 30 to however many seconds you want before it is available to use again. place "this addAction ["<t color='#0000f6'>Ammo Drop</t>", "aw_drop.sqf",[1],0,false,true,""," driver _target == _this"];" in the helicopter/plane init field. change the loadouts to the crate to your likings. */ private ["_heli", "_reloadtime"]; // lets set some local variables _heli = _this select 0; _chuteType = "B_Parachute_02_F"; //parachute for blufor, for opfor and greenfor replace the 'B' with 'O' or 'G' respectively _crateType = "B_supplyCrate_F"; //ammocrate class for blufor, feel free to change to whichever box you desire _smokeType = "SmokeShellPurple"; //smoke shell color you want to use _lightType = "Chemlight_blue"; //chemlightcolor you want used _reloadtime = 600; // time before next ammo drop is available to use _minheight = 55; // the height you have to be before you can actually drop the crate _HQ = [West,"HQ"]; // do not touch this! _toLow = format [ "<t align='center'><t size='2.2' color='#ed3b00'>TO LOW</t><br/><t size='1.2' color='#9ef680'>You need to be above</t><br/><t size='1.5' color='#ed3b00'>%1 meters</t><br/><t size='1.2' color='#9ef680'>in order to drop an ammo crate.</t></t>", _minheight ]; //text to display when not high enough to drop if (!isServer && isNull player) then {isJIP=true;} else {isJIP=false;}; // Wait until player is initialized if (!isDedicated) then { waitUntil {!isNull player && isPlayer player}; }; // meat and potatoes if ( !(isNil "AW_ammoDrop") ) exitWith {hint "Ammo drop is not currently available"}; if ((getPos player) select 2 < _minheight) exitWith {hint parseText _toLow}; if ((getPos player) select 2 > _minheight) then { AW_ammoDrop = false; publicVariable "AW_ammoDrop"; _chute = createVehicle [_chuteType, [100, 100, 200], [], 0, 'FLY']; _chute setPos [getPosASL _heli select 0, getPosASL _heli select 1, (getPosASL _heli select 2) - 50]; _crate = createVehicle [_crateType, position _chute, [], 0, 'NONE']; _crate attachTo [_chute, [0, 0, -1.3]]; _crate allowdamage false; _light = createVehicle [_lightType, position _chute, [], 0, 'NONE']; _light attachTo [_chute, [0, 0, 0]]; // clear crate - leaves medkits in place. add clearItemCargoGlobal _crate; to remove medkits clearWeaponCargoGlobal _crate; clearMagazineCargoGlobal _crate; // fill crate with our junk _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["7Rnd_408_Mag", 15]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["30Rnd_556x45_Stanag", 40]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag_Tracer", 40]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["20Rnd_762x51_Mag", 30]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["200Rnd_65x39_cased_Box_Tracer", 10]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_green", 40]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["150Rnd_762x51_Box", 10]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["30Rnd_65x39_caseless_mag", 40]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["SatchelCharge_Remote_Mag", 2]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["HandGrenade", 6]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["SmokeShell", 6]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["SmokeShellGreen", 6]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["1Rnd_HE_Grenade_shell", 6]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["RPG32_HE_F", 2]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["RPG32_F", 2]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["NLAW_F", 3]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Titan_AT", 2]; _crate addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Titan_AA", 1]; // lets people know stuff happened _HQ sideChat "ammo crate has been dropped."; hint format ["ammo crate dropped, Next one will be ready in: %1 seconds",_reloadtime]; waitUntil {position _crate select 2 < 1 || isNull _chute}; detach _crate; _crate setPos [position _crate select 0, position _crate select 1, 0]; _smoke = _smokeType createVehicle [getPos _crate select 0, getPos _crate select 1,5]; // let ground forces know they can resupply _HQ sideChat "Be advised: ammo crate has touched down!"; sleep 3; _HQ sideChat "I say again, ammo crate has touched down!"; // time to reload a new ammo crate sleep _reloadtime; // we are back in action vehicle player vehicleChat "Ammo drop available..."; AW_ammoDrop = nil; publicVariable "AW_ammoDrop"; }; Add this to your vehicles init: this addAction ["<t color='#0000f6'>Ammo Drop</t>", "aw_drop.sqf",[1],0,false,true,""," driver _target == _this"]; Issues you are able to drop the ammo box from any height. This means that you CAN drop it while landed, which in turn will cause some major damage to your bird. If anyone feels like adding a height check in there, by all means go for it. This is just a base script to build off of that we are going to try. ****** FIXED ******** (you can now set the height the vehicle needs to be before it is allowed to be dropped) anyone on the vehicle can use atm. working on a fix for this. ******FIXED****** (only the pilot of the vehicle will be able to drop cargo, and only when in the driver seat) Lastly, feel free to post any bugs you may encounter with this so that I may correct them. Thanx in advance, Jester [AW] Changelog- 11/22/2013 - JIP compatible 11/22/2013 - added a bunch of stuff. made code pretty. ready to rock and roll. 11/21/2013 - 1.0 Released

Yeah, i would love for this to be implemented into EOS. right bIS jacked them way back up to aimbot again.

is this not working for dedicated servers? I have tried it but it just does not work on a dedicated for some reason. It does however work fine locally.

while {true} do { waitUntil {sleep 0.5; alive player}; if ((getPlayerUID player) in _UIDArray) then { _UIDArray = [uIDS IN HERE]; if (typeOf player != "B_Helipilot_F") then { private "_v"; while {alive player} do { waitUntil {sleep 0.5; vehicle player != player}; _v = vehicle player; if (_v isKindOf "Helicopter" && !(_v isKindOf "ParachuteBase")) then { if (driver _v == player) then { player action ["eject", _v]; waitUntil {sleep 0.5; vehicle player == player}; player action ["engineOff", _v]; hint "Pilots/Clan members only"; }; }; }; } else { waitUntil {sleep 0.5; !alive player}; }; }; there you go, wrapped in code tags

what do you mean by the "clients init" ? Do you mean the init.sqf in the mission folder? would love to give this a try. Or are you meaning the init line of a unit placed on the map?

so is this still unable to connect to a localhost? I have tried everything I can think of and it just will not connect locally.
