Spyder Addons A collection of modules and scripts designed to aid mission makers in adding depth to their missions This mod was created to help mission makers add depth to their missions with ease through the use of modules. Paired with a greater mission making tool such as ALiVE, entire missions can be created almost solely through the use of modules. If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them. Unfortunately, I do not have the time to grant every request, but I love to hear suggestions that would make your life easier. A few screenshots can be viewed here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=579263829 Features Civilian Interaction - Integrated with ALiVE - Ask civilians about personal details such as where they live in order to collect intel - Ask civilians about insurgent activity in the area - Ask civilians about nearby civilians that may be preparing to commit an act of terror - Order civilians to "Get Down", "Go Away", and "Detain" them in order to maintain control over the situation - All information is persistent thanks to ALiVE's Civilian Population system Requires: ALiVE Usage: Define insurgent faction being used Loadout Organizer - Create folders to store loadouts and other folders - Save, Load, Delete, and Name loadouts - View class gear before loading it - Transfer loadouts and folders to other players and AI (configurable) - Access Virtual Arsenal (configurable) - Choose a loadout to automatically load class on respawn Usage: Sync module to object to add the loadout manager action to it Recruitment - Specify entire factions of units to whitelist -Whitelist units - Blacklist units - View unit gear before recruiting them - Set a maximum limit of units that a player may recruit into his squad at one time Usage: Sync module to object to add recruit action to it Vehicle Spawner - Specify entire factions of vehicles to whitelist - Whitelist vehicles - Blacklist vehicles - Whitelist vehicle types (plane, car, truck,armored etc) - Blacklist vehicle types (plane, car, truck,armored etc) - View vehicle characteristics such as top speed, number of passenger seats, fuel consumption and more prior to spawning it Usage: Sync module to object to add vehicle spawner action to it Ambiance - Randomly spawned animal herds, civilian vehicles, undercover enemy vehicles - Enable/disable each feature - Each feature is customizable to fit the mission maker's preferences. - Units are only spawned when players are near - Define spawn ranges - Whitelist/Blacklist location markers - Define locations where ambiance will exist Usage: Place module and input preferred parameters Insurgency (WIP --> Currently disabled due to lack of time) - Establish recruitment HQ's, weapon depots, and IED factories. - Recruit civilians - Plan coordinated assaults Requires: ALiVE Usage: Sync module to players to enable them to have access to insurgent abilities. Detection This module could use some love. Creating a realistic and believable detection system in Arma while maintaining a low performance impact is a challenge - Create scenarios with players as the guerilla fighters - Define hostile sides - Define cooldown timer - Restricted areas - Customize whether players can drive offroad without being hostile - Customize speed limit - Restrict certain vehicles/faction vehicles as hostile - Define incognito vehicles which allow you to pose as the enemy - Define detection values for each on foot, in vehicle, and incognito vehicles - Define clothing that will cause the player to be hostile/incognito Usage: Sync module to players to have them tracked by the detection system Documentation Documentation is very work-in-progress but can be found here Credits: Author - SpyderBlack723 Logo - Jezter804 Code adjustments - Dixon13 Testing and Feedback - AUTigerGrad, HeroesandVillansOS Thanks to everyone who uses the mod, gives feedback and/or reports any bugs!

For the sake of performance, things are fairly simplified, though we did upgrade it a few years ago. Things generally work as you would expect, helicopter > vehicles > infantry (its not that simple just to be clear). Each unit type has their own stats such as damage per hit, accuracy, fire rate, and a bonus "critical hit" chance and damage modifier to simulate things such as grenades / AT / guided missiles and such. Any fight could go either way, but these values are weighted in a manner that makes them favor a realistic outcome. It's also important to remember that unit damage persists between battles, so an armored unit can't just slam through infantry group after infantry group all day long.

Yes

It would be possible with further updates, but the feature is not included in ALiVE today. I'm also without knowledge on how dynamic pylons work so I'll leave that question to someone else.

That line would set the forcepool to 20. You can grab the current forcepool using [ALIVE_globalForcePool,"BLU_F"] call ALIVE_fnc_hashGet

Pathfinding is disabled by default and should be considered experimental in it's current state. Probably not the best idea to use for your weekly ops in it's current state. Updates have been made and will continue to be made for improvements to be seen in future updates.

Not possible.

free time and a thousand pings to @HeroesandvillainsOS

I will blacklist your steam ID from using alive menu

Waiting on one more fix, and possibly two more indexes before a release is posted.

Stand by for a fashionably late answer.

Sorry for the late answer, I don't really check these forums anymore. There is a way to programmatically sync modules, but the modules would need to be specifically setup to accommodate this behavior and thus will not work in their current state. However, you can manually add the loadout manager action via code. _someVehicle addAction ["Access Loadout Manager", "[nil,'open', _this] call SpyderAddons_fnc_loadoutManager"]];

You have always been able to set insurgent weapons using static data. Follow the static data example from here: http://alivemod.com/wiki/index.php/Custom_Blacklists But use this text for your static data file instead: if (!isServer) exitWith {}; waitUntil {!isNil "ALiVE_STATIC_DATA_LOADED"}; ALIVE_civilianWeapons = [] call ALIVE_fnc_hashCreate; [ALIVE_civilianWeapons, "CIV", [["hgun_Pistol_heavy_01_F","11Rnd_45ACP_Mag"],["hgun_PDW2000_F","30Rnd_9x21_Mag"],["SMG_02_ARCO_pointg_F","30Rnd_9x21_Mag"],["arifle_TRG21_F","30Rnd_556x45_Stanag"]]] call ALIVE_fnc_hashSet; Change the faction and weapons list as needed

Yes

If you are having errors, please specify whether or not the mission you were loading was being restored from the Database. (Also post your .rpt please) Thanks.

Spawn an object and throw it in the global ALiVE_SpawnSources array variable. You'll need to wait for our next release which is soon™

I could be wrong on this, but I think if you focus your attention on this section of the first snippet you can get a good start. I think parsing any cities that are inside a whitelist and outside of a blacklist will help prevent intel from spawning in unwanted areas. You can do this easily by defining an array of markers at the top of the file insurgencyWhitelistMarkers = ["ExampleMarkerNameWhitelist"]; // cities outside of these markers will be included insurgencyBlacklistMarkers = ["ExampleMarkerNameBlacklist"]; // cities inside these markers will be exluced Under the markers, you can define these two helper functions insurgencyParseWhitelist = { private _cities = _this; private _ret = []; { private _city = _x; { if (locationPosition _city inArea _x) then { _ret pushback _city; }; } foreach insurgencyWhitelistMarkers; } foreach _cities; _ret }; insurgencyParseBlacklist = { private _cities = _this; private _ret = []; { private _city = _x; { if !(locationPosition _city inArea _x) then { _ret pushback _city; }; } foreach insurgencyBlacklistMarkers; } foreach _cities; _ret } And finally, right after the `_cities = call SL_fnc_urbanAreas;` call in the first code snippet, you can add these two function calls _cities = _cities call insurgencyParseWhitelist; _cities = _cities call insurgencyParseBlacklist; Hopefully this will fulfill the desired effect. I am deathly tired so I'll end my post here, but if you have any questions or it doesn't work, please let me know.

We do not have full control over editor module UI's. As of right now, the list cannot be dynamically populated and thus forces us to use an input field. If BI ever introduces the ability to dynamically populate module UI's in the editor, we would gladly jump to use it.

All me

try replacing your code with a debug line such as hint str _this and see if it displays anything on unit spawn to ensure it's actually working. Also I would recommend posting on the steam workshop mod page if I don't respond within two days, I only check this forum once every few months.

Due to recent developments I have decided to pull from content from Armaholic. The link has been removed from the thread and will be pulled from the archive soon. If you were someone who used this as a means of acquiring the mod, please refer to the dropbox link instead: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9tsgtcxpeya4iz/Spyder_Addons_1723051.RAR?dl=0 If you used PlayWithSix or SteamWorkshop, this will have no effect on you. Thanks.

Should have no real consequences, disregard for now

Make sure you are using the most up-to-date version of both ALiVE and CBA
