Transform simple message to the BorderGuard ! Hello ! I would like to introduce You the BorderGuard, advanced border protection for DM and TMD multiplayer missions with limited combat zone. Download: BorderGuard 1.3 (Two examples included) NOTE: BorderGuard is completely Client side script, It will be executed only on Live Servers there is nothing to do on Dedicated Servers NOTE: All globals defined in this and in all my other scripts have prefix 'LW_' (there is no exception) What does it do ? When player enter/leave specific trigger BorderGuard displays warning and creates new task. Player then have to go back to combat zone to successfully complete the task, if he fail to do so or if he stay in/out of the trigger he is executed. This task is always removed after completion, BorderGuard additionally provides task for whole mission and it's final state depends on player's behavior during the match. To satisfy all needs BorderGuards provides 7 parameters ready to be assigned from paramsArray, it can also handle with both 'simple borders' and 'multiple borders' and for debug purposes You can use system messages to monitor BorderGuards actions. Parameters: BorderGuard Mode Action Delay BorderGuard May Kill Task Delay Task Distance Task Duration Warning Style Additional Options: Create Borders Simple Borders System Messages Two Ways One Solution Simple Borders: You have two triggers surrounding whole combat zone, BorderGuard is activated when player leaves the triggers In this case the smaller trigger have to has specified name 'LW_InnerBorder' and all what You have to do is to run BorderGuard on activation. Player will be always tasked to move in direction of center of the trigger. Multiple Borders: You have multiple triggers around whole combat zone, BorderGuard is activated when player enters the trigger In this case u have to provide the center of combat zone by marker(s) with name 'LW_BorderGuardMarker', if You have, for example, combat zone with shape L You will have to provide more then one 'center', if You need to do so use same name with index 'LW_BorderGuardMarker_#'. Player will be tasked to move in direction of the nearest marker. NOTE: BorderGuard searches for 'LW_BorderGuardMarker' and 'LW_BorderGuardMarker_1' if the '_1' is found it continues on '_2' until '_#' returns position [0, 0, 0]. 'LW_BorderGuardMarker_0' will be always skipped. (just for sure.. I noticed that color check 'trick' but [0, 0, 0] will be hardly center of combat zone right ?) Implementation Files: Copy BorderGuard to Your mission folder and '#include' the BorderGuard.sqf in your init.sqf Based on where did You placed the BorderGuard change the value of '_LW_path_functionsBorderGuard' inside BorderGuard.sqf. Additionally You can copy parameters from BorderGuard.sqf to the init.sqf, just make sure that You comment them in BorderGuard.sqf.

working solution can be found here................ http://loonywarrior.dyndns.org/arma/Experiment_5.Stratis.zip

onPlayerDisconnected is fired after the actual disconect... player isnt there anymore............ and u cant depend on it, since it doesnt have to be fired... :(

lies and stupidity... what can i say ? http://loonywarrior.dyndns.org/arma/Experiment_5.Stratis.zip

at this point i hope that other ppl will see how many post i edited that thread... :eek:

if isServer then { { _x addEventHandler ["killed", { ["Task_Objectives", "Failed"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState; [["end1", true, true], "BIS_fnc_endMission", true, true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP; }]; } forEach [c1,c2,c3,c4,c5,c6,c7,c8,c9]; }; ---------- Post added at 19:05 ---------- Previous post was at 19:04 ---------- u should start here http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?158297-arma-MP-mission-ending-not-working

its normal behavior... last is on top... (its same for created subjects..)

may i ask u how old re u ? ....its about the same thing........... endMission is LOCAL thing u HAVE TO execute it on EACH client..... ...from the first page its still about the same thing and u re not listening to us... _x addEventHandler ["killed", {["Task_Objectives", "Failed"] call BIS_fnc_taskSetState; [color="#FF0000"][["end1", true, true], "BIS_fnc_endMission", true, true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP;[/color]}]} forEach [c1,c2,c3,c4,c5,c6,c7,c8,c9];

oki its really better ;) ..thx

no no no no no... :rolleyes: look.. u re doing it bad and the editor makes it even worse.. use triggers for "area based activation"

its not my topic :confused: ....look better :p

try respawn = 2;

zooloo look at this http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?158373-How-to-make-a-private-pbo

u can save values to the profile.... :) i already thought about how to do that.. http://loonywarrior.dyndns.org/arma/Experiment_3.Stratis.zip its not finished, it doesnt save the information but it already shows how to store them... i decided to use two arrays.. the profiles and the sessions.. profiles re stored in server profile and based on UIDs.. when client joins the server, server pick the profile from profiles and store it as session and sessions re based on IDs.. two rules... client never knows the profile ID client never knows the session ID btw.. i forget the best part.. its ment to be "modulable".. the ProfileManager just maintain the profiles.. but im actualy working on another script and i want to finish it first....

sorry but did u really think about that ? ...thouse values re stored in NAME.vars.Arma3Profile in Documents........ the only solution is to store the values only on the server.......

_MarkerE isnt variable but part of the string

hmm hmm ...when u die... u change side... to civ till another respawn... do u really try that from unit from different side ? try this condition.. "side (group _this) != side (group _target)"

its just theory but u should be able to create new template and use the same dialog as in menuposition template..

did u try ..in (items player)

im not an "editor guy".. :o ....i have no idea... but that code... thats like magic... execute that on one machine and game ends for all... :) and u can also define your own end... http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Debriefing

tunning :) this addaction ["interact",{hint "Give me a ride"},nil,0,true,true,"","side _this != side _target"];

how do u call the end ? endMission is local thing.. and u have to execute that on each client.. try this: [[_end, true, 2], "BIS_fnc_endMission", true, true] spawn BIS_fnc_MP; change or define _end...

thanks.. ....im looking for scull with crossed bones.. i saw it this weekend and im convinced that it was in-game img..
