Take a look at the Sniper Training Grounds in VTG mission... Practice and learn how to shoot your sniper rifle in a point based scan and shoot scenario. EtAf69HZXgM

Virtual Training Ground (VTG) is a hobby of mine while I learn the scripting language and dabble with Arma 3 mission development. Basically VTG is a mission where you will be able to log in and proceed to learn and train everything Arma 3 has to offer as far as vanilla content is concerned. From weapons training, to flying, to CQC training, demolitions, armory tactics, I plan to evolve lots of scenarios to enjoy.. All beta content (models etc) in Arma 3 are currently available and layed out. So you can even log in here and see all the different items, such as light poles, fences, all the vehicles and choppers... Eventually all will be put to use in various training scenarios as we proceed with development. Current Version is 0_15 and now has a working pistol range, and sniper range. The sniper range is probably the most fun aspect right now, and has active scoring. Pistol Range (very basic shoot at random popup targets in a range) Sniper Range Scan and shoot at 60 strategically hand placed popup targets (randomly active) and shoot for points. In development and coming soon AT Training Shoot AT rockets at static and random spawning live enemy vehicles Helicopter Training From basic maneuvering, to mini missions of insertion, pickup, and combat scenarios. CQC Combat Engage live enemies in close quarter battles Infiltration Combat Sneak into enemy quarters and destroy key targets/equipment. And much more to come as beta progresses. You can login and check out VTG on multiplayer dedicated server. (Filter VirtualInfantry.com) Will update here as more features become available.

Thanks, will give it a try in a bit... Have to run out real quick... Why is something so trivial, so cryptic to figure out? I don't think any "scripter" would be able to accomplish such task. :D

so what does one use and why is it named Global? :D

this works great in editor... will not work in multiplayer.. any clues? The script works fine and the scoring in editor... just wont issue the globalchat command to server when in multiplayer score.sqf _target = _this select 0; _killer = _this select 1; _damage = _this select 2; _score = _this select 3; _killer addScore _score; _killer globalChat format ["Tango Down! Scored %1 points for hitting target %2 for %3 damage", _score, _target, _damage];

Here's one I found that works good, not sure who made it for credits.. put [] execVM "cleanup.sqf"; in your init.sqf cleanup.sqf private ["_delcode", "_currentworld", "_oldworld", "_newworld", "_notalive"]; _delcode = { private ["_crew"]; sleep 300; { if (not isNull _x) then { if (_x isKindOf "Ship" or _x isKindOf "Air" or _x isKindOf "LandVehicle") then { _crew = nearestObjects [_x, ["Man"], 20]; _crew = _crew + crew _x; deleteVehicle _x; { if (not alive _x) then {deleteVehicle _x}; } forEach _crew; } else { deleteVehicle _x; }; }; } forEach _this; }; _currentworld = []; while {true} do { sleep 6; _oldworld = _currentworld; _currentworld = + list wholeworld; _newworld = _oldworld - _currentworld; _notalive = []; { if (not alive _x) then {_notalive = _notalive + [_x]}; } forEach _newworld; if (count _notalive > 0) then {_notalive spawn _delcode}; }; change the sleep 300 to whatever time in seconds for the bodies to be cleared.

Can anyone succeed in editor with this test? Try to add eventhandler "hit" to popup target that calls a script score.sqf which needs object name, player, and a score to add to player score All my attempts result in what might be a bug, as when I shoot target, I get that file not found like error popup box, but its not calling actually trying to call a script, its acting like its calling variables as the filename :D Whats even more bizarre is that it seems to actually call the script... as a hint displays the correct data.. If needed, the target score can be put in each of the the object placed, but prefer to have the score data in script, as different targets will have different scores.. Thanks for your help.... ---------- Post added at 16:42 ---------- Previous post was at 15:32 ---------- Hrmph, actually seems to be working today, not sure if client updated.... this addEventHandler["hit", {[_this select 0, _this select 1, _this select 2, targetscore] execVM "score.sqf"}];

Heh, my spawn script from alpha no longer work, so looking for a quick fix. just played with 3.41, had zero luck with it.. all kinds of errors spitting out of the SLP_init Anyone else? Does this require [DEV]?

I'm not freefalling, and even if I was, it's of no benefit for you to troll those who wish to add their opinion, based on an assumption you are making. Seems like you need to move on to other threads, or perhaps go outside and sing with the birds. but trolling here I will not stand for.

He was not stating an opinion, he was mocking the thread adding zero value to it, basically instigating those having a nice discussion. What because he inputted before, he gets to troll later?

I welcome all those to talk and debate peacefully about anything they want, but if you have nothing to add but criticism, then you can move to another thread. These are the posts that should be moderated on this forum. Not the negative ones.

This game is not the wildernesss. Based upon the opinions of those who like this dumb feature.. Should we slow the game down so that it actually takes two hours, to get from hill 169 to hill 193 which is just 2 clicks away? Should we stumble over the rocks and terrain up a hill? stop turn around and help the person behind you? I am not a DayZ Player, I am a tactical team co-op player that likes the realistic effects, but I know where to draw the line on some of this stuff... This effect has nothing to do with realism and has nothing to do with anything but being a game breaking annoyance... And quite frankly as someone who is having very poor vision... it pretty much makes me want to boot up a different game... I don' need more eye strain thank you very much... So why would you add it? So some person can go... Oh I chose a lighter weapon so I would not have to deal with that nonsense... Ugh for real? You just turned off the switch for a tactical advantage.. so you are saying yourself it sucks, but you are going to exploit around the other players handicap... ---------- Post added at 20:16 ---------- Previous post was at 19:45 ---------- See, Thats exactly where the problem lies.. You who like this effect for whatever strange reason, just don't understand our complaint at all. It has nothing to do with fatigue whatsoever. We don't want to run up a hill with a 2 ton truck on our backs.... But we also don't want to ruin an hour of movement to get a shot at one convoy, and go oh dam, I missed the shot.. now the game is basically over for everyone in the mission because... fuck me, I only had one rocket (and like a real army, I don't have 50 people walking behind me with rockets for me, and even though I hit the enemy tank... it didnt blow up.. And as an opposite effect of realism, seems most of you have no problem in past Arma, when you were calling down paratroopers from the sky at random desired intervals, to join your fireteam, like that was realistic? But that's okay and tolerable? How is one thing justified but another not? What we don't want is the nauseating effect of a blur feature that pretty much starts as soon as you start playing.... Make it a mod, use it up all you want in your world.. Don't mess with ours. And I'll bet all of you that like this feature, wouldnt even play arma if it was iron sights only. Heaven forbid if you had no scope... well guess what, in real life you are not getting that $4500 scope for every infantry unit. So why are yo always using it? That aint realistic

Yeah it is a delay, like this part of the map ain't processing anything, after a minute or so it seems to appear and start working...

Hrmph, I moved everything close together, and rebooted, and it all seems to be working now.. just one of those things I guess... Thanks for your time. ---------- Post added at 18:03 ---------- Previous post was at 16:52 ---------- You might not believe this, but I moved the poles apart from each other (across the map where they belong), and now they are not working again.... But its more than that.... Because after many minutes I seen the teleport thing appear 3 times on one flagpole. But I only was able to see this once, never again.

its a multiplayer map, but currently running it in editor preview where it does not work. So you know I am not in [DEV] build, i am in beta stable.. maybe a bug?
