Hi guys, I'm making ravage scenario which begins with an action packed, panicky introduction, followed by a helicopter extraction to actually start the scenario. Everything else is already finished, so this is the last challenge I'm facing and I don't know what to do. I've created a lot of units for this introduction (civilian/zombie and NATO), but I want them all gone or dead (they get cleaned up automatically really fast) once the player leaves the boundaries of a trigger. This is solely for performance purposes. I have named each individual zombie, civilian and NATO unit and tried the following: [z1, z2, z3, z4, z5, z6, z7, z8, z9, z11, z12, z13, z14, z15, z16, z17, z18, z19, z20, z21, z22, z23, z24, z25, z26, z27, z28, z29, z30, z31, z32, z33, z34, z35, z36, z37, z38, z39, z40, z41, z42, z43, z44, z45, z46, z47, z48, z49, z50, z51, z52, z53, z54, z55, z56, z57, z58, z59, z60, z61, z62, z63, z64, z65, z66, z67, z68, z69, z70, z71, z72, z73, z74, z75, z76, z79, z80, z81] setdamage 1 but this didn't work (generic expression error). the unit list should be 100% correct, I have checked it three times now (the missing units like z10 and z77/z88 are meant to be missing). What am I doing wrong?

Hey guys. I'm having an urgent issue. I'm planning to make an Altis total map overhaul with edited locations all over the map. Now I've hosted a local server (like we always do) and my friend tried to join. It gave him the downloadable content missing "CST_R_Tower" when he tried to connect. We tried to find it for over an hour, and I ain't too fond of editing shit with text editors as most likely I will screw it up. (Like I just did......) I removed "CST_R_Tower" three times, or how ever you call it. (I'm a total noob in scripting and stuff.) If I hit CTRL F "CST_R_Tower" showed up three times, and removed those three... In notepad, the mission.sqm looks like this: https://gyazo.com/b5582cd347ca2026c9a7b89b99ce418e While on Wordpad it looks like this: https://gyazo.com/a84d3b43d40725b4b2464942e872cec9 Both screenshots were after I've edited it, but if I search on the web how to edit a mission.sqm file, they all look different than mine??? Now what happened, after I removed those lines, the entire mission didn't show up in the editor anymore, and in-game, when I tried to launch it, instead of green text, it was light blue text. And when I hit "Play" simply nothing happens. I've put weeks of work into this mission, and just because I wanted to remove some mod that I can't even remember what it is, or can't even find it, it screwed my mission... D:< Any help is greatly appreciated as I can't get myself to re-do ALL this work I've put into it... :( Thanks in advance. ~ Sirion.

Im looking for someone to join zenophone and me in finnishing up a mission project . its based on karrillions rts. ofp/arma1. Its being rewriten with zen's framwork. At this point were 90% ready for a very beta release . So ... If you know rts, zens framework or know how to code . please contact me. And i can get into more detales of the mission .

I'm having a problem with the idiot AI in my group. I have a path set for my tank platoon and I'm just trying to get them to conduct a normal movement to contact, but when we get to the waypoint, the leader drives through the waypoint, as normal, but the rest in my group try to converge on the exact waypoint, or drive in circles around it. I tried setting the completion radius to various values, depending on the terrain, but they constantly do this. It becomes a game of bumper tanks at almost every waypoint and usually a tank winds up upside down, totally borking the mission. Can someone shed some light on this situation for me? Is the AI this retarded by design, or am I doing something wrong?

We've created 27 maps that are of the Attack & Defend type on Apex/Altis lanscapes with the RHS mods. There are (2) Red and (2) Blue bases with a neutral base in the center. Each base has vehicle and player respawn points with armories (except the neutral). Each base has a "sector" with attributes set for who captures it. The uniforms and weapons are also loaded and saved (we will create an option to alter weapons once we get some of these questions resolved) On the below list are the areas we need help with. We've searched the internet but most of the answers are 3-5 years old and were having trouble sorting through them to find what we need. Thus, we're reaching out here to hopefully find the help and willing to pay for it. We have a Paypal account or can do something like purchase Amazon gift cards or if you have another way to collect your fee, it's ok with us. We're hoping to find one person that's knowledgeable with Arma scripting/triggers & modules who can answer all the questions as oppose to going through several people for them. If you'd like to get an idea of what our maps look like, there's (2) in the "Map Team" on our TeamSpeak (globalconflictA3.teamspeak3.com) These are the questions we need help with: 1. The KOTH maps all have a "rearm box" and players don't have to open it to rearm, they just click rearm. How can we get this option/script? 2. Currently, if we use any ammo, when we respawn the loadout doesn't replenish, it stays the same as when we died. Is there a script to reload all ammo automatically? Can this be applied to resupply vehicles as well? 3. How to set up the helo and tank "rearm" locations. 4. Each friendly base has a respawn with the possibility that the opposing army can take it. Can we make the respawns unavailable to the side that owned them when thier captured? 5. Currently the "tasks" show the neutral base along with the opposing army bases as "tasks" (all are visible) Can we set it so that the "tasks" start with the neutral base (with the other bases hidden) and then once the neutral base is captured, the next base appears as the next "task" and so on? (we know this is done with the triggers and modules, but can't figure out the exact process to link them) 5. We want to set the maps to play 1 hour each. Is this something that is done in Eden Editor or on a server? 6. We need help creating (3) "End Game" scenarious: a. Blue Team wins b. Red Team wins c. Draw 7. Can we make a setting that should one side take all opposing army bases, along with the neutral base, the game will end before the 1 hour timer ends? 8. How to put maps on a server? (or is this something the server support people could help me with) And lastly, there's a lot of servers out there. What options should we look for in choosing one? We dont want the cheapest, but not the most expensive either. We're anxious about getting these maps on a server soon. Your assistance will truly be appreciated.

Hello. Would it be possible to tweak the mission editor to allow multiple people participate in mission making?

Hello. I currently developing a coop mission with cutscenes and have 1 problem here. If camera change position, I want that all textures of objects were already loaded (houses, roads and etc..). I used this: preloadCamera. But looks like it doesn't work. Anybody know the solution how to preload the textures, before the camera change it's position..? This command, preloadCamera, there is no detailed description how it works. I don't know for how long it preloads textures and if they stay loaded even after camera change again it's position..? -_-

I'm building a multiplayer mission using ALiVE, ACE, and some other mods, which is intended to be a big 3 way factional battle, with BLU_F and OPF_F to be playable while leaving IND_F unplayable as the initial occupying force to be conquered. So far so good, still tweaking some of the objective modules and taors for balance, but I already have the support and logistics all functioning well thanks to lots of reading and studying of wikis. I can call in artillery and airstrikes just fine, and so on. I must admit, however, that I'm not a very good scripter and I often have to look up how others have done things in order to figure out something. My understanding of it, in regards to everything from syntax to eventhandlers is very very limited, so thanks in advance to this great, very knowledgeable community. So here's my question: I currently have players spawn in solo, ungrouped to any AI, but I want the player to have the option, with a radio command, to spawn a group of their choosing (one of the presets from the cfgGroups list I suppose), and have it join them under their command. As a second feature, when the unit the character is playing dies I would like the player to have the ability to respawn in the group, taking control of one of the other AI in his squad, which I generally already know how to set up IF the units are already set to be "playable" (respawn = 4; in description.ext), but have no idea how to set up if we spawn them ingame as initially unplayable AI. I have no idea how to do this. I have tried other options, such as just linking an unplayable group to the player in the editor, or even making all the units in the group playable for selection, but I ran into various issues, such as not being able to command the group if I selected a unit other than the leader to play from the lobby (obviously) or just having too many units spawning all over waiting for another player to join in order to command them all, or if I want to play ungrouped I'd have all these hangers on. All these issues I felt severely limited my options and I was getting rather frustrated. I finally decided, that for what I want to do, giving an initially solo player the chance to choose a group to command or none at all would be a fun option for the player and lead to a great range of diverse outcomes for how they want to experience the mission. Please bear with me and my lack of knowledge in this, and any help that leads to a solution is greatly appreciated.

So, im making a mission in which 2 helicopters land on a certain spot but they do so using the following functions: rec = [unitname,180] spawn BIS_fnc_UnitCapture; rec = [] spawn path1; But after the helicopters land and end the recording the immediatly take off, no time for the units inside to get out of it, so i was wondering if there was a way to make helicopters stay landed or if i needed to end the animation just a Little bit close to the ground and then issue an "Unload Vehicle" order. Thanks guys!

Hi, I've created some MP maps, 21 so far, using the RHS MOD on Tanoa and Stratis with Eden Editor. When I play the maps, I don't see my player on the "map" or friendly bases. Can this be fixed? Also, how can I add player ICONS so I can see my teammates during play? I have many more questions but I wont overwhelm this post. But one more is...I've created Red/Blue bases with a neutral base in the center. I set the trigger so the neutral can be taken by either side and go back and forth as may happen. After the neutral is captured, is it possible to make the next base, that belongs to the opposing side, appear on the "map" as the next target? Thanks for any assistance.

Hello everyone. I don't know how to desribe my problem in the title, my English isn't good enough on that.. I want let the script to randomly pick a marker. My problem is that the markers are being created dependant on the amount of towns on the map. It detects all towns and creates an invisible marker at each, with name "Mark_1", "Mark_2", etc... I need to know how can I let my script at first count all created markers (as each map has a different amount of villages) and then randomly pick one of these markers. The markers are being created as follows (a part of the script): towns.sqf /* Location finder for towns, villages and cities Places triggers and/or markers at these locations */ // Get each locations of villages or cities and create trigger/marker // Original script for finding locations by BrotherhoodOfHam // Final script by Godis if (!isServer) exitWith {}; //#define MARK #define OFFSET 0 _locations = (nearestLocations [[0,0,0], ["NameCity", "NameVillage", "NameCityCapital"], 40000]); { _xy = size _x; _trig = createTrigger ["EmptyDetector", position _x]; _trig setTriggerArea [ (_xy select 0) + OFFSET, (_xy select 1) + OFFSET, direction _x, false ]; _trig setTriggerActivation [ "WEST", "PRESENT", true ]; _trig setTriggerStatements [ "this", "hint 'Entered Village: Watch out in this area';", "hint 'Leaving Village...';" ]; //#ifdef MARK _mkr = createMarker [format ["Mark_%1", _forEachIndex], position _x]; _mkr setMarkerShape "ELLIPSE"; _mkr setMarkerAlpha 0.0; _mkr setMarkerSize [ (_xy select 0) + OFFSET, (_xy select 1) + OFFSET ]; //#endif } forEach _locations; // Now place units I thought I could just add a counter to towns.sqf, so I would get the total amount of all created markers stored in a variable, like: all_markers = 0; // Content of towns.sqf here (create markers) all_markers = all_markers + 1; // count each marker and store number in 'all_markers' But this would need another check for this variable's value, and also another code to select one of them according to the amount of created markers. I think it's kind of inconvenient. There must be another easier way to archive that, I guess. Is there any code I can use to get that in only a few lines? At the end I just need to: 1. find the amount of markers with name Mark_1, Mark_2, Mark_3, etc, etc 2. Randomly select one of these (i.e. to make it visible by setMarkerAlpha or sth else) Thanks in advance.

Hey, what's up guys? So the problem is following: I'm using a description.ext to make some Radio dialogues, but the text doesn't type, only numbers. This is the fragment I have in description.ext: "class mes1 { name = "mes1"; sound[] = {"sounds\mes-1.ogg", db+0, 1.0}; title = "Я - 0-98ой, начинаю работу.";}" It all works fine except for the one point - while playing the game Russian letters are not visible. What might be the problem? Even if I switch my game to Russian (as I am playing it in English), the other scripted dialogues which are coming, let's say from units, are typed ok and I can see the letters. But for those messages I created - no way. How can I solve it?..

Hello! Title says most of it. Attempting to port the TOH Seattle map over and noticing some buildings lack texture because of missing shaders. Can setObjectTexture be used with the object ID of the building to replace the texture? I can't really think of another way to do this. Alternatively if you do I'd love to hear it!

hi guys, im trying to attach an Eventhandler to a plane, so when it is destroyed, all usermade actions get removed. The script is run by an action. Here is the script: am i missing something?

I haven't found any related topic, only a few comments about the subject with no answer. So, my question is - is there any option there can be more than one editor online in 3den/Eden, let's say, I host a server and my friend joins me to edit some scenarios together in 3den/Eden? Is there any special mod for that purposes? If not, how likely it will appear in the nearest future, integrated in Arma, i.e. without any mods?

I used a model from another game but i made the geometry myself. So my problem is my car bounces when it drives then just spins out as seen here: I don't know whats happening, here's what I've checked so far: -axis is centered on wheel geometry -boundary is in right place -nothing from geometry is clipping on the ground -wheelcircumference is correct -all named selections are correct here's the geometry: I used the real weight (about 660kg) as the mass so could this effect anything also? and my model.cfg (is literally the unedited test car one): class Rotation { type = "rotation";

Hello there, i have read on the ace3 doc that if you use ace_captivestatuschanged To listen for a unit being freed/ cuffed but i cant seem to get it working everytime i use the code its telling me its missing ; or if i use [_unit2, _state(false), _reason (“SetHandcuffed” or “SetSurrendered”)] its telling me a ] is missing and i dont know where or how. if anyone has gotten this to work please let me know :)

Hey! Quick question. I'm trying to set up a mission that uses ALICE 2 to spawn civs and traffic, but I don't want the player to be able to hitch a free ride off of them, as all the vehicles spawned are unlocked. How can I change this so they're all locked at spawn? Thanks!

I've heard before that you can edit a config to allow more flashlights to be visible at once. As standing in a group of 32 units, only a small handful have flashlights visible. Moving around changes which of these are active. My question is, where is the config and what do I edit to allow more lights/flashlights to be visible. I've searched this extensively and only found different flashlight related questions. Edit: The max I can seem to get on the default setting is 7 units flashlights, or 6 when I turn on my own. Which has always ruined the immersion in dark or night time missions I've made for myself.

I am relatively new to ArmA having only played ArmA 2 and Arma 3 Apex. I have always enjoyed making missions, but I have never done anything very complex with the editor. I would like to start scripting more in missions. If possible can anyone direct me to a place where I can learn how to script or teach me the basics.

Hey Guys, I am making a mission with a shooting range and vr targets (based of Feuerex advanced shooting range). The mission that I am making is meant to play alone but also with multiple people. The scripts that Feuerex has made are nice for 1 person. If multiple people put on the glasses, then will for every person that has a glass on spawn it own target(s). My idea to make this right is if the script has detected that the player has glasses on, that there will be an option available in game to use Radio Alpha to activate the target spawn script. The only problem is that I don't know if this is possible and what commands I have to use. This is because I just started scripting and I am still learning how everything works. I hope somebody can help me out.

Hi everyone! Little weird behaviour for support modules: A simple work, but very hard to do: how to synchronize / desync the support(s) modules along with conditions? Say for instance: get the support modules if you reach a trigger area, loose these supports if out of the area? for each player ! Yes, I know, you're saying use synchronizeObjectsAdd and synchronizeObjectsRemove. Let an "open" (no) sync on editor, normally between player/playable unit and the module requester, then sync/desync on demand the player and the module requester. At ease! And you'll right for SP,... for the 1st instance! But continue tests. sync/desync/sync/desync... Right? Now, consider this in MP, JIP. These commands are supposed to be AG EG, and they are! But what for if the modules FSMs and scripts (a bunch of them!) are not "updated" with the sync state? I never had the intended behaviors for players in MP. The player on host PC (if not dedicated) loose the supports after the 2nd sync, The other ones have disabled supports (grayed in menu, even if no sync?!,) and/or duplication of supports. 3 artillery modules, 2 drops in icons menu... regardless of the rounds limitations which is another problem). I think there is something to do with (supports) modules "on demand" synchronization, because it could be fine to add/remove these supports along with scripts, and for units (players) we want.

Hello everyone! This is the new sub-forum specifically for discussing anything related to editing Take On Mars. With the addition of Steam Workshop and the release of our editing tools, there isn't a better time. The game currently support Addons, which means additional content that is plugged into the game. Addons can contain custom vehicles, scenarios, locations, and their required models, textures, sounds, and so on. Custom vehicles and scnearios also support their own custom GUI, scripts and the like. As time progresses, we will be releasing step-by-step instructions on how to make your own addons. Later on, we plan to add support for Mods, which means changing content that exists in the game at present. This means creators will be able to overhaul things such as the Mission Control room, the Map, the Lab, and even the Main Menu. Anything will be possible to edit. Lastly, we plan on implementing support for Total Conversions, these are similar to mods, but are much more extensive. These mean completely replacing the game with something else! A lot to look forward to in the coming weeks, enjoy! Martin Melicharek, Project Lead - Take On Mars

Hello all, So I have just finished the voice script for a mission I have completed, and now looking for all of the ways I can implement the voices and subtitles. Previously, I have used some like this for subtitles, and then calling the voice file (we'd record the entire conversation in one voice file) and the radio messages will follow the voice using sleep. But I am heavily reconsidering it as it creates HUGE files with just these same lines of code: unit sideChat "Depending on how long the conversation is, this can be a huge file!"; I feel, and know there is an easier way to implement such a thing along with voice scripts. I have watched this video by Feuerex, and it seems like the best overall way to do it (he uses kbAddTopic, kbTell, etc.). However, I have some conversations that will go on for upwards of 30 seconds or so. My fear is creating a huge, and complex .bikb file and very long conversation.sqf, which could affect performance b/c the engine has a lot to do and handle already. Is the best overall way to implement conversations and subtitles is through kbaddtopic and kbtell? Is there a better option for better performance? I have found this on the forums and will probably be checking it out, but I don't believe it accounts for actual voices (audio). Thanks guys for all the help.
