Looking for a command similar to "linkItem"
HBAOplus posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/linkItem this page says " If there is an item in the targeted slot, it gets replaced." I want to find a similar command, so that when an item(called A1) was created, If targeted slot is empyt, A1 will be put in the slot; If there is already an item (call A2) in the targeted slot, A2 will still be there, and A1 be stored in player's inventory. Anyone can help? -
How to make a pbo from a small Script ?
zylberome posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Hi guys, Long time player here. On an other thread, someone gave me a really nice script to fit my needs. It changes every units CamouflageCoeff, so AI will spot and engage at 200m instead of 450m on a flat terrain. It's perfect for me as i dont use the 'right clik zoom' anymore. I find it completely breaks my immersion to have to constantly zoom to be able to fight ai on even grounds. Problem is : after searching on lots of threads, i can't figure out a way to make the pbo i made to work in any single player missions. If i write the scripts in debug windows, it works perfectly though. What i did: I downloaded arma tools and addonBuilder, In a folder named -MyAddon : i put -CfgFunctions.hpp -config.cpp -MyScript.sqf In the .sqf file is the script made by @Harzach. In config.cpp is written : #include "CfgFunctions.hpp" In CfgFunctions.hpp is written : I used addonbuilder to get a pbo, which i then put in @MyMod/addons/Myaddon.pbo and load it from ArmaManager. The name @MyMod appears at bottom of the screen in Arma 3 menu. But the pbo don't work as AI engage me from 450/500 m..... Can someone tell me what i did wrong ? And correct me ? I'm so close....... plz help. -
SOG Prarie Fire Custom Mission Endings
LeoLopez245 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I am aware that BIS_fnc_endMission exists and that there's a good level of parameters to customize the ending; however I am wondering if there is a way to change the font itself and remove the glitch overlay. Since it's vietnam era. I'm trying to keep the tone as much as possible, so the possibility of inputting a typewriter type font is the favored outcome.. I assume that it might require a call BIS_fnc_dynamicText function, but my understanding there is only a limited amount of in engine texts that I would be able to use. I'm also suspecting that I might need to create a transparent image layer, but I haven't figured out how to work that in. I'm wondering if anybody has any ideas that could solve this issue. -

Missile lock on script for RHS Mi-24G
_Soletti_ posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Sooo.... I'm currently working on a mission, using the Mi-24G by RHS. The only problem me and other players of my clan encountered were that the helicopter has no missile warning system. Or at least it has one which doesn't work. Over the HUD is like a picture of the helicopter with lamps surrounding it. A lamp would light up at the clock direction a missile would be coming from. Unfortunately not even the vanilla Spike launchers manage do get this thing working. So I was wondering if there might me some sort of script which allows me to have a working missile warning system. Even if its on one of the side MFDs. Thanks in advance! -
variables Passing a global variable to a script then back again
chow86 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
This feels like an obvious question but my Googling has failed... I want to pass the name of a global variable to a script, e.g. [myVariableGlobal] execVM "myscript.sqf" (this script will deal with other global variables, hence why the name of the variable needs to be part of the argument to execute it) And in the script "myscript.sqf", e.g. _myVariableLocal = _this select 0; Say "myVariableGlobal" was previously defined globally as "false". I now want "myscript.sqf" to define it as true. Simply writing the following in "myscript.sqf" should not work, since the variable is now only local: _myVariableLocal = true; How, then, do I make it global again? -
Hello, I wanna make some mods for arma but I have no clue where I should start and which programs I need to download in order to make mods. In the internet I'm only finding outdated tutorials from like 5-6 years ago. And if I want to make scripts, which programming language does it need to be?

Sysroot's Utility Scripts [SUS] This "mod" is less so a mod and moreso a collection of utility scripts created in hopes of assisting you in creating other, more complex mods/missions. The mod currently consists of 4 SQF scripts with varying utility functions: EzAnimate : Various functions for easily and efficiently animating objects in different ways. EzEvents : Various functions for easily creating and managing custom events. EzQuaternions : An easy to use library for working with quaternions and vector rotations utilizing them. MiscUtils : Miscellaneous utilities that don't really fit into a file of their own, but are useful for various things. Interested? See more info on the steam workshop page here. Any questions, concerns, or suggestions are very welcome and much appreciated. This is my first time posting on this forum, so I apologize for any mistakes. Note that the steam workshop page does have a dedicated discussion thread that I will also be monitoring. Thank you for your time!

Need help with Playernamespace for Heroes Survive
MuRaZorWitchKING posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello all, I recently have started utilizing Heros Survive and am looking into Saving some important variables via playernamespace, as I'm going to be running it via a dedicated server. Any and all help is seriously appreciated as I think my error is possibly due to the fact that HS uses client side vars? @Sgt Bombadil was helping out, but we haven't figured it out yet. initplayerlocal.sqf: [] execVM "persistency db\savedb.sqf"; private ["_player"]; _player =_this select 0; waitUntil {!isNull _player}; if (isNil {profileNamespace getVariable "HALs_money_funds"}) then { profileNamespace setVariable ["HALs_money_funds", 0]; }; _profile = (profileNamespace getVariable "HALs_money_funds"); _player setVariable ["HALs_money_funds", _profile]; //Heroes Survive persistentcy system: //Hunger if (isNil {profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_Hunger"}) then { profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_Hunger", 100]; }; _profile = (profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_Hunger"); Her_L_Hunger = 100; //thirst if (isNil {profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_Thirst"}) then { profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_Thirst", 100]; }; _profile = (profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_Thirst"); Her_L_Thirst = 100; //Temperature if (isNil {profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_BodyTemp"}) then { profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_BodyTemp", 37]; }; _profile = (profileNamespace getVariable "Her_L_BodyTemp"); Her_L_BodyTemp = 37; savedb.sqf: [] spawn { waitUntil {!isNull(findDisplay 46)}; (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", { if(_this select 1 == 1) //esc key then { [] execVM "Persistency db\autosave.sqf"; }; }]; }; Autosave.sqf: _moneys = (player getVariable "HALs_money_funds"); profileNamespace setVariable ["HALs_money_funds", _moneys]; _Hunger = (player getVariable "Her_L_Hunger"); profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_Hunger", _Hunger]; _Thirst = (player getVariable "Her_L_Thirst"); profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_Thirst", _Thirst]; _TemperatureH = (player getVariable "Her_L_BodyTemp"); profileNamespace setVariable ["Her_L_BodyTemp", _TemperatureH]; HALs money is saving perfectly, it's only the "Her_L" vars that are not working properly. Thanks again -

Hello everyone! Can you please tell me if there is a script for calling artillery by clicking on the map for multiplayer? I need that the map interface in the window be called up and that you can click on the target and that the action of calling an artillery strike can be tied to an object (for example, to a radio station lying on the table) and, if possible, a limited number of times. Thanks everyone and sorry for my english.

Hi all: Recently I found lots of amazing maps with a problem of airfields without the runway grid so it cause AI plane cannot take off or land. I consider to force AI take off by increasing its speed and I tried : this forceSpeed -1; However, nothing happened.I think it’s might be not relative to speed but the engine running degree，if AI plane keep engine running in maximum it will able to take off. so how could I force AI turn on engine staying in maximum?

(Script) Locking/opening a door with specific item/by specific player
Printedfinger posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hey people and thanks in advance! Just wanted to add a lock/unlock (in this case unlock) function to my mission. When the mission initializes the specific door should be locked. Only the player that has the new key inventory item should be able to open the specific door. Tried several things but nothing worked, game logic, nearestobject and so on. Also the building i want to have the action on doesn't seem to be a normal object, more like a basic terrain object i guess? Because even the 'edit map objects' module only shows it when i click on 'others'. This script seems to lock a door whenever your cursor is on it. Not really a solution in my case. If possible i'd like to combine the whole action with BIS_fnc_holdActionAdd. To check if the player has a key or not i've used this here: I'm kinda new when it comes to scripting - only looking for a solution to get the whole thing done. Sry for deleting the post, re-added the whole text and explained my case. Thanks, Printedfinger -
Scripting cycling planes with ZSU ambient fire?
EnderZC posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello! I am making a mission with addons. My main idea for the scripting is to have 2-3 airplanes in formation fly over the AO and having a ZSU fire around the airplanes, maybe ocassionaly taking one down. I want these airplanes and ZSU fire to go every 10-15 minutes or so to create ambiance for the soldiers on the ground. If anyone has any solutions/scripts for this I'd be happy to know! Kind regards// Ender from Zeus Community -
paradrop ALL AIs in One time without RHS?
Kaede Takagaki posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hi All: I am facing trouble that RHS infantry paradrop waypoint causing much stress to my CPU In unknown reasons and finally the game quit with the error of 0x0000005. So I decided to let AI paradropped by script: Currently , this what I using(the plane named as T1) 0 = [ ] spawn {{unassignVehicle _x; _x action [“Eject”, T1];} forEach (assignedCargo T1);} AIs able to jump out and no errors happened again, however the space between each AI seems so large and it made the paradrop line so long.... I notice that if the plane suffers damage in some degree, ALL crew and passengers will jump out the plane in same time so I wonder that script might working on improving my paradrop, but I am not sure how to write that script, could anyone provide some ideas? Thanks. -

Hi all: I am getting trouble in find out how to lower the front ramp of the Type 072 LST from CUP Vehicles DEV. Same to all CUP Static ship , there has nothing in the AnimateSource and UserAction. However, during check the config viewers, I ‘ve find that the ship has into few parts like : CUP_Type072_Main (come first) CUP_Type072_Front, CUP_Type073_Rear, ..etc Then , I find both animateSources and UserActions in CUP_Type072_Front. Which called : ramp_4_source ramp_front_source then I tried scripts: this animateSource [“ramp_4_source”,1]; this animateSource [“ramp_front_source”,1]; However , they are not work 😞 And the same thing to scripts from userActions . The problem might be the ship placed is a whole object but the scripts are from parts and it cause the scripts cannot work.... Anyone could help me figure it out...I really need it in my mission (I know I can directly down the ramp from options in attributes, but I need the lowing process ...) All ideas are welcome, thanks in advance.

Hello everyone! Sorry if I post a duplicated topic, but I still need a help. I have a problem that I couldn't find a solution to. On my dedicated server I need to handle players when they connect to a lobby, but unfortunately the onPlayerConnected event doesn't satisfy my needs. The problem is the onPlayerConnected and its stackable version only appear when a mission is started and it's doesn't work when there is the lobby or a briefing time. I would like you guys to give me some possible solutions, I just need to call a script when a player connects to the server in any time. Thanks in advance!

Help with switching units/characters in MP.
nyrok4 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello forum, Recently I made a mission that involves a linear campaign with 6 different timelines. In it you switch between ai characters after a certain trigger is activated. (Screenshots from Tier 1 Stories: Afghanistan) Link to Mission The problem i've ran into is that switching characters works in singleplayer by utilizing a trigger with "selectPlayer" in its init. But when on multiplayer/coop it no longer works. Does anyone know a workaround or have any ideas? The goal is to make this scenario coop. Thank you for your time. -

Is there a way to fix that? the problem is where do I put my script? or is it a typical Arma 3 problem? -

[Release] Grid Caching System - GCS
anthariel posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello, @super-truite and I have made a little piece of script to allows missions maker to make a better use of AIs and vehicles on missions. We are guessing that a similar system already exists but we wanted to have a custom system for some of our projects and thought it would be nice to share it. This compilation of script allows a mission make to cache units suchs as vehicles and soldiers with their respective properties (waypoints, stance, direction, position, health, ...). This allows for greater performance and (if chosen) persistence. Features: Grid caching GCS allows the mission maker to automatically cache into the memory AIs andvehicles. Waypoints assigned to a group or a unit are also cached and are reapplied when the unit or group is set up. The mission creator, if necessary, can also exclude a unit or a vehicle from the cache so that the system does not take it into account. Persistence system (optionnal) In addition to all the caching made, the mission maker can also integrate a data persistence system via MySQL so that, even with a restart of the mission or the machine, the units and vehicles will still be saved. How it works: GCS will create a virtual grid on the map based on three parameters available in GCS_configServer.sqf : GCS_VAR_SIZE_SQUARE_GRID - Represents the total size of each cell on the grid GCS_VAR_SIZE_ACTIVATION_SQUARE_GRID - Represents the trigger distance where AIs and vehicles will be created in the cell GCS_VAR_SIZE_UNSPAWN_SQUARES - Represents the trigger distance where AIs and vehicles will be cached and removed in the cell Each cell is defined by these three variables, as described, GCS_VAR_SIZE_UNSPAWN_SQUARES will trigger the caching and removal of units for the given cell, GCS_VAR_SIZE_ACTIVATION_SQUARE_GRID will activate a cell, retrieve it's cached content for the memory or database and will spawn the units. GCS_VAR_SIZE_SQUARE_GRID Defines the cell size. You can disable the caching system on a unit or vehicle by adding the variable "UseGrid" to false on the unit/vehicle init: this setVariable ["UseGrid", False] In this way, even if no player is near the unit or vehicle, it will never be cached and removed. The following gif shows a simple example with a single grid cell being cached, unloaded (player leaving the cell) and reloaded with cached data once the player re-enter the cell: https://i.imgur.com/ai7PeLh.mp4 and the picture below demonstrates a more complete case: Video example: https://streamable.com/jrh43r (4601 units on Stratis) By default, the persistence system is disabled, you will need to install a MySQL database, have the InterceptDB mod installed aswell with CBA.
