ZKB's PVP Modes is a single mission file that contains multiple PVP gamemodes, perks, score streaks, with persistent stats. This has been an on and off project for the last several years with seemingly endless tweaking and refining of features to make them the best they can be. At the moment there are 2 maps made in the VR world (I like to make things hard for my self) and they can be found within a Steam Workshop Collection or on my Steam Workshop. All mission files work both local host so you can quickly play with friends as well on a dedicated server. There is also a server side addon available here where you can create custom loadouts that players can use and combined with mission parameters you can restrict it to only those loadouts or a combination of premade and player custom. If you have any questions or looking for more information on recommended settings for your server feel free to join my discord server where you can find such information and possibly others to play with. https://discord.gg/aGNSztac8k I also have a dedicated server running only the PVP missions and you are able to vote your self admin and change between the maps and mess around with different parameters.

The gas station side is a "small" NATO outpost, from it you can see a push towards the church side occupied by enemy guerillas who are putting up a fight all the while IDAP is trying to move around into a courtyard and setup an aid station. https://imgur.com/a/y2fGlQB https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3270028283 VR Suburb A medium sized area with a main road that goes past a gas station, garages, and a couple shops. Off the main road you will find a long row of houses with their yards filled with life. Across the road from the garages next to the houses you will find a square where IDAP has set up a decontamination zone. Expect long sightlines along with fighting between the houses. https://imgur.com/a/6Vce2KP https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3270596264 Ghost Hotel The Ghost Hotel area on Altis with some cover and obstacles placed around the area... not much more to it. https://imgur.com/a/l4IsALQ https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3272429925 Feature Highlights ( https://imgur.com/a/zPll9Y3 ) Mission Parameters Gamemode voting Bots XP and Leveling Custom Loadouts Minimap Hitmarkers Auto mag repack every reload Killcam Settings Keybinds Hitmarkers sound, color, icon Personal preferences Persistent Stats (General and Per gamemode also bot specific stats) Playtime, Kills, Deaths, Assists, Headshots, Score, Wins, Loses, Ties, Objectives Weapons stats (kills, headshots, Shots fired, Hits) layers history (See what they killed you with and you killed them with) Score streak uses and kills Profile Import/Export (Share your stats to friends or back them up) Challenges (Daily and Weekly) Unlocks in addition to weapon kills unlocks (Unlock things for completing challenges) Arma 3 units support (If everyone on a team has the same Arma 3 unit selected then the team name and icon will be the units) Gamemodes Deathmatch The classic free for all mode where the first player to reach the required amount of kills wins. Hotspot A free for all mode where there is a single point that changes positions and needs to be held to gain points. Think of it as King of the Hill. First player to reach the required amount of points wins. Flag Control A free for all mode where a flag spawns randomly on the map and you must get close to pick it up. Once picked up hold on to it to score points. If you die you will drop the flag for others to pick up and after 15 seconds will get reset to a random position. Arcade A free for all Deathmatch mode where you spawn with a basic weapon and no pre-selected Score Streaks. Find other weapons and Score Streaks around the map as pickups. Respawning will remove any unused Score Streak. Team Deathmatch Like Deathmatch but with teams, the first team to reach the required amount of kills wins. Team Hotspot Like Hotspot but with teams, a single point that changes positions and needs to be held to gain points. First team to reach the required amount of points wins. Team Flag Control Like the free for all version but with teams where a flag spawns randomly on the map and you must get close to pick it up. Once picked up hold on to it to score points. If you die you will drop the flag for others to pick up and after 15 seconds will get reset to a random position. Kill Confirmed A team mode where killing a player does not immediately reward your team with a point. Instead, when killing a player it will drop a sphere to be collected, collect green spheres to "Confirm Kill" and gain a point for your team, collect a red sphere to "Deny Kill" and prevent the enemy team from gaining a point. Domination A team mode where each team must capture several areas on the map while at the same time prevent the enemy team from capturing the areas. The more areas your team holds the more points your team gains, first team to reach the required amount of points wins. Perks Score Streaks

I'm Brazilian and I'm using Google Translate, I ask for understanding if it's not clear! I face a problem in missions [SP] I will try to explain in detail: I really like creating missions [SP] using the NR6 HAL mod with the RHSSAF and RHSUSAF factions, my Arma 3 runs with CBA3 and ACE3 everything is fine, the problem is that at a certain point in the mission the AI simply does not detect the enemy AI even my player and the AI pass in front of each other and do not enter into battle. I've been having this problem for a long time and I stopped playing the game for this reason and I would be very grateful if anyone has a solution or tip! Another detail I don't use mods to improve AI.

Hello everyone! I haven't been active for a very long time. Now I am back and I need your help. I have downloaded a ready MP/Coop Mission - Rush Redux on Tanoa by OPTiX. Since we are a small community on a private server, I need to make this mission better playable and it needs to be agains AI soldiers, so my friends and I can fight them and still finsih the main mission by completing the objectives. This is possible by destroying the MCOM's when playing on the OPFOR side because if you spawn as a BLUFOR player, the enemies will simply show up, fire upon you and your squad mates and not attack the objective. So the gameplay would be pretty boring. That's why I am going to remove the BLUFOR playable units. I have tried using THIS example with the script in the description, including my own config lines of the enemy soldiers, but it didn't work, showing me that ")" was missing on a line in the main script: { if (_Spawntarget distance _x˃_Deletedistance) then {deleteVehicle _x;}; } forEach units _EditGroup; } foreach (allGroups select {side _x == _Spawnside && (_x getVariable ["spawned",true])}); And because it didn't work I tried with A.E.S (Ambient Enemy Spawner), but the enemy soldiers spawn around me very rare and too late, and it's always laggy as hell. I have tried different options in the main module, but I wasn't satisfied with the results. Other than that, I would like to use a simple script, may be like the first one above, in order to place down custom AI units, not only Vanilla, so I can put enemies from any mod I would like to use, and I need to make a stable version without any lagg while playing. What would you recommend me to do? May be put some units around the map and automatically spawn them on me when I start playing, but the thing is that the player always starts on a different random location and can spawn in the HQ or in a vehicle. If I want to use custom enemy units I guess I will have to use a config line to get them working. Please, give me some advices, scripts or suggestions how to accomplish this task. I want the enemies to hunt down the players. Thank you in advance!

Hi all I am trying to make a pvp scenario in which opfor will need to take civilian AI Hostage during the mission, and part of blufors mission will be to free those hostages. I am very confused as to how to make this work as I have no experience with scripting. Any help is appreciated, Thanks

SLS Modpack We have a brand new server currently open to the public! On a normal day we run the KPliberation mode, but we often make events for anyone to attend! These events can range from a milsim type operation to something a little more fun like a STALKER theme. (Definitely planned and in the works now by me.) If you wish to attend these events, simply join our discord server and we will soon have an event signup channel. Currently we only have Altis, but don't fret, we are working CUP maps into our rotation! This will take time and we will slowly be rolling them in one at a time as we are only two people. We use ACRE2 so please connect to our teamspeak server upon joining, the server rules are posted on the discord, so please give those a read! We don't mind if you join just to read those and leave afterwards. Teamspeak: 172.93.102.138:9002

We'd like to try using this thread to track clear updates about changes to the AI. But first, some all important disclaimers! Not all the changes made to the AI can be logged as and when they happen Sometimes the changes made by the programmers require other departments to update or pack their data Sometimes that's not always possible right away (i.e. changes to AI Costmaps for terrain, tweaking of new/refined values in configs) Sometimes the changes must be put on hold while we make sure/prevent them from entirely annihilating the rest of the game Sometimes the changes must be reverted because they destroy more than they heal. Sometimes our programmers have to work, rather than talk about working. We hope it helps shine some light on the ongoing refinements/fixes being made to the AI, and can help to frame/promote some useful feedback/discussion/understanding about the current state/future direction and progress. You can discuss the changes across in the AI Dev Branch Discussion thread. Best, RiE First set of notes follows: It wasn't supposed to fix rotation speed of AI soldiers, but is letting them use "aiming deadzone" as specified in the unit config (minGunTurnAI, maxGunTurnAI) which is typically 60 degrees cone. Therefore currently AI should be able to follow targets better without moving whole body. RPG and NLAW are supposed to be unguided, but AI was still able to use them as guided weapons. This was corrected. Quite big change, now AI is able to calculate and predict accurate ballistic of bullet, therefore is able to aim and engage targets on all ranges, both static and moving. Also, this improves AI ability to hit moving targets by more precise time of leading calculation. Good way to check this change is try to fight AI sniper on 1km+ range. Of course it still depends on his skill. AI was considering animals as friendly, therefore denied to shot in theirs direction. Example: put yours character, enemy soldier and snake animal between you. After this fix AI won't bother with friendly fire against animals. N.b. Sometimes I'll quote one one of our Programmer's comments, but reserve the right to make splendid editorial adjustments! :cool:

Hi, I have just started campaign mode and reached to the point where I am supposed to take the lead of small suad. The issue is that the default AI in the campaign mode are very, very bad: they do not listen to orders, they do completely oposite to what I tell them to do, they freeze, get stuck at repeating some words all the time, they won't advance, they won't fire a launcher even if I put a soldier right ahead of an enemy vehicle, it will just stay and star and wait to get killed ,in fact they are an absolute bullshit. I have no fun in this game because of this. Is there a way to replace those AI with a mod in the campaign mode?

hello! i have a situation where i need to create a respawn marker, make all players and A.I. respawn, then delete the marker, so no more respawn are allowed. it works on players, but A.I. bots (all playable units) keep respawning also without a marker!! please help me stop this madness !! thanks !

I was making a mission where a base in under attack and a group of about 20 men (all in hunters) are on there way to reinforse it. The enemies come in via air trasnport and when the ai see them they all stop and dismount. I tired making the AI careless but when I do that they just get out of the hunters at the start and barly even move. I have tried locking the hunters and that does not work either. Please help!
