SSAAPS - Sarogahtyps Simple Arena Active Protection System Full Singleplayer and Multiplayer compatible. Arma 3 script which simulates the russian Arena system which is an Active Protection System (APS) for tanks. Basically the russian Arena system lifts an explosive charge upto some meters above the tank. There it explodes and directs a few hundred shrapnels in a cone to the ground. If the countermeasure is successfull then the incoming threat is hit by some shrapnels of the cone. The script spawns some bullets above the tank which create the shrapnel cone. Then the incoming threat gets (hopefully) directed to ground.

Introduction In these war torn lands no one cares for common people. The locals fall victim to unpunished bandits who plunder the peasants without mercy and murder the resisting. Inhabitants of this village became so desperate, they decided rather to die in defence than to endure suffering any longer. Still, they are simple folk, not familiar with combat. Therefore they decided to seek help of the ronins, masterless samurai. Namely those of them hungry enough to work for food, because villagers have no any valuables to offer. They found seven volunteers. These dangerous people were feared in the village, but ready to die in defence of the helpless. Without a payment, not expecting any gratitude, without hesitation... Video Details This scenario is simple, quick-to-play MP mode, where players job is to save village from brutal bandits attack. Although it can be played solo, SP even, it is meant for COOP. This is my very first project of such nature, I never made anything MP-focused before and that's exactly why I wanted to create just once something of that kind. The village is picked each play at random from any proper locations found on the map (Altis, although porting to other maps should be very easy). Randomized is also available gear (the content from owned DLCs and loaded mods should be potentially included) and hostiles. Scenario includes several mission parameters, that allow to customize the tactical and enviromental factors from the lobby. Melee mode requires KA Weapons Pack NEW (melee mode will autodisable if mod not present). It should be considered experimental, fun mode, work best in solo gameplay, there may be glitches for non-server players. Rules: 1. Players start inside the safe zone. As long any player is out of the safe zone, the countdown is going to zero. 2. When the countdown is ended, the safe zone is removed and the attacks will begin soon. 3. Players can arm themselves from the boxes located in the center of the safe zone, at the flagpole. 4. Bandits will attack from random directions in random waves. 5. If too many villagers die - the mission is lost. 6. If all samurai are dead - the mission is lost. 7. If all bandits are dead - the mission is won. 8. Civilians will 'shout' about known hostiles near using 3D exclamation mark icon over their heads. Color of the mark indicates how close the enemy is (green - far, yellow - close, red - very close). 9. Player names change colors depending on player's status: dead - dark red; generating noise/speaking - white; incapacitated - purple-red; no ammo - yellow; critical wounds - reddish; serious wounds - purpleish; moderate wounds - blueish; all OK - blue. 10. There's no respawn, only spectating mode after death, but revival is often possible. Porting: Need to be confirmed yet, but seems, that porting is as easy, as changing map name in mission folder name, so for example: SevenSamurai.Altis -> SevenSamurai.Tanoa. Target map should have some "NameVillage" locations with at least 20 enterable buildings in 150 meters radius around.

Introduction Who in lawless lands will stand up for the weak? Poor mexican village is harassed by brutal banditos. The villagers grow desperate and finally decide to resist. But what chance these poor folk may have against well armed gang of marauders? They weren’t able to buy enough weapons with these very few posessions, they have left. Instead they found seven gunslingers for hire, brave souls ready to defend the poor against the oppression of the wicked. After all – in these lawless lands men are cheaper than guns.

Hello guuuys, I have a question. Especially with the most recent AI overhauls, AI tends to like to move around a lot. This is problematic, especially when making defensive missions where the AI are placed in prepared, covered positions. Instead of remaining in them and using the meticulously planned ambush position to best effect, they instead leave the position and start racing around (and are shot up much more quickly as a result). Waypoint type does not seem to matter, they leave the position once they spot an enemy no matter what. The type of vehicle also does not matter. Independent cover selection by the AI is extremely bad for vehicles in defense, so I am looking for a workaround for this. Any Ideas? I have thought about using disableAI, but that is something I'd rather not use because once taking hits, I want the AI to move. As waypoints don't seem to work, and I do not know how to script, I am out of Ideas myself. Any help is appreciated. Cheers Instagoat
