I have a problem with this, do not really understand what the "_OLD".

I can buy and sell gems but when I go to purchase an article by ruby so buy without any inventory.

please help

when you add _old to the database.

the game will then use trade_items_old.sqf or trade_any_vehicle_old.sqf

so what that does, is tells the game to use a different sqf script. and then the game will take the gems or whatever other item you may have out of your inventory to buy it.

if i'm not mistaken, this is because the new version of trade_items or trade_any_vehicle will give change, so if you have a briefcase with 2x10oz and you spend 8 gold. it returns a 10oz + 2oz

whereas the _old version doesn't return change, so it doesnt matter.

this is a screenshot of my db, notice that any items selling for rubies have _old at the end.

and those that sell for regular currency do not.

After playing a3 epoch mod for a bit,

I'm noticing a trend where players are trying to wall off entire military compounds and use that as their bases, effectively keeping all that loot for themselves

in a2 epoch, i use a piece of maca's code to prevent players building within 150m of high loot areas on my servers

/* credits go to Maca134 */
NoBuildNear = [
	"Land_Mil_Barracks_i",
	"Land_A_GeneralStore_01",
	"Land_a_stationhouse",
	"Land_A_Hospital"
];
NoBuildRange = 150;
if ({typeOf _x in NoBuildNear} count nearestObjects[player, NoBuildNear, NoBuildRange] > 0) exitWith {
	DZE_ActionInProgress = false;
	cutText ["You are building too close to a high loot building.","PLAIN DOWN"];
};

a similar piece of code should be added into arma 3 epoch.
I'm not sure if others agree with me, but i think any high loot areas shouldn't be able to be built in.

it just creates a negative experience for the majority of players.

my 2c

thanks.

DZE_MissionLootTable = true;

are you using this in your init.sqf?

#include "insertyourpathto\CfgBuildingLoot.hpp"

and this in your description.ext?

that video is definitely not desync.

I admin several servers, and when players ask me to deliver a starter crate of building supplies to them

more oft than not, they shoot the crap out of me

so I tp with god mode on, I take bullets just like that video,

coincidentally enough I spawn crates for the players, just like the breaking point vid in the comments

We gotta remember here, this is arma, there are a lot of hacks readily available for the game

it would be foolish to think that epoch mod would be an exception to this rule

So far I've been lucky, I have not been killed by a hacker

But I have witnessed a helicopter teleporting around the map on AU01 server. I have no idea who it was, but I saw it

then others saw it and made mention of it in side chat, I decided it was time to log out then

(it doesnt take long for cheaters to get bored of just TP'ing around the map, before they start killing people for fun)

Hi everyone,

this isn't really an urgent request as I can make this script work

I'm just wondering what I've done wrong with my forEach loop

Basically, I use P4L, snap pro and build vectors

And I disallow building in certain areas.

this code here, works perfectly.

	if ((player distance [6710.0474, 2571.0735, 0]) < 500) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build in Cherno!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [10340.616, 2068.4207, 0]) < 500) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build in Elektro!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [12100.296, 9311.5938, 0]) < 500) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build in Berezino!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [4422.5376, 10643.881, 0]) < 500) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build near the NWAF Compound!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [4529.9561, 8276.0459, 0]) < 500) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build near the Dichina Compound!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [11951.005, 12712.544, 0]) < 1000) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build near the Aircraft Trader!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	if ((player distance [5025.2598, 9780.6973, 0]) < 1000) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build near the Aircraft Trader!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };

But I tried to get a little bit fancy and use a foreach loop,

When I use my foreach loop, I get the error message telling me that I cannot build in the area, but I can still place the item.

this is my foreach loop

uCantBuildHere = true;

_cantBuild = [
	[[6710.0474, 2571.0735, 0],500],
	[[10340.616, 2068.4207, 0],500],
	[[12100.296, 9311.5938, 0],500],
	[[4422.5376, 10643.881, 0],500],
	[[4529.9561, 8276.0459, 0],500],
	[[11951.005, 12712.544, 0],1000],
	[[5025.2598, 9780.6973, 0],1000]
];

if (uCantBuildHere) then {
	{
		_cbPos = _x select 0;
		_cbRad = _x select 1; 
		
		if ((player distance _cbPos) < _cbRad) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build in this area!","PLAIN DOWN"]; };
	
	} forEach _cantBuild;
};

As I said, the top code works, so this is not by any means urgent. I'm just curious to know why one piece of code stops me from building, but the other does not.

I have always had this issue,

from 1.0.3 onwards

The solution has always been to lock, unlock, lock and unlock the vehicle again

then it works.

wish I could give you a better answer.

Honestly, my favorite is the Chernarus map.

Despite short, but massive spikes in popularity with my Tavi and Lingor servers

(which always seem to coincide with psi and frankie releasing videos set on those maps)

The players always come back to chernarus.

Tavi may be my personal favourite map (well second fave to Deck 16/17 in UT)

but chernarus just feels like home. always good to come back to.

Those messages in standalone were annoying as all hell

It didn't add to immersion, it was more intrusive than a small icon in the HUD

and made me feel like I was (failing at) looking after a tamagotchi, not trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world.

it looked and felt cheap, rushed and poorly implemented (a succinct analogy for the state of the entire game tbh)

small, toggle on/off hud icons would be the way to go

similar to the implementation of asremixhud, but with a press ins to toggle option.

something like that.

How would I go about making it so Combo locks unlock/disappear after x amount of days. I have indestructible bases and no maintenance on plot poles, so players that stop playing on the server deserve to have there base opened after a certain amount of time.

the sql query mentioned here would not only unlock unused vehicles it would also reset the unused locked doors to 000 after 7 days, just change the 7 to however many days you want.

it wont affect lockboxes or safes

you could re-write it a bit to only include locked doors?,

I'm not the best in the world with SQL, but create this query as an event and it should work

set the combo to 0 on safes and locked doors after 14 days without use

UPDATE `object_data` SET `CharacterID` = 0 WHERE `LastUpdated` < DATE_SUB(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, INTERVAL 14 DAY) AND `Datestamp` < DATE_SUB(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, INTERVAL 14 DAY) AND `CharacterID` > 0 AND `Classname` IN ('CinderWallDoorLocked_DZ','Land_DZE_GarageWoodDoorLocked','CinderWallDoorSmallLocked_DZ','Land_DZE_WoodDoorLocked','Land_DZE_LargeWoodDoorLocked','VaultStorageLocked')

if anyone is more proficient with SQL than I am can see any flaws in this please feel free to correct me.

I updated this section in my server_functions.sqf

changes the sun position, makes it far less glarey.

As for full moon nights, I'm not sure. due to the extended periods of darkness my players voted to make tavi 24/7 day

I didn't realise the trader locations were randomised? they always seem to be in the same spots whenever i've played.

I had just come here to post that I thought there needed to be more even spread across the map, everything seemed to be around the center.

with no traders at all near the west or east coastlines

i'm liking these cultists. generally creepy.

i was stalking some other players in a military outpost, had a mean camp going on. next thing i know some cultist is spitting red shit at me.

i was actually freaked out and ran

doesn't take that much to kill them, about 5-10 upper body/headshots with the zafir.

i think they add quite a bit to gameplay, give me cultists over the arma 2 zed's any day!

I was under the impression that the server files were going to be locked down early so they couldn't be modded

That way if problems arose, the dev team could be certain it was the mod itself, not changes the server hosts had made

I really do hope that us dedicated server owners can host it.

As DeceitfulPhoenix says above, GSPs for arma in aus are few and far between, not to mention generally overpriced and awful for support.

I was wondering about this earlier tonight while playing on AU1 and AU2.

When it gets to beta stage, It would of course be a private hive we would be hosting though, right?

September 14, 2014

was the same in the a2 mod.

using chainsaw or hatchet counted as entering combat, you're using a weapon. so it makes sense that the game would recognise this as being in combat.

the placeholder "swing" item you get is effectively ammunition for your hatchet, the game just sees this as using a gun

i mean there could maybe be some sort of if statement thrown in...

if (player getweapon == itemhatchet_dze) then {

startcombattimer = false;

} else { blah blah blah};

^ obviously not real code, but this is kinda what i mean

i get where you're coming from, but no matter how i look at it, i just see another potential exploit for combat loggers opening up.

September 14, 2014

same thing is happening to me right now,

spawn in jedish3ep was killed by jedish3ep. just drop dead...

change to my other profile, jakehekesfists was killed by jakehekesfists

deleted my profiles from my docs, deleted the local copies of mpmission files stored in appdata folder,

restarted steam, restarted pc.

still same thing. just insta death on spawn

the last thing that happened in my previous life, was i took a boat to a trader, got out of the boat then died, then i logged out straight after that. i wonder if that is somehow the cause of it?

*edit*

waited the full 10 minutes. was ok again.

September 14, 2014

Hi, just a post to say the AU #1 server doesn't seem to have restarted for the last 10 hours or so

All the loot seems to be gone and AI don't appear to be respawning?

Few people complaining about it in there.

Just a heads up if anyone able to restart it is reading these forums

September 14, 2014

was playing a little bit today, and in the early hours of the morning

no problems at all for me.

get about 37ms ping. a couple of yellow chains but nothing bad.

I love this snap building mod of yours,

but the snapping points on the cinder walls really annoyed me,

the only way to make cinder line up correctly was to place a metal floor down and snap to that.

well i got bored last night and started playing with the points,

this pushes them in closer together and seems to work better metal floors and the overall appearance of the structure.

(in my opinion)

changed all values of 2.752 & -2.752 to 2.625 & -2.625 respectively.

code is there for anyone too lazy to use find and replace in notepad++ or sublime

as always, back up your existing files and i take no responsibility if this seemingly minor change murders your family in their sleep.

enjoy

got it mostly working now.

does not seem to be JIP compatible.

SET_FIRE = true;

_fxList = [
  [bigFire0,20,time,false,false],
  [smoke0,3,time,false,false],
  [smoke1,2,time,false,false],
  [smallFire0,6,time,false,false],
  [bigFire1,10,time,false,false],
  [bigFire2,15,time,false,false],
  [bigFire3,20,time,false,false],
  [smallFire1,5,time,false,false],
  [smoke2,2,time,false,false],
  [smoke3,2,time,false,false],
  [smoke4,2,time,false,false],
  [burningChopper0,5,time,false,false],
  [smokingHMMWV0,3,time,false,false]
];

if (isServer) exitWith {
  if (SET_FIRE) then {
    {
        _fireName = _x select 0;
        _fireInte = _x select 1;
        _fireTime = _x select 2;
        _fireToF1 = _x select 3;
        _fireToF2 = _x select 4;

        PVDZE_obj_Fire = [_fireName,_fireInte,_fireTime,_fireToF1,_fireToF2];
        publicVariable "PVDZE_obj_Fire";
    } 
    forEach _fxList;
  };
};

okay, been playing around a bit more.

had a look at the crash spawners, noticed that a different function was being called

scrapped the bis_effects_burn in place of PVDZE_obj_Fire

adding this to the bottom of my map addition sqf works for one flame

PVDZE_obj_Fire = [bigFire0,8,time,false,false];
publicVariable "PVDZE_obj_Fire";

now how would i go about creating an array that it does this for each?

i've tried things like.

_FireList = ["bigFire0","smoke0","smoke1","smallFire0","bigFire1","bigFire2","bigFire3","smallFire1","smoke2","smoke3","smoke4","burningChopper0","smokingHMMWV0"];

{
  PVDZE_obj_Fire = [_x,8,time,false,false];
} forEach _FireList;

but unfortunately it did not work

I have carry weight disabled on my server entirely, but would this work?

AdminList = ["765123123123","765123123123"];

if ((getPlayerUID player) in AdminList) then {
DZE_R3F_WEIGHT = false;
} else {
DZE_R3F_WEIGHT = true;
};

i don't have the answer you seek,

I'm actually looking at changing the humanity gain/loss system also

I just used windows grep on a de-pbo'd dayz_code and searched for humanity

I suspect local_eventKill may be the one we're looking for. But I can't be certain just yet. (ninja edit: nope.. thats to do with zombie kills)

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of making some custom map additions with smoke and fire and destruction

however I'm struggling with BIS_Effects_Burn

Everything works perfectly in the editor.

But as soon as I attempt to implement this on my dev server

No fire or smoke

Basically I've created a whole bunch of game logic across the map and given them all names

I can see that BIS_Effects_Burn is already in compiles.sqf

and this block of text here, I've been trying different places in my init.sqf

but so far, no good.

// c130 crash black forest
[bigFire0,20,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smoke0,3,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
// devils heli crash
[smoke1,2,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smallFire0,6,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
// prig hill fire
[bigFire1,10,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[bigFire2,15,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[bigFire3,20,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smallFire1,5,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smoke2,2,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smoke3,2,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
[smoke4,2,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;
// burning wrecks
[burningChopper0,5,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn; // near prig
[smokingHMMWV0,3,time,false,false] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn; // in cherno

i've tried placing this inside the !isDedicated, the isServer and outside those blocks,

I've tried moving the map addition with all the game logic from server.pbo to mission.pbo

I'm really at a loss here, can anyone please help me with this?
