This idea was taken from Base Building. I wanted to get a working zombie shield to work that I could build without using the whole Base Building GUI. 
 
I got it working fully today very easily but it did require some decent modifications so I thought I would post it for others to use. I personally made it so that others had to build parts to the shield and combine them to make it. This is just a script for you to use as you wish that makes it so that an item (default: CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal) will have scroll options to turn on and off the zombie shield. Configurable in he variables settings. 
 
If you want any help making it work in a different way, just ask. I am happy to help.
 
1. First Download the following: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9b0mwstlfz0g7k0/Zedshield.rar
 
2. Put the shield folder in your mission pbo root folder
 
3. Open your custom fn_selfactions.sqf and find:
if(_player_deleteBuild) then { if (s_player_deleteBuild < 0) then { s_player_deleteBuild = player addAction [format[localize "str_actions_delete",_text], "\z\addons\dayz_code\actions\remove.sqf",_cursorTarget, 1, true, true, "", ""]; }; } else { player removeAction s_player_deleteBuild; s_player_deleteBuild = -1; }; Then past this under it:
_lever = cursorTarget; //Zombie Shield if (_cursorTarget isKindof TypeOfZShield) then { if (EnableZShield == 1) then { if (s_player_ZombieShield_on < 0) then { s_player_ZombieShield_on = player addAction [format[("<t color=""#FFF700"">" + ("Zombie Shield On") +"</t>"),_adminText], "shield\ZombieShield.sqf", [_lever, true], 6, true, true, "", ""]; }; if (s_player_ZombieShield_off < 0) then { s_player_ZombieShield_off = player addAction [format[("<t color=""#FFF700"">" + ("Zombie Shield Off") +"</t>"),_adminText], "shield\ZombieShield.sqf", [_lever, false], 6, false, true, "", ""]; }; } else { if (s_player_ZombieShield_on < 0) then { s_player_ZombieShield_on = player addAction [format[("<t color=""#FFF700"">" + ("Zombie Shields are disabled on this server") +"</t>"),_adminText], "", [], 6, false, true, "", ""]; }; player removeAction s_player_ZombieShield_off; s_player_ZombieShield_off = -1; }; } else { player removeAction s_player_ZombieShield_on; s_player_ZombieShield_on = -1; player removeAction s_player_ZombieShield_off; s_player_ZombieShield_off = -1; }; //End Shield 4. Then find this line in fn_selfactions.sqf
if(DZE_AllowForceSave) then { //Allow player to force save if((_isVehicle or _isTent) and !_isMan) then { if (s_player_forceSave < 0) then { s_player_forceSave = player addAction [format[localize "str_actions_save",_text], "\z\addons\dayz_code\actions\forcesave.sqf",_cursorTarget, 1, true, true, "", ""]; }; } else { ***************Replace STUFF IN HERE }; }; Where I put *******************Replace STUFF IN HERE, delete everything there and add this in its place:
s_player_ZombieShield_on = -1; player removeAction s_player_ZombieShield_off; s_player_ZombieShield_off = -1; player removeAction s_player_forceSave; s_player_forceSave = -1; 5. Open your custom variable.sqf and paste this at the bottom, this is also where you can customize all your settings.
/**************************************************** Zombie Shield Generator Settings ****************************************************/ EnableZShield = 1; //Enable toggleable zombie shield generator/ 1 = Enabled // 0 = Disabled (If disabled, players can still build shield generators, they just wont do anything) TypeOfZShield = "CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal"; //Type of object used for Zombie Shield, included this only in case some maps have this object banned AllZShieldTypes = ["CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal"]; //DO NOT REMOVE ITEMS FROM THIS ARRAY, you can ADD an object class if you want a different building to be used as a Zombie Shield Generator! MaxZShields = 1; //Maximum number of zombie shield generators a player can be added to, default is 1 ZShieldRadius = 50; //Radius for zombie shield generator, default is 50 ZShieldClean = 0; //Delete Zombies when they enter active shield radius/ 1 = Enabled // 0 = Disabled (If disabled, zombies will be killed but not deleted, could lead to zombie loot farming) Close up, repack and done. Then any object CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal or anything you replace it with will then have a scroll option to turn a shield on and off. 
 
I have tested this on my servers and works fine. If you have any complications please let me know and ill be happy to help.
 
Here is a pre compiled Cherno mission PBO with a working zombie shield and the extra_RC.hpp included. You can build it with an Engine and 2 poles like you would any other object

This is more for overpoch than epoch but here is a good example for you. These are my overpoch loot files

Thanks a lot sir!
 
Got it working already, good stuff thanks again.

I have it so that you require an Engine, Wheels and metal panels as well as a gem from my traders to be able to build these items. But I just used the extra_rc.hpp script found here http://epochservers.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=13
 
My apologies, it was about 3am when I decided to post this. 
 
Once you install the script to allow more crafted items, simply open the extra_rc.hpp file and make/edit a class to include the CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal as a craft able item. So for instance if you want to make it so clicking on an Engine would give the option to craft the Zombie Shield, you would need to have this in your extra_rc.hpp
 
    class PartEngine {         class Zshield {             text = "Zombie Shield";             script = "[""CDF_WarfareBUAVterminal"",[""ItemToolbox"",""ItemEtool"],[[""PartEngine"", 1],[""bulk_ItemSandbag"", 1],[""forest_net_kit"", 1]],[0,6.5,2.5]] execVM "" LOCATION OF YOUR PLAYER_BUILD.SQF FILE ""         };     
  };
 
Hope that helps a bit.
