So, Stuff I"m working on for the next update includes:
Full support for static AI which can be spawned on land with spawning triggered by player proximity and an optional respawn time.
Surface marine patrols.
AI divers and SDV patrols.
Random selection of spawn locations along the coast.
Release date slated for early 2018.
We will be running beta's for some of these features on our server.
Contact me if you are interested in testing.

I decided to collaborate a couple of different statusbars.
All credits goes to: Creampie -  Osef - All The Others!
 
Screenshot
 
Download: Github
Installation: Drag the map status_bar into your mission.pbo.
Init.sqf: add the lines in your existing init.sqf file, or drag init.sqf into your mission.pbo:
// Status Bar [] execVM "status_bar\fn_statusBar.sqf"; Description.ext: open up your existing description.ext and add the lines on the bottom:
class RscTitles { #include "status_bar\dialog\statusBar.hpp" };  
BE Problems? Post your kicks.
 
It is possible to add additional status information, for example: Energy status display,
But keep in mind the background space is limited, Note: Toxicity will expand to 4/5 extra digits.
 
Did i forget any other Author? please send me a message i will update the post asap.

@lesvieuxcrevards
from  memory there where issues with player loading time and i was lazy and add them to the mission.sqm as a quick work around and it worked well.
here is the last version i used when i had my little alits server
a3_epoch_custom.pbo
depbo and go through all files in the a3_epoch_custom\mapcontent and check a3_epoch_custom\init\fn_init.sqf
here is the last mission file used (some good shit in there btw)
epoch.Altis.pbo
depbo and go through it, enjoy
 
also a much older version (outdated) here  https://github.com/natoed
BTW I dont have any of the editor mission.sqm i crated any more as arma  deleted the when i changed my player name
Need a hand sing out, i hope i remember it all....
 
cheers

Hi there,

If referring to the database expiration times.
These can be edited to your liking and are in seconds.
Increase these numbers to keep the db entries longer than default times
Decrease these numbers to have the db remove entries quicker than default times
I do not believe there is a limit to how high you can make these numbers
These entries are necessary for the system to function properly and stay optimized over long periods of time.

epochconfig.hpp

Here is the ExpiresBuilding entry I feel you are asking about in reference to "decay"
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/blob/release/Server_Install_Pack/%40epochhive/epochconfig.hpp#L81
 
EPOCH_server_loadBuildings.sqf

Here is the function loading the config entry (_maxTTL)
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/blob/release/Sources/epoch_server/compile/epoch_bases/EPOCH_server_loadBuildings.sqf#L18
Here is the damage given to buildings based on that number. (_ttl / _maxTTL)
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/blob/release/Sources/epoch_server/compile/epoch_bases/EPOCH_server_loadBuildings.sqf#L70

 
Where _ttl(Total Time from Database) is divided by _maxTTL(Max Total Time from config) and it results in the _damage applied(if any) at server start
Hope this helps you come to the conclusion you need or the direction to make the necessary changes to your liking.

Thank you i will check and setup these update on my server.

I added a few other things to ours:
I have a global variable that is set to true upon the keypress that activates autorun. That variable is set to false for certain keypresses  [w,a,d,s] or when the surface is water. 
I added a custom keypress handler that checks for '8' which activates autorun or inactivates it, and movement keys which disable it.
I added a check to onEachFrame for the state of the global variable and when that is true there is a call to a small function that executes the autorun animation and also checks to see if the the player is on/in water.  If so, the global variable is set to false. By tying this to onEachFrame there is no need for an extra loop.
I hope that this helps.

I put something together that should be plug and play, or pretty much so.

Grahame was kind enough to share some info on how to change the Ghost Hawk for the Epoch Airdrop to a different air vehicle (In this case a C130). So I thought it would be nice to share the info.
All that needs to be done is change the class names for the aircraft & pilot. Also, in this example the "side" is changed to west if you don't want the aircraft to act hostile.
Changing the pilot and "side" is optional.
The changes need to be made in the epoch_server\compile\epoch_missions\EPOCH_Server_create_AirDrop.sqf
Here is the example (provided by Grahame):

Thank you Grahame.

Thx for this!
 
Heres how i made it @lesvieuxcrevards
 
 

https://forums.bistudio.com/forums/topic/205916-release-auto-run-script/
you could have a play with this maybe :) @lesvieuxcrevards

okay my bad.
here is the situation, from day one, I intended to make this script GNU GPL Free Software meaning anyone can see/modify/redistribute the source code.
however, in the early days, I did not license it under GPL, instead distributed in obfuscated and minimized form until I clean up the code.
now the code is cleaned up, licensed under GPL, source code made available, including all in line comments.
the problem you are experiencing is because you downloaded an ancient (obfuscated) copy with crazy file names.
the solution is downloading the latest (unobfuscated) version.
I will update this post in a few minutes, will give you the correct latest download link and will also update the README. sorry for the trouble!

EDIT:
I will try to get version 0.5.0 out this weekend but until then here is the latest available version: https://gitlab.com/themgm/Transport_for_Arma/tree/stable/release_packages/0.4.8-hotfix1
This was a rushed release, let me know if you experience any issues?

At the moment you can't.
In 0.6 you will be able to in CfgServicePoint.hpp

If it isn't there by default you should be able to add it just about anywhere.
On my server it is directly below "vonCodecQuality";
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/blob/release/Server_Install_Pack/sc/server-example.cfg#L43

You should be able to just add -autoInit to your server launch parameters. This will make the server read the mission once it starts up.

try in @epochhive and open epochconfig.hpp and check this out:
StaticDateTime[] = {0,0,0,8,0}; // {0,0,0,8,0} would forces the server to start at 8am each time it is started while allowing the year, month and day to stay real time. Any values left at 0 will result in no change.

I need to revisit this code as it is sort of kludgy and I got lazy when I tried to get it to work. I need to attach a grenade to a random wheel and rework the logic for the settings. For now, if you want to disable the IEDs entirely try the following:
    blck_RunGear = false;  
    blck_RunGearDamage = 0;
    blck_VK_Gear = false;
    blck_VK_RunoverDamage = false;
    blck_VK_GunnerDamage = false;
    blck_forbidenVehicles = []; 
    blck_forbidenVehicleGuns = [];
   

In blck_configs set blck_RunGear = false;
Set false to not use IEDs. Otherwise change blck_RunGearDamage = 0.4; to reduce or increase given damage

It's located in the server.cfg
forceRotorLibSimulation = 0; // Forces flight model. Default 0 (user config setting), 1 - forced AFM, 2 - forced SFM
If yours is 0 then the user can decide what they want to use in their settings. If 1 or 2 they are forced to use the server setting.
AFM = Advanced Flight Model
SFM = Simple Flight Model

It's still not working fine with Epoch AH. Players will get teleported back in the air without parachute (admins will not). It's a milestone for 0.6.
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/issues/648

You can use that script and change spawn_settings.sqf.
_HALV_forcespawnMode = 1; would force Halo only.
_halv_spawn_startmode = 1; forces view to start on map screen.
_halv_allowgearselect = false; disables gear selection.
You can then customize the locations allowed to spawn on the map.
I doubt you will find a script that only does Halo respawn itself.

Can confirm, it works very well on my little server a3 1.70 and epoch 0.5
Visual tag, No Just a systemchat message local to the player to inform them.
NOTE: edited heavily from the original posted scripts
I did try adding EPOCH_playerTemp to increase EPOCH_playerBloodP but it didn't end well....lol
my settings are harsh
here's what I use,
DP_Real_Health.sqf

It's already changed in experimental version
