Helion4

@natoed Thanks for bringing this back to my attention, I had forgotten about it.
 
I spent my morning doing this..
 

I believe you have to deploy the Helipad via right click deploy anything.
So this says you need a toolbox and a ruby to be able to deploy a Helipad.

And here is a better solution, now using the dynaMenu and checking that the vehicle is unlocked and you were the last driver (thus dealing with the issue of object locality). All changes are in the mission file.
Add the following to epoch_config/Configs/CfgActionMenu/CfgActionMenu_target.hpp:
// Flip Vehicle class flip_vic { condition = "dyna_isVehicle && !dyna_locked"; action = "[dyna_cursorTarget] call FlipVic;"; icon = "x\addons\a3_epoch_code\Data\UI\buttons\build_upgrade.paa"; tooltip = "Flip Vehicle"; }; Add a script in the folder where you store your custom ones, for example custom/, called FlipVehicle.sqf with the following contents:
private ["_target"]; _target = _this select 0; if (local _target) then { _target setVectorUp [0, 0, 1]; ["Flipped vehicle",5] call epoch_message; } else { ["You were not the driver of this vehicle",5] call epoch_message; }; Add the following lines into your mission's init.sqf replacing the script's folder with where ever you put yours:
if(hasInterface) then{ FlipVic = compileFinal preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\FlipVehicle.sqf"; }; RePBO the mission, upload to the server...

back on track i forgot i made a logger which records item  placement lol 
looks like this
_visitor3_log_obj = ("_tipe_road = ["obj-city_0_2000"]; *  _pos = ["8610.5, 8.9 ,6756.8"];  * _dir = ["1.354"];"); && (placed  -t 02:30 -d 03.29.2018);
 

First test of infected spawns via the standard ARMA3 Epoch lootbubble. Infected spawn out of LOS and right now just a hard coded one per building.   No DayZ code was used in this new feature.   As always, apologies for the video quality, my PC is a potato...    

Heli is out of fuel after some time so I added this code to file fnc_vehicle_patrol.sqf and now heli is flying all day long :-)
Put code below anywhere between:   while{_run}do{   and last bracket:   };

//    Refuell code START
    if (fuel _unit <= 0.2) then
    {
        _unit setFuel 1;
        diag_log "***[Sector] Vehicle refuelled sucessfully***";
    };
//    Refuell code END
 
 

When you hover with a mouse on a player and its the name is barely visible if at all, since the colours change (fade) if a player is damaged. So the more player is damaged the harder it is to see his name when getting closer and hovered with a mouse. I think it should be addressed to Epoch developers though since this problem was since the beginning. I think the colour should stay fixed and as bright enough to be able to distinguish the player's name. The damage could be indicated by the circle surrounding player's name, there is no need to change the colours. Because in Arma 3 daylight it becomes invisible.
 

So there are a couple of serious glitches that are possible with the use of the Enhanced Interaction functionality within the Enhanced Movement mod on Epoch servers. Not going to list them here but they are incredibly serious and need to be fixed if you are running EM on your Epoch server. Thankfully, there is a quite easy solution to "turn off" Enhanced Interaction within the mission file. If you are already using the initPlayerLocal.sqf file for things like the autolockpicker, attaching demo charges to things and other stuff, then just add the following to it:
[] spawn { while {true} do { if !((profilenamespace getvariable ["babe_int_keys_Use",[0,""]]) isequalto [0,""]) then { profilenamespace setvariable ["babe_int_keys_Use",[0,""]]; }; uisleep 1; }; }; If you are not already using the file, but are using EM then create an initPlayerLocal.sqf with the following:
if (!isDedicated and hasInterface) then { waitUntil {alive vehicle player}; waitUntil {typeOF player != "VirtualMan_EPOCH"}; uisleep 15; [] spawn { while {true} do { if !((profilenamespace getvariable ["babe_int_keys_Use",[0,""]]) isequalto [0,""]) then { profilenamespace setvariable ["babe_int_keys_Use",[0,""]]; }; uisleep 1; }; }; }; Repack the mission PBO, upload to your server and the possible glitches are dealt with, while still allowing the lovely niceness of Enhanced Movement to continue.
Thanks very much to @He-Manfor invaluable help in crafting the solution and thanks to Duralius, a player on my server for finding the glitches and not exploiting them. Good man!

I have reduced the max loads for the Epoch variants, because the default A3 max loads make no sense.
If you compare the max loads between the different vehicle Classes, you know why...
 
Here some max load examples from the default A3 settings:
- Truck (normal and Box) : 3000
- Hemtt Box: 3000
- Strider: 4000
 
To make it more realistic and support better the Vehicle-Upgrade system, I have completely reworked the max loads.
But of course, you can also take the Arma-Variants to get back the default settings.
A full list of the Vehicle Properties you can find here (Excel):
https://github.com/EpochModTeam/EpochCore/raw/release/EPOCH_VehicleProperties.xlsx

If I understand you correctly you need to change the (round(300 into (round(240   because 60x5 = 300   and 60x4=240  
 
So:
Current line: _time = (round(300-(serverTime)/60));   Gives you a 5 hour countdown   (60 x 5)
Current line: _time = (round(240-(serverTime)/60));  Gives you a 4 hour countdown   (60 x 4)
Current line: _time = (round(180-(serverTime)/60));  Gives you a 3 hour countdown   (60 x 3)
Once changed, the timer should run out after 4 hours.

thanks dude... my little air field coming on nice now 

 

@killerkiwiNice to see a set-back like data loss not putting you down. 
@Cubitron Ouch, 140 hours? A double disk failure really is a kick in the proverbial's

Error
 
 

In your side, you have missed nothing. 
This is a bug in the current release.

dam i was hoping for some good midget porn lol

Hey,
Oxygen 2 has been replaced by Object Builder as explained here : https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Oxygen_2
If you are planning to build everything from the ground up (alone?)  then I would be surprised if this project is finished in under 12 months.  The map I cannot comment on the time needed to create one from scratch, but I do know that you have to be committed to it 100%.
As for creating models from scratch, dont use any Bohemia tools to create the meshes, instead use 3dsMax or Blender (for Blender you will need the addon for Arma) , then you can export your models to Object Builder for the final set up. This way is much much quicker than using BiS's tools to create meshes.
Good Luck, I hope to see some nice progress in the future!

ok i'm just done rendering map look really good flat spots for towns and mini city's...   i will make the map first release it then i will do the items and Object ect

I got certain configs updated in the EpochCore client files allowing a few extra nice features to be deployed in A3/Epoch, and I'll start off by posting the information to set up portable generators to allow fuel pumps to be used for refueling vehicles if auto-refueling is turned off on your server. 
Installation Instructions
(1) Add the portable generator "kit" to your loot tables and trader price lists. The class name is KitGenerator
(2) Add the files in this downloadable archive to a folder in your mission called, for example, sounds:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/75gq2rezy1tcbe2/generator_sounds.zip?dl=0
The license file is required! It is a Creative Commons Attribution Only license for the sound file.
(3) Add the following lines to your mission file's custom description.ext (replacing the path for the generator1.ogg sound with the location in which you put it):
// Portable Generator Sounds class CfgSFX { class Generator { sounds[] = {"Generator"}; name = "Generator"; Generator[] = {"sounds\generator1.ogg","db+10",1,200,1,0,0,0}; Empty[] = {"",0,0,0,0,0,0,0}; }; }; class CfgVehicles // NOTE: CfgVehicles definitions are only permitted in description.ext for sound sources. It cannot be used for CfgVehicles customizations { class PortableGenerator { sound = "Generator"; }; }; (4) Create a file in the folder of your mission file where you store your own scripts, e.g. custom called PortableGenerator.sqf and paste the following code into it:
(5) Add the following lines to your mission's init.sqf (replacing the path with whatever you used in step (4)):
if(hasInterface) then{ PortableGenerator = compileFinal preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\PortableGenerator.sqf"; }; (6) Add the following to epoch_config/Configs/CfgItemInteractions.hpp:
class KitGenerator : Item_Build_base { buildClass = "Generator_EPOCH"; }; (7) Add the following to epoch_config/Configs/CfgBaseBuilding.hpp:
class Generator_EPOCH : Default { removeParts[] = {{"KitGenerator",1}}; GhostPreview = "Generator_Ghost_EPOCH"; staticClass = "Generator_EPOCH"; simulClass = "Generator_SIM_EPOCH"; limitNearby = 2; bypassJammer = 1; }; class Generator_SIM_EPOCH : Generator_EPOCH { removeParts[] = {}; }; class Generator_Ghost_EPOCH : Generator_SIM_EPOCH {}; (8) Add the following code to epoch_config/Configs/CfgActionMenu/cfgActionMenu_target.hpp:
// Portable Generators class generator_refill { condition = "((dyna_cursorTarget isKindOf 'Generator_EPOCH') && !(dyna_cursorTarget getVariable [""GeneratorFueled"",false]) && !(dyna_cursorTarget getVariable [""GeneratorRunning"",false]))"; action = "[dyna_cursorTarget, 2] call PortableGenerator;"; icon = "x\addons\a3_epoch_code\Data\UI\buttons\vehicle_refuel.paa"; tooltip = "Refuel generator"; }; class generator_start { condition = "((dyna_cursorTarget isKindOf 'Generator_EPOCH') && (dyna_cursorTarget getVariable [""GeneratorFueled"",false]) && !(dyna_cursorTarget getVariable [""GeneratorRunning"",false]))"; action = "[dyna_cursorTarget, 1] call PortableGenerator;"; icon = "x\addons\a3_epoch_code\Data\UI\buttons\Replace_Engine.paa"; tooltip = "Start generator"; }; class generator_stop { condition = "((dyna_cursorTarget isKindOf 'Generator_EPOCH') && (dyna_cursorTarget getVariable [""GeneratorRunning"",false]))"; action = "[dyna_cursorTarget, 0] call PortableGenerator;"; icon = "x\addons\a3_epoch_code\Data\UI\buttons\Remove_Engine.paa"; tooltip = "Stop generator"; }; RePBO your mission file and upload it to the server. That should be it.

A few days ago I started to write a script together with my friend PirateLaserBeam to remote gates from vehicles in Epoch.
I was getting great support from the community and He-Man finished that script in a impressing way.
