[Release] Vehicle Patrol V.2

[Ivory]

Heyho :)

I have reright the from BetterDeadThanZed (Thanks for the idea), becouse it don´t work realy good at the new Patch.

So i think it works better as the old one.

 

1.How to install

2. How to upgrade

 

 

How to install:

 

Step 1: Open DZMSConfig.sqf and find this:

 

//Large Vehicles (Urals)
DZMSLargeVic = ["Ural_TK_CIV_EP1"];

Underneath that, put this:

//Patrol Vehicles
DZMSPatrolVeh = ["HMMWV_M998A2_SOV_DES_EP1_DZE","LandRover_Special_CZ_EP1","Offroad_DSHKM_Gue_DZE"];

 

Step 2: Open DZMSFunctions.sqf and find this:

 

 

DZMSAISpawn = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\DZMS\Scripts\DZMSAISpawn.sqf";

Below that, add this:

 

DZMSVehiclePatrol = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\DZMS\Scripts\DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf";

Further down, find this:

 

 

case "large": {_vehArray = DZMSLargeVic;};

Replace it with this:

case "large": {_vehArray = DZMSLargeVic;};
case "patrol": {_vehArray = DZMSPatrolVeh;};

Now download this https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9zax4qa0wuzlya/DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf

 

add the file too your DZMS/scripts folder.

 

 

 

Now you can Spawn the Patrol

 

open your mission files

 

and search for the code like this:

//DZMSAISpawn spawns AI to the mission.
//Usage: [_coords, count, skillLevel, unitArray]
[[(_coords select 0) + 0.2803,(_coords select 1) + 25.1768, 0],5,3,"DZMSUnitsGeneral"] call DZMSAISpawn;
sleep 5;

at this previously:

//Spawn patrol
//Position, Skill
//Usage: [_coords, PatrolRadius ,  skillLevel]
[_coords, 50, 3] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

2.How to upgrade

 

 

download this https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9zax4qa0wuzlya/DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf

 

replace the file whit the exist in your DZMS/scripts folder.

 

 

open your mission where you have add the old script.

 

in the private array you have "_patrol"

 

remove it.

 

search for the spawn code

//Spawn patrol
_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;
[_coords,   //Position to patrol
_coords, // Position to spawn
75, //Radius of patrol
10,                     //Number of waypoints to give
_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)
1 //Skill level of units 
] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

and change it whit

//Spawn patrol
//Position, Skill
//Usage: [_coords, PatrolRadius ,  skillLevel]
[_coords, 50, 3] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

You need to also replace in the vehiclepatrol.sqf

 

//Gear the AI backpack
_aipack = [_skill] call DZMSGetPack;

 

With:

 

//Gear the AI backpack
_aipack = DZMSPacklist call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;

 

As its causing an issue, at least this is what I'm about to try as the AI didn't get into the vehicle and comparing the vehicle patrol to the aispawn this is what is different.

 

Will let you know if it works.

[ToejaM]

Yeah that works :)

[Ivory]

ups sorry xD

i have change some more stuff like backpack and skin for the skin level xD

i change it in the file

[Thay-skill3d]

is the patrol-despawn working when mission dissapears?  (Funktionierte bei der letzten Version nicht - genauso wie bei der Bandit-Base von WAI)

[BetterDeadThanZed]

Credit where credit is due, right? 

[TheJamesp55]

I'm lost at

 

Now you can Spawn the Patrol

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

open your mission files

 

and search for the code like this:

 

(then the code n shiz)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Says " open your mission files " ....well ?? whats the script I need to open? just the folder? hmmm not working ..I wonder why

[Ivory]

your mission files are in the Missions folder. there you have a Major and a Minor folder. in the two folder are the missionscripts

[Tang0]

in mission file , i have added the patrol so it looks like this just before the mission Ai or spawned in

 

//Spawn patrol
//Position, Skill
//Usage: [_coords, PatrolRadius ,  skillLevel]
[_coords, 75, 3] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

//DZMSAISpawn spawns AI to the mission.
//Usage: [_coords, count, skillLevel, unitArray]
[_coords,6,2,"DZMSUnitsMajor"] call DZMSAISpawn;
sleep 5;
[_coords,6,3,"DZMSUnitsMajor"] call DZMSAISpawn;
sleep 5;
[_coords,4,3,"DZMSUnitsMajor"] call DZMSAISpawn;
sleep 5;
 

[chipsandcheese]

Thanks. Can this work for heli patrols?

[Ivory]

hmm, good question xD

i can´t test it at this time... i don´t have a server at the moment sorry

[Chunk. No Captain Chunk.]

Yeah, the AI vehicles don't seem to shoot at people :/

[Tang0]

make sure the vehicles or the DZ type as DZE have no ammo, this is my vehicle list in DZMSconfig

 

DZMSPatrolVeh = ["ArmoredSUV_PMC_DZ","HMMWV_M998A2_SOV_DES_EP1_DZ","LandRover_Special_CZ_EP1_DZ","Offroad_DSHKM_Gue_DZ","Pickup_PK_GUE_DZ","HMMWV_M1151_M2_CZ_DES_EP1_DZ","GAZ_Vodnik_DZ"];

EDIT:

 

just re - read the posts above and saw this one which seems to have fixed the issue:

i install this nice script, 

 

but after install no AI´s at the mission and no patrol AI´s :( no error in rpt

[Ped]

Does anyone have an idea on how to use _DZE vehicles but load them with ammo so they will fire their weapons?

[Tang0]

use the _DZ vehicles instead as these spawn already loaded

[igoooor]

Could you explain the choice of lowering the skill level?

_weaponArray = [_skill - 1] call DZMSGetWeapon;

switch (_skill) do {
		case 0: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills0;};
		case 1: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills0;};
		case 2: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills1;};
		case 3: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills2;};
		case 4: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills3;};
		case 5: {_aicskill = DZMSSkills4;};
	};

how do the patrol vehicles delete once the mission is over?
