Zombie loot

SN1P3R · July 21, 2014

If i want to change the loot that spawns on zombies do i edit the CfgLootSmall.hpp or cfgLoot.hpp file?

cen · July 21, 2014

CfgLoot.hpp has the zombie classes:

	policeman[] = {
		{"ItemBandage",0.3}
		,{"7Rnd_45ACP_1911",0.08}
		,{"6Rnd_45ACP",0.08}
		,{"15Rnd_W1866_Slug",0.14}
		,{"8Rnd_B_Beneli_Pellets",0.16}
		,{"HandRoadFlare",0.07}
		,{"8Rnd_9x18_MakarovSD",0.01}
		,{"ItemComboLock",0.05}
		,{"SmokeShell",0.04}
		,{"FoodMRE",0.04}
		,{"ItemHotwireKit",0.03}
		,{"ItemDocument",0.02}
	};

Yeh but so does the CfgLootSmall - do i need to edit both?

SN1P3R · July 21, 2014

using 1.0.5.1 and overpoch - Loot is spawning fine in building. But on the zombies barely any loot drops and when it does its not using the overpoch loot. Ive been thru the cfgloot.hpp file and everything is fine. Anyone able to help me get loot spawning properly on the zombies. Much appreciated. Event went to the extent of hashing out all the object that is meant to drop on zombies and leaving 1 object with a high rate of spawn and that still doesnt work.

pretty sure zombies are screwed up in 1051

SN1P3R · July 22, 2014

Ok so now i have got zombies spawning loot did a tes and 23 kills with 20 dropping loot, just it is not dropping any of the overpoch loot.

yeah i have the same problem with the mission cfg loot files. even took the files from there github, and im still getting errors on zombie loot

hambeast · July 22, 2014

Just replied to a PM about this. You need to do the following to make epoch use the new mission files:

change:

} count getArray (configFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));

to:

} count getArray (missionConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));

edit: just want to say there's probably a bug in the default loot tables regarding zombies... Changing it over to my mission file defined loot tables seems to clear it up. Also added a check to make sure that it logs issues if they are thrown.

Here's my whole zombie_generate.sqf

Hmm, i use the same mission file for two servere one overpoch and one vanialla epoch, kan i make this more dynamic ?

if (DZE_MissionLootTable) then {
   {
   _array set [count _array, _x select 0]
   } count getArray (missionConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));
} else {
   {
   _array set [count _array, _x select 0]
   } count getArray (configFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));
};

??

you should be able to do something like that. Just make sure to validate your code works

SN1P3R · July 22, 2014

Confirmed everything hambeast has shown works. I now have zombies dropping loot at a high rate and epoch/overpoch loot is dropping ;)

Thanks for the help :D

https://gist.github.com/deadfred666/49a26c8b1b47f89ed812

I do not have this file zombie_generate.sqf on my server? Could it be called something else or built into some other file. I made the changes above in my server_functions.sqf but it didn't seem to do anything at all. Here is how my server_functions.sqf looks for that part

// Add 0-3 loots to vehicle using random cfgloots

_num = floor(random 4);

_allCfgLoots = ["trash","civilian","food","generic","medical","military","policeman","hunter","worker","clothes","militaryclothes","specialclothes","trash"];

for "_x" from 1 to _num do {

_iClass = _allCfgLoots call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;

_itemTypes = [];

if (DZE_MissionLootTable) then{

{

_itemTypes set[count _itemTypes, _x select 0]

} count getArray (missionConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> _iClass);

}

else {

{

_itemTypes set[count _itemTypes, _x select 0]

} count getArray (missionconfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> _iClass);

};

_index = dayz_CLBase find _iClass;

_weights = dayz_CLChances select _index;

_cntWeights = count _weights;

_index = floor(random _cntWeights);

_index = _weights select _index;

_itemType = _itemTypes select _index;

_veh addMagazineCargoGlobal [_itemType,1];

//diag_log("DEBUG: spawed loot inside vehicle " + str(_itemType));

};

[_veh,[_dir,_objPosition],_vehicle,true,"0"] call server_publishVeh;

How did you get them to spawn more loot?

SN1P3R · July 23, 2014

In the zombie_generate.sqf file around line 90 change

if (_rnd < 0.2) then { to if (_rnd < 0.65) then { (or whatever percentage you want it to be)

And if you are using custom loot change at around line 95

} count getArray (ConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType)); to this } count getArray (missionConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));

See I don't have a zombie_generate.sqf, i found this array information in the AH.sqf here is what it looks like

adminCallZeds =

{

fnc_addZeds =

{

_position = _this;

for "_i" from 1 to 10 do

{

_unitTypes = []+ getArray (configFile >> "CfgBuildingLoot" >> "Default" >> "zombieClass");

_agent = objNull;

_type = _unitTypes call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;

_radius = 40;

_method = "NONE";

_agent = createAgent [_type, _position, [], _radius, _method];

_agent setVariable ["myDest",_position];

_agent setVariable ["newDest",_position];

_rnd = random 1;

if (_rnd > 0.99) then

{

_lootType = getText (configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> _type >> "zombieLoot");

_lootTypeCfg = getArray (configFile >> "CfgLoot" >> _lootType);

_array = [];

{

_array set [count _array, _x select 0]

} count _lootTypeCfg;

if (count _array > 0) then

{

_index = dayz_CLBase find _lootType;

_weights = dayz_CLChances select _index;

_loot = _array select (_weights select (floor(random (count _weights))));

if(!isNil "_array") then

{

_loot_count = getNumber(configFile >> "CfgMagazines" >> _loot >> "count");

if(_loot_count>1) then

{

_agent addMagazine [_loot, ceil(random _loot_count)];

}

else

{

_agent addMagazine _loot;

};

_id = [_position,_agent] execFSM "\z\addons\dayz_code\system\zombie_agent.fsm";

};

i changed this to .99 and they still don't drop crap

if (_rnd > 0.99) then

{

_lootType = getText (configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> _type >> "zombieLoot");

_lootTypeCfg = getArray (configFile >> "CfgLoot" >> _lootType);

_array = [];

{

you have to pull zombie_generate.sqf from the client files in the @DayZ_Epoch\addons\dayz_code.pbo

Savinakis · July 24, 2014

you have to pull zombie_generate.sqf from the client files in the @DayZ_Epoch\addons\dayz_code.pbo

and add it to the server files? I want to override the client files so I can set the zombie loot for my server, and loot frequency etc.

Hambeast If you still have this , could you repost link or send me a drop box link to it ??
I know is pretty old thread ...

Thank You

Here's my whole zombie_generate.sqf

SchwEde · March 19, 2015

he already said what you need to do ;)

change this:

} count getArray (configFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));

into

} count getArray (missionConfigFile >> "cfgLoot" >> getText(_lootType));

and done

Ok just dont get where LOL .. parden the retarded LOL, I put zombie_generate.sqf in custom compiles, that was posted .. that code not in that .. just trying to decipher what file needs edited

SchwEde · March 19, 2015

just redirect the zombie_generate in your compiles.sqf and edit those lines in the zombie_generate :)
