How to stop users from knocking down the ATM

[Storm]

Ok I found a way to stop users from knocking down the ATMs and other objects.

 

You can do this for any object.

 

Open up banks.sqf in the .pbo file

 

I am not really going into detail on how about doing this as it would take a while to explain, but you can get the general idea from my banks.sqf

On my server I added Dynamic Traders and added a Banker which trades metals for coins and has the bank dialog.

Good to know, but its in the wrong topic

_this enableSimulation false;

 

does magic to

Yeah on my new one I did this one instead.

Just because my old one would disappear due to the heliempty.

So I installed this, jumped in an SUV to test, galloped at the "infostand" and bam it's down (20 meters away from it's usual location).

I did some more testing (at other traders) they are like Rocky Balboa, keep coming back up when you beat em good. I think I hit the first one at a sweet angle or something?

 

Anyhow - this has been an improvement for us as it protects the poor infostand most of the time from attacks whereas our previous protection rate was zero.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Well here is the good thing about the enablesimulation it only does it locally.

Meaning if you knock it down, it will only be knocked down for you no other players will see it knocked down.

Excellent. It's better than I could come up with. Troublemakers will waste their time lol

can anyone elaborate on where exactly to add
_this setsimulation false

_vehicle_187 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
  _this = createVehicle ["FoldTable", [6221.2905, 4625.8779, -0.079633094], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
  _vehicle_187 = _this;
  _this setDir 118.5292;
  _this setPos [6221.2905, 4625.8779, -0.079633094];
  _this enableSimulation false;
};

like so?

any input on this would be much appreciated. using the heli pads is probably the least preferable way for me, and so far I can't seem to get

  _this enableSimulation false;

to work as you can still knock stuff down.
