[Release] Wicked AI 2.2.0

[f3cuk]

THIS VERSION WILL NOT WORK WITH DAYZ EPOCH 1.0.6.1 PLEASE USE THIS VERSION: https://github.com/ebayShopper/WICKED-AI

 

WICKED AI 2.2.0

Since I really like (read love) the Wicked AI missions and support for them has gone in the latest patches, I decided to dust off the old files and start making these 1.0.5+ compatible. Starting with a few minor bugfixes and some custom loadouts, but quickly turning into a proper redo with awesome help of the - very much alive - mod community!

Installation Instructions

• Download the latest release.
• Extract the downloaded folder to your desktop and open it
• Go to your server pbo and unpack it.
• Navigate to the new dayz_server folder and copy the WAI folder into this folder.
• Navigate to the system folder and open server_monitor.sqf
• Find this code at the bottom of the file:

  allowConnection = true;

  And past the following code above it:

  [] ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\init.sqf";

• Repack your server pbo.

Optional Radio messages

Note: These are on by default, change wai_radio_announce in config.sqf to false in order to disable them.

• Go to your mission pbo and unpack it.
• Open init.sqf

  Find:

  //[false,12] execVM "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\local_lights_init.sqf";

  Add below:

  _nil = [] execVM "custom\remote\remote.sqf";

• Copy the remote_message folder into your custom folder, if you do not have this one yet simply create it.
• If you want to be able to switch the radio on or off go to step 5 (note: right click by maca required), else go to step 6 and both remove switch_on_off.sqf and radio.ogg from the remote folder.
• Open extra_hc.hpp

  Find:

  class ExtraRc {

  Add below:

      class ItemRadio {
  	        class switchOnOff {
  	            text = "Switch ON/OFF";
  	            script = "execVM 'custom\remote\switch_on_off.sqf'";
  	        };
  	    };

• Open description.ext

  Find:

  class DayZ_loadingScreen

  Add above

  class CfgSounds
  	{
  	    sounds[] =
  	    {
  	        Radio_Message_Sound
  	    };
  	    class Radio_Message_Sound
  	    {
  	        name = "Radio_Message_Sound";
  	        sound[] = {custom\remote\radio.ogg,0.4,1};
  	        titles[] = {};
  	    };
  	};

[Darihon]

NICE! :D 

[TuBz]

Throwing it at my test server now:)

won't take long as already had the older version:)

[DimitriPokki]

Oh good job  :rolleyes:

[OneManGang]

I wrote a SpawnDeadGroup function for the old WAI that I use to spawn a group of dead soldiers, useful for making it look like a bad fire fight or a training accident if you'd like to check it out.

[bFe]

How do we go about replacing/adding the AIs for those that used customSpawns?

Getting this error when runing over AI with ai_clean_roadkill            = true;

Yeah that would be awesome. Please share :)

There should be an example inside the static folder (default.sqf)

A lot of servers these days are militarized mate, you can always remove them.

[itsatrap]

don't get militarized dayz servers, why not just play wastland

 

but you can change the weapons and vehicle via the config

Not to derail the thread, but there's plenty of reasons, feel free to PM me if you wish to discuss it.

Hi. I am on the way to use this on my server.

Clean coded, Little hard to edit mission file.

And i am stack because i need  StaticAmmoBoxes.

How or where i can define spawn for custom blah_box.?

[itsatrap]

Dont Think there are statik boxs in ver 2.0

[YuriLowell]

Any fix for the tank traps not de spaning after the missions gets completed?

Could you please eleborate on what you are trying to accomplish? Custom ammo boxes should work like they did in the previous version.

 

Any fix for the tank traps not de spaning after the missions gets completed?

 

They should do that. Which mission? Also please check for errors in your server RPT file.

Long time reader, first time poster. 

 

That out of the way, I have Mark's WAI installed currently and came across this post today. In regards to updating/r&r my current WAI with this, do I need to remove the []ExecVM line from server_monitor when adding the parameters for 2.0 or leave it and include ExecVM... for 2.0 to the server_functions? Much appreciate the feedback.

 

Thanks to you folks I've been able to get Epoch up and running with self bb, logistic tow, AI missions and snap pro. Not bad for an old man learning new tricks and I thank you all for the guidance I've quietly gleamed from your posts. It has been and continues to be a blast.

[f3cuk]

Yes, if you want to update from a previous version please make sure that line gets replaced. If you have customized missions or used the custom_spawns.sqf before, please make sure you update yours accordingly. 2.0.0 is not backwards compatible.

I have been running Bandit and Soldier missions with WAI for a while now. I am interested to know if you are going to make it possible to do this in one file or if you will need to have two like i do now. I would offer advise on how i did it but i am sure you guys are way better at this than I am. Everything i write seems like a jacked  up version of what should be.

[Jossy]

Upcoming in 2.1.0+

• Bandit and hero missions

 

I already have the code changes in place to offer variable humanity gain based on the unit spawn call if you would like me to share it, I'm sure you already have started on this though since it's planned for next update ;)

[fireplace]

How does the blacklist work? What are the 2 set of cords for?

 

[[cords 1],[cords 2]],

 

Is it like a radius or something lol. The simple bits always confuse me :(
