fexxianosch Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Maybe i got a funny idea for a mission (have not read the whole thread... hope i am not "reinventing" this idea) Hunting the Duck/Bird: -Small duck/bird flying over the map with "imaginary" gps device attached for seeing it on the map and some sort of proof item in its inventory that you shot the duck/bird e.g. Evidence (Dog tags) -Add a reward NPC where you can exchange the item for money No idea if it is scriptable, but it could be kind of funny to see ppl shoting in the air to get this freakin duck/bird.

insta Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Ok well thanks to Megaz I finally got the custom AI groups to spawn, had to modify your file with my co-ordinates & it finally came to life - cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiiShinoo Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Apart from that it actually works on 1051? Try these: https://github.com/f3cuk/WICKED-AI/blob/master/changelist.md Yes this is possible using something like this. _position = [0,0,0]; // coords center of the mission _start = false; waitUntil{ { if((isPlayer _x) && (_x distance _position <= 1500)) then { _start = true }; } count playableUnits; (_start) }; This is not how this works. ai_share_distance is the amount of distance between you and the AI you killed for AI to share your rough position. So for example if you set it to 300 and you are 400m away from the AI you just killed, they won't share your rough location (e.g. look towards you). Easy enough _dice = random 10; if(_dice < 2) then { // about 20% chance // code here }; Hi but you just sent me the same again? still dynamic loot? i need to choose what loot each crate/AI have?

The first part of the code is what ib ased it off. Can somebody help me out here with what i did wrong? And what's the best way to get cordinates for the choppers? (the radius to spawn chopper iaadjusted that several times, based on the infistar debug monitor cordinates. Aint working?) Tried these cordinates : 8893.29,9178.14,0.00143433 on spawnpoint & patrolpoint... Spawns look ok : What map you running?

f3cuk Posted September 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yes that should work (although please test before putting it live). Anywhere in the default.sqf is fine, just make sure the piece of code is above the actual spawning of the groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f3cuk Posted September 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Hi but you just sent me the same again? still dynamic loot? i need to choose what loot each crate/AI have? Yes dynamic loot is included. But this is actually a good thing and can be easily adjusted to perfectly suit your needs if you learn how to use it. If you really want static loot I'm pretty sure someone has explained how to in this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiiShinoo Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yes I really need static loot, I will have shook after work to see where it's posted , if you seen it before please direct me to where I can find a post about static loot or maybe add a little section at the bottom page your topic it would help a lot with late comers like me. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiiShinoo Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Also I have a suggestion for next update , it would be even better if you could have the mission startup message Pop up on top right of screen in a dialog box with an image of the vehicle that spawned for that mission, I seen couple of servers have that and it's so much cooler than text in middle of the screen! Would love to see that abdon , thanks Mikeeeyy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaiides Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 hello quick question how can you modify the mission so that you can use a custom made box instead of dynamic loot, not sure on what need to be changed in the code or added, or how to do change whats in the dynamic loot, would really apreciate an explanation on it thank you very much.

ATRealMaster Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Maybe you can make the AIs act more player like, eg. they will pick up loot, maybe camp inside a loot building or maybe a sniper near Cherno/Electro Sniping players that comes through.

Ghee Buttersnaps Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 I have this working on my main server and testing server. We have somewhat of an issue though. Our server has satchel charges for sale, but not RPG's. RPG's and other launchers are given out as event prizes, etc. Some of the missions are spawning something like 15 satchel charges, or 10-15 hotwire kits. We had one spawn 4 RPG's and rockets for them. Is there any way I can turn this off, or limit how much of it spawns without using a static loot table? I love the dynamic loot, as it adds in so much more variety. Any help would be great, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellWalker Posted September 24, 2014 Report Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hey guys, i'm trying to make a mission, but i'm with a problem... I'd like to have the mission to run only once per server restart, i don't want them to be running from time to time. Also i want it in a static place (i don't think this is going to be a problem).

koreaoverpoch Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hi, I used this script for my server. But when I put static AIs at certain area, There are double AIs spawned. I mean, If I put 1 AI at grid : 110012 then 2 AIs are spawned at that point. Also When the mission is spawned, some of AIs and static guns are duplicated other certain area. How can I fix this problem?. I used default.sqf file to put the static AIs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wootywoop Posted September 25, 2014 Report Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hi F3cuk, Is this update of WAI compatible with DZMS AI? I ask this because i tried running this with DZMS and found logging into the server after installing was extremely slow. In my RPT logs I found messages such as: NetServer::SendMsg: cannot find channel #137608413, users.card=2 Creation of object O 1-2-A:<Empty main subgroup> failed, state LOGGED IN Client: Nonnetwork object 3337a020. Client: Nonnetwork object 314f3400. As soon as i reverted to my current setup these messages stopped appearing. It's a shame really, the update looks like a real improvement :) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I made second minefield file as minefield2.sqf. after that put the minefield2.sqf. file to the compile folder and modified init.sqf file. See below minefield = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\compile\minefield.sqf"; minefield2 = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\compile\minefield2.sqf"; And add the minefield at the end of the default.sqf like this : [[6200.68,14159.8,0],10,400,800,1] call minefield2; [ [position where you want],radious min, radious max, mine number, 1] call minefield2; I don't know What this mean : _allmines = []; So, I just put the number 1. I'll try to my test server PS : I just wonder Why there's double spawning at the certain static spawning point. I mean, If I put 2 Ai at the certain spawn point. There are 4 Ai spawned. Anyone plz tell me the reason. Thank you. Sorry for my bad english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
