[Release] Wicked AI 2.2.0

[f3cuk]

@andyuk5: If you want to use the static missions i.c.w. a map specific file, please make sure that file has the correct filename. (e.g. change chernarus.sqf to dayz_epoch_11.sqf)

 

--

 

@hybridfury: To be honest i dont know details about any other AI mod. I would say try and see if you get your desired results. If DZMS uses markers getPos in combination with the marker seems like a nice place to start.

@BigDaddy: Thanks for noticing, edited the OP.

 

--

 

@kylemf88: Yeah it should work without any problems on any map. If you look back a few pages i think someone has given his overpoch arrays with guns etc

 

--

 

@PeterBeer: Hmm cant believe i managed to miss that one, will get fixed in 2.0.5.

Progress update

Hey guys, thanks for the overwhelming support. Jossy has been pretty very busy with the next big version (2.1.0) and we are making good progress on that.
 

We need more missions

One of the goals we set for Wicked AI is to have more missions available. In the end content is always the most important part of any ai mod and thus we are still looking for people that can help us on that side. If you have made your own customized missions (even if it's for the old version and doesn't work anymore) please consider sharing. You'd be doing all of us a great favor. Please either share them in this topic or send them through PM.

[Darth_Rogue]

You missed my post a few back. :(

[f3cuk]

Sorry.

Ehm it looks like you are trying to spawn something static. Are you sure that is the whole code of your default.sqf?

When you say we need more missions I think it would be better if we had more then one mission running at the same time 

 

When you have 25 players on it becomes a F3cuk Fest

Yah havent tested what I proposed, but dont think it will work and yah i started thinking about using the markers that DZMS creates.  There are 3 of them, DZMSMajMarker, DZMSMinMarker and DZMSEliteMarker.  So what would be the line of code to use for that in conjuction with getpos in WAI?

[PeterBeer]

Might also be helpful to add this to every Ammo crate 

_box setVehicleInit "this allowDammage false";

Stops the trolls destroying the crates crashing in to it 

[hybridfury]

Ok here is what I came up with:

//Load config
	ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\config.sqf";

	waitUntil {configloaded};
		diag_log "WAI: AI Config File Loaded";

_disMin = (getpos DZMSMinMarker);
_disMaj = (getpos DZMSMajMarker);
_disElite = (getpos DZMSEliteMarker);
_okDis = ((_disMaj > 1000) AND (_disElite > 1000) AND (_disMin > 1000));
		
	if(use_blacklist) then {
		safepos				= [getMarkerPos "center",5,7000,30,0,0.5,0,blacklist];
	} else {
		safepos				= [getMarkerPos "center",0,5000,30,0,0.5,0];
	};

	[] spawn ai_monitor;

	if(static_missions) then {
		ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\static\init.sqf";
	};
	
	if (wai_mission_system) then {
		ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\missions\init.sqf";
	};

};

Would this work to detect the markers made by DZMS to prevent mission overlapping?

[hybridfury]

Actually missing a call to _okdis, need to find where to put this in.  Possibly this???

//Load config
	ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\config.sqf";

	waitUntil {configloaded};
		diag_log "WAI: AI Config File Loaded";

_disMin = (getpos DZMSMinMarker);
_disMaj = (getpos DZMSMajMarker);
_disElite = (getpos DZMSEliteMarker);
_okDis = ((_disMaj > 1000) AND (_disElite > 1000) AND (_disMin > 1000));
		
	if(use_blacklist AND _okDis) then {
		safepos				= [getMarkerPos "center",5,7000,30,0,0.5,0,blacklist];
	} else {
		safepos				= [getMarkerPos "center",0,5000,30,0,0.5,0];
	};

	[] spawn ai_monitor;

	if(static_missions) then {
		ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\static\init.sqf";
	};
	
	if (wai_mission_system) then {
		ExecVM "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI\missions\init.sqf";
	};

};

[hybridfury]

Ok went about it another way with the help of a friend.  Here is what we came up with and what I am getting ready to test on my server.  We edited the DZMSFunctions.sqf file.  Here is the portion we changed:

//Lets check for minimum mission separation distance
			_waimarker = getMarkerPos Mission;
			_disElite = (_pos distance DZMSEliteCoords);
			_disMaj = (_pos distance DZMSMajCoords);
			_disMin = (_pos distance DZMSMinCoords);
			_waiishere = (_pos distance _waimarker);
			_okDis = ((_disMaj > 1000) AND (_disMin > 1000) AND (_disElite > 1000) AND (_waiishere > 1000));

Will report back what happens :P

[hybridfury]

If you would like to run DZMS and Wicked AI together and not have missions overlap -

 

Here is what we came up with and it seems to work so far as for DZMS looking for WAI markers.  So it should prevent DZMS from spawning on top of WAI, but not WAI spawning on top of DZMS.  Still working on making WAI look for DZMS markers.  Here is my code.  I have a modified DZMS so you will need to take out any references to elite, but the rest should work.  This code is in DZMSFunctions.sqf search for the commented line below and replace what you find under it with what is below.  You will need to add _waimarker and _waiishere to the private line at the top of DZMSfunctions.sqf  Also if you have added any of your own missions and created new marker names for them you will need to create a few new lines to make it search for and see those custom markers.

//Lets check for minimum mission separation distance
			_waimarker = getMarkerPos "Mission";
			_disElite = (_pos distance DZMSEliteCoords);
			_disMaj = (_pos distance DZMSMajCoords);
			_disMin = (_pos distance DZMSMinCoords);
			_waiishere = (_pos distance _waimarker);
			_okDis = ((_disMaj > 1000) AND (_disMin > 1000) AND (_disElite > 1000) AND (_waiishere > 1000));

I have both Hero and Bandit missions spawning right now, which should come with the next major update, however it would be nice to have alternate missions to spawn for the bandits, doesn't quite make sense to have to copy them all over and have the same missions ;)

 

As for multiple missions for the same alignment group, side missions will be made available in a future update, perhaps even non-combat missions!

Missed a set of brackets I see.  Nice....  Explains why that wasn't working too.  Thanks for that!  :)

 

But what about the boxes?  See towards the bottom of the file.  There are two boxes called to spawn as well.  Same issue with those??

Be careful with our future updates coming the Marker's won't have the name "Mission" any more since there will be multiples, more support should be added to check for other mission markers also if we can get around to it

They more than likely weren't spawning because the static gun was throwing an error

Hmmmmm....ok I will fix the brackets and report back in the morning.  Thanks for the help!

Awesome, ty!

[kylemf88]

@kylemf88: Yeah it should work without any problems on any map. If you look back a few pages i think someone has given his overpoch arrays with guns etc

 

I could only find a way to change the Ai weapons to overpoch, not the gun boxes. I'll be honest, I dont understand most of what I'm reading so maybe I missed it?

[_box, 10, 5, 15] call spawn_ammo_box;

^ box to fill, num of weapons, num of tools, num of items.

 

it gets the items from ai_wep_random box_tools and box_items, but at the moment you need to know what ammo to put in each 2nd nested array, this is something we can tweak within a few updates I think.

[DaVIdoSS]

Well there is bug in config.sqf

box_items array should not have "ItemKeyKit" inside.

It shouldbe inside box_tools.
