[Release] Wicked AI 2.2.0

[creativv]

Have you installed Infistar?

 

 

Yes i have and it is the latest we bought from Chris himself so we get the updates ,

Is that whats causing it ?

[Tang0]

i had the loot boxes spawn in the air in another script i was using, seems that if you have a loot box with more than 3 bc in it the antihack puts it into the air, you change a part of the AH.sqf script

 

just search for _cfid >=

 

if (_cfid >= 3) then            <<<<< Change the number here to exceed the number of briefs that are in your boxes

 

i changed the 3 to 10

 

try that

Thanks for that i will try that and see if the players have trouble with the lootboxes again.

When i think of it , it is probably this because it only happens to missions i put briefcases in like the mayors mansion and the president mission .

 

Thanks again

[Phail]

sounds great. :)

I also had to remove the new WAI system because of low fps with a medium-high population. So, will try your version when I get back from holiday.

 

Couple of quick questions; what is your player population when running your version of WAI and getting low 30's fps? Also, how many Ai are on the server when you get that reading?

 

Are you going to start a new thread?

 

Thanks

I ran this on a low population, VPS server. AI count is kinda high, probably close to 100 most of the time, 200 if they were doing Sector B. I use a stripped version of WAI 1.7.9 for Sector B that waits until players are within 4000 meters before the AI spawn. Because of the low population, we could get away with it.

I am not going to start a new thread or act like I wrote any of this. I just pieced together stuff from many many other people who have worked on WAI from way back when until now. I wish I could give credit where it was due but I can't remember where or when i found some of this stuff.

Hi, i recently installed a overpochins server on taviana, and i noticed that almost everytime missions are spawning on mountains?

 

How can i change that? For missions not to spawn high on mountains?

 

Cheers! :)

Try this in config.sqf

Then in @DayZ_Epoch_Server\addons\dayz_server\WAI\compile\find_position.sqf   change this

 

if(use_blacklist) then {
        _safepos        = [getMarkerPos "center",0,9500,(_this select 0),0,0.5,0,blacklist];
    } else {
        _safepos        = [getMarkerPos "center",0,9500,(_this select 0),0,0.5,0];

to this

    } else {
        _safepos        = [getMarkerPos "center",0,15000,(_this select 0),0,0.5,0];
    };

 

It is working much better for me on Taviana this way.

Thanks for that, i haven`t had time to make that adjustments that were first proposed, so i`ll give this a try.

Those coords are the  just the mountains that are blacklisted? Also i have DZMS and DZAI installed, so just need to make sure that this blacklisted coords wont affect those in any way?

Anyhow, BIg thanks for your effort to share this :D 

[sampson42002]

I just looked in the config file for wai I didn't see anything or don't know what it would be titled, how do you change from 2 missions spawning at once to say 3?  I might be running an outdated version as well.

 

after reading the change log, I guess the option is there to run more. the version I have must be out of date. I'll try this one on my test server tonight. 

 

thanks

Awesome mission system

However is their anyway to stop players from picking up the mines ?

So i done as u said, and still they are spawning on mountains :(, i double checked that i maybe didn`t done something right, but as i see nothing wrong, but they keep spawning on mountains.

[Phail]

In every mission replace this

_position        = [30] call find_position;                 or whatever is there   

with this

_position        = [10] call find_position;

 

That will make it so that the nearest object can be 10 meters away.

 

If they still spawn on mountains ALL the time IDK what is wrong, mine spawn there sometimes, not very often like before.

Trying to get random coin's to spawn on dead AI.  This was working before I deleted everything to add the WAI 2.2.0.  I saw what ARC_solo  said and tried doing that but still the dead AI are not spawning with coins.  Here is the area of my spawn_group.sqf

if (isNil "_mission") then {

        
            _unit enableAI "TARGET";
            _unit enableAI "AUTOTARGET";
            _unit enableAI "MOVE";
            _unit enableAI "ANIM";
            _unit enableAI "FSM";
                        _cash = round(random 5) * 100;
                        _unit setVariable["headShots",_cash,false];
        
        };

 

Here is the spawn_static.sqf

 

_unit enableAI "TARGET";
        _unit enableAI "AUTOTARGET";
        _unit enableAI "MOVE";
        _unit enableAI "ANIM";
        _unit enableAI "FSM";
                _cash = round(random 5) * 100;
                _unit setVariable["headShots",_cash,false];
        
        removeAllWeapons _unit;
        removeAllItems _unit;

 

Also if I wanted 0 - 5000 coins to randomly be on the dead ai would it be _cash = round(random 5) * 1000; ?  Also this line _unit setVariable["headShots",_cash,false]; I did have set to true and it did not work.  I changed it to false thinking maybe that being true only allows random coins to spawn if the AI was killed by headshot only.

I have make it another way then Hux.

 

I have changed my "compile/find_position.sqf"

 

Search:

markerready = false;

Add below:

if(wai_static_mission_locs) exitWith {
  _position = wai_mission_locations call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;
  _position set [2, 0];
  _position
};

And open "config.sqf"

Search for:

/* STATIC MISSIONS CONFIG */

Add before:

wai_static_mission_locs  = true;
wai_mission_locations  = [
  [856.919,9370.11,0.001],[3468.97,9430.79,0.001],[4721.69,1951.64,0.001],
  [8586.69,7174.76,0.001],[869.732,5158.03,0.001]
];

in the wai_mission_locations array you can add as many locations you want.

Hi Rotzloch,

Did you make some tests with this? In my case two missions spawn, after complete each new mission spawns exactly on the same position. Looks like only the first pass is random.....

Hi Rotzloch,

Yes this was on our live server.

But i had a very long list of locations, and save the last 4 positions, so at these last 4 positions no mission spawns.

[seat2fra]

Yeah I have up to 30 positions. What do you mean with save the last 4 positions?

[seat2fra]

Hi Guys,

Hi Rotzloch,

Since I've installed Rotzloch's method for configure manual spawn locations for missions, no new mission spawns. The locations changed perfect. If no one clears the mission, they despawn. But when a player clears a mission no new missions spawn.

Has someone an idea?

many thx in advance

Never mind!

The problem wasn't your settings.

I've found a general issue in the code of the mission_winorfail.sqf. So now the missions runs smooth.

I also found another issue in that sqf which prevents wai to cleanup buildings after mission was complete --> Fixed.

Many thanks for your help Rotzloch and your nice addon :-)

Does anyone know why there are no static mg's on my missions?

My server.rpt shows this message:
18:45:34 "WAI: [Mission:[Hero] Disabled Convoy]: Starting... [2248.69,4770.86,0]"

is it possibile to get the static ai to spawn in when a players is say 1000m away then spawn out again when player has moved a certain distance away for a certain time period like in DZAI?

Having issues where the mission will have air support. They sit at the zero line and never come in. Anyone else having the same problem?

I had air support working on the previous version but haven't gotten it working properly on the latest release.  Does anyone have a mission with working air support to share?
