[How To] [CPC] Indestructible Bases

[Proximat3]

Thanks bro, it was caused by wrong classname on the wiki - CinderWallDoorLocked_DZ fixed the problem :*

[ToejaM]

If its not in the list and you want it to be indestructible, add it to the list. I added everything I could find at the time of writing the script. Will add this to the main post to.

 

then just add this two: CinderWallDoorLocked_DZ and CinderWallDoorSmallLocked_DZ whats the problem? :D

 

This ^

 

Pretty sure you could just use the group names for them all and it would work and likely keep it updated unless Epoch add group names themself, if someone wants to confirm it I'll add it to the tutorial.

Would work, but only if you change the script in step 3, this:

if (typeOf(_object) in _cpcimmune) then ...

"in" does only work with the exact names, you can change it to something like

_isImmune = false;
{
	if (_object isKindOf _x) exitWith {
		_isImmune = true;
	};
} forEach _cpcimmune;

if (_isImmune) then ...

that should work, didn't test it though :D

 

 

I know that's a little wordy, I've written some array extensions functions for cases like this, will release it soon but for this example you could write it in 1 line like this:

_isImmune = [_cpcimmune, { _object isKindOf _x }] call AEX_any;

for that to work you will need my array function "AEX_any" of course, I just wanted to show you how helpful that could be also for many other things and for people who may not be so fluent in ArmA script or programming it makes some things easier, I hope :)

 

I don't want to hijack this thread but an easy example would be to get a list of all vehicles with damage over 50%:

[vehicles, { damage _x > 0.5 }] call AEX_filter;

that would be all to get a list of all damaged vehicles on the server :D

Around line 44 change this:

1. _object addMPEventHandler ["MPKilled",{_this call object_handleServerKilled;}];
2. // Test disabling simulation server side on buildables only.
3. _object enableSimulation false;

to this:

1. _object addMPEventHandler ["MPKilled",{_this call object_handleServerKilled;}];
2. // Test disabling simulation server side on buildables only.
3. _object enableSimulation false;
4. // ### CPC Swap Object Fix
5. _object addEventHandler ["HandleDamage", {false}];
6. // ### CPC Swap Object Fix

 

1. I did that but now when i join my server it either puts me in debug or just wont load me in or just disconnect me back to lobby :/  Help ?

Strange one I think related to this, I've added the indestructible base for the concrete type walls with the maintenance fix but have an issue with tents. I presume it will be the same with any storage. 

 

I can place the item and access it but cannot actually put anything in it until I relog that character, any ideas if it is related to this or what it could be?

[Metro]

Just added the fixe and double checked everything, I can't place objects anymore, pressing space bar, pgup or down doesn't do anything. Any ideas of what could cause a problem ?

 

Part of my player_build.sqf

	if(!_cancel) then {

		_classname = _classnametmp;

		// Start Build 
		_tmpbuilt = createVehicle [_classname, _location, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
		// ### [CPC] Indestructible Base Fix
		_tmpbuilt addEventHandler ["HandleDamage", {false}];
		_tmpbuilt enableSimulation false;
		// ### [CPC] Indestructible Base Fix
		
		_tmpbuilt setdir _dir;
	
		// Get position based on object
		_location = _position;

You need to check your RPT files for errors, both client and server side RPT files.

 

If you follow my tutorially 100% it will work, it will be caused by another mod or by copy pasting my code incorrectly.

[Metro]

Hm, I don't think I have those, I'm using 1.0.2.5 and https://github.com/denisio/Dayz-Epoch-Linux-Server for my server.

I don't know if there are structural differences in the .sqf that could prevent the mod to run.

Edit : Found errors (for all the objects) in dump.log.

Edit² : Here's my server_monitor.sqf : http://www.sendspace.com/file/dnkpmf or Pastebin : http://pastebin.com/Piuqzz6s

 

Dump.log

 

if (typeOf(_object) in _cpcimmune) then {

_object addEventHandl>

12:08:58   Error position: <_cpcimmune) then {

_object addEventHandl>

12:08:58   Error Undefined variable in expression: _cpcimmune

12:08:58 File z\addons\dayz_server\system\server_monitor.sqf, line 209

12:08:58 "VEHICLE oid: 273, c: GNT_C185U, d: 0, f: 0.028"

12:08:58 Error in expression <Damage _damage;

Edit 3 : I have a _object setposATL _pos; instead of a _object setpos _pos;

I don't know if it's relevant.

[ToejaM]

I dont think that there are differences between the versions but I run mine on the windows version and have no experience with the Linux one.

 

Its telling you that the error is around line 209, your file is completely different to mine around that number due to the spaced out file names (done so its easier for most to read). Are you using another mod that might change this even more?

 

This is my server_monitor.sqf:

[ToejaM]

I cut yours down to the same as mine from the top and you have many things commented out or different, your server_monitor is completely different to mine, what did you do to it? :)

[Metro]

Nothing besides the fact I use the linux version made by denisio, Indestructible Bases is the only mod I use which modify server_monitor.
Besides this I have AGN Safezone & Chernarus Mission installed.

 

I managed to fix the line 209 error. I forgot to add the "_cpcimmune =["WoodFloor_DZ", etc" to the dayz_server.pbo. The rest is ok.

But pressing spacebar to place objects still have no effects. I don't have any noticeable errors in the log now.

[Axe Cop]

The linux version should use the same scripts!? so why is yours so different, or are you using another version of epoch maybe?

[Metro]

No I'm using the 1.0.2.5. That being said, the others mods are working fine.

With this one, the main problem is that the keys to place objects no longer work.

[ToejaM]

Check client side rpt, search your pc for it. Errors will be in there. If you're using someone else's file then that's why but you have very large differences to default and lots of important parts commented out. If you use my server monitor it should work fine. My changes are very basic code wise..

[Metro]

Nothing in the client side rpt, going to use your server_monitor to see if it works.

[Axe Cop]

Anyway check this out, good online file diff /merge tool, there you can see the difference between ToejaM's version and your file and as you see you have many stuff commented out (your file is on the right side): http://www.mergely.com/gx0TlE74/

question is why did you do that? :D

[Metro]

As I said, I'm using this Linux Epoch Server. I did nothing other than using it. It's a vanilla server_monitor (for this version at least). :o

So I used ToejaM server_monitor and it didn't fix the problem (plus vehicles couldn't spawn).

I guess the problem is located in player_build.sqf.

Here's mine : http://pastebin.com/fiMQXhL2

The only way I can place objects at the moment is by logging out when the placing timer is running.

[Axe Cop]

I see no error in your player_build.sqf, just wondering why your linux version is so much different from the default Epoch 1.0.2.5 code, maybe it doesn't work with the default scripts, whyever that would be?

I've never tried to run it with linxux myself ^^

[Metro]

I think I'm going to stick with the destructible bases. Haven't checked yet but do you think it's possible to lower the maintenance cost ?

[Axe Cop]

I think I'm going to stick with the destructible bases. Haven't checked yet but do you think it's possible to lower the maintenance cost ?

I don't think you can change the config files, because they are binarized in the config.bin and that file cannot be added to the mission file, correct me if i am wrong.

You could change the script and remove the maintain costs or set a general costs for all items maybe..

[boxman80]

I'm struggling to get this to work on our server. I applied the part 1 and part 2 fixes to our dayz.st server but base structures are still destructible. Any advice or anyone able to quickly check my files to see where I am going wrong? thanks in advance.

[ToejaM]

Check your RPT.

[boxman80]

Check your RPT.

 

 

What sort of thing am i looking for?

[ToejaM]

Errors mate

[boxman80]

Nothing that I can see that specifically relates to the indestructible base objects.
