Torndeco Mission System - DZAI AI

[Zernichter]

yeah the github directory doesnt exist anymore :(

[Torndeco]

Gonna make a new repo when code is done + tested...

Was a branch from original dayz-mission code + is complete rewrite...

Didn't want to spam thier history line..

 

Atm i am awaiting new DZAI version 1.9

 

Main Changes players will notice besides a different AI  http://opendayz.net/threads/dzai-1-9-0-rolling-changelog.17587/

 

1) Lack of Land AI Vehicles

 

2) AI Helis wont spawn at mission, instead there will be a random chance,of a trigger that will tell one of the patroling DZAI Helis to come to the mission site to Search + Destroy

Loot wont spawn @ crates until a player approaches them, will help stop AI robbing ammo from crates.

 

3) AI with RPGS ;)  poor poor vodniks

 

4) Parachuting AI

 

 

Also Dayz Standalone got released so need to try out

Really hate the no private servers, plus the cost of renting a managed server.

Plus no admin rights, no reserved slots or ability to kick / ban...  kinda wonder why people would pay for a managed server atm.

Intial Upload for Mission System @ https://github.com/Torndeco/Epoch-Missions

Hello Torndeco,

 

first of all, thank you for your work!

 

We are testing DZAI with your mission system, DZAI works fine (got heli patrols and even static spawns) but it's been almost 1 hour since the restart and none of your missions are popping up. Server FPS are high, so what did I do wrong?

 

Oh and the custom debug monitor is not working, I get this error:

 

"Script \extras\debug_monitor\dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf not found"

[Torndeco]

Updated Github...

 

Added the mission dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf

 

Also updated the install instructions i.e

 

-------------------------------------

 

Edit your mpmission/init.sqf
Look for
 

"filmic" setToneMappingParams [0.153, 0.357, 0.231, 0.1573, 0.011, 3.750, 6, 4]; setToneMapping "Filmic";

Change it to
 

"filmic" setToneMappingParams [0.153, 0.357, 0.231, 0.1573, 0.011, 3.750, 6, 4]; setToneMapping "Filmic";

// Missions
dayz_spaceInterrupt = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "extras\debug_monitor\dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf";
execVM "addons\Missions\init.sqf";

[Schultz]

Awesome!

 

Now missions are loaded and work fine, but the custom monitor keeps flashing and it's not toggleable (pressing F10 will make it disappear but after 1 second it will pop back up).

 

 

I also have another question: do you plan on adding the ability to make weapons crates to spawn at static locations with random amount of defined loot in?

 

Thank you again for the time you're putting into this!

 

EDIT: to make this custom monitor working, I just had to disable Infistar monitor from Infistar config.

[goldenpsp]

Schultz.

 

are you by chance using infistar antihack?

[Torndeco]

If u are using infistar anti-hack...

 

Recommend u just disable / remove the code for the debug monitor in it..

Will save yourself some hassle.

[Schultz]

Yes Infistar, I already disabled the custom monitor, it's not a problem.

 

Another question: I saw that loot into the mission boxes is defined in the cfg and it's taken out of loot tables:

mission_loot_tables = ["Military", "MilitaryIndustrial", "MilitarySpecial", "Supermarket", "Industrial", "HeliCrash_No50s", "SupplyDrop", "Farm"];

Is it possible to add another category making the base building supplies available in those crates? 

[Torndeco]

https://github.com/Torndeco/Epoch-Custom-Loot  and define another loot table...

Anyway building supplies are in the industrial loot table

 

 

If your debug monitor is flashing back up...

U messed up somewhere or have some custom code that is changing debugMonitor back to true

Also by disabling the debug monitor for infistar i meant delete the lines of code for it

Great!

 

Now, apart from the loot boxes that come with missions, if it would be possible to spawn loot boxes at fixed locations it would be so great! Any chance?

[Torndeco]

Fix positions on map ?  Never gonna happen...

Go look @ other mission systems like EMS that use fixed positions.

 

Fixed postions in certain building types i.e like loot positions   Already planned... i just need to make up up crate positions/

[axekie]

i have Sarge ai + you Sarge ai mission
if i need to use your new mission
i need to delete Sarge ai in in my server and install DZAI ai + you DZAI mission ?

[Torndeco]

DZAI is another AI + is more actively developed atm...

Its forums are @ http://opendayz.net/forums/DZAI/

 

Its possible to install both AI's but its hassle, since both AI mess with faction setttings...

 

But yeah its easier to just delete SARGE + install DZAI.

 

It has some nice features like

AI has player backpacks...

No need to configure loot or weapons or skins.

U can config it so AI will eject from a Heli

[axekie]

thank you Torndeco

[thade]

Hi Torndeco, love your work mate awesome job!

 

Is there a way to use something like this

 

 _hint = parseText format["<t align=center' color='#009900' shadow='2' size='1.75'>Mission Alert</t><br/><t align='center' color='#ffffff'>Banndits are securing the site! Check your map for the location!</t&gt];
 customRemoteMessage = ['hint', _hint];
 publicVariable "customRemoteMessage";

 

to replace the middle of screen text messages? I am not to fan a debug monitor always displaying.

[Torndeco]

There is a config option to not use the debug monitor

mission_warning_debug = false;

Then u can remove the mpmission/extras/debug_monitor  directory

U will still need the stringtable.xml + mpmisison/addons  d

 

Instead of remote excuting the code it processed localy on client, that way text is localized for user i.e for non-native english people.

[Torndeco]

Fix on github to stop AI from respawning @ mission sites

[Richie]

Great script, works perfect, Ai are sneaky little bastards :D

 

Only snag is the debug, I can't remove it and it interferes with my custom debug :( How can i get it to not use the debug ?

and how do i set how many weapons and ammo mags are in the crates ?

[Radec59437]

Oh wow, you're my hero.

A simple mission system that works along with DZAI.

Thank you.

[Torndeco]

Thx...

Sorry about lack of updates been playing SA + server population taken a hit.

 

Updated the documentation on how to disable the debug monitor code...

 

Hopefully i wont get asked how to do it, when the answer is 2 posts above it

*looks* @ Richie :rolleyes:

[Radec59437]

Same, we've been running constantly under 20 every since SA came out..

I know you don't give out instructions on the debug tweaking, but I was wondering, would I be able to put this into the infiSTAR's debug screen?

I'm not sure that's running on the client or not, need to look into it.

I looked and on page 5 you linked a fix to a page that no longer exists, I also read the fix 2 replies up, debug still shows but i've just seen in your post to remove it also states removing

dayz_spaceInterrupt = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "extras\debug_monitor\dayz_spaceInterrupt.sqf";

 

I never removed that, Cheers Torndeco, very nice script.
