There is a config file where u can put in your own ai settings i.e U can make up a mission file and have it pick at random from an array what to set the AI todo...   i.e mission_cherno_hospital =

i'm in the same situation as you were i didn't preinstall sarge tho can you tell me what you did to get it working?

 

Stopped being a noob idiot?

 

I have mostly played with running a privately hosted server.  in that case there are no PBO files.  in this case being hosted on HFB servers the install instructions when it says "copy this to your server" really means copy into the server PBO file.

 

Learn something new every day.

Ahh i see the issue...

SARGE AI is reseting the vehicle ammo to initial state & with epoch DZE vehicles it spawns with no ammo ;)

 

I am using a custom script to add ammo to Epoch  _DZE Vehicles at spawn in, so i never really encounter it before.

But i will alter SARGE AI to add ammo to _DZE Vehicles later tonight + upload a fix for it

Debug montior time is in seconds i.e

21660 seconds / 60 =  360 mins 

360 mins / 60 = 6 hours

 

@Dodgy

Edit your missionmp/init.sqf

change dayz_spaceInterrupt to

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

 

Typo mistake + fixed now on github now..

I still don't quite understand how to do 4 hour restart thought I changed it but it still doesn't work

the restart on the debug monitor is just a countdown timer it has nothing to do with your real restart if your trying to setup schedules restarts go look at Battle Eye Extended controls and setup a scheduler.

No, the roaming sarge AI are just way too out of hand, it's bad.  They'll spawn right next to you and they'll spawn repeatedly, they shoot through walls and ceilings, they walk right through walls, etc.  Plot poles don't seem to make a difference either...  

 

Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea of some dynamic AI running around, but when they spawn and "agro" more than frickin zombies, it's no bueno.  On top of it, we're running Panthera and the landscape makes it a bit rough to see them.  

 

Regardless, we're appreciative of the work you've put into them.  Dynamic AI make things a lot more interesting.

 

We're going to try to change ours out and create an AI base that players can infiltrate.  I'd like to have only a couple parties running around the entire map that don't just spawn in on players, I just don't like that idea at all.  I've been thinking of putting AI in a bigger, high-loot city too, but I'm not sure that'd be a good idea or not.  I think we'll knock the AI missions down to 1 simultaneous as well, encourages more player interaction for one thing, and mofos be gettin too rich too easy.

 

But yeah, maybe we need to mess with the Sarge AI settings, but so far the spawning-in-your-face-repeatedly AI have been leaving our players a bit dissatisfied lol.

Im sorry I wasn't clear I meant to get the correct countdown for the 4 hour restarts. Here is my current code

while {true} do {
	_rtime = round(14400 - serverTime);
	
	if ((_rtime < 235) && (!_warning)) then {
		_warning = true;
		cutText [(localize "STR_custom_5minRestart"),"PLAIN"];
	};

	if (debugMonitor) then {
		_hours = (_rtime/4/16);
		_hours = toArray (str _hours);
		_hours resize 1;
		_hours = toString _hours;
		_hours = compile _hours;
		_hours = call _hours;
		_minutes = round(_rtime/60);
		_minutes2 = _minutes - (_hours*100);

That is fine...

If the timer is running slow its cause your server is under stress i.e to low fps..

 

edit:

Will be an update later to stop boxes getting deleted by server cleanup..

Sarge AI fix for reammo them when usine Epoch DZE Vehicles

Moving some more SARGE AI files to serverside to reduce missionfile size

Thank you for the update, I've lately many and many boxes disappearing out of nowhere.

If you are adding, also please look at AI not shooting at Air vehicles.  I can buzz a mission at 20m and take no fire.  They won't start shooting until I land.

U can ignore the error, its just sarge erroring out unable to find a position to spawn a land vehicle...

I just need to add some error handling for SARGE

 

Most likely it was a mission spawned on a steep hill, all that will happen is the error log + u wont have a vehicle @ the mission

 

 

@CorruptedHart11

Static Spawns should be working fine, double check the positions u are using i.e its not gps co-ords

The position u are using are in the corner of map
