random starting loadout

[Achmed]

Is there anyway to make the starting loadout random?

Woukd be configured with a list of potential items for tools, mags, sidearms, primarys and backpacks and also what chance there is for each item.

Ability to set min and max amount of tools and mags etc.

Just an idea really. Anyone know if uts already done or if possiable?

Anyone know if this is possiable?

It should be, use the same basic method for adding in custom loadouts, which is found here: http://dayzepoch.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1855-multi-custom-load-outs/

 

But instead of making it ID based, edit server_playerLogin.sqf with something like:

switch (random 5) do {
 case 0: loadout 1;
 case 1: loadout 2;
 case 2: loadout 3;
 case 3: loadout 4;
 case 4: loadout 5;
};

Haven't actually tried it, but I don't see a reason it shouldn't work.
