Trashpile Lootmap

[Creep]

Hey Guys,

I wanted to create a screenshot of the best Loot positions ingame, mainly the trashpiles are important for building materials

 

So I have been playing around in editor, but I couldnt get my functions to work :S

They should create a marker on every trashpile

Maybe you can tell me whats wrong with them, or how to execute them besides from console, if thats the issue:

 

 

_number = 0;

_Trash = nearestObjects [player, ["Land_JunkPile_F","Land_Sack_F","Land_Sacks_goods_F","Land_GarbageBags_F","Land_GarbagePallet_F"], 5000];

{

_number = _number + 1;

_markername = format ["%1_%2", typeOf _x, _number];

_marker = createMarkerLocal [_markername, position _x];

_marker setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON";

_marker setMarkerTypeLocal "mil_dot";

_marker setMarkerColorLocal "ColorGreen";

} forEach _Trash;

 

 

 

OR:

 

 

_Trash = getMarkerPos "realtor" nearObjects ["Land_GarbageBags_F", 5000];

{

    _bla = createMarkerLocal [str(_x),getPos _x];

    _bla setMarkerType "Select";

} 

forEach _Trash;

 

 

 

Thanks alot,

 

Creep

SOMEONE HELP THIS MAN I NEED THIS

Might want to post this in another forum in the scripting section. But, if you get it to work please share.

[Creep]

Unfortunately the Arma 3 section hasnt got one, so I felt this to be the right place :S

 

anyways, I am trying to finish this today, gonna try to add it to an external script rather than to the debug console

[Creep]

I also tried using the createMarker instead of the Local one now.. didnt work out either 

[vbawol]

This section is ok for now. The trash is going to be very intensive to find as they do not have classes are must be detected with 

 

nearestObjects [player, [], 50]

Here you go took a few minutes

[ToejaM]

Nice, posted this on my forum also :-)

[Creep]

Nice, are these already only trashpiles or all objects as the command states ? 

[vbawol]

These dots are only our lootable trash objects.

Thanks this will be a lot help to the lone wolves who roam the wilderness looking for scrap metal

[TheHermit]

This is garbage!

[Chief]

I believe that map basically tells you to go into towns.  Still not entirely sure what you were trying to work on creep.  I mean trash is everywhere go find it.  I play lone wolf and you are just as likely to get shot in ifestonia as pygros LOL.

[Creep]

If you ever wondered, there are spots with much trash that arent that common to players

[Sequisha]

This is garbage!

I lol'd.

This is straight trash; no bones about it.

[SkyDogs]

With the density of trash around Kavala, one would expect to find at least one backpack amongst it all. Did I find one after around 70 attempts? Did I feckers like.

Nevertheless, this is a useful map to which I am grateful for.

[Čeh]

I don't think it's quite accurate - been to some places where there was supposed to be trash, nothing there (as in no trash, bins, barrels, boxes....)

[Brez]

Look at all that stomping ground.

[Nic]

Wait, so how did you get it to only mark the trash piles? I only ask because I would like to do the same thing with the water barrels. 

[HFPatzi]

Maybe just change the object/class name (Land_GarbageBags_F) to what ever you want to be marked. But I'm not into scripting that much, so this is just long-shot guess ;)

[Creep]

Yep, just what he said. Exchange the classname to the object you want. There is a list with pictures on the bi wiki

[Nic]

 

_number = 0;

_Container = nearestObjects [player, ["Land_BarrelWater_F"], 500];

{

_number = _number + 1;

_markername = format ["%1_%2", typeOf _x, _number];

_marker = createMarkerLocal [_markername, position _x];

_marker setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON";

_marker setMarkerTypeLocal "mil_dot";

_marker setMarkerColorLocal "ColorGreen";

} forEach _Container;

 

I tried executing this in the debug console in the editor, but no markers were made.

 

If you try what vbawol suggested

 

 

 

nearestObjects [player, [], 50]

 

It will mark every object in the radius, every tree, bush, grass, etc. So, how do you only get it to mark the objects you want? I think the water barrels, like the trash piles, don't have class names, so I am wondering how to only mark the water barrels.

nearestObjects [player, [], 50]

that 50 is the ammounts of meters away from the "Player". I guess there werent itmes clear to you, and i'm pretty sure u need to give in a name in that [] ^^

 

For example=

nearestObjects [player, ["ALL"], 50000]

50k should be ok i guess in each direction? no clue how big the map is tbh.

ALL covers all the objects.

If the object is really called

Land_BarrelWater_F

then use that instead to only get those items.

 

Ill pass you a tree strucutre of items names/parents

Problem is that whatever you try the trashpile objects and some other misc thing cant be found by the classname..

Exactly, I did a little research and apparently in some update to improve performance, most of the class names have been striped from the map models.

If you looked at the code I tried to execute, I did include a classname and it still did not work.

Was there a waterbarrel in 500 meter radius of you?
