Great example on how it works... I was hoping to know how to change them and expand the distance. For some reason the safe zones are gone completely when I changed the spawn height for halo spawn... Now I got players killing traders.

If u want to make your custom safe zones unpack your a3_epoch_server_settings.pbo and edit config.cpp

		propsPos[] = {

				{ "ProtectionZone_Invisible_F", { 13731.1, 14945.1, 0.01 }, 161.7 }, //TRADER PROTECT
				{ "ProtectionZone_Invisible_F", { 21413.1, 17337.1, 0.5 }, 161.7 }, //TRADER PROTECT
				{ "ProtectionZone_Invisible_F", { 6293.1, 14894.1, 0.2 }, 161.7 }, //TRADER PROTECT
				{ "ProtectionZone_Invisible_F", { 20213.1, 11293.1, 0.14 }, 161.7 } //TRADER PROTECT

There is also other way to make safe zones. You can call it from init.sqf in MPMission folder.

Unpack your mission.pbo lets say epoch.Altis.pbo

Create file safe_zones.sqf add inside your zones. 

 private ["_objects"];
_objects = [
    ["ProtectionZone_Invisible_F",[11605.1, 12005.1, 0.01]], 
    ["ProtectionZone_Invisible_F",[11605.1, 11980.1, 0.01]] 

];

{
 private ["_obj"];
 _obj = createVehicle [_x select 0, [0,0,0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
 _obj setvectorup [0,0,1]; 
 _obj setPosATL (_x select 1);
} foreach _objects;

and call it from init.sqf

 

[] execVM "safe_zones.sqf";

any way to increase the radius of the safezones?

 

NO, safezones are actual invisible objects here. 

 

Eather make multiples, or write something the old way ( not recommended tho)

 

The radius of such a safezone object is 25meter.

 

 

 

Small sidenote

 

If u use the object

ProtectionZone_F

Then u can see a red dome from the ouside, ( not when u are in it).

@prone - Under mission.sqm in your mission.pbo... add to class markers.. Make sure you apply the correct item number at the top...zero counts as 1...
 

class Markers
{
items=10;
class Item0
{
position[] = {14939.934,0.053499073,15083.272};

};
class Item2
{
position[] = {23600.611,3.19,18000.768};
name = "respawn_west";
type = "Empty";
};
class Item3
{

If you want to add sensors to it as well ....
 

class Sensors
{
items=3;
class Item0
{
position[]={18459.535,23.616171,14277.782};
a=300;
b=300;
activationBy="ANY";
repeating=1;
interruptable=1;
age="UNKNOWN";
name="eastsafezone";
expCond = "(player) in thislist;(vehicle player) in thislist;";
expActiv="hint ""You have entered A Safe Zone! Do not fire in Safe Zones."";";
expDesactiv="hint ""You are leaving the Safe Zone!"";";
class Effects
{
};
};
class Item1
{
position[]={6195.4927,89.220779,16839.254};
a=300;
b=300;
activationBy="ANY";
repeating=1;
interruptable=1;

class Effects

};
class Item2

How would i go about adding a map 'marker' to the static traders to inform people of a "safe zone".

 

I run my markers from init.sqf

 

lets say marker_1 and marker_2. So in init.sqf 

[] execVM "markers_1.sqf";
[] execVM "markers_2.sqf";

Next create 2 files marker_1 and marker_2. inside add:

 

markers_1

_this = createMarker ["safe zone marker", [23700.1, 19026.1, 0]];//cords
_this setMarkerShape "ELLIPSE";
_this setMarkerColor "ColorGreen";//marker color
_this  setMarkerAlpha 0.7;
_this setMarkerSize [600, 600]; //marker size

markers_2

_markerName = "Safe Zone";                                      //set marker name, can see on map
_this = createMarker ["Safe Zone marker", [23700.1, 19026.1, 0]];
_this setMarkerType "mil_dot";
_this setMarkerText format[_markerName];
_this setMarkerColor "ColorBlack";         //color

There is other ways to do it, this is how my markers work=)
