Where to install custom scripts?

[Tricks]

A freind of mine has given me a simple script to try, he mentioned to out it in my Arma3 folder server side and call it from my init.sqf like so:

if(isServer) then {[] execVM 'Scripts\customscripts.sqf';};

Where would I create this "Scripts" folder? Next to my @whatever addon folders?

 

Thanks!

is it in its own PBO? sounds like you drop it into your @epochhive/addons folder

 

if it is  @FOLDER did it come with key? it would req everyone to download it and put it in there arma 3 folder to just use it.

 

but with u have here 

if(isServer) then {[] execVM 'Scripts\customscripts.sqf';};

that's called from your mission folder so....many chocies

No its not a PBO but a single .sqf file. I would like to keep it server side. It is for admins only, players do not need to be able to access it.

had to find the info again i could not rememeber off top of my head 

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

Install: Place the file into your @EpochHive/Addons folder.

 

 

Files:
Your Script
customscripts.sqf > Main file being called.

\init\
fn_init.sqf > File calling the customscripts.sqf from the location.


\root\
config.cpp > File that initializes SERVER pbo configurations.

PboPrefix.txt
Quality check to ensure that the files are being called.

 

then pack it up into a pbo and place it in your @epochhive\addons folder

 

that would keep it server side then next part is calling it

 

 

config.cpp

class CfgPatches {
	class custom_scripts {
		units[] = {};
		weapons[] = {};
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_server_settings"};
	};
};
class CfgFunctions {
	class customs {
		class main {
			file = "x\addons\custom_scripts";
			class init {
				postInit = 1;
			};
		};
	};
}; 

PboPrefix.txt

x\addons\custom_scripts

$PREFIX$

x\addons\custom_scripts

fn_init.sqf

diag_log "Loading Custom scripts";
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "x\addons\custom_scripts\customscripts.sqf";

diag_log "Custom scripts Loaded";

customscripts.sqf

your code

thats how the inside of the pbo should look i cant find the original post about it sorry for the calling part it calls it right off the bat once server is loaded

 

hope some of this helps
