A3EAI - Roaming/Vehicle AI Patrols - Discontinued

[Face]

@bigsl83 

Thanks for sticking to A3EAI/DZAI after all this time! Firstly, make sure that you are using the latest version of A3EAI (0.8.4d) - you probably are, but asking to confirm. A few major versions ago, a change to the A3EAI HC was made to prevent Epoch client code from running at all on it, so the HC isn't subject to hunger/thirst, does not spawn antagonists and cannot be targeted by them, and everything else Epoch-related. The HC object is also immune to damage so I suspect something else is killing the HC by other means.

If you are using other AI addons that use HC, they may not block off Epoch code like A3EAI does. In this case, test with only A3EAI HC to make sure that the problem is with A3EAI.

[bigsl83]

It's the best one so no brainer :-)

Yes, I'm using the latest A3EAI v0.8.4d. Great to know about the change to the hunger/thirst, thx. I'm also using an additional HC for the VEMF missions.

I'll test it with just one HC for A3EAI and see what happens. Thanks for the post Face and have a good one!

[NEW] Added "detect only" behavior modes for UAVs and UGVs. If set to "detect only", UAVs/UVGs will not directly engage detected targets, but may still call air reinforcements to the area.

This is a great new function, but is it possible to set UGV in defense mode so UGV will not directly engage tagets at sight but fire back if a player attack the UGV?

[Axle]

Tried this today as Andre convoy was throwing lots of BE kicks. Smooth install, no kicks. I do enjoy that they do not show on the map. Also they are fully lootable and females with them too! Kinda felt like I was fighting another player. Thanks for the work!

I'm thinking of implementing something like this. Something similar is also planned for air patrols, but I'm currently working on another addon so this will take some time.

Thanks for the feedback! Immersion is definitely something that I believe is important.

Nailed it!

Good news for me ;) ...and take the time you need, you're doing a good job!

[bigsl83]

So I've tried disabling the secondary headless client completely and still the one HC is being killed somehow. It reconnects but for several minutes the performance will dip until it reconnects. HC server itself is running fine. I'll keep messing with it and post any pertinent findings.

Hey Face! I have been a loyal fan and follower of your mods since the beginning of DZAI. In v.2.1.0 pre-release 4, you removed the FreeForAll mode, which made two different factions, essentially.  I have been combing over the A3EAI files for HOURS and am wondering if it is even possible to create a 2nd faction?

I found this bit in A3EAI_functions.sqf and am wondering if there is a case switch or something that could be added?

//Sets Side
A3EAI_setSide = compileFinal '
	private["_unitGroup","_protect","_unitType"];
	_unit = _this select 0;
	_unitLevel = _this select 1;
	_skillTypeArray = ["aimingAccuracy","aimingShake","aimingSpeed","spotDistance","spotTime","courage","reloadSpeed","commanding","general"];
	{
		_unit setSide [_skillTypeArray select _forEachIndex,((_x select 1) + random ((_x select 2)-(_x select 1))) min 1];
	} forEach _skillArray;
';

Truth be told, I know very little coding, but I guess my first question is: is it possible or am I wasting my time?  Hell, at this point, I would be willing to donate again just to get a small snippet of code to add in. *wink*

Truly, though, thank you for your time, effort, and expertise in what you add to the community. I wish I had skills like you, Axle, AWOL, and the rest of the crew. We are very grateful.

[Face]

It's not possible for more than one AI faction in Epoch, since the West and East factions are both used by players, one per gender. In DayZ Mod this was possible since players were all West, so you could use East and Resistance. The fourth faction (Civilian) should be avoided at all costs for making combat AI since making them hostile or killing them has all sorts of consequences, as many "neutral" objects in the game are considered Civilian side.

Just FYI, the reason why FFA mode was removed in DZAI was because it was becoming more common for servers to run DZAI along with other AI mission addons, and having FFA mode would cause mission AI to attack each other as well. It's unfortunate because I always preferred to play-test with it on.

[Karmafied]

Aw... total bummer. Well, thanks so much for your prompt reply; I am sure you saved me many more hours that would've resulted in nothing.  And thanks again for such a great addon!

Update: " many "neutral" objects in the game are considered Civilian side."   ...Does this mean that the current AI would be shooting/destroying items/objects that are categorized as Civilian? That sounds awesome!!

 

[Face]

If AI are made hostile to Civilian: They'll begin shooting buildings and random items ingame. AI will become permanently stuck on engaging Civilian objects, or until the object is destroyed and moves onto the next one.

If players are made hostile to Civilian: Players will be unable to interact with Civilian objects. Don't remember the specifics since I've never seen this firsthand.

Long story short: You basically bug out the AI behaviors when messing around with Civilian for combat purposes.

Also glad you're enjoying A3EAI. Another update is in the works and hopefully releasing soon.

[Karmafied]

Thanks for clarifying, Face. Also, let me sincerely apologize for my comments/questions as I *just* noticed your signature link regarding Denied Feature Requests. Sorry :(  Now I'm *that* girl.

I do have one final question, though, which the information in your DFR page sparked.

On my private server, it is only me, my brother and my Dad. If we all played Male characters, would it be possible to recode the female gender to be a different faction? Simply put, is it possible for someone who isn't a BI-level coder?

[Face]

You would have to redefine the female units to the same side as the male units in Epoch's CfgVehicles. I'm not all that familiar with client-sided matters so that's all the details I can give without risking giving wrong information, but some side effect of this is that males will be able to wear female uniforms (and "become" female) and vice versa, and you will have to play with verifySignatures disabled (set to 0), which would not be a problem if it's a closed-off server with only trusted people.

[Karmafied]

Face, what can I say. You are brilliant. Thinking outside the box like a good coder.

It took me FOREVER but I found this inside the config.bin of Epoch.

 

    class B_Soldier_base_F;
    class Epoch_Female_base_F: B_Soldier_base_F
    {
        identityTypes[] = {"Woman","NoGlasses"};
        faceType = "Man_A3";
        woman = 1;
        side = 1;

As well as:

 class O_Soldier_base_F;
    class Epoch_Man_base_F: O_Soldier_base_F
    {
        identityTypes[] = {"Kerry","NoGlasses"};
        faceType = "Man_A3";
        side = 0;

 

So I am assuming that means if I change the Female's side to 0 that should accomplish what you mentioned. However, there will still require a case switch inside an A3EAI spawn setup file, correct?

[Face]

You would also need to change the side relations in A3EAI_initserver.sqf and  A3EAI_serverMonitor.sqf depending on which side you're planning on using. You'll also need to do some scripting and modifications to the A3EAI files to allow for different sides to be used for AI groups.

I'm currently working on two addons (A3EAI and one other) so the help I can give is limited.

I am intrigued, whats the second addon :)

[Face]

It's not related to Epoch, but for another mod similar to it.

[simon1603]

Understood, I hope that you are able to keep A3AI alive and kicking.

A3EAI has been updated to version 0.9.0. Update at: https://github.com/dayzai/A3EAI

Please note that just about every component of A3EAI needs to be updated. As usual, headless client and client addon update is only required if your server actually uses them.

Changelog:

[Added] Dynamic classname feature can now be enabled/disabled for each AI level.
[Added] AI inventory gear purge on collision kill can now be enabled or disabled.
[Added] Admins can now set probability of successfully adding uniform/backpack/vest/headgear per AI level. If probability check fails for uniform and/or vest, default fresh spawn clothing and/or side pack will be added instead.
[Added] Added "defensive aggression" behavior for AI UAVs/UGVs if detect-only behavior is enabled. If UAVs/UGVs in detect-only mode are fired on, they will become hostile to nearby targets for a limited time.
[Added] A 750m radius blacklist area is now automatically added around HC player object.
[Added] Hostility is now temporarily disabled for manned/unmanned AI vehicles while they pass through player spawning areas and blacklisted waypoints.
[Added] Added settings verification for client-side addon.
[Fixed] Spawn chance was unintentionally applied to custom infantry AI spawns.
[Fixed] Fixed issue where players already detected by helicopters could not trigger a helicopter paradrop event.
[Fixed] AI air vehicles, UAVs/UGVs in non-hostile state will no longer detect players. (But may still call for reinforcements or deploy a paradrop group).
[Changed] Changed default maximum spawn chance threshold to 10 online players (reduced from 20).
[Changed] Changed default weapon attachment (optics, pointer, suppressor, underbarrel launcher) probabilities for level 0/1/2/3 AI from 25%/50%/75% to 30%/60%/90%.
[Changed] Fatigue now disabled for AI units.
[Changed] Loot for dynamic AI is now generated at once rather than gradually over time.
[Changed] Loot generation rate for all AI (other than dynamic) is now fixed at one attempt per 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds.
[Changed] Delay between radio messages changed from 5 to 10 seconds. (Air reinforcement notifications are exempt)
[Changed] Players in trader areas and fresh-spawn areas now immune from triggering AI helicopter detection and paradrop events.
[Changed] Radio messages now display for players if at least one group member has a Radio (Instead of at least one vehicle crew member)
[Changed] Default detection probability for UAVs/UGVs increased from 50% to 80%.

One thing I have noticed about the bomber UAV's, I believe they are the cas variants, is they are incapable of dropping bombs anywhere near players or their vehicles.

I think this is due to the target needing to be marked with a third party laser designator I suspect there is no way of making the UAV fully autonomous in this respect but I thought I would throw it out there just in case.

The Scalpel missile armed variant is very op so I do not use this one but it would be nice to have a bomber.

The other option I have tried to implement is using UAV's to call in a heli paradrop when detecting a player but I have not succeeded in getting this to happen using the configs, is this because paradrops are only triggered on waypoints ?

The UAVs work on the same principle as the AI helicopters: Arrive at a destination, then move in low and slow for a certain distance while scanning for nearby players, then leave the area while returning to normal flying height and speed. "Always-on" detection is not used due to performance concerns, since 99% of the time there are no players nearby as UAVs/helis travel between waypoint to waypoint.

As the config comments say, the UAVs/UGVs are still very much a work and progress and their roles/purpose still aren't clearly defined. The eventual goal is to let UAVs/UGVs work with infantry AI as a team.

Hey Face, in the config.sqf, is it possible to add a 2nd version of the spawn parameters so we can spawn two types of area in the same area?

A3EAI_minAI_city = 1;
A3EAI_addAI_city = 2;
A3EAI_unitLevel_city = 3;
A3EAI_spawnChance_city = 0.60;

A3EAI_minAI_city = 1;
A3EAI_addAI_city = 5;
A3EAI_unitLevel_city = 0;
A3EAI_spawnChance_city = 0.99;

[Face]

Not possible.
