What AI Mission System are you using ?

whats _this defined as ? You need to make a crate using _this variable

i have that i just did not add the whole box script just the contents because i know that somthing in there is not allowing it to spawn, i have 5 others just like that script that work fine, its just the contents, im thinking class names maybe wrong but i can't find a thing about them.

[Kidney]

if this will help i will post the whole script:

 

Edit: Im a derp and posted the wrong script.

 

here is the right one.

 

 

if (isServer) then {


        _vehicle_99 = objNull;
        
        if (true) then
        {
          _this = createVehicle ["SpecialWeaponsBox", [14220.2,14143.6,13.5276], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
          _vehicle_99 = _this;
          _this setDir 20;
          _this setVariable ["permaLoot",true];

          clearWeaponCargoGlobal _this;
          clearMagazineCargoGlobal _this;

          
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["CinderBlocks", 100];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Metal_Floor_Kit", 25];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Wood_Ramp_Kit",2"];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Cinder_Wall_Kit",20];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Metal_Panel_Kit",10];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Fuel_Pump_Kit",2];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["M240_Nest_Kit",1];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Wooden_Shed_Kit",4];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["BagFenceRound_DZ_kit",5];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemWire", 10];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemCorrugated", 20];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemGenerator", 2];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemSandbag", 50];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemTankTrap", 5];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["PartGeneric", 50];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["30m_plot_kit", 5];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["MortarBucket", 50];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemMixOil", 10];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["PartFueltank",10];
          _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["PartWheel",10];

If the classnames were wrong then atleast the box would spawn.

I added the wrong script sorry, i just edited the one above to the right one.

Use Notepad++ with the sqf extension plugin (can be found on armaholic)
You'll see that the problem is in line 3.

 _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Wood_Ramp_Kit",2"];

should be

 _this addMagazineCargoGlobal ["Wood_Ramp_Kit",2];

How did I not know about this? thanks very much this addon will help me ten fold.

 

I have one more question?

Sorry Im still a noob :(

 

These 9 items below I would like to have spawn in my custom box, anyone know the correct class names for each object below?

Ive looked everywhere but the dayz class names seem to be the hardest to find out.

 

For example I see the metal floors named  "metal_floor_kit" or "Metalfloor_DZ" or close to it, how is one to know witch is the correct?

 

 metal_floor_kit

 wood_ramp_kit

 cinder_wall_kit

 metal_panel_kit

 fuel_pump_kit

 m240_nest_kit

 wooden_shed_kit

 BagFenceRound_DZ_kit

 30m_plot_kit

 

Hope someone has some insite to my problem.

Thanks again.

Take a look at this for the classnames.
