[HELP] Need help tweaking my deploy script a little bit.

DangerRuss · February 23, 2015

Im using a version of right click deploy bike script, making use of maca's right click system. Anyways I'm trying to do 2 things.

1. Im trying to allow an interrupt which will cancel the build when the player moves. For example if the player is deploying the bike and gets shot at and needs to cancel the build.

2. Currently my deploy script nicely places the bike in front of you. But I have seen servers which attach the buildable to the player, and allows the player to move the buildable into position before placing it.

Obviously the 2 would have to work together, so that moving to place the buildable doesn't cancel the build until you've actually started to build it.

Here is my current deploy script.

_weapons = [currentWeapon player] + (weapons player) + (magazines player);
closeDialog 0;

_toolbox = "ItemToolbox" in _weapons;

if (!_toolbox) then {
    cutText [format["Missing Toolbox"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
} else {
    player removeAction s_player_deploybike;
    player playActionNow "Medic";
    r_interrupt = false;
	player removeWeapon "ItemToolbox";
    	_dis=10;
    	_sfx = "repair";
    	[player,_sfx,0,false,_dis] call dayz_zombieSpeak;
    	[player,_dis,true,(getPosATL player)] spawn player_alertZombies;
 
   	 sleep 6;
	_Offset = [0,5,0]; //change how far from player vehicle spawns
	_worldPos = player modelToWorld _Offset; // spawn in front of player
    _object = "MMT_USMC" createVehicle (_worldPos);
   	_object setVariable ["ObjectID", "1", true];
   	_object setVariable ["ObjectUID", "1", true];
	_object setVariable ["Deployed", "1", true];
 	_degrees = getDir player;
	_object setDir _degrees;
   	 player reveal _object;
 
    	cutText [format["Here's your bike you lazy bum!"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
   	 r_interrupt = false;
   	 player switchMove "";
   	 player playActionNow "stop";
 
    	sleep 10;
 
   	 cutText [format["Warning: Spawned bikes DO NOT SAVE after server restart! If you wish to keep it - deconstruct it!"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
 
	
};

Here is an example of what Im talking about. Although I dont want to use the EVD script which he is using and has modified.

Thanks for any help!

SideShowFreak · February 25, 2015

the deploy anything script is the one that allows you to move the object then place it. you can incorporate any scripts from Macca's script in it as well (instructions included). You can also do many,many deployables/buildables etc as well, with variables for plot pole requirement or not, re-packable or not, save to DB or not, etc etc. Personally it suits my needs/wants much better. I would highly suggest trying it.

You could also possibly look through his code to see how the spawning/attaching works as well if it doesn't interest you.

Honestly once you use it its a much better package for right clickables and for deploying anything.

DangerRuss · February 25, 2015

I guess I can't knock it until Ive tried it, but it seems like an overcomplicated abundance of code for my simple needs. I have 4 deployable options and its much less code in my mission file. I'll have a peak through this and see if I can figure it out, but really Im only interested in the ability to cancel and move the object before deployment. Removing ammo, saving to the database, etc. is just extra stuff I dont need.

Also I have another script that uses the scroll wheel and utilizes the _vehicle attachTo

but Im really interested in just modifying my existing script.

If anyone could help me that'd be fantastic

Here is an interupt code taken from Trading script

For Attaching, just use

_object attachTo player;

DangerRuss · February 26, 2015

I do like the control the deploy anything script gives you, being able to move it like you're base building, however it breaks the extra_rc.hpp for some reason and I have the set view distance option in that which isn't an actual script so I can't call it in the deploy anything script. I'll play around with both and see what happens. Thanks.

Here is an interupt code taken from Trading script

For Attaching, just use

_object attachTo player;

This cancels the build but doesn't stop the animation which is what I was really going for.

Perhaps I added the attachTo incorrectly but there is no visual of the bike until after it has been deployed, so you can't see where you're placing it.

Gr8 · February 26, 2015

Put

_object attachTo player;

above

player reveal _object;

DangerRuss · March 2, 2015

btw I was screwing around with this and you still can't see the bike until its deployed. the script is missing something that shows the bike attached to you. It just starts building right away, you dont get the option to move it and then deploy it.

SchwEde · March 2, 2015

It is just doing what you have scripted ;)

there is no command for the script to wait till the player got everything done before deploying:

Try somehting like this:

_weapons = [currentWeapon player] + (weapons player) + (magazines player);

_toolbox = "ItemToolbox" in _weapons;

if (!_toolbox) then {
    cutText [format["Missing Toolbox"], "PLAIN DOWN"];

Without trying this right away I see this

//press space to proceed
waitUntil {DZE_5};

what about if Im not running this on epoch/overpoch?

SchwEde · March 2, 2015

well then you need to use use a custom dayz_spaceinterrupt.sqf (located in dayZ_code/actions)

and define your own key to deploy the bike: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/DIK_KeyCodes

then you can add something like this in it:

if (_dikCode == 0x39) then {
	deploybike = true;
};

and replace the DZE_5 variable with the deploybike variable.

also you should add at the top of your deploybike script every variable on the default value, like deploybike on false, just to keep the RPT nice and clean

I think my compiles.sqf handles the dik codes I'll have to check. I'll play with this some more later.

Not sure what you mean about the variables at the top, although I dont think I get any rpt errors from these

SchwEde · March 2, 2015

just so you dont have any undefined variables before the first start, just in case.

Also this will reset the variable on start, so you wont have any conflicts on second deployment

yea thats a bit beyond my know-how though.

DangerRuss · March 3, 2015

if I was going to change that to a dik code though, it wouldn't be a variable correct?

DangerRuss · March 3, 2015

Im just not sure/unable to tie in all of this information you're giving me because I dont understand how to code :-\

for example where in the script do I define the dik code and do I somehow attach it to that DZE_5 variable or w/e I choose to name it?

For example in my compiles.sqf this is the dik code for DZGM

		if (_dikCode == 0xDB) then {
		if (tagName) then {tagName = false;titleText ["Group name tags OFF","PLAIN DOWN"];titleFadeOut 4;} else {tagName = true;titleText ["Group name tags ON","PLAIN DOWN"];titleFadeOut 4;};
		_handled = true;
		};

I just dont know how to put it all together.

SchwEde · March 4, 2015

ok i will try to explain this with my broken english as good as i can ^^

on this page:

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/DIK_KeyCodes

you've got every key defined with a dikcode:

e.g.

0x39 = Space

0xDB = Left Win_key

so you just need to choose a key which will then needs to be pressed to deploy the bike.

then in your dayz_spaceinterrupt.sqf you simply add some code which look something like this:

if (_dikCode == 0x39) then {
    deploybike = true;
};

see you need to press space to set the variable deploybike to true.

you can call this vairable whatever you want! deploybike, DZE_5, dangerbike, oldbikeruss, etc

only thing you need to keep in mind is to name the same variable in the deploybike.sqf which it should be waiting for, till the key was pressed.

so the code should be working like this:

start code
define variable to false which should be waiting for
check for toolbox
spawn the bike
attach to player
wait till the variable (deploybike, DZE_5 or whatever) will be set to true, through pressing the key you have defined
do the animations
send some text
deploy bike
done

Also i think you need to add a delete vehicle option if the animation process is not finished or else players could just start the process, but if they interrupt it, they would still got the bike attached to them ^^

Ok this makes some more sense but what Im confused about, is defining that variable DZE_5 or whatever I name it. How will the script know what DZE_5 is? The script says wait for DZE_5, but the spaceinterrupt doesn't mention DZE_5 whatsoever. So how does the script know that waiting for DZE_5 to set to true = spawn the bike.

Or are you saying that in the space interrupt

if (_dikCode == 0x39) then {
    deploybike = true;
};

deploybike is the variable and needs to be the same in the deploy bike script?

Scroll wheel option appears, nothing happens when you press deploy.

No server RPT errors, gonna check client RPT.

Client RPT has this error but its intermixed with an autorefuel error so idk if its related

almost!

you define a variable in the spaceinterrupt, then you let the deploy bike wait for this variable to become true.

so if you have this:

if (_dikCode == 0x39) then {
		deploybike = true;
		};

then you need to have the variable "deploybike" in your deploy bike script and not DZE_5 ;)

DangerRuss · March 5, 2015

I apologize for copy pasting the wrong code earlier.

I do indeed have that variable in the script and the script does not work.

No bike deploys when you press the option.

deploybike = false; //or whatever you would like to call this variable ;)

_weapons = [currentWeapon player] + (weapons player) + (magazines player);

closeDialog 0;


_toolbox = "ItemToolbox" in _weapons;

if (!_toolbox) then {
    cutText [format["Missing Toolbox"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
} else {
	_Offset = [0,5,0]; //change how far from player vehicle spawns
	_worldPos = player modelToWorld _Offset; // spawn in front of player
    _object = "Old_bike_TK_INS_EP1" createVehicle (_worldPos);
   	_object setVariable ["ObjectID", "1", true];
   	_object setVariable ["ObjectUID", "1", true];
	_object setVariable ["Deployed", "1", true];
	_object attachTo player;
 	_degrees = getDir player;
	_object setDir _degrees;
	player removeAction s_player_deploybike;
    
    r_interrupt = false;
	//press space to proceed
	waitUntil {deploybike};
	
	player playActionNow "Medic";
	cutText ["\n\nDeploying vehicle started... Move from current position to cancel", "PLAIN DOWN"];


		[1,1] call dayz_HungerThirst;
		player playActionNow "Medic";

		[player,"repair",0,false] call dayz_zombieSpeak;
		[player,50,true,(getPosATL player)] spawn player_alertZombies;

		r_interrupt = false;
		_animState = animationState player;
		r_doLoop = true;
		_started = false;
		_finished = false;

		while {r_doLoop} do {
			_animState = animationState player;
			_isMedic = ["medic",_animState] call fnc_inString;
			if (_isMedic) then {
				_started = true;
			};
			if (_started and !_isMedic) then {
				r_doLoop = false;
				_finished = true;
			};
			if (r_interrupt) then {
				r_doLoop = false;
			};
			sleep 0.1;
		};
		r_doLoop = false;
		
	if (_finished) then {
    
	player removeWeapon "ItemToolbox";
    	_dis=10;
    	_sfx = "repair";
    	[player,_sfx,0,false,_dis] call dayz_zombieSpeak;

};

Ok, im going to script it for you then and see what I can do to get this done

SchwEde · March 6, 2015

here you go:

DZE_5 = false; //or whatever you would like to call this variable ;)

_weapons = [currentWeapon player] + (weapons player) + (magazines player);

closeDialog 0;


_toolbox = "ItemToolbox" in _weapons;

if (!_toolbox) then {
		cutText [format["Missing Toolbox"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
	} else {
		_Offset = [0,5,0]; //change how far from player vehicle spawns
		_worldPos = player modelToWorld _Offset; // spawn in front of player
		_object = "Old_bike_TK_INS_EP1" createVehicle (_worldPos);
		_object setVariable ["ObjectID", "1", true];
		_object setVariable ["ObjectUID", "1", true];
		_object setVariable ["Deployed", "1", true];
		_object attachTo [player,[-0.2, 5, 1]];		

		waitUntil {DZE_5};
		
		player playActionNow "Medic";
		cutText ["\n\nDeploying vehicle started... Move from current position to cancel", "PLAIN DOWN"];


			[1,1] call dayz_HungerThirst;
			player playActionNow "Medic";

			[player,"repair",0,false] call dayz_zombieSpeak;
			[player,50,true,(getPosATL player)] spawn player_alertZombies;

			r_interrupt = false;
			_animState = animationState player;
			r_doLoop = true;
			_started = false;
			_finished = false;

			while {r_doLoop} do {
				_animState = animationState player;
				_isMedic = ["medic",_animState] call fnc_inString;
				if (_isMedic) then {
					_started = true;
				};
				if (_started and !_isMedic) then {
					r_doLoop = false;
					_finished = true;
				};
				if (r_interrupt) then {
					r_doLoop = false;
				};
				sleep 0.1;
			};
			r_doLoop = false;
			
		if (_finished) then {
		
		player removeWeapon "ItemToolbox";
			_dis=10;
			_sfx = "repair";
			[player,_sfx,0,false,_dis] call dayz_zombieSpeak;
			[player,_dis,true,(getPosATL player)] spawn player_alertZombies;
	 
			detach _object;
		 
	 
			cutText [format["Here's your bike you lazy bum!"], "PLAIN DOWN"];
		 r_interrupt = false;
		 player switchMove "";
		 player playActionNow "stop";
	 
		sleep 10;
		//this way every player will get the message from a deployed bike
		_object addEventHandler ["GetIn",{

			}];
		
	 
		
		}
		else {
		cutText ["\n\nCanceled deploying vehicle", "PLAIN DOWN"];
		};
};

test it and customize it to your likings

DangerRuss · March 6, 2015

Works, you're the man Schwede!

I do have some slight concerns because the script doesn't appear to be designed for the scroll wheel, which is how Im using it. It doesn't seem to have anywhere that removes the action from the scroll wheel. I'll have to test further to see if this is an issue. In my original script

if (false) then {
    cutText [format["You are in combat and cannot build a 350z."], "PLAIN DOWN"];
} else {
    player removeAction s_player_350z;
    closeDialog 602;
    player removeWeapon "ItemToolbox";
	player removeMagazine "PartEngine";
    player removeMagazine "PartGeneric";
    player playActionNow "Medic";

Also, if you move to cancel, it doesn't remove the bike from your player lol :P

you can however repack it, which gives you a toolbox. So if you place your toolbox in your backpack, you can get infinite toolboxes :)

[HELP] Need help tweaking my deploy script a little bit.
