ATM Icons on Map

[DrScandalous]

Would it be possible to add ATM locators on the map? So wherever the server owner places an ATM, it'll automatically show up on the map? Even if it's just a colored dot....

You could add map markers to your mission file? You can get the coords out of the config.cpp

[DrScandalous]

So there's no way to essentially link the ATM locations to create markers, like the dynamic traders do?

Not that i have found out, but i'm still learning and don't know everything. Maybe someone else will chime in

I'm sure there's a way to do it with a script.

private["_ATM"];

_ATM = ["ATM_covered", "ATM_uncovered", "Phonebooth_clean", "Phonebooth_tagged"];  //NOT actual classnames

forEach "_ATM" do {

"some cool code to get all the ATM positions on the map";

createMarker ["ATM" , ["_xposATM","_yposATM"]];
setMarkerShape "ICON";
setMarketType "DOT";
};

I'm no coder, but that's the basic idea.  Should be doable.

Why not spawn your players with a portable ATM?

I think that is just too overkill, you want people to have to leave base to go do things.

I used

{
    _obj = str _x;
    if ({(_obj find _x) != -1} count ["atm_01_f.p3d","phonebooth_01_f.p3d","phonebooth_02_f.p3d","atm_02_f.p3d"] > 0) then {
        _marker = createMarkerLocal [_obj, position _x];
        _marker setMarkerShapeLocal "ICON";
        _marker setMarkerTypeLocal "mil_dot";
        _marker setMarkerColorLocal "ColorGreen";
        _marker setMarkerSizeLocal [0.7,0.7];
    };
} count nearestObjects[player, [], (worldName call BIS_fnc_mapSize)];

to make some maps, seen in the editor, but I imagine you could adapt this to make it work on a players map on the server.

 

Note: this only works where the atms/phonebooths are included on the default map (i.e. Altis) and won't work on custom ones added.

i done it like this

 

//Elektro

_this = createMarker ["atm3", [8168.665, 9027.165, -0.072704464]];

_this setMarkerText "ATM";

_this setMarkerType "Dot";

_this setMarkerBrush "Solid";

_marker_1300 = _this;

 

//Guglovo

_this = createMarker ["ATM2", [5759.5435, 7466.9927, -0.069170587]];

_this setMarkerText "ATM";

_this setMarkerType "Dot";

_this setMarkerBrush "Solid";

_marker_1700 = _this;

 

place this in your init

[] execVM "Buildings\markers.sqf";

Warning if you do this with all the icons now on the 0.3 release map your map will be a clutterfest.... Would be cooler if there was code that would add things to a personal map if you came across them - say the maps empty at the start of a fresh spawn but as you locate things they add markers on such as traders and atms. Or if it was optional for players to remove certain icons from their map if they didn't want the clutter
