Safes, tents and plotpoles.

[ElDubya]

Hi all, 

 

Just wondering what I have to alter to make it a requirement to have a plotpole to place safes and tents down? I have 

DZE_requireplot = 1;

enabled on the server, but people can still dot the landscape with safes and plotpoles, and I want to remove that option.

 

Thanks

it is not implemented, that theye items require a plotpole. you would need to alter the code for placing tents and safes to achieve this.

You would need to change the .hpp files to requireplot = 1 instead of 0.

wouldnt it be easier to define an array in player_build with items which require a pole instead of including new configs?

 

 

EDIT: Something like this:

 

player_build.sqf

 

search for

_requireplot = DZE_requireplot;
if(isNumber (configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> _classname >> "requireplot")) then {
        _requireplot = getNumber(configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> _classname >> "requireplot");
};

add after:

 

 

if (_classname in schwedes_requirePlot) then {
_requireplot = 1;
};

in your variables.sqf

search for

DZE_UnLockedStorage = ...

add below

schwedes_requirePlot = ["VaultStorage","VaultStorageLocked","TentStorage","TentStorageDomed","TentStorageDomed2"]; buildings which should require a plot

you can add/remove as many buildings as you want to,

test it tell us the results =)

[ElDubya]

Works great man, cheers :)

[ElDubya]

Is there a script in circulation that limits each player to one plotpole? Like if they go to put another one down, a message pops up telling them they already have a plotpole and can not place another?

[SchwEde]

Yes this can be done. As soon as I got time I will look how to get this done, or someone else will show how in the meantime ^^

[ElDubya]

SchwEde to the rescue! :)

[ElDubya]

Any news on this single plotpole front SchwEde? :)

[SchwEde]

sry totally forgot about this ;D

Will have a look on it today:)

This only can be done with P4L.

the reason should be obvious?

[ElDubya]

Hmm, I don't use P4L, I am using Plot Management :(

[SchwEde]

Is Plot Management setting an owner of the plot?

If so it is possible to get this done with it, otherwise it is easy to exploit, by simply remove this player from the plot and add them after he build his pole back.

[Buck0]

do it for pp4l lots of others will find a use for it

[SchwEde]

will first finish some real life things, then will try to get this done, shouldnt take to long :)

[SchwEde]

ok here it is:

 

For PP4L Users:

 

after the variables

 

_classname

 

is defined place this:

_hasPole = false;
if (_classname == "Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ") then {
_hasPole = [] call Schwedes_Plot_Check;
};

if (_hasPole) exitWith { DZE_ActionInProgress = false; cutText ["You cannot build another Pole!", "PLAIN DOWN"];};

go to your compiles.sqf

 

place this in the !isDedicated Section

Schwedes_Plot_Check =				compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "Path_to\maxplotcheck.sqf";

create a file called maxplotcheck

 

paste this in there and safe everything:

//Author: Schwede 
//Credits: ElDubya
private ["_hasPole","_Pole","_playerUID"];

_playerUID = getPlayerUID player;
//get all the Poles on Map
_Pole = [];
_Pole = [0,0,0] nearEntities [["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 10000000];

{
	//get Owner ID for each Pole
	if ((_x getVariable["OwnerPUID","0"]) == _playerUID) exitWith { _hasPole = true;};
} count _Pole;

_hasPole 

Safe and Done

 

This will allow players only to have one Pole on the Map, but it also could be added an option to have a max number of plots.

Will add this in if you guys want it, till then...wll here you go, a plot pole limitation ;D
