Help making this script

[juandayz]

Hello im working on PlotSecure system... its about launch an alarm sound when enemy players enter in a plot area.

basically this work like: If owner && plot friend... then disallow alarm sound ---if  is in plot area and !no ower && !no plotfriend then launch alarm sound.

but, dsnto work yet. any idea?

I made the call from init.sqf   IF is dedicated section:

Spoiler

//plotsecure//
[] execVM 'custom\script\plotsecur\init_plotsecur.sqf';

in my custom variables.sqf

Spoiler

dayz_resetSelfActions = {

s_player_stopalarm = -1;
   s_player_startalarm = -1;

in init_plotsecur.sqf

Spoiler

msg = false;

  while {true} do {
    private ["_pos","_location","_inRange","_trigger"];
    
    _trigger = ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"];
    _pos = getPosATL player;
    _location = (nearestObjects [_pos, _trigger, 5]);
    _inRange = count _location > 0;

        
    if  (_inRange) then {
        if (!msg) then {
            cutText ['Plot Area. ScrollMenu ProximityON/OF', 'PLAIN'];
            msg = true;
        };
    } else { msg = false; };

    if (_inRange) then {
    
        if (s_player_startalert < 0) then { s_player_startalert = player addaction [("<t color=""#0074E8"">" + ("ProximityON") +"</t>"),"custom\script\plotsecur\startalert.sqf","",5,false,true,"",""]; };
        if (s_player_stopalert < 0) then {    s_player_stopalert = player addaction [("<t color=""#0074E8"">" + ("ProximityOFF") +"</t>"),"custom\script\plotsecur\stopalert.sqf","",5,false,true,"",""]; };
    } else {
        player removeAction s_player_stopalert;
        player removeAction s_player_startalert;
        s_player_stopalert = -1;
        s_player_startalert = -1;
        
    };
    sleep 2;
};

startalert.sqf

//alert Stop

Heres another way:

init.sqf  IS DEDICATED SECTION:

Spoiler

//plotsecure//
[] execVM 'custom\script\plotsecur\startalarm.sqf';

startalarm.sqf

Spoiler

 

private ["_position","_trigger","_nearestPole","_playerUID","_ownerID","_friendlies","_soundSource_3"]

//DEFINE TRIGGER//
_position = getPosATL player;
_trigger = count nearestObjects [_position, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 30] > 0;
//END TRIGGER//

//DEFINE OWNER AND PLOT FRIENDS//
_findNearestPole = [];
_nearestPole = _findNearestPole select 0;
_ownerID = _nearestPole getVariable ["CharacterID","0"];
_friendlies        = player getVariable ["friendlyTo",[]];
//END OF DEFINES//

//START CHECK CONDITIONS//

    //plotarea/AND/isOwner///isFriendly// show succes text //////
if (_trigger && _ownerID && _friendlies ) exitWith {
    cutText [format["Proximity Warning Succes."], "PLAIN DOWN"];};

    
    //Plotarea//AND/NotOwner/And/NotFriendly// Spawn Dog Sound!//
if (_trigger && !_ownerID && !_friendlies) then {

    _soundSource_3 = objNull;
    if (true) then
    {
    _soundSource_3 = createSoundSource ["Sound_BadDog", position player, [], 0];
    };

};

take a look at the script where you can put a invisible "bubble" around your base, and players cant enter it.  You could use that as a guide to help you.

this might help too

use the plot management array

[juandayz]

well duke, i was trying in diferents way. Last try i removed every thing about chek owners and friendlys... and sounds dsnt play. i think i have a error in parameters who create the sound.

tried to call a sound trigger, and call sound trought description.ext but nothing.

this is my last try whit out owners and friends check

Spoiler

private ["_position","_trigger"," _soundSource "]

//DEFINE TRIGGER//
_position = getPosATL player;
_trigger = count nearestObjects [_position, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 30] > 0;
//END TRIGGER//

if (_trigger) then {

_soundSource = createSoundSource [""Sound_Alarm2"", position player, [], 0]
    sleep 10;
    deleteVehicle _soundSource; //stops alarm

};

Have you looked at this ?

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

 

Example 1:

playSound "soundname"

Example 2:

Start a sound and then stop it after 1.2 second:playSound "AlarmCar"; [] spawn { _sound = ASLToAGL [0,0,0] nearestObject "#soundonvehicle"; sleep 1.2; deleteVehicle _sound; };

Example 3:

Start a sound and wait until it is finished:playSound "Alarm"; hint "Started!"; [] spawn { _sound = ASLToAGL [0,0,0] nearestObject "#soundonvehicle"; waitUntil {isNull _sound}; hint "Finished!"; };

[theduke]

what tech support said

use

playsound "soundname";

then in the description.ext  in 

class CfgSounds

add

class soundname
    {
    name="soundname";
    sound[]={custom\sounds\soundname.ogg,0.9,1};
    titles[] = {};
    };

 

So basically what you are trying to do, i think is have a sound played when someone enters the area? ma i correct?

If so, in the block of code that does the action/script, either warn players or allow them in the area , add

playsound "soundname";

before the end bracket   };

[juandayz]

yep i tryed using description.ext whitout  owner and friendlys checks for this moment. but nothing. tnks duke and tech support. I tryed the same sound and way whit another script that i making, and its work,, so have something wrong in the way of call this script or in the defines area

Spoiler

class CfgSounds
{
    sounds[] =
    {
        Radio_Message_Sound
        
    };
    class Radio_Message_Sound
    {
        name = "Radio_Message_Sound";
        sound[] = {custom\remote\radio.ogg,0.4,1};
        titles[] = {};
    };
    sounds2[] =
    {
    alarm
    };
    class alarm
    {
    name="alarm";
    sound[]={custom\script\plotsecur\alarm.ogg,0.9,1};
    titles[] = {};
    }
};   

alarm.sqf

Spoiler

private ["_position","_trigger"]

//DEFINE TRIGGER//
_position = getPosATL player;
_trigger = count nearestObjects [_position, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 30] > 0;
//END TRIGGER//

if (_trigger) then {

playsound "alarm";

};

 

gonna try call the script whit fn_selfaction.sqf

[juandayz]

Got it.

at bottom of selfaction.sqf

Spoiler

/////////////plot alarm//
private["_playerPos","_restricted"];

_playerPos = getPosATL player;
_restricted = count nearestObjects [_playerPos, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 3] > 0;
 
if (_restricted) then {
        if (s_player_alarm < 0) then {
            s_player_alarm = player addaction[("<t color=""#00C732"">" + ("StartAlarm") +"</t>"),"custom\script\plotsecur\alarm.sqf"];
        };
    } else {
        player removeAction s_player_alarm;
        s_player_alarm = -1;
    };
/////////////////

alarm.sqf

Spoiler

private ["_playerPos","_restricted"]

call gear_ui_init;
_playerPos = getPosATL player;
_restricted= count nearestObjects [_playerPos, ["Plastic_Pole_EP1_DZ"], 4] > 0;

 

if (_restricted) then
    {
    playsound "alarm";
    sleep 2;
    cutText ["Youre in a private area", "PLAIN DOWN"];
};

 

now, i gonna try make it works  only if palyer is enemy of plot
