[RELEASE] Custom Debug Monitor

[Chino]

THANK YOU FOR READING.

This debug is very similar to one offered by a service. After so long, I armed my own Latin American server. I had everything in place as wanted, but something was missing .. I was missing the debug.

I've been looking for various topics, several forums, or maybe if there was someone who could share it with the community, and I have not succeeded. So why (besides being a beginner) I read about how.

I will come to share that secure more than one (like me) you are looking for.

 

THESE ARE THE STEPS.

Step 1) Go to your "MPMissions" folder, then "DayZ_Epoch_11.Chernarus" (or as your folder is called). If you have a folder named "Custom" in there create a folder called "Debug" and create a file with the following custom_monitor.sqf in and keep within it.

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 if (isNil "debugMonitor") then { debugMonitor = false; };
        if (debugMonitor) then {
            debugMonitor = false;
            hintSilent "";
        } else {
    debugMonitor = true;
private["_time","_hours","_minutes","_restartTime"];

/************************* CONFIG *************************/
    _restartTime = 180; //total time before server restart (3hrs = 180 minutes)    
/************************* CONFIG *************************/

while {debugMonitor} do {

_time = (round(_restartTime-(serverTime)/60));     //Want it to count up instead of down? use _time = (round serverTime)/60;
    _hours = (floor(_time/60));
    _minutes = (_time - (_hours * 60));
    
    switch(_minutes) do
    {
        case 9: {_minutes = "09"};
        case 8: {_minutes = "08"};
        case 7: {_minutes = "07"};
        case 6: {_minutes = "06"};
        case 5: {_minutes = "05"};
        case 4: {_minutes = "04"};
        case 3: {_minutes = "03"};
        case 2: {_minutes = "02"};
        case 1: {_minutes = "01"};
        case 0: {_minutes = "00"};
    };

//Define imagen
_pic = (gettext (configFile >> 'CfgVehicles' >> (typeof vehicle player) >> 'picture'));

if (player == vehicle player) then

{

_pic = (gettext (configFile >> 'cfgWeapons' >> (currentWeapon player) >> 'picture'));

}

else

{

_pic = (gettext (configFile >> 'CfgVehicles' >> (typeof vehicle player) >> 'picture'));

};
//Fin imagen

Step 2) Within the "Debug" folder create another debug_init.sqf file with the following.

 

  Reveal hidden contents

if (isnil "debuginit") then {debuginit = true;};

    if (debuginit) then
    {
        []spawn
        {
            private["_veh", "_idb", "_idb2"];
            _idb = -1;
            while {alive player} do
            {
                if (_idb == -1) then
                {
                    _idb = (vehicle player) addaction [("<t color=""#ff0000"">" + ("Toggle debug") +"</t>"),"custom\debug\custom_monitor.sqf","",0,false,true,"",""];
                    _veh = vehicle player;
                };
                if (_veh != vehicle player) then
                {
                    _veh removeAction _idb;
                    _idb = -1;      
                };
                Sleep 2;
            };
        };
        debuginit = false;
    };
    waituntil {!alive player ; sleep 2;};
    debuginit = true;

IMPORTANT: This debug is hidden by mouse wheel. Since doing so by a key is broken.

Step 3) Go to your "init.sqf" and go to the bottom of everything and paste the following.

  Reveal hidden contents

// Debug Monitor
[] execVM "custom\debug\debug_init.sqf";
[] execVM "custom\debug\custom_monitor.sqf";

If all goes well, when you open the server will see the debug so. View image. :)

Well, I hope you like it. It's my first "edition" you could say, so try to do it the best way. I hope to move forward and continue sharing.
Many thanks to user "Juandayz" for all the support he gave me.
See you soon!

So just one question! Does this spam with errors in RPT files, like the old ones?

to not get rpt errors "wrong element null"  just called from init.sqf but into  if (!isDedicated) then {  section.

Sorry but this debug monitor is VERY similar to the one by noxicarius on his Github. Have you adapted parts of his code and not given credit where credit is DUE?

Check the similarities between this guys "custom_monitor.sqf" and noxicarius'debug_monitor.sqf" file on his Github

https://github.com/noxsicarius/Custom-Debug-Monitor/blob/master/custom/debug_monitor/debug_monitor.sqf

I really do think you need to come clean and at least give the guy some credit for using part of their code. Im sure its part of the forum rules that if any part of someone elses code is used, credit MUST be given where it is due.

[juandayz]

@leegreaves all debugs are similars, then i think when you make a debug you need get credits to all peoples who make one of this in the past :D

for example in this case, Chino needs to get credits to noxicarius, bigg egg, thejoker,, and 3 or more guys :) .. cuz this debug had a lot of pieces of anothers debugs
