[RELEASE] DZAI [Updated for 1.0.7]

[Relentless]

Hello there,

just want to release DZAI for the new Epoch version. This addon is not made by me. The original author is SnarkIndustries.
Visit his GitHub: https://github.com/SnarkIndustries
Sadly, he is no longer active and also his donation link is suspended, so I can just give some credits.

Special thanks to Salival who updated the addon. I just updated the install instructions, cleaned up the repository a bit
and fixed broken links and paths.

Download and installation is provided on salivals github.

Ugh, cant get this to work...

Is there a line asking the minimum players to be online before any AI apawn?

 

Also, RPT log shows no errors...

Spawn time has been set to 1 second just to see if I can get it to work... :/

[Anhor]

The minimum of players is one (1).

Your RPT should show something like this after someone join:

13:29:36 "[DZAI] DZAI loading completed in 0.529053 seconds."

If not, you do something wrong at the installation.

Posting this here because following the guide for an older version will drive you in circles and being here will hopefully eliminate too many questions about it. Maybe even put in a pull to have it in the repository to start with?

To get coins in ai wallet, you need to edit 2 files

dzai\init\dzai_config.sqf

Spoiler

insert these variables underneath DZAI_humanityGain = 50:

//Amount of money to reward player for killing an AI unit (Default: false)									
DZAI_moneyGain = true;

//If ai_hasMoney=true, this defines what's the max amount of money an AI can hold, this value gets multiplied by 10, means if ai_moneyAmount=3000 the maximum amount an AI can hold is 30000
DZAI_moneyAmount = 3000;

 

and dzai\compile\ai_death.sqf

Spoiler

at the bottom just before _victim

if (DZAI_moneyGain && Z_singleCurrency) then {
		_cash = round(random DZAI_moneyAmount) * 10; // adds money to ai wallets in 10x increments. 
		_victim setVariable[Z_MoneyVariable,_cash ,true];
	};

 

When you check the ai wallet youll get a random 10 to 30000 cash!

[Schalldampfer]

Add [ _killer = effectiveCommander vehicle _killer; ] into fn_cuntkills.sqf like this:

Spoiler

private ["_killer","_victim","_killType","_killCount"];
_killer = _this select 0;
_victim = _this select 1;
_killType = _this select 2;

_killer = effectiveCommander vehicle _killer;

_killCount = _killer getVariable [_killType,0];
_killer setVariable [_killType,(_killCount +1),true];

if (DZAI_humanityGain != 0) then {
 _humanity = _killer getVariable["humanity",0];
 _humanity = _humanity + DZAI_humanityGain;
 _killer setVariable["humanity",_humanity,true];
};

This will make humanity when you kill an AI with a vehicle turret weapon.

(PvP kill in 1.0.6 already has this feature)

Hi Dam and tnx for the great work,

I have a question that probably the answer is right before my eyes and cant see :)

Is there a way to choose the spawn points of the land patrols? And also to make the cars be temp but stay unlocked if players decide to claim them?

Thanks again

No, land patrols (I guess you mean the guys in the cars) are spawned dynamically all over the map depending on how many you set max. The higher you set the DZAI_maxLandPatrols variable, the higher is the chance to spot one of these guys. As far as I know there is no static spawn system integreated, that's only possible for infantry.

The cars are temporary by default. As far as I remember there is the message "This vehicle won't stay over server restart" or something like that. Means that it will not be saved to the database. But there's no claim option.

But these are nice suggestions. Let's see if I do a remake of that script when I am done with updating my current scripts.

[totis]

ok. tnx Dam for the quick reply

Will this work for an Overpoch server?

Yes, it will.

[Tuhjay]

I can't figure out how to get this to work.  I followed the two guides linked on your Github.  I'm using a survival servers as a host and my missions folder does not contain a dayz_code folder so I thought I could just place it within my mission folder then change where the files were looking to "DZAI_Client\dzai_initclient.sqf" instead of "dayz_code\DZAI_Client\dzai_initclient.sqf" and everything would be fine.  It does not appear to be loading when a player connects.  I've attached a screenshot of the mission folder I am able to download from the server host and a link to my RPT file. https://pastebin.com/qWf3PMfY 

 

[Relentless]

@Tuhjay

The client files are not even necessary to run the AI system. This shouldn't be the problem. Make sure you placed the line in the server_monitor.sqf right.
The dayz_code folder only exists if you already have custom scripts that actually use this folder. If you don't have it, simply create one or change all the paths.

[Tuhjay]

I fixed it, turned out to be a problem with the server host.

@Schalldampfer i know this works when you are the gunner of vehicle but is there a way for it to work with say an armed littlebird or mi17 rockets? you are the pilot and gunner but doesnt seem to give humanity the way a vehicle with a driver and a separate gunner works. 

[Schalldampfer]

maybe you need to add humanity separately for them like

Spoiler

{
_killer = _x

_killCount = _killer getVariable [_killType,0];
_killer setVariable [_killType,(_killCount +1),true];

if (DZAI_humanityGain != 0) then {
    _humanity = _killer getVariable["humanity",0];
    _humanity = _humanity + DZAI_humanityGain;
    _killer setVariable["humanity",_humanity,true];
};

} forEach (crew _killer);

I haven't tested this yet

[nova]

ty for the reply. i will test this tomorrow when i am able and let you know

[nova]

@Schalldampfer na didnt work :( maybe will eventually get added as default in an update

Set a marker in your mission.sqm underneath "class Markers" and make sure to increase the items of markers when you add one. then you can enter the name of this marker in the blacklist.

could i just use     name="Tradercitystary";    name="AirVehicles";  these names in the array? 
or does it need specificly the blacklist area?

[nova]

@DAmNRelentless is it possible for when a.i go into safe zones for them to be auto deleted when a player goes near? a.i and the vehicle?

[looter809]

Hey,

So I'm having an issue to where I am finding ai roaming on the ground even with 

DZAI_maxRandomSpawns = 0;

Most of the time I have found that the vehicle is flipped over and the ai get out and just walk away. A couple times I have not seen any vehicle in sight from where the ai are walking from / near the ai. Any ideas? I'm testing using the default setting for the "AI Land vehicle patrol settings"

[looter809]

Also want to let @DAmNRelentless and @salival that the DZAI version is still 2.2.1 according to .rpt and in the init folder in the DZAI_version.txt

I'm testing some features in my branch.
Destroyed chopper drops a reward crate, Vehicle patrols have some reward in their gear,
vehicle patrol marker and so on.
