Wicked AI/Mission system

[Deerid]

How can spawn one M2Static on mission?

[Turtle]

Can someone explain to me or send an example on how to add more positions? And do the missions come up on the map?

[BetterDeadThanZed]

*edit* Also, to clarify the ammo boxes config. I plan on adding ammo boxes at locations where I've set up bandit bases. In the staticammoboxes.sqf I only need to define what ammo box I want to spawn, and it's filled with the settings in the missioncfg.sqf file?

 

A question never answered. I set up several static ammo boxes, but there's no indication these boxes are spawning. Players are saying they aren't finding the boxes. I am currently only using WAI to spawn helo drops and static ammo boxes. For AI, I use DZAI and I don't want the missions, so in the AIconifg.sqf, I have ai_mission_sysyem = true; but in missionCfg.sqf, I commented out the "missions used when selecting the next random mission" section so that those missions won't spawn.

 

So, my question is this: I've got the StaticAmmoBoxes.sqf set up to spawn boxes, but it doesn't seem that they are spawning. Am I supposed to add a setting someplace to activate the static ammo boxes? 

 

My StaticAmmoBoxes.sqf:

/* Add ammmo boxes to static locations on map and fills it with loot from missionCfg.sqf
 
creates a ammo box at [0,0,0] then fills it
 
_box = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[0,0,0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_box] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
creates a 2nd ammo box at [1,1,1] then fills it
 
_box2 = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[1,1,1], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_box2] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
add custom ammo boxes below this line
*/
 
_boxdc = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[6913.47, 11437.2, 0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_boxdc] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
_boxzub = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[6748.56, 5607.66, 0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_boxzub] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
_boxisland = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[13698.82, 2926.715, 0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_boxisland] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
_boxkoz = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[4677.0259, 4704.5791, 0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_boxkoz] call spawn_ammo_box;
 
_boxbfb = createVehicle ["BAF_VehicleBox",[9078.155, 8034.855, 0], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[_boxbfb] call spawn_ammo_box;

How can I increase the spawn rate?

[Turtle]

I just posted fully working custom spawns

Adding more custom spawns does this increase the spawn rate?

[Swash]

Following the lead of picking I threw together a quick gear set with more random gear skins, and epoch loot.

Just replace the gear sets and the ai_gear_random line with the following for a quickie setup of loot.

Adding more custom spawns does this increase the spawn rate?

 

Hey Turtle, with "static" spawns the more you add the more ai you get. They just show up at server start and wreak havock.

I don't think Markk311 set up a respawn for AI yet. So AI dies and doesn't come back until restart.

Just a side note through. From what I've read and experienced, static ai is less stress on the server over "dynamic" spawns.

Even when i used Sarge AI I tried to use static over dynamic as much as possible.

 Ok well all I literally want to do is instead of getting a spawn every 30 minutes or however long it is make it shorter, like a new spawn every 10 minutes. you have any idea how to do this? I haven't found anything in the files for it unless I am missing something.

Is there a way to get it so instead of waiting x amount of seconds between a mission, get it so they just spawn in x minute intervals?

 

For example every 10 minutes a new one spawns, regardless if the one before it has been taken over or not.

It is a really good mission system just a shame we haven't seen anything or heard from mark for a while

You can remove the check for the end of the mission and put more private spawn . But it is necessary to do this!

Also overload the server, such an abundance of missions to nothing.

Moreover, the presence of any missions destroyed economy dayz . Instead of survival , players travel the missions collect loot and sell it to merchants , it's anything but not dayz . I put my timing 40 minutes between missions and 30 minutes to the disappearance of the loot . And I edited the sale, things missions with no more than 1 gold . Mission profitable to do , given the abundance of loot , but not dramatically

Hi, New mission files civtrucks.sqf ver 2.0 for WAI

Description: Survivors found truck. Your task is to capture the truck itself, kill the survivors taking their loot. You're up against two infantry detachment of 3-5 and a detachment at Hami with a machine gun, cut circles around the truck (30 m).

 

for intallation need:

1) Notepad ++

2) Pbo depack

3) Installed and work WAI 

 

Process:

1) Depack you dayz_server files and go to WAI folder 

2) Open notebad++ and create file civtrucks.sqf

bots do not shoot at Vodnik_DZ! What need to edit ??????

u need to give them bigger weapons like LAUNCHERS..

[Munkeskov]

Markk311 i dont know what to say mate but these Ai are awsome i dont need to use any other Ai on my 2 servers,custom spawns is great,made a new base with 2 static boxes full of gear,4x6 squads,2 heli patrols,6 static M2/MG's,plus 2 heli para drops with 14 more Ai dropping in :D who needs to play Oringins and go to Sector B when you can make your own :P.

 

Markk311 i give you 10/10 just brilliant thank you.

 

ps.i hate them Ai must of died 20 times lol

Sounds like a Challenge, do you like to share the settings/files?

Is it a random location?

Does it start at serverstart/restart?

I Think this is the Best ai :-)

[Xvil]

So Uhm, all my missions have dead Ai's besides the ones on the tri-pod guns... Thoughts?

[General FinnBat]

So Uhm, all my missions have dead Ai's besides the ones on the tri-pod guns... Thoughts?

Are you using DZAI also ?

As in DZAI you can decide if other ai groups shoot each others or not.

I had it on and was wondering this same problem. Then fixed it and now they dont kill each others.

[poet]

Ive gotten this to work nice on tavi map but few things im having an issue with if anyone can help out

 

a: Missions 98% ofthe time spawn on mountain side causeing vechs to kill ai and giving free loot to players

b: i did not see anyway to adjust ai to make them fortify instead when set up in an area to guard box's all will rush to the players instead of taking up fortifications

 

I'd like to add the ease of use is very nice and i luv the mod it's a great alternative to sarg ai and alot less complicated

[Richie]

I also use Taviana and changed the spawn points, feel free to use mine :)

Guys, what's the best way to get co-ordinates for your custom spawns?

If I log out where I want the the AI to be, can I grab my coordinates straight from the database or do I have to convert them using something like:
http://snuletek.org/arma2coordcalc/

 

Thanks.

You don't have to log out...just get where you want to be then tab out to your database (refresh the database) grab the coords and use the X,Y points.
