VARTA BRIDGE

[LoCK0N]

any1 i got/seen a decent script for a bridge to varta on panthera plz 

[Aidem]

make one? :D aint that hard

[LoCK0N]

i have made one with the 3d editor and took out the code, saved it to my buildings folder and called it in my init.sqf correctly, the bridge appears but some parts are out of position !!!

[ruubje11]

We had the same issue, the bridge doesn't position itself correctly. Seems to be normal with building bridges, saw it with skalisty bridge as well

[LoCK0N]

i got it sorted with help from CEN

if u want help give me a shout 

[ruubje11]

Here, a "shout" :D

 

I'm curious as to why it happened!

[LoCK0N]

Curious to what? How they moved from the 3d e?ditor

[ruubje11]

Sorry, I was typing on my telephone which caused me not to explain myself very clearly!

 

I was wondering how you fixed it, because I really don't know what makes them not follow the sqf.

[LoCK0N]

dont really know, but i installed a script and it auto builds the bridge and everything is straight , and all i had to do was ajust the height

[Axe Cop]

YOu could use this script to build a bridge, easy but looks cool: http://killzonekid.com/arma-building-bridges/

Thank you very much sir, this community puts out alot of help.

How does one use the mentioned script here? I've not done much in the editor keeping things where they should be after you save the edit

[Guest]

just look at cens file, you just execute this in init.sqf i suppose ...

[KamikazeXeX]

That makes sense but i'm still unsure of how that works, i'll give it a go :D

Put it into your dayz_server.pbo

 

And just call it from the server_monitor under custom configs =)

Like so?

 

waitUntil{initialized}; //means all the functions are now defined

diag_log "HIVE: Starting";

waituntil{isNil "sm_done"}; // prevent server_monitor be called twice (bug during login of the first player)

// Custom Configs
if(isnil "MaxVehicleLimit") then {
	MaxVehicleLimit = 50;
};

if(isnil "MaxDynamicDebris") then {
	MaxDynamicDebris = 100;
};
if(isnil "MaxAmmoBoxes") then {
	MaxAmmoBoxes = 3;
};
if(isnil "MaxMineVeins") then {
	MaxMineVeins = 50;
};

execVM "custom\bridge.sqf";
// Custon Configs End

[Fully]

Yeah...

 

I found an easy way to build a bridge. All you need to do I place the first vehicle, then use this script to attach to.

//START//

if (isNil "oneTime") then {

oneTime = true;


fnc_bridgeA2 = {
private ["_start","_obj"];
_start = createVehicle [
_this select 2,
_this select 0,
[],
0, "
CAN_COLLIDE"
];
_start setVectorUp [0,0,1];
_start setDir (_this select 1);
_start setPosATL (_this select 0);
for "_i" from 1 to (_this select 3) do {
_obj = createVehicle [
_this select 2,
_this select 0,
[],
0,
"CAN_COLLIDE"
];
_obj attachTo [_start, [
_i*(_this select 4),
_i*(_this select 5),
_i*(_this select 6)
]];
};
};

//END//



//Placement of objects//
//[startingPosition, direction, objectClass, repeats, offsetX, offsetY, offsetZ]


[ [13287.128, 2786.3577, -0.3], 222.15, "Land_nav_pier_m_2", 27, 40, 0, 0 ] call fnc_bridgeA2;

};

As you see down the bottom.

I created a bridge that is 1.1km long this way =)

Hi.

 

Where is it exactly do you put this script?

 

Is it a separate one from the actual editor SQF file.

 

Also, if you are not using the pier as a bridge would you replace "Land_nav_pier_m_2" with the code of the vehicle you was using?

 

Thanks

//[startingPosition, direction, objectClass, repeats, offsetX, offsetY, offsetZ]


[ [13287.128, 2786.3577, -0.3], 222.15, "Land_nav_pier_m_2", 27, 40, 0, 0 ] call fnc_bridgeA2;

You can stick anywere you like, in the Server.pbo is the best place. So it spawns server side.

 

The editor sqf is only good for getting the location(startingPosition) direction and object class =)

 

the rest you build your own script.

if (isServer) then {

if (isNil "oneTime") then {

oneTime = true;


fnc_bridgeA2 = {
private ["_start","_obj"];
_start = createVehicle [
_this select 2,
_this select 0,
[],
0, "
CAN_COLLIDE"
];
_start setVectorUp [0,0,1];
_start setDir (_this select 1);
_start setPosATL (_this select 0);
for "_i" from 1 to (_this select 3) do {
_obj = createVehicle [
_this select 2,
_this select 0,
[],
0,
"CAN_COLLIDE"
];
_obj attachTo [_start, [
_i*(_this select 4),
_i*(_this select 5),
_i*(_this select 6)
]];
};
};

//END//

//Placement of objects//
//[startingPosition, direction, objectClass, repeats, offsetX, offsetY, offsetZ]

[ [11946.711,3096.6877,-2], -69.292145, "Land_Nav_Boathouse_PierT", 5, 3.5, 30.65, 0 ] call fnc_bridgeA2;

};

                        
diag_log("Skalisty Island loaded");
};

As you can see there are 4 bridges in the above script.

You can use as many as you want or just one.

 

Then just copy post I hope this helps.

 

You can do allsorts with this eg:build an enclosure...etc

Hey. After weeks of playing with this I am still none the wiser.

 

I don't suppose someone could post a tutorial of exactly what needs putting where etc as I am at my wits end.

Thanks

I am assuming you can do some basic editing of files/pbo files

 

Create a folder in your dayz_server called custom (you can use any name)

 

Copy the above code and save it as skalisty_bridges.sqf - save it to the folder custom you created above.

 

Then open the init folder and open server_functions.sqf

 

Scroll down to the end of the text.

 

Insert this line

//Skalisty Bridges
call compile preProcessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\custom\skalisty_bridges.sqf";

Repack & upload your dayz_server.pbo

 

You should now have bridges!  :)

 

You may find that there is only  a start and an end to your bridges. This seems to happen to the first person who joins the server only. Relogging fixes this. If anyone can explain how to fix please do!

Sorry guys I tried this on my panthera 1.0.5.1 server but this script is not working :(! I cant see any bridges too!
