[Tutorial] Clickable self-bloodbag with configurable limitations (Updated 02/21/2014)

[adg]

hello! first of all you are awsome, its a very good idea the clicable selfbb and all its customization.

my problem is that when i implement the code, building clicing options, dissapear (the greenbox with option appear, but empty, and nothing happens if i click) and im not able to do anything with the rightclic.

 

Im in dayz epoch 1.0.4.2 if anyone has idea of why thids happens, please gime me some instrucctions. thankyou!

 

(sorry for my english, im 5 year old XP no, im not english speaker)

 

You probably made an error in ui_selectSlot.sqf.

 

Try this one for 1.0.4.2: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14937351/ui_selectSlot.sqf

 

 

//Edit fixed the file loc.

Just to clarify... I should be taking dayz_code.pbo from @dayz_epoch, not @dayz?  I tried it with @dayz dayz_code.pbo last night and it blew up my server.  Had to undo the edits and everything worked again though. 

[adg]

Yes, from dayz_epoch

[Locodino]

That worked!  Thanks to the guy who posted about same issue earlier... I would not have figured this out unless you posted about your issues as well!

[Panadur]

Nice work.

 

Thanks for credits :)

Wow, just tried this out and its incredible! Much better than Krixes!! I like the clickable option instead of the scroll wheel. Very well done!!!! ADG, You rock babe!

Glad you like it :)

So I don't have a compiles.sqf in my mission folder.  I understand you want us to copy/paste it from the epoch code if we don't.  However, one of the mods I use (Extended build snapping) has two steps in its direction:  One is if you DO have a compiles.sqf file, the other one is if you DO NOT have the compiles.sqf.  At the time I didn't have a compiles.sqf, so I instead followed Step A for the installation of that mod.

 

If I add the compiles.sqf file for this mod, is there a chance it could negatively impact the other mod?  Perhaps I should be posting in the other mod thread about this, I'm not sure.  Just worried about a compatibility issue.

 

Edit:  Looks like it will call issues since I believe Build Snapping uses its own custom compiles.sqf if you don't already have one.  Probably just have to reinstall that mod using a new compiles.sqf that i create so i can use it with other mods like this.

Thanks Survivor for the great Self Bloodbag!

 

Just want to add the following solution to the problem i encountered that stopped both Self Bloodbag and your Debug from working.

 

In the file <Your_Dayz_Folder>\MPMissions\<Your_Mission>\init.sqf

 

i had to change line 62

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_code\init\compiles.sqf";				//Compile regular functions

to

call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "custom\compiles.sqf";				//Compile regular functions

That said I would also like to mention that i am setting this server up from scratch and your things are the first things I am adding so that could be the reason for me missing that line in my file.

 

Hope this info helps some other n00bs ;)

[Brockie]

Hey,  I really like this mod.

 

One variable I would like to see added is to make the transfusion take longer, a loop in the animation a few times before it works.  I suppose it would also need some way to be interrupted.  It would be very much appreciated!

[Line2.lv]

Hi, which line I need to change / add in the code to enable slower action till self blood transusion is completed!

This is one of the things which by my opinion needs to be configurable...

 

For example I want to make that it takes 30 seconds till the action is completed....

Can you please help me?

 

Thx, Juris!

So I got this working with 1 - 2 items but from what my RPT is saying it don't look like it will let me add multiple lines with the same item i.e toolbox or bloodbag, I tried mixing it up a bit and its still not having it I get wait for host. Is they anyway around this? or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Each one has to have a unique class name. But I don't think the class name really matters.

[CamP]

Is this script still working? I'm having difficulties getting it to function correctly...

[caboose1]

with ref to this part - 

	// Add extra context menus
_erc_cfgActions = (missionConfigFile >> "ExtraRc" >> _item);
_erc_numActions = (count _erc_cfgActions);
if (isClass _erc_cfgActions) then {
    for "_j" from 0 to (_erc_numActions - 1) do 
    {
        _menu =  _parent displayCtrl (1600 + _j + _numActions);
        _menu ctrlShow true;
        _config =  (_erc_cfgActions select _j);
        _text =  getText (_config >> "text");
        _script =  getText (_config >> "script");
        _height = _height + (0.025 * safezoneH);
        uiNamespace setVariable ['uiControl', _control];
        _menu ctrlSetText _text;
        _menu ctrlSetEventHandler ["ButtonClick",_script];
    };
};

I already have this in 

_erc_cfgActions = (missionConfigFile >> "WaTd" >> _item);
_erc_numActions = (count _erc_cfgActions);
if (isClass _erc_cfgActions) then {
    for "_j" from 0 to (_erc_numActions - 1) do 
    {
        _menu =  _parent displayCtrl (1600 + _j + _numActions);
        _menu ctrlShow true;
        _config =  (_erc_cfgActions select _j);
        _text =  getText (_config >> "text");
        _script =  getText (_config >> "script");
        _height = _height + (0.025 * safezoneH);
        uiNamespace setVariable ['uiControl', _control];
        _menu ctrlSetText _text;
        _menu ctrlSetEventHandler ["ButtonClick",_script];
    };
   };

How do i get it so both right click options are in ?

[Ranisimo]

Worked like a charm! (Took me two attempts to get my head around it though)

Hey Folks, Looking for a bit of help with this script. Building a Panthera Epoch server. Currently this is a fresh server with only SelfBB as a mod.

I've created a custom folder and have added compiles.sqf and ui_selectSlot.sqf from my Epoch DayZ code folders. Created the extra_rc.hpp and SelfBB.sqf. I've edited each file following the instructions. Uploaded the PBO to the server (HFBServers).

 

When loading I get a black screen with the progress bar at 3/4ths and a count down timer in the right corner. Countdown ticks to 110 seconds then times out and dumps me back to the player logon screen. I can hear the oceans and the player walking in the background.

 

I've linked my compiled PBO to my skydrive. Looking for assistance. Thanks

class ExtraRc {
	class ItemToolbox {
		class BuildBike {
			text = "Deploy Bike";
			script = "['MMT_Civ'] execVM 'SCRIPT_PATH\EVD\EVD_deploy.sqf'";

	};	
		class BuildMotorcycle {

			script = "['TT650_Civ'] execVM 'SCRIPT_PATH\EVD\EVD_deploy.sqf'";

		class BuildMozzie {

		};
	};
};

Hello I am getting this error from my RPT file:

 

ErrorMessage: File mpmissions\_cur_mp.chernarus\Scripts\extra_rc.hpp, line 12: .ExtraRc: Member already defined.

 

I followed the instructions exactly but put everything in a Scripts folder instead of a Custom one. I have attached my hpp file to this post. PLEASE HELP!

[THEbookie]

class ExtraRc {
	class ItemToolbox {
		class BuildBike {
			text = "Deploy Bike";
			script = "['MMT_Civ'] execVM 'SCRIPT_PATH\EVD\EVD_deploy.sqf'";
		};
		class BuildMotorcycle {
			text = "Deploy Motorcycle";
			script = "['TT650_Civ'] execVM 'SCRIPT_PATH\EVD\EVD_deploy.sqf'";
		};
		class BuildMozzie {
			text = "Deploy Mozzie";
			script = "['CSJ_GyroC'] execVM 'SCRIPT_PATH\EVD\EVD_deploy.sqf'";
		};
	};
};

Try it like that

[SASR Ryan]

Thanks for the script!! great work!! works a charm!!

 

good clear coding, easily customisable, well structured, VERY easy tutorial to follow, and  great layout! 

 

Thank you for the script muchly appreciated!!!

 

Will definately reccomend to my friend who is also starting up his server!!!

 

One question though, does this script inter-fear with any others?

 

 

Thanks,

Ryan.

have a small problem not sure how to solve it      i installed this script and deploy bike script seems they both use the     extra_rc.hpp  file

 

  class ExtraRc {

class ItemToolbox {

class Old_bike_TK_INS_EP1 {

            text = "Deploy Bike";

            script = "execVM 'bike.sqf'";

};

};

};

 

 

and ofc the bloodbag one would be 

 

class ExtraRc {

    class ItemBloodbag {

        class Use {

            text = "Use Bloodbag";

            script = "execVM 'custom\SelfBB.sqf'";

        };

    };

};

 

would i put both these codes in same file if so how.    or is there another way around this cheers    (bike script i was adding  http://www.dayzpatriots.com/deploy-bike-add-right-click-option-to-items-t290.html)
