[Release] DayZ Mission System

[TheVampire]

Hello, I installed this but most of the missions doesn't have names, so most of them are just red boxes/green boxes for me.

 

RPT?

Im trying to figure out why there are null errors, SO if you have any idea why, Please tell me.

I tried other Debugs but they won't allow me to build or trade. If you have any other Debug Monitors, Please tell me. Thanks

TheVampire, is there a way to add support for tasing the AI if added to overpoch? I'm looking for the damage handler but it doesn't appear to have one. A damage handler would be cool so if you shoot the AI in the leg then they can only crawl.

The AI should be using the default Arma damage handler, I just don't use a custom one for them. All I do is add an eventHandler for when they are killed.

Update for my problem: It spawns the 2 missions properly with all the markers and text. But there are another 2 missions that will be spawned incorrectly, and by incorrectly, I mean no text, smaller marker than the other ones, one missions will have a GREEN marker, and the notifications pop up for half a second and it is always 1 line. Is there a problem with the timer or something? I did modify the "Epoch Events" Sections. Can that be the problem?

[Civyar]

Which missions spawn Epoch construction drops?

[ekroemer]

Major EM1 if you added it to the DZMSMajorArray.

 

@Vampire:

 

I think in DZMS(Min|Maj)Timer.sqf the check

	//Let's check that there are missions in the array.
	//If there are none, lets end the timer.
	_cntMis = count DZMSMajorArray;
	if (_cntMis == 0) then { _run = false; };

should be placed before the loop. As it is, having an empty DZMS(Minor|Major)Array will throw NULL-errors becaus the loop is not 'break'ed.

should be placed before the loop. As it is, having an empty DZMS(Minor|Major)Array will throw NULL-errors becaus the loop is not 'break'ed.

 

The loop should stop as soon as _run is false, although now I would use a exitWith instead.

It's far more likely someone would experience an error with a mission file missing instead of the array being empty anyways.

What's the DZMSMajorArray?

Also, I've had a lot of missions spawn without AI at all now.. Any common issues that may be preventing that?

[ekroemer]

DZMSMajorArray = ["SM1","SM2","SM3","SM4","SM5","SM6","EM1"];

in DZMSConfig.sqf, you might need to add the Epoch-only (supply) mission EM1 manually.

For the other question server rtp would help.

 

 

@Vampire:

 

I concur with the exitWith. As far as I know, when setting _run to false within the loop it neverless will finish the current iteration; all the _run=false does is to stop the loop at the next iteration when the while condition is checked.

 

Yes, it's far more likely, but on our servers we tried to run only the major missions and thus did a DZMSMinorArray = []; resulting in the error. Only thing it does is to throw the error once. Me being ocd about things like this, I just thought I'd mention it in case you'd want to include it in a even more final version ;-)

[Civyar]

DZMSMajorArray = ["SM1","SM2","SM3","SM4","SM5","SM6","EM1"];

in DZMSConfig.sqf, you might need to add the Epoch-only (supply) mission EM! manually.

For the other question server rtp would help.

 

 

 

Thanks for that, added it in :)

 

I can't provide the RPT log right now as the server is online, but will do soon.

If you are getting missions without any AI it usually means you have an error in the array of skins they can wear, or something else in DZMSAIConfig.

I'm not sure, but I do believe you are right. I have learned quite a bit of coding since I originally released this. :P

I'll make a mental note of it if I plan to update DZMS anymore.

[Nemaconz]

Any way to set the script to run, let's say, all of the missions at once?

[CyberJunki3]

Having a serious issue that is spamming my RPT with hundreds of thousands of lines of text, of which is probably going to get me some unwanted negative attention from my host rather soon.

 

RPT:

waitUntil {DZMSMinDone};

DZMSMinDone = nil;

};>

 8:38:50   Error position: <DZMSMinDone};

DZMSMinDone = nil;

};>

 8:38:50   Error Undefined variable in expression: dzmsmindone

 8:38:50 File z\addons\dayz_server\DZMS\Scripts\DZMSMinTimer.sqf, line 42

 8:38:50 Error in expression <or Mission %1.",_varName];

 

 

waitUntil {DZMSMajDone};

DZMSMajDone = nil;

};>

 8:38:50   Error position: <DZMSMajDone};

DZMSMajDone = nil;

};>

 8:38:50   Error Undefined variable in expression: dzmsmajdone

 8:38:50 File z\addons\dayz_server\DZMS\Scripts\DZMSMajTimer.sqf, line 42

 8:38:50 Error in expression <or Mission %1.",_varName];

 

Same error just keeps repeating itself over 20-30 times a second.

Only thing I have done to DZMS is add Overpoch weapon loot of which has no errors what-so-ever.

This fix should be in the latest version though.

Thank you for your help, I must have re-used an old version from my old server on my new one. Derp.

My guess would be that you have an incorrect weapon classname in DZMSAIConfig. The class config probably came back with no magazine field.

[ATRealMaster]

Aparently it reads AddBoxM.sqf now.....

[redcloud78]

unrelated to any ^ have the mission spawn tank trap in a circle around each mission or a 10mph speed limit if i gave them launchers i would not want my players to have launchers

There is a lot of this in my logs.

I love how good it combines with WAI. :D
