Yes, you can place a box in the editor but it will have the default loadout of said box...

I'll write a short tutorial on how to add your own content to it once I access my PC again tommorow.

thank you. also lets say i placed a box and someone take the gear inside it, will the gear respawn after the server restart? also how do i change what gear is inside it?

please send me a link if you make the tutorial :D

Yes the gear will respawn each restart. Upload your file for this base to dropbox or something similar (with the crate placed) and I'll use that for the tutorial.

i uploaded it but without the crate because i saved the file and now i dont know how to open it to edit it, sorry im very new to this.

but here is the file i saved. http://www.mediafire.com/download/x5pdcd9xyyd4g4y/castle.Chernarus.rar

i know how to get it on the server so you dont have to show me that, but could you also show me how to open up the mission file again because when i press ctrl+e it just goes to a new map.

thank you for the help

RipSaw · February 18, 2014

Okay I'll include that in the tutorial too.

I list mine as _bldObj rather than _vehicle, see for why but my example below will show you how to add contents, just edit to suit and remember to change the coordinates to suit :)

_bldObj_669 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
  _bldObj = createVehicle ["USOrdnanceBox_EP1", [22824.277, 3997.9133, 14.089289], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
  _bldObj_669 = _bldObj;
  _bldObj setPos [22824.277, 3997.9133, 14.089289];
 
    
          clearWeaponCargoGlobal _bldObj;
          clearMagazineCargoGlobal _bldObj;

          _bldObj addWeaponCargoGlobal ["ChainSawP",2];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["workbench_kit",1];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemWoodWallDoorLg",1];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemWoodStairsSupport",1];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemSilverBar10oz",5];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemGoldBar10oz",1];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemGoldBar",5];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["FoodCanPasta",20];
          _bldObj addMagazineCargoGlobal ["ItemSodaPepsi",20];
          _bldObj addBackpackCargoGlobal ["DZ_Backpack_EP1",1];
          _bldObj setVariable ["permaLoot",true];
};

To clear out the box default loadout you use

          clearWeaponCargoGlobal _bldObj;
          clearMagazineCargoGlobal _bldObj;

so if i wanted to find the coordinates on where to place the weapon box, can i just place something simply like a pole or something and then save it, after ward just copy the coords and just replace your text?

also can you tell me how i can edit the map i just created? because when i press ctrl+e it makes a new map and doesnt let me edit my old one

RipSaw · February 18, 2014

Yes that would work. But It's best to place the same object.

There should be a button with the text Load on the right of your screen when you press ctrl+e, then select the kind you saved it as ( MP mission, SP mission) and you get a list, then select the one you want to edit.

You can use anything but best to use an actual ammo crate, that way it sits where you want exactly how you want.

Then when you're happy save the project, mymap.chernarus and save it as a MP mission, it will by default be saved in 'My Documents'

Read the link i post above, Poncho has added so much quality info you'll be fine if you follow his ways and the help in the thread, it'll all make sense :)

Good luck

thank you both for the help, i also got a few more problems, first one is that i used

but the bots are too advanced by that i mean they are too hard to kill and the players on my server just give up on some of the missions so i was wondering if you could tell me how to turn down their skills.

the second problem i got is that i want to put a warning system in my server so it lets players know when the server is about to restart, i used bec scheduler but its not showing any messages, i will send you the file if you need it but im going to sleep now so i will send it tomorrow.

the final problem is the custom debug monitor, can you tell me how to do it? because i searched on the forum and i used a custom debug script but when i use it,the traders are broken so when i buy something i cant cancel trade, it just keep going and going and some other features doesnt work.

again thank you both for the help.

:D

For WAI you want to edit AIconfig.sqf and ajust the values, 1 is full skill and 0.1 is retard.

You're better off finding existing WAI and BEC threads, you'll have more chance of finding the answers and getting help :) both topics have multiple posts about them,

i did that but it made no difference, i was 300 meters away and they just head shot me when i was in helicopters and all the skills were set to 0.15, i will send you the file tomorrow , can you check it?

That would be the static AI .50 cal. On full skill level they do that up to 1000m

 Reporter account. Fill in the username and password for your reporter account.
# Gamehack,Hacks will be reported to a database. all players who connect will also be checked against this database.

# Setze den Benutzernamen von deinem Account
User = 

# Setze das Passwort von deinem Account
Password =

but i dont know what to type in there, do i have to get it from my server provider or can i just type in a random username and pass?

RipSaw · February 19, 2014
