[RELEASE] Vehicle Patrols on missions

[OSMOX]

thx for all your help..Got my 60+ mission with ai that patrols the missions now great work...adding you to thx message on server soon to be open.

[OSMOX]

how would you off set the ai patrol veh from spawing in the building object when mission spawns 

 

//Spawn patrol

_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;

[_coords,   //Position to patrol

_coords, // Position to spawn

75, //Radius of patrol

10,                     //Number of waypoints to give

_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)

1 //Skill level of units 

] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

 

 

if the veh patrol spawn just 20 meters away from center 0 things would be good.

The same way the buildings are displaced. You are going to have to catch all the coords, XYZ and offset them.

[OSMOX]

//Spawn patrol

_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;

[_coords,   //Position to patrol

_coords, [(_coords select 0) +10, (_coords select 1) +5,-0.3];

75, //Radius of patrol

10,                     //Number of waypoints to give

_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)

1 //Skill level of units 

] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

 

 

 

how should this be? since its not spawning        _coords, [(_coords select 0) +10, (_coords select 1) +5,-0.3];

[OSMOX]

//Spawn patrol

_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;

[_coords,   //Position to patrol

_coords, // Position to spawn

75, //Radius of patrol

10,                     //Number of waypoints to give

_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)

1 //Skill level of units 

] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

 

 

how would i add +20 at the position to spawn? so veh doesn't spawn center of building in mission and blow up

[TheVampire]

 

//Spawn patrol

_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;

[_coords,   //Position to patrol

_coords, // Position to spawn

75, //Radius of patrol

10,                     //Number of waypoints to give

_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)

1 //Skill level of units 

] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

//Spawn patrol
_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGetVeh;
[_coords,   //Position to patrol
[(_coords select 0) + 20, (_coords select 1) + 20, 0], // Position to spawn
75, //Radius of patrol
10,                     //Number of waypoints to give
_patrol, //Classname of vehicle (make sure it has driver and gunner)
1 //Skill level of units 
] call DZMSVehiclePatrol;

thx so much

[wangtangnoodle]

Is it possible to use this for heli patrols?

[TheVampire]

Is it possible to use this for heli patrols?

 

It would need modified.

Hi, Im getting the following error.

10:17:02 Error in expression <nSilent _unitGroup;
ai_vehicle_units = (ai_vehicle_units + 1);

_patrol = ["patr>
10:17:02   Error position: <ai_vehicle_units + 1);

_patrol = ["patr>
10:17:02   Error Undefined variable in expression: ai_vehicle_units
10:17:02 File z\addons\dayz_server\DZMS\Scripts\DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf, line 14

Line 14 is

ai_vehicle_units = (ai_vehicle_units + 1);

I can't seem to find where the original variable is set.

Also, from what I can tell, its not really effecting the patrols, but I could be wrong.

 

Thanks

put this right above that line.

ai_vehicle_units = [];

[Sherlock]

Fast, Amazing and Epic, thank you Vampire.

[Sherlock]

Okay, doing that has no resulted in the following error.

21:31:56 Error in expression <];
ai_vehicle_units = (ai_vehicle_units + 1);

_patrol = ["patrol"] call DZMSGe>
21:31:56 Error position: <+ 1);

21:31:56 Error Generic error in expression

Additionally, this has broken AI spawning and ability to complete mission.

Woops, it wants a value instead of an array....

 

Use this line instead:

ai_vehicle_units = 0;

[HotBassyx]

can someone reup the DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf ?

[BetterDeadThanZed]

can someone reup the DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf ?

 

Sorry, was cleaning out my drop box and must have deleted it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8kg5c5v360zijz0/DZMSVehiclePatrol.sqf

only error i get now after fixing alot from patch....

I got these errors :/ script fresh installed - patrol is working.

And when i add a hmmv the gunner has no ammo :(

 

edit:

 

i guess i fixed it - it works now (added line 14 and line 37) - but i dont know why a array for _aicskill fixed it oO

Hi people can any one shed some light on this error im getting with the DZMSVehiclePatrol script:

Mission still spawn cars as far as I can see

Guys am I the only one with this issue?

any one have a fix please

After looking for veh_monitor in DZMS but finding it in WAI (old version, not 2.x)

veh_monitor = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "\z\addons\dayz_server\WAI_v1\compile\vehicle_monitor.sqf";

I'm afraid there's a dependency to WAI left.

But looking into vehicle_monitor

if (!isServer) exitWith {};
private ["_mission","_veh"];
_veh = _this select 0;
if (count _this == 2) then {
	_mission = _this select 1;
} else {
	_mission = false;
};
waitUntil { count crew _veh > 0};
while {(alive _veh) and ({alive _x} count crew _veh > 0)} do {
	_veh setVehicleAmmo 1;
	_veh setFuel 1;
	if ({alive _x} count crew _veh == 0) then {
		_veh setDamage 1;
		_veh setVariable ["killedat", time];
	};
	if ((_mission) AND (clean_running_mission)) then {
		_veh setDamage 1;
		_veh setVariable ["killedat", time];
	};
	sleep 30;
};
_veh setDamage 1;
_veh setVariable ["killedat", time];

only clean_running_mission seems to be a WAI variable. That one seems to be set to true when a mission is running and false before/between missions.

[Tang0]

Have you checked the Vehicle Patrol V2 

[Tang0]

I used V2 though i changed it slightly, if your vehicles have no ammo use the DZ versions of them ie

DZMSPatrolVeh = ["ArmoredSUV_PMC_DZ","HMMWV_M998A2_SOV_DES_EP1_DZ","LandRover_Special_CZ_EP1_DZ","Offroad_DSHKM_Gue_DZ","Pickup_PK_GUE_DZ","HMMWV_M1151_M2_CZ_DES_EP1_DZ","GAZ_Vodnik_DZ"];

[chamaerops]

Hey Guys :)

Just a little Question:

Is it possible to add a Heli Patrol instead of the Land Vehicle Patrol?

That would be so nice, if someone can help me or post the code i will need for.

Thanks!

The code is a lot different as you need to manage their height, set the waypoints in the air, and set the fly-in heights when they first spawn.

Someone might do it, but it would require going through all the code.
