iirc intro outro and mainmenu all have diffrent ones so 46 being only mission should be accurate
distant egret
@subtle ore Just to double check you where executing it from the server right?
subtle ore
@distant egret correct
distant egret
k :/ should work ๐
subtle ore
/shrug , i am going to try again this eveniny
distant egret
k
subtle ore
Heh. It's supposed to be challenging. You die, spectate or leave and take a ban. Bans would be cleared daily. Lol
subtle ore
Yes of course. It's more entertaining to see people struggle and want to stay alive rather than expecting to respawn
Flips the whole attitude around of teams
distant egret
Is this for like a event or?
subtle ore
Not necessarily
Was planning on throwing this into public for a few days and see what happens.
Of course i have a helper function to differentiate between manual bans and killed bans
But. It may prove to be very interesting, and promote tactility and teamwork
distant egret
@subtle ore what about glitch kills then? like you run in a rock and you die? And what about Teamkill.
lone glade
what? those still happen?
distant egret
just example
lone glade
I got slightly injured a few weeks ago climbing through a window, but that was my fault really (there were stuff on the other side)
subtle ore
@distant egret team kill handled, if a player was killed by something not a player it'll return the killer or instigator null
lone glade
collision deaths are a lot less frequent now
distant egret
but yea it can happen had it in our last op someone tried to vault on top of a rock but he got inside of it...
subtle ore
So checking they didnt die from fall damage. Not a valid player killed by
Thinking about checking that @distant egret
Lineintersects or something like that
distant egret
Yea guess you could yea.
Don't know if people would like it though. But like you said as test.
It would introduce a lot more caution.
subtle ore
Yep. For those who want an extreme challenge they will get it
distant egret
and make the gameplay slower if you like that ๐
subtle ore
That is the goal
distant egret
going through the missions too quick?
subtle ore
The more precise you are with planning things out, the better
Yep. Either that or they run and gun
"Oh, i will just respawn"
distant egret
@subtle ore I get it, our punishment is just that you have to drive back xD
But banning them idk how I feel about it.
distant egret
Yea understand
but idk just is weird. You don't have full control over it because you won't be there all the time.
subtle ore
Very true.
distant egret
In operations we have the one life rule but we as admins can unkill someone if it was a bug or just something stupid.
subtle ore
I will try and scrub away the possibilities of dying to bugs. During the tests i guess i could check in every once in a while. Log everything
See what needs to be changed, what needs to be added. Etc.
distant egret
Yea good luck, I just know that my guys won't agree with such system xD
subtle ore
Lol. I understand, it's going to be a good experiment for those who are willing to participate
distant egret
Back to scripting...
subtle ore
Lol. Yep.
distant egret
Does setOvercast sync with clients? Wiki down can't see xD
subtle ore
iirc it syncs every 5 minutes
distant egret
ah.
subtle ore
But forceWeatherChange forces sync
distant egret
ah k cool. and that is from server to all clients?
subtle ore
Yep
distant egret
and it would also work as JIP?
so if I executed the commands and then someone joins he get's the same weather.
distant egret
I know that ACE removed parts of their weather system.
because the syncing is now done correctly by arma but not 100% about it
subtle ore
ACE still allows jip weather sync though
distant egret
k, but you don't need to use the ACE weather settings for that?
still forum
subtle ore
Hmmm "remains from" ?
distant egret
Clients will overtime start using the value the server has. what time period?
subtle ore
@distant egret pretty sure thats the time between each sync, would become more accurate over time
ionic orchid
wish I could set different times for each client
(and not have the server try to correct it ever few seconds)
subtle ore
Possible iirc
tough abyss
time should be local or not?
lone glade
it doesn't try to correct "every few seconds) check the code
lone glade
let's say your network wouldn't like it
tough abyss
syncing those values shouldn't be a huge traffic, imagine unit positions are much more expensive on the netcode
lone glade
nah, actually unitPos are pretty light
tough abyss
and what is not light about those weather values?
subtle ore
Why would that be?
lone glade
what would what be?
subtle ore
unitPos being light
lone glade
well, no idea, it's just that looking at the traffic and frame data it's light
tough abyss
[x,y,z] + some anim data per network frame
subtle ore
Wait a sec. Arent the anim cache stored local to the server though?
So its not redundant?
subtle ore
That what i thought
tough abyss
sure but what anim state the unit currently is in will be transfered over the network to all clients
subtle ore
I would hope so
tough abyss
but i don't get why weather sync should be bad :S thats just like 5 or 6 floats transfered each network frame
not even every frame would be required
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
subtle ore
/shrug
subtle ore
Not even a few seconds
cloud thunder
maybe ok for a one time thing but for dynamic weather i would not reccomend and It would have to be run from server again when someone JIP's. I imagine if you have a lot of players on server and a lot othings going on at that moment It could possibly kill the server..
subtle ore
Yep. Bad idea dynamic. Not bad one time event

just one ting
if i put that on a script file so i dont use the spawn, that waitUntil will hold back other codes behind it?
how do i make it only hold that hint?
like this
waitUntil {player distance testguy < 10};
sleep 1;
hint selectRandom ["close2","close3","close4","close5"];
sleep 1;
waitUntil {player distance testguy < 20};
sleep 1;
hint selectRandom ["far1","far2","far3"];
sleep 1;
};
the second hint does no show because of the first waituntil
astral tendon
even on a script file?
astral tendon
i though that spawn was only to fix the unschedule enviroment
astral tendon
right, that is working
waitUntil {player distance testguy < 10};
sleep 1;
hint selectRandom ["close2","close3","close4","close5"];
sleep 1;
};
[] spawn{
waitUntil {player distance testguy < 20};
sleep 1;
hint selectRandom ["far1","far2","far3"];
sleep 1;
};
Hint "this is running"```that will work for MP COOP and JIP playes?
agile pumice
well
I wouldn't use that second condition
because it will hint both
did you mean more than 20?
why not do < 10 and >= 10?
astral tendon
its just a test
i am not even going to use that
i just need to check if the code is running only once
thats why there is those numbers and sleep
this is the real code i am going to use
sleep 1;
waitUntil {triggerActivated dub_1};
[] spawn dub_PT_1;

yes triggers
subtle ore
no triggers
astral tendon
but they are to only control when exacly the dub is going to play
tough abyss
why not just use the trigger activation field if you use triggers anyway?
are you trying to make it complicated?
astral tendon

tough abyss
that won't solve jip

i like weird trigger locality tbh ๐
astral tendon
what is the counter part to "Player" being that is other player and not your self?
sleep 1;
waitUntil {player distance testcar < 10};
[] spawn dub_PT_2;
};````for exemple, this only works if the local player and not other player get on that distance
subtle ore
of course
in MP player is referencing the local player unit
in sp it's referencing the one unit you have set to player
otherwise if you executed it locally to the player then you can use player in this case
trgigers, once again are nasty with this shit
subtle ore
[] spawn
{
if(local player) then
{
waitUntil{player distance testcar < 10};
[] spawn dub_PT_2;
};
};
now this will fire once any player gets closer on testcar?
subtle ore
Once, yes.
astral tendon
but, in case of a JIP player, it will fire aguain even ahead on the mission?
i tested with my friend this
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb};
[] spawn dub_PT_1;
};```it will fire when a JIP player joins
becasue that truck will be already dead on the mission
subtle ore
you are doing this in the initPlayerLocal correct?
subtle ore
of course it does
have you even looked at what the event scripts do invidually?
anyways
I doubt these scripts run after resapwn
check if you're forcing respawn on start
or if it's not being executed when your friend joins
there shouldn't be any JIP issues if it's in the initPlayerLocal
because initPlayerLocal is only concerned with the player that has joined, not any other players.
astral tendon
thats make sense since that waitUntil was never fired once
astral tendon
the
dub_PT_1;
is inside initPlayerLocal
is this
dub_PT_1 = {
uisleep 2;
playSound "Play605";
uisleep 2;
playSound "10MC500";
uisleep 2;
playSound "10md500";

};````jesus christ
astral tendon
there is a way to the server to call it then?
subtle ore
still wouldn't matter
you're spawning the code after the fact
yes of course, have you read up on locality in arma 3 yet?
astral tendon
i cant, wiki is dead
subtle ore
you can execute things on the server indipendent of the player
of course you can't
but for as many times as you've ran into this problem I thought you would
astral tendon
i tried early to find about some kinda of server init or something
what is it called?
astral tendon
so, on the initServer.sqf it will can call the dub_PT_1 if i put this line
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb};
[] spawn dub_PT_1;
};```thats the result of copy and paste from the editor
subtle ore
no excuse
astral tendon
that player rule still aplies to the initServer.sqf
sleep 1;
waitUntil {player distance testcar < 10};
[] spawn dub_PT_2;
};```here
letme write this for you
[] spawn
{
sleep 1;
{
waitUntil{_x distance testCar < 10};
[] spawn dub_PT_2;
} forEach allPlayers;
};
really not the best, but I guess it works.
astral tendon
i see
thats good, i will save this exemple for more work around that.
and you will be happy for the fact i am not ussing triggers
well, nevermind. it did not worked on a server
it worked on a single player but not on MP
only this one did not played
{
sleep 1;
{
waitUntil{_x distance testCar < 10};
[] spawn dub_PT_2;
} forEach allPlayers;

does Terminate also stop scripts with sleep?
simple solstice
@astral tendon you just spawned the script x times number of players
if you want to play the sound remotely
remove the forEach
and do
[] remoteExec ["dub_PT_2", -2]
and switch the _x to player
I would also recommend that you put sleep in the waituntil, it doesn't need to check so often
astral tendon
im trying someting diferent, how do i stop the dub_PT_1?
simple solstice
you need to terminate it
but if you want to do that
you need to name the spawn
astral tendon
how i do it?
simple solstice
blah = 0 spawn {}
still forum
@chilly wigeon It has a limit on max execution time to not freeze your game forever. It stops executing when that time is up or it ran the set number of cycles.
If it runs less than the number of cycles it should've then it stopped because the time was up. The less cycles it runs the less precise is the result
still forum
Why the blah = 0 part?
indigo snow
Definitely not that
still forum
most people do [] spawn {} You have to pass a value in on the left side. You can choose 0 if you want.
But if you don't need to store it in a variable then don't do that
Yes terminate stops scripts with sleep.. Actually it only does that
still forum
"name the spawn"
"Put the result into a variable"
astral tendon
this is how it is called
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb}; [] spawn dub_PT_1;
};````that seens to work
so i put like this on the initplayer.sqf
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb}; dub_PT_1_running = [] spawn dub_PT_1;
};```then if i need to stop it
terminate dub_PT_1_running
is all right?
distant egret
@astral tendon if you want to stop dub_PT_1 Yes.
astral tendon
my problen was when a JIP player connects he run the dub_PT_1 (that truck was already dead) then what happens is that sounds plays wile he was on the base, with this i can try to avoid that
maybe put on onPlayerRespawn.sqf
distant egret
Jup, but you can also just run the code on the Server side?
that way you eliminate JIP
astral tendon
i tried but it all went sideways
distant egret
ah k
astral tendon
seens like i can only trust on local files to work
all those codes related to dubing or sounds are stored in initPlayerLocal.sqf
is there a file for when the player connects? the wiki still dead
still forum
@astral tendon You could also just check if the player did JIP and then stop the script
astral tendon
true
distant egret
onPlayerConnected.sqf
still forum
onPlayerConnected is a eventhandler. It's not a script file that's auto executed
initPlayerLocal.sqf fires when you join
distant egret
ah ye
astral tendon
so i tink playerlocal will do the job
distant egret
I'm lost without wiki ๐ฆ
astral tendon
the code will look like this
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb};
dub_PT_1_running = [] spawn dub_PT_1;
if (didJIP) then {terminate dub_PT_1_running};
};```good to go?
distant egret
didJIP? where is that defined?
indigo snow
New command
indigo snow
Better of just using an if statement directly, though
Instead of spawning and then checking to remove, check if it should start in the first place
distant egret
but that would also terminate if someone JIPed before the truck died.
astral tendon
in case if a JIP player join when the truck still alive, the dub_PT_1 will never execute
once it dies
distant egret
Yea
astral tendon
now i remember that didJIP does not unchek once the player already respaned
so he is a JIP forever with this command
then it can work if i put on the outside
so it will execute only once
just the ```if (didJIP) then {terminate dub_PT_1_running};````alone
astral tendon
but what if he not JIPed?
still forum
@astral tendon
dub_PT_1_running = [] spawn dub_PT_1;
if (didJIP) then {terminate dub_PT_1_running};
Wtf? Spawn it and then kill it if JIP... How about not even spawning it in the first place if didJIP?
distant egret
my problen was when a JIP player connects he run the dub_PT_1 (that truck was already dead) then what happens is that sounds plays wile he was on the base, with this i can try to avoid that - You couple minutes ago.
still forum
You can probably check the time how long the player was connected
all your events from the past should trigger within the first 10 seconds
so if JIP and less than 10 seconds on the server. Don't execute script
astral tendon
lets say, a player playing normaly
distant egret
Ah no I see it... You have a waitUntil for the truck being dead.
still forum
You could also use an eventhandler
when truck dies then play music.
Instead of if truck is dead and I didn't play music yet then play music
The eventhandler will only fire when the truck dies. Not later and not sooner
astral tendon
that !Alive truckbomb can be any other code
distant egret
such as, player inArea Trigger?
astral tendon
or
triggerActivated
distant egret
Yea
That's why its better to do it server side
and remoteExec to clients the sound functions with JIP disabled
astral tendon
i tried once but it all went clockwise
in the end i had to make way more complicated code just to make sure it execute for other players
distant egret
remoteExec isn't complicated.
still forum
Same for trigger. Instead of a trigger has been activated some time in the past. Just make that trigger execute your code once
astral tendon
in my test, triggers still executes even if the player joins later on the mission
still forum
Maybe it wasn't set to trigger once
astral tendon
it was
still forum
And.. Just don't trigger on clientside then
trigger serverside only. The server won't rejoin the mission and run old triggers
astral tendon
then the code inside it does not execute for other players that are not the host
simple solstice
and you use remotexec
astral tendon
interesting, i will save that
if i had that early i could solve it faster.
of couse, i need my friend to test with me.
distant egret
//initServer.sqf
[] spawn {
sleep 1;
waitUntil {!Alive truckbomb};
remoteExec ["dub_PT_1",0];
}
This would do it I believe, but remoteExec can be used in triggers too.
distant egret
why not xD?
astral tendon
the server is supouse to call the codes in the initPlayerLocal.sqf
distant egret
server can't go in there
still forum
well it could.. But that's not..
intelligent
@astral tendon I assume you set the dub_PT_1 variable in initPlayerLocal?
astral tendon
yes
is this
uisleep 2;
playSound "Play605";
uisleep 2;
playSound "10MC500";
uisleep 2;
playSound "10md500";
uisleep 4;
playSound "10MT500";
uisleep 1;
_civscreen = civscreen;
_civscreen say3D "civsrunning";
uisleep 2;
playSound "Play607";
uisleep 4;
playSound "10MC501";
uisleep 4;
playSound "Play608";
uisleep 4;
playSound "Play610";
uisleep 3;
playSound "CmdA501";
uisleep 8;
playSound "Play609";
};````Then that code is in the dub_PT_1 variable. Not inside initPlayerLocal
The server doesn't care about where you defined a variable
using remoteExec you tell the client to execute code
the server doesn't care in any way
distant egret
if you use -2 for targets and you local host it does it run it for the host? because it doesn't run it for the server.
still forum
afaik. yes. but I don't use remoteExec much
distant egret
I use it but it's just from/to HC
astral tendon
another problem is this
```[["civkilled",["-1 respawn tickets",""]] call BIS_fnc_showNotification] spawn BIS_fnc_MP; ````
its on the initPlayerLocal.sqf
it is supouse to show this notification to everyone in the server if a civilian got killed
but, it only shows to the killer
distant egret
I'm guessing it's in a eventhandler?
astral tendon
yes
addMissionEventHandler [

};
};
};
}
];
thats it
distant egret
That's not how you use BIS_fnc_MP really.
I believe
[params, functionName, target, isPersistent, isCall] call BIS_fnc_MP;
you have everything in one element.
also BIS_fnc_MP is old
astral tendon
what is the equivalent to it?
distant egret
This function is now provided for backward compatibility only. Please use the engine based commands remoteExec or remoteExecCall instead.
remoteExec/remoteExecCall
call one for you as you call BIS_fnc_showNotification]
astral tendon
that also works to a player to other player?
astral tendon
remoteExec [["civkilled",["-1 respawn tickets",""]] call BIS_fnc_showNotification];
like this?
distant egret
params remoteExecCall [functionName, targets, JIP]
["civkilled",["-1 respawn tickets",""] = params
BIS_fnc_showNotification = functionName

cunning nebula
hmm anyone know for sure if object variables persist after the object/unit has respawned ?
little eagle
You can make other objects respawn when dead with this command:
respawnVehicle
And they won't keep any variables.
cunning nebula
yeh, tought so
little eagle
Playable units keep their variables though.
Unless the player logs off and the slot becomes empty (ai disabled).
Then the unit is temporarily deleted and a new one is made with a new object namespace.
Is made once someone (else) takes the slot.
I think the only thing that persists even when ai is disabled is the vehicle var name, even when changed with command. So you can do some wonky work arounds to keep variables even then.
And even when they don't have a var name from the editor name field.

tough abyss
Say I load up a mission, which has 5 scripts. Is there a way to get all global variables in those scripts?
still forum
read them
tough abyss
Hopefully that's more clear.
still forum
you can check how many variables are in missionNamespace.
But that won't tell you how many of them your scripts cause
if you use a OFPEC tag thugh you could filter the list of variables in missionNamespace by your tag and thus find how many variables with your tag exist
why do you wanna now that?
tough abyss
Just a random question ๐
still forum
As expected
little eagle
There kind of is a way to attach variables to a mission. But it requires you to add a dummy 3den attribute sadly. I always thought about adding support for this to CBA.
Not enough use cases I think though.
cunning nebula
@tough abyss delay the execution of those scripts
save the array of allVariables before you run them
then save the same array afterwards
substract them
and you should have a better list
tough abyss
@cunning nebula - what if it's not my mission, and I've not control over its scripts.

So I got these functions,
class sys_missionStart {
file = "etr_public_servermod\sys_server\sys_missionStart";
class init {postInit = 1;};
class setDate {};
class setWeather {};
};
};```
The init function has ``call ETR_missionStart_fnc_setDate;``. However it doesn't run it's code. Can postInit only go in it's own function? Or am I being stupid again?"Can postInit only go in it's own function" No
distant egret
When I run call ETR_missionStart_fnc_setDate; in the debug console it works
still forum
check in debug console if the function variable is define........
RPT? script errors?
distant egret
Nope
I had the function name wrong first it had an error about that but when I fixed no trace of it
also just running ETR_missionStart_fnc_init; it works.
just put a diag_log in to check if it runs.

Does anyone here know how setUnitTrait ["camouflageCoef", _x];
works?
Which _x increases the units chance to stay hidden from enemy detection?
(_x > 1) or (1>_x>0) or even (1>_x) ?
I've tried testing this but my test setup showed no effect whatsoever.
lone glade
0<1, it's a value for unit detection for one of the AI FSMs
0 being no change and 1 being max effectiveness
solemn mason
that is bonkers, so I can only decrease the effect of the units camo but not buff it ?
*default is 1
lone glade
you absolutely sure it is?
solemn mason
I've checked on a fresh spawned unit(s) player getUnitTrait "camouflageCoef"
lone glade
oh wait, it's a different one that i'm thinking about, i'm thinking about the config value for uniforms
solemn mason
yea I saw them the higher the less effective they are from 0 to unlimited
lone glade
now that I think about it, if you're on dev branch get and setUnitTrait are broken due to enum errors
solemn mason
I'm on profiling
lone glade
should work then, try checking with targetKnowledge on yourself
solemn mason
my setup is a Blufor unit checking by "knowsAbout" and spawning Opfor facing away with varing coef on VR. => no effect
lone glade
it's a bad test, AI will instantly spot your other unit, there's 0 environmental camo on it
try in a forest / place with high grass and the unit laying down
solemn mason
I've done a similar non scripted approach on altis but the results were varying couldn't get good results there too. guess I'll try again with the script.
lone glade
ah, I was thinking of the camouflage value in config, and indeed lower is better
plush cargo
there is another trait that works well with camocoef, cant look it up to be sure what it is :/ but I believe that with camo coef they will still realize a unit is there but not be able to find him, you can see the ai trying to target but cant find it.
solemn mason
the audibleCoef? haven't played with that yet, one step at a time

could be that one

lone glade
first of all, it's a listnbox.
I'm trying to retrieve a nested array ref from an array, I'm currently setting each nested array index in each row, I was wondering if there was a better way than refilling the whole listnbox since if I modify the original array the index isn't right anymore

make a function to terminate it

Not every command needs a page. remoteExec(Call) should share one.

Not really

From where do you call it?
still forum
if you call from inside a spawned script then it will be scheduled.
You can call and it will still work
it depends from where you call
little eagle
Yes, it all depends from where you call the function. It's all about the script environment.

I call it from another called script
little eagle
call doesn't change it.

Called from dialog
onButtonClick = "[] call life_fnc_useItem;";
then called in that script via: [true] call life_fnc_storageBox;

Ui events are unscheduled. ButtonClick you can't use any suspension commands, because that script runs from top to bottom in one frame.
