Hey guys, does anyone know how I can add levels to vehicles so that players can get them after a certain game level, such as being a sergeant, I already know how to add mod vehicles to the vehicle pool

I am trying to add action "START BUILDING" to the UH1H as the same as the engineer truck. Had anyone done this? Or knows how? I've look at the engineer truck components, and don't see anything that points "Start Building". So it must reside in another component pointing to the engineer truck.

yep. IDK how to that do personally. I think there is a mod on the workshop for 1st person view. Download, and reverse engineer it. I am sure it's only a couple of components. Someone else may know. Recent chat about camera views and such.

For example, this mod forces 1st person when not in a vehicle.

What file/folder do I need from scenario author (let's say modded custom conflict) to be able to edit it on my PC (move objectives, change pre-spawning vehicles, etc)?

Hi, I am currently making an extension for the CombatOps Eden mission. I want to add some additional changes to the mission (like hideouts etc) but I also need to make sure that the mission will naturally inherit future updates that Bohemia makes (like when AI driving drops).

I have created a subscene of the original mission, but the issue I am having now is that all the layers are locked which makes extending the mission feel impossible.

However if I save a new copy of the original mission, I have access to all the layer content but now I don't think the mission will inherit updates.

#

Is there a way of overriding entities in the mission so that it will prefer my custom one? Lets say for example there is a Area_28 in the mission where all the player starts are setup. I want to add some additional layers. Would I create an Area with the same name to override the original in the same way one would mod prefabs or textures?

lean scroll
#

@zinc wharf

  1. Create a new scenario with a new subscene for the world you want. Everon/Arland.
  2. In the world editor open the combat ops for the world subscene you have chosen.
  3. Click on the default layer containing all the entities, or click on just the area/layer you want. Control-C to copy.
  4. Open your scenario.
  5. From the menu bar, select edit, and "Paste on same Position" .
  6. Done.
zinc wharf
#

OK so what you are saying is just create a blank subscene and copy paste everything you need from the combat ops into my new mission?

#

Love the videos btw, please keep making them!

@lean scroll thanks for the quick help, looks like this will work just fine

#

@lean scroll one of the downsides using this method, the names of the entities seem to get lost in the process

not all of them, but alot of them

Hello everyone

Someone knows the mod so as not to kill allies ?

#

@lean scroll Hey buddy, I followed your tutorial on Youtube for spawning random simulated arty, and changed the prefab from arty rounds to infantry targets, to try and randomly populate a shoothouse. Everything else was done identical, and I cant get it to actually do anything. The Area trigger fires, and I get the hint that I have for it, but nothing in the list below it spawns/activates. Have you ever run into that?

lean scroll
#

@waxen basin First I haven't changed the simulated artillery to spawn AI. So no I've never ran into that. 😁

I wouldn't use the simulated arty setup to randomly populate a shoot house. To do that I would just use an area with layer and slotAI. Setup spawn children to random multiple and a percent. You could even use groups, and select "Balance on Players Counts" to give some randomness.

waxen basin
#

@lean scroll Hey thanks for the response, i'm not using it for AI. I am spawning in the Infantry Target entity from the firing range, its a knockdown style target. I realize the way I worded that wasn't super clear

#

Basically just trying to use the random multiple spawn and the percent to spawn a portion of the available prefab slots

lean scroll
#

Yea same thing, just use a slot.et, and random multiple.

#

Hey there, I'm sorry to disturb, I'm creating a mission atm, and I'm just completely stuck. In part of my mission, I basically want my players to be able to "disable" a generator, so I've placed a prefabed object (see screenshot), and I'd like to add an interaction menu to it, so that a "Disable" action would be available. That would complete a task, who will trigger another task in which they would have to defend the position for X amount of time, then the mission continues etc.

image.png
#

Do you guys have any clue on how to do that ? :/

lean scroll
#

@frank locust I haven't not tried that yet. I would look at the slotpickup.et entity, and see how BI did it to add action to pick up intel, and then adjust there.

waxen basin
#

@lean scroll So it works with the area set to On_init and everything else as Same as parent. I cannot get it to fire off of the trigger however. I still get the hint, but then nothing happens after the hint pops up from the area trigger. Should it be set to Trigger, or Area Trigger for activation?

frank locust
lean scroll
waxen basin
#

Okay, so the Area is currently set up that way. Does the Layer need to be set to On_Area_Trigger_Activation to recognize that the area trigger was fired?

lean scroll
#

@waxen basin let me do a quick setup and test.

waxen basin
#

@lean scroll Alright, thanks man. I really appreciate it

lean scroll
#

@waxen basin

Try this setup and adjust.

#

This spawn 3 out of 5 targets

#

@waxen basin oops cut the trigger...

waxen basin
#

Youre a genius. That worked perfectly

#

@lean scroll

lean scroll
waxen basin
#

One more question, if you happen to see this. How would I make this repeatable? If I wanted to say go in GM, delete the targets after the shoothouse is clear, and then trigger another randomized spawn? I removed Once from the tag and enabled repeated spawns on the Area and the Layer, but it only wants to fire once.

lean scroll
#

@waxen basin I believe it is possible. Somewhere WAY up above in this channel there was talk of deleting an entity with an action. I think to start with you have to remove the area trigger and switch it to 2 slottriggers. Make one the entrance trigger, and one on the exit trigger. It's a shoot house so it should be one way in, one way out.

waxen basin
#

@lean scroll It has an entrance and an exit built in currently, so that is doable. I was just going to delete the targets it spawned in GM in between runs, and re-fire the existing framework to spawn randomized targets in again

#

Side note, do the Areas/Layers/Slots need rplcomponents? I would assume so since this is going into MP

lean scroll
#

they are all setup to run in MP.

@nova onyx Hi Yethe, wondering if there is a way to delete multiple slots with "Delete Entity" action. I couldn't get it to go no matter which combo I used. Maybe I had the wrong combo. Entity is not plural in the name "Delete Entity" so may be not.

lean scroll
#

So someone posted a message in another channel about the above method giving an error. I unfortunately can't find that post to reply to it. I viewed on my phone, and can't find it now. The errors thrown are fully expected. Because you are spawning a random number of slots, but trying to delete all of them, the system is saying "these slots don't exist, so I can't delete them". When you leave the trigger, the errors stop.

So... I'm feeling a bit stupid rn. I'm placing my AIs after I've placed some MGs, and now I'm wondering how to hell I could assign them to the MGs ? Do I need to setup a GetIn then Defend waypoint ? I'd like for them to stay in the MGs...

Since it's included, I don't need to place them in slots

lean scroll
#

It's fine to have AI in another Area or Layer. It looks at the SlotClearArea Radius. If the US faction is trigger dominant in the 5 meter radius you complete the task.

#

I usually set up my tasks separate from my AI. AI spawn in using dynamic despawn on the Area.

#

This is covered in my videos I believe.

frank locust
#

Oh... I just manually place my AI groups x(

#

I've watched some but I'm trying to speedrun a bit since I don't have a lot of time...

#

That I assume would complete the task if 98% of player in area ?

Take your time. My first mission was painful until I figure out the @lean scroll videos and other piece of information out there. As the World Editor is a young and crucial tool, a lot of improvements that need. Nowadays if you make something odd through managers entities, the mission begins to behavior in a weird way.

On one of my servers I am using the DarkGru RU overhaul mod. By default it changes the default loadouts for my Russian team. For me to prevent this from happening, how would I override it?

They're certainly useful for procedural placement using scripts, I tried this a couple of weeks ago

Oh so they can be referenced, that's cool, and I suppose they do let you know there's a decent flatish spot to place comps

2 kinds of slots. Slot.et are used exclusively for the scenario framework. You use it to spawn objects. The advantage of using slots vs just dropping in objects is many. One, you can take advantage of the dynamic despawn, and not take a hit on the budgets. Two, you can setup randomization for objects so a different object appears. For example, different trucks, or cars. It doesn't work on every object.
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework_Setup_Tutorial
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework

Other slots for placement of compositions to ensure proper placement and orientation, and assist in scenario creations. 3 slots for roads, and 3 slots for terrain.
From the script for SlotRoadMedium.

/*!
A slot is a suggested area for placing entities and compositions.
It has guarranteed traits like flatness or road going through which make editing easier for the user.

In order to build multiples land minefields randomly, it's necessary to use AREA+LAYER+SLOT, where each SLOT is each landmine, and the LAYER is the minefield cluster. And the AREA is configured to be RANDOM_MULTIPLE 50% of the available LAYERS. That said, the mines are not exploding when they are pressured but exploding when hit by fireguns. I just figured out that, when we placed a land mine directly (.et, without using SLOT to spawn that), there's a component called "SCR_PressureTriggerComponent" where you turn ON the "Trigger Alive" and "Live" options. This way the landmine will work when pressured too.

#

My question is: how to set this component in a mine created through SLOT?

#

If we build a minefield without using SLOT's, it's impossible the random them.

#

In the same time, if we call an object/asset through SLOT, I'm not sure if there's a way to set components to this object (mine).

Hello,
it's a possibility to launch an Area after a task move finish ?
Like when you spawn you have a task move and when the task finish you activate an Area with many task and only one random task launch after that.

  1. All areas should always be set to "On_init".
  2. Set layers to "On_Trigger_Activation" holding mulitple tasks that you want to call.
  3. Call the layer from the "OnTaskFinshed".

@keen thicket The "E" is editable, and has the fuze built in, and armed.
You have a couple of options.

  1. Make 2 duplicates of the mine, one called "Armed" and one called "Unarmed".
  2. Edit the unarmed one, and uncheck "Live" in "pressureTriggerComponent". This will keep the fuze in place but not armed.
  3. Create a minefield with multiple slots. One slot "armed", one slot "unarmed". Then set layer to "random multiple" and 50%.
  4. This will create a set of mines, armed and unarmed, and you won't know which is which.
#

I've mined the dirt roads using this method to good effect.

#

@keen thicket When using "E" entities, they count against your budget. So maybe use the "Non-E" equivilent.

Each activated landmine is checked by the engine many times per second in-game I thought the vanilla mines use physics collision to blow up?

in Arma 3 there are many types of "Event Handler" that work similar a trigger, but without that "seconds-cycle". Are Reforger mines working like Arma 3 entities using Event Handler? It could be...

Or is it the dynamic despawn spawning all the mines causing the fps drop? I spawn over 150 mines "On_Init" at the start of the scenario. I don't see FPS issues.

#

I'm using in the last coopmission 8 areas, each one with 8 minefields and uncountable cluster mines in. If we turn Despawn System OFF... the FPS literally drops from 95 to ~40 fps. hehe

keen thicket
#

245 mines placed, but only ~130 mines are spawned IF players reach all minefield areas in the same time (rare). When player reaches the area, only a small bunch of all loaded mines are spawned. No FPS impact because Despawn System activated with 10s as its Update Rate (default = 4s).

Question: Is it imperative to keep mods you have imported to enfusion updated?

#

I started using workbench a couple weeks ago & imported a bunch of mods then, but wondering if since they've all mostly been updated, will it screw stuff up using the versions i have imported? or when a mission gets published to workshop / makes ppl install the current versions that won't lead to any discrepancies?

mods.PNG
lean scroll
#

@junior maple So based on my history, when the game issues a major update, it has a tendency to break mods. If those mods break your scenario will break as well. And depending on how intertwined they are, and how quick the owner of the mod updates, if at all, you may be down for a while.

Mods added to your scenario will update when you update the added mod in workshop.

People who download your scenario with down revv'd mods attached, will have to roll back to version you have in your scenario, IF available.

Kind of like servers who run mods with version numbers, and don't update. You try to join the server with mod version 1.1, and they run mod version 1.0. It will roll you back to 1.0. IDK how many versions BI keeps or how long.

Although mods are great, and add much value to the game and scenarios, my rule of thumb is make your scenario mod free, then make a modded version if desired.

livid acorn
# junior maple also - when u say create an empty mod, u mean with rhs though ya? or completely ...

well english is not my native language but let me try to be more cleare

in the main mod you were making you have a faction manager prefab right ? the standard in engine factionmanager i assume ?

well in youre second mod you want to override that same factionmanager from arma reforger folder itself then indeed in the second mod add the clothing and weapon mods if for you that is rhs then indead add it ass a dependency

then configure the newly created factionmanager together with a loadout manager to customise the standard faction to youre liking

vivid anchor
#

@lean scroll Do you write scripts or strictly use SF?

livid acorn
#

correct me if that not the correct way anyone btw

vivid anchor
#

You obviously know your shit when it comes to SF.

lean scroll

@vivid anchor GOD I wish I could script. Not yet anyway. Strictly SF for now. I retire in 18 months, and then I will dive into enfusion scripting head first.

#

holup i think i got it, didn't know when u right click a prefab override to x mod is a thing that comes up

livid acorn
# junior maple your english is good bro it's just my lack of know-how in the workbench xd

oke i will make it short

step one
keep main mod as clean of dependencies as possible

step 2
create new mod named faction&loadout or something

find factionmanager and loadoutmanager wich you also use in youre main mods scenario

right click and override

now do you adjustements inside second mod

to use it in youre main mod when starting tools and choosing youre files right click on it and load with addon

choose yourr loadout mod

junior maple
#

Godspeed

#

Will report back

junior maple
#

like, when u open a config, it's just all of that stuff filled out for the rhs faction

a2.PNG a1.PNG
livid acorn
junior maple
#

ya

livid acorn
#

but you cannot adjust them only override and then adjust

#

wich if i understood correct was youre goal making own faction and loadout with rhs right

junior maple
#

not custom necessarily, just want to use the rhs premade factions

livid acorn
#

i believe you can copy paste the info if you right click scr_factiom

#

well configure them in the factionmanager with the faction key and it should have them working

#

this is all out of my head im not at my computer so i might be missing a step ???

This covers everything you need to know about factions.

just one final hangup now - vehicle maintenance points/ helipads show no vehicles in them 😭

junior maple
#

fucked something up & made the vehicle maintenance points completely unopenable, holding F progresses the bar but it just resets when it would normally open the buy menu

@junior maple In the entity catalog for vehicles, make sure "BUILDING" is checked.

and rgr will do

^^^ should be noted i added in all the stuff for like exp, and the depots to function

lean scroll
#

ok

#

add component "Spawnerrequestcomponent" as well.

junior maple
#

also hey- is there a way to set building on all entities? Or gotta go through and do it one by one?

#

or a way to expand all fields so i don't gotta click through

lean scroll
#

Search for "BUILDING"

#

it will filter out everything but that.

junior maple
#

Tyty but yeah still nothing after adding spawnerrequestcomponent + selecting building on all

#

Just so brutal cause they were working before (they didn't have entity catalogs set but they'd open to the empty buy menu at least)

#

If only i was a little more patient & didn't go onto other stuff when they broke & instead undid whatever i did to break them, i probably wouldn't be in this predicament meowsweats

welp it's opening again but no vehicles still zzz

Welcome to Blackheart_Six's Arma Reforger Tools Tutorials Channel. I cover the Arma Reforger Tools, called Enfusion Workbench, and working mainly in the Enfusion Workbench World Editor, I show you how I use the scenario framework to create scenarios for upload to the Arma Reforger Workshop.
I hope you enjoy these videos and learn to create some...

I believe you need loadout manager, your faction needs prefabs to load. To test just drag the loadout manager in, change one of the factions keys to TB and then test

vivid anchor

Yeah there has to be a faction with the same key on the loadout manager

#

Otherwise what loadout would they spawn with? Because there isn't one...

I can only have three factions, no more, no less. I need to figure out a way to have more than three or, find something that works very similar to Conflict but with more than three factions. Just hoping someone can point me in the right direction or a potential solution.

#

If I go down the Scenario Framework route, I'll either loss all of the Conflict functionality or, I have to re-build it all, I have no idea how difficult that would be but judging by how in-depth the Conflict mode is, my bet is on very. Or I find a way to have more than three units on the already built Conflict game mode but haven't been able to find any mods that can do that, can't find anything on forums and can't find anything in the Discords. I assume it is something to do with scripting and changing the .c used to build the GameModeCampaign prefab but again, not entirely sure and would like some more experienced input on it.

GameModeSF are the main game mode for Scenario Framework

for example you can copy the component from GameModeCampaign and modify like you want

Because i can spawn for now without supply point on all Command post build by the Construction Truck or by GameMaster.

livid acorn
# celest stump No, still haven't found where I actually drop the entity catalog, unless I am be...

so revert back for a second forget what you did

go lookup the name of youre prefab insinde vehicle.conf and click on the magnify glass next to it to locate it

right click that prefeb and do override in youre mod

open the prefab you just created
edit prefab

and inside that prefab look for editablevehiclecomponent
in that components properties the rank and price of that specific vehicle.are set

celest stump
#

As I also want to make it faction specific but have a base list, that all vehicle depots will have access to.

livid acorn
#

that a bit deeper then just setting up an price and rank why dont you use the base game vehiclepoints ?

celest stump
#

Rather than having it so that all vehicles are available in it.

livid acorn
#

yeah that is possible inside the next file

Configs/entitycatalog/US/us_vehicle.config

open multilist
open youre specific vehicle or add it
open entity datalist

there will be 2 options here

  • editor data
  • spawner data

when you want a vehicle to be buyable from the stations make sure editor data is set to edit and build

livid acorn
celest stump
#

Where am I setting the entity datalist data?

livid acorn
#

expand editor data and check the checkmark at build

#

o wait

celest stump
#

And how do I now assign this to my vehicle service prefab in world editor?

livid acorn
#

that a custom one you made ??

celest stump
livid acorn
#

the way im suggesting is you override the standard one

celest stump
#

I duplicated it and just changed the file name.

livid acorn
#

override it

#

dont duplicate

celest stump
#

But then wouldn't that vehicle catalog only be for the base game vehicle service, therefore I wouldn't be able to add more vehicles dependent on the faction.

livid acorn
#

this way you hook into the base game files and can customize and expend from there you can disable a base game vehicle by simply adjuts editordata -edit - building to only editordata edit

and you can right click and copy a base game vehicle
then create new one and paste to create new vehicles

#

just override and test you will.figure it out

im trying to add

xphandlercomponent to my gamemodeeditor full

i wanted to make an override of this gamemode inside my mod so that everytime someone uses the gamemode editor its automagicly setup correctly

adding the xphandler in my world to gamemode editor full works perfect.

but when i override the gamemodeeditor full in my mod and do the same thing in there i get errors.

am i not allowed to override gamemodeeditor full or ?

ik trying to make a reusable framework for a milsim unit were settings such as xphandler and saving are always setup the same way

most override work without issue but trying to do the same thing with gamemodes seems to give issues am i missing something ?

How can I place down a command post in scenario framework to allow the faction to build at their MOB?

So then it functions for them as the ones I have available are the campagin ones in the resource browser.

livid acorn
#

today i have done some testing with the saving future (the milsim unit i do this for) wanted presistence in their campaigns

ive noticed the following
gamemodeeditor full its save function saves more then the conflict one (ai and there waypoint for example) but does not save player rank .

also gamemodeeditor full seems to duplicate on every server restart the full composition (supplies and all get duplicated )

the gamemode conflict does seem to save correctly for now

Im an old man and afflicted with Old-scoolitus - i have no idea how to navigate without the Eden Editor and barely get steam workshop as compared to Armaholic - So i was just hoping for an easy recommendation or if anyone knew of an SP mission geared specifically for the new AI-Commanding

Adding a bit of context on the arsenal issue: the script returning an error is the SCR_RestrictedDeployableSpawnPointComponent.c
It specifically fails in the EntityQuery located at line 125 for starters. By debugging it it looks like it’s not detecting the IEntity owner hence not deriving the faction from it.
This leads to the null pointer

#

on top of that by debugging there's a mention at 2 deployable entities which are not in the layer:

@vivid anchor AI groups for players to command?

vivid anchor

No, for players to create groups

"Player Groups"

lean scroll

ok

First in the faction manager make sure you don't have "Create Only Predefined Groups" checked. If checked you can't create groups.

I'm using the FFA faction manager

lean scroll
#

Ahhhh Free for All. Let me look at that.

#

thats a different animal

#

You may have to compare to another faction manager and setup things pertaining to groups. Like callsigns, frequencies. It's a free-for-all manager, so I always assumed that was of individuals, not any kind of groups.

#

Not sure on the internals, but look at the .layout for Player Roster (P Key), see at that does for "Create Group".

#

@vivid anchor Added the 3 FFA items, faction, loadout, and spawnpoint. No changes. Press played, and brought the Group GUI.

hey guys, i got a conflict mission going mostly working, a few things i kinda wanted to ask.

  1. does anyone else experince the main bases randomly switching on start its not everytime but it happends in the tools playing its fine but also does happen randomly a restart of it fixes it.

  2. been trying to get the game master mode kinda working i mean admin mode works just the edit mode kicks out of the server thought it was possible for admining stuff around.

  3. the supplies at the captureable bases show like e.g 800/1300 and when you build something it increases it guessing it just a by product of base building um but had to add a container for them to spawn supply at all is that normal or am i missing something.

sorry abit long new to enfusion engine making done arma 2/3 stuff before though its a breath of fresh air from the old engine

warm crow
#

@sacred mulch Did you use the conflict plugin to generate the files needed for the conflict mode?

sacred mulch
#

inital yes, did re-make a few of the prefabs to suit

warm crow
#

@sacred mulch With regards to the main base (MOB), just make two of the conflict military bases as HQs (assuming PvP) otherwise just make one the HQ (PvE) if you don't want to have different locations as the starting point. I would have to check the exact locations for the options when I am back on my PC.

#

@sacred mulch I am not understanding what you mean by points 2 and 3. Edit mode?

sacred mulch
#

for the bases, the setup is mostly the same the faction affliation set just kinda swap from faction its ment to be to the other vice versa if you get what i mean sorry had to type quickly on mobile to later au time, edit mode like game master option like hold y and get gm

# vivid anchor Tapping P doenst show the group menu for me

I had something similar once and it was linked to the faction configuration and the way groups are managed in there. Can’t, for the life of me, remember exactly the name of the conf file but it was where I was customising the names of the groups available in the deployment screen after you selected the faction. (Maybe callsigns?). Check for your faction if in that conf file the groups are defined or not, you should also be able to define group sizing before the game automatically generates a new one

lean scroll

#

If you mark the create only predefined groups yes. I think that with that option unmarked you could somehow merge the 2 behaviours

# warm crow I am not sure how to do this, could you point me in the right direction?

On the character entity, click on the plus icon next to "scripts" and choose an event, maybe EOnInit - in there you could write some code that kills the character.
Or if you want a cleaner and more scaleable solution, write the code as a custom component and add it to the characters, that's what I would do.
But neither are a great solution by any means.

warm crow
warm crow
digital creek
#

I recommend writing a component instead

warm crow
digital creek

I meant scripting your own component that immediately kills the parent entity, then adding it to the characters.

warm crow
digital creek
# warm crow Oh ok. Might be a bit out of my knowledge base at the moment. Thanks though 🙂

I haven't tested this, but something like that should work.
If you want to test, create a "TPM_CharacterKillComponent.c" script in scripts/game/, paste the code in there and hope it compiles.
Then add the component to a character in your world and play.

[EntityEditorProps(category: "game/", description: "Kills parent character.")]
class TPM_CharacterKillComponentClass: ScriptComponentClass
{
}
class TPM_CharacterKillComponent: ScriptComponent
{
    override void OnPostInit(IEntity owner)
    {
        GetGame().GetCallqueue().CallLater(KillCharacter, 10 * 1000, false, owner); // call after 10s, some delay might be needed
    }
    
    protected static void KillCharacter(IEntity owner)
    {
        Print("Attempting to brutally murder character"); // remove this line perhaps
        SCR_DamageManagerComponent damageMananager = SCR_DamageManagerComponent.Cast(owner.FindComponent(SCR_DamageManagerComponent));
        if (damageMananager) damageMananager.Kill(Instigator.CreateInstigator(owner));
    }

Why do you want to duplicate it? Create a new scenario with empty everon. Create a subscene of the world, then run the "Game Mode Setup" plugin for Gamemaster. You will have the exact same thing as duplicating the GM_Eden. It's only these enitities.

for now its not a mayor issue for me

#

atleast youre markers show up on the vtab the 2 other unit marker mods both dont even show up in the vtab

#

That's because I'm actually inheriting from the vanilla marker system. It's just that vPad presumes that the only kind of dynamic markers are the squad leader ones and anything custom it can't handle properly.

the create a world subscene by opening for example eden.ent

the when you saved youre subscene click plugin there should be a gamemode setup wizard in there follow that setup and the you can start creating conflictbases

there is also a prefab folder for conflict containing radiotowers and bases i believe there is a nice (a bit outdated) but still good guide on youtube

some of the video is outdated so just use as guideline !

and use the gamemode setup from plugin it works like a charm!!!

Pro-tip from a non-professional...
In the resource browser, there is a search bar. Which btw is very good. If you are looking for a particular item type some key words in there, and it will likely find it.
if you put the extension of the object, it will filter on those.
So if you want to find for example a fuel point, enter in the search bar, fuel .et. It will return 156 items that contain fuel. Add US for faction and it reduces the number to 41.

And of course there is the "Funnel" looking icon to filter even more.

Since I didn't know a way either, I recently created a custom AI behavior tree for this.
It makes AI stay in place, look around for targets and shoot at them. It will also heal and reload, but cannot switch weapons or react to dangers such as gunfire.
This last caveat is because I don't know how I'm supposed to use danger events - if anyone knows, please share.

TY. This is fixed in 1.2, and works correctly in my setup. I was having this same issue.

frigid moon
#

so... what can i do?

#

is 1.2 experimental?

#

nobody has been able to use the building system?

lean scroll
#

The logistics system wasn't working when using it in the gamemodeSF. You had to REALLY tweak it.

Done about 10 cycles with it checked. Spawned the btr every time.

# frigid moon so... what can i do?

I am of the mind that once an experimental version is released, I switch my last project I made or any current project I am working to it. The reasons are many.

  1. The latest experimental version WILL become the next release version.
  2. The latest fixes are in the experimental.
  3. The latest items are in the experimental.
  4. It gets me ahead of the curve, and ready for Day 0 release of my scenario.
  5. Learn the new features and BKM for them.

I am absolutely amazed how well the AI does path finding while driving. They consistently stay on the right side of the road. Able to self correct after running into an object. I know the PID is WIP, and will get better, but man it works pretty good out the box.

Is it possible to have randomised spawn points across the map?

lean scroll
#

In scenario framework absolutely!

Set layer to random or random multiple

Is it possible to edit the Conflict base connection range? I want to reduce the range of connected bases so the radio relay matters more

proud dock
#

Transmitting range only seems to affect the players voice radio transmission range and NOT the base capture range 😦

There is no faction save restrictions on the arsenal

use the antenna building, that would normally build prefab and its blue dome is the capture range'

Thank you both @sacred mulch & @chilly tangle

Does anyone have experience with SCR_MapEntity?
When adding it to our Conflict Arland scenario the "Forest" and "Other" areas do not appear on the map in game?

**edit: **Also, is there any way to change the river/pond color or the roads?
edit2: I do have the Raster .edds and Topo both applied (otherwise it wouldn't look any different)

We have got an MHQ spawning at the start of a match but it is not deployable?

We can deploy any MHQ spawned from a heavy vehicle depot, just not the one spawned at with the start of the match?

Is this image supposed to be the "preview image" in the "mission.conf"
Example: 23_Campaign_Arland.conf
If yes, then does anyone know why it's not changing despite being a 400x300 .edds file associated with the preview image?

can someone help me? i made a second scenario in the same file as my first scenario. i loaded it into my server and it is giving me 'JIP_ERROR'

calm ember
#

Hey anyone can help? I have a spawns set, scenario game mode is game master full but I still spawn under the map

#

Have factions etc

restive aspen
calm ember
#

Doesn’t spawn me anywhere near the action point

#

Puts me under map in center

#

And when I put ai in game master now it said invalid placement

lean scroll
#

@calm ember did you run the "Game Mode Setup" plugin for GameMaster .conf?

lean scroll

restive aspen

#

@restive aspen Yea. With multiple scenarios in Mod, you point the scenarionID to the individual serverID. And add the complete mod to the "Mod" section of the .json.

restive aspen
#

So do you recommend I just create a new config.?

lean scroll
calm ember
calm ember
#

i just put in game master prefab instead

#

Down count for the new major update...

#

Two weeks? could be...

lean scroll
#

Scenario Framework Suggestion:
Please uncheck both debug boxes on the SlotPick.et by default. Easier to see the item for placing with both debug boxes unchecked.

I have a question guys. So im going to load in a default edin conflict world and adjust the starting loadout of players and mess with the AI to do the same. My question, is say I have the Mattock uniforms and Mattock weapons. How do I load them into the workshop so that I may use them to adjust the loadouts and such?

lean scroll
short geyser
#

thanks.

#

This video made a lot of things make sense. I was lost, but now I see....lol

lean scroll
short geyser
#

Oh hey, I just noticed you have all those videos on youtube @lean scroll. So Im not making my own mission, but I simply want to copy a conflict eden and adjust the default starting gear with mattock uniforms, gear, and weapons. So what Im stuck on is how to make the project. I open a CTI Eden conflict and I make a sun scene, but after that I just get stuck. So i have to copy 1 by 1, each line of data from the CTI conflict, into my saved Worlds folder?

#
  • Also, what im stuck is when I open a MP map CTI Eden Conflict, it has 2 folders. 1= Eden, 2= CTI campaign. Im trying to figure out if when Im done, if my folder should have the same setup as the 1 i open to make a subfolder

that confused me

lean scroll
#

Do you have your own server?

short geyser
#

Yes

#

I have a dedicated server that I run on the Arma Reforger Dedicated Server Tool

#

So i can make a mod that makes the default load in character for each side start withmodded gerar?

#

Before you run to an arsenal and choose what you want

#

And I want to make AI be modern and not vannilla

lean scroll
short geyser
#

I want my server to present day military

lean scroll
#

This is my mod BTW.

short geyser
#

Other than trying to accomplish all this, I want to learn how to do all this myself and make mods

#

Ill study this, i just want to make sure all of this content is spot on

#

Ive been spending days watching videos, learning, taking coding classes etc

#

Ive ran dayz servers for about 8 years

lean scroll
#

Once you see how this is built, then create your own with whatever dependencies you want.

short geyser
#

And have an arma 3 server, oi just cant figure out this arma reforger tool

#

its very complicated

lean scroll
#

No it is NOT! It is quite easy once you get the basics. And YOU can DO ANYTHING you want to change the game.

short geyser
#

I see

lean scroll
#

Don't like a weapon? Change it!

#

Customize a vehicle, you can do it.

short geyser
#

I still trying to figure out how to do that

lean scroll
#

It really is a better way then the limited mission editor in A3.

#

DISCLAIMER: I have over 8500 hrs in A3 alone, so I am qualified to comment on that.

short geyser
#

is it locked?

lean scroll
#

Yes it is locked. All mods are locked. You can copy and paste out whatever you want.

#

But the main thing is just study it. See how I did it, and then recreate your own to learn.

short geyser
#

I looked at the mod, Do i have to download all the dependencies to view it and mess with it in workbench

lean scroll
#

yes

short geyser
#

ok

lean scroll
#

I've got to go to RL work. Later.

short geyser
#

Thanks man

#

Im just going to watch all of your videos and Im prob just missing a key function that I may not know how to go about doing

Not sure what is meant by the lack of documentation. The page you linked describes how to setup the respawn which is pretty much universal across all game modes and it is further setup for each. Another great way how to understand it is to just open existing scenarios and examine how the respawn system is configured.

Furthermore, all script documentation is available in Doxygen form here:
https://community.bistudio.com/wikidata/external-data/arma-reforger/ArmaReforgerScriptAPIPublic/

As for the ScenarioFramework, it has extensive documentation here:

I’m stuck

nova onyx
calm ember
#

I cannot seem to get a specific zone to cause player damage

#

I want to create a radius that auto causing player damage and causes particle effect

#

My triggers aren’t triggering

nova onyx
nova onyx
calm ember
#

I’m tried this a few different way, mine prefab with weight lowered and effects changed and nothing, then particle effect spawned with trigger components and its only live in editor and on all the time no triggered

#

Do I need to script the trigger?

nova onyx
#

Yes

calm ember
#

I think I’m confused on what I need to attach. Do I start with trigger entity then add particle component and damagemanagercomponent or hitbox

#

Or other way around

nova onyx
#

You need to put this behaviour int othe code so that when trigger gets activated, it will run your code that will do what you need it to do

calm ember
#

And do that via trigger script or in behavior editor

calm ember

Sorry I’m very new with broad ideas
