[foggy sable]

These are from the vanilla reforger how would i check?

[gritty vortex]

Well you placed the prefab in the world so you could just click it to get a list of components...and you could check the mesh in the mesh object component

[foggy sable]

Here?

[glass niche]

Are the SlotMarker's meant to be faction keyed? I can only get markers to show for both teams or not at all.

Make sure you have a good grasp on this before doing any serious modding

[glass niche]

modded weapon tutorial is good for learning the fundementals as well.

How can we enable showing the name of players who talk on enemy radios? So instead of saying "unknown" it just has their name

Or, how can we disable talking on enemy radios altogether?

Hello, do you have a solution for the error below which is preventing me from publishing a mod? 
Could it be because of bohemia problems?

[digital creek]

This error in particular happens when you try to publish with a version number that is already used.
That can happen when publishing fails for a different reason, it will reserve the version number but fail to complete publishing.
To fix this error, manually increase the version number before publishing. But it will usually still not work due to the current Workshop issues.

[merry badger]

Hello!
Do we know if we can publish again in the workshop? Or is it still blocked?

[glass niche]

Is there a trick to using the faction keys? I'm stumped. My OPFOR can see BLUFOR objectives no matter what I do.

at this point i've faction keyed every single layer and slot I could find, still not hiding the marks. 😩

My scenario picks 3 randomly out of 9 possible objectives for blufor, while opfor has to coordinate across all 9 possible objectives since they aren't supposed to know which ones blufor is comming for.

oh maybe it's just the editor. using "local host" F5 seems to hide the marks properly...

[winged kelp]

what is the layout for this timer called in workbench?

[unique plover]

im hoping this is possible without scripting but can you make your player spawn in for the first time unconscious and low blood? only for a short period of time until he naturally regains blood, ive looked into loads of settings im not smart enough to figure it out. thanks in advance

[glass niche]

have a look here but i never messed with it before https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework?useskin=darkvector#ActionMedical

[unique plover]

did look at this before, i was doing it all wrong i was trying to make a prefab of the character with low blood but with the GETTER you can apply the amout of blood to the character on spawn and this worked, thanks @glass niche

[glass niche]

nice. will have to check it out myself

[silk sigil]

have anyone added vehicles for Scenario Framework QRF Dispatcher?

[raw bone]

How can we draw shapes like this on the map please?

[frank crane]

I would also be interested in this, perhaps a BSpline solution could be used for this, I think.

[unique plover]

I might be way off here but isnt it just an image file? you could put them on in photoshop

[fleet girder]

hmm but where do you force it later?

[fiery hemlock]

How do you edit the default conflict scenarios?

[chrome rampart]

Copy and paste same location from the default layer of the conflict scenario to your game project.

[chrome rampart]

Where is this from? Reaper scenario? Did you reverse engineer it to see how he did it? That is a pretty complicated shape.

[raw bone]

ArmaFields

[chrome rampart]

Nope. You first have to create a prefab of a vehicle filled with AI, AFAIK.

[chrome rampart]

From the 50k view, it looks like he is using PolylineArea w/ PolylineShapeEntity

Nested inside the Flag_base.

Custom created as they have a prefix AF_

[leaden meteor]

I have created the everything like the rhs combat ops but somehow killing or destroying a target wont finish the task.
also placing ai for the observation tower also does not work. they get placed at a different location inside the base always at the same place althogh the entity location is somewhere else (its on the observation tower just like rhs did it in combat ops)

[glass niche]

try: area > layerTask > layerTaskDestroy > slotDestroy

i've been running into similar weirdness. i think the SF is really picky 😫

[leaden meteor]

didn't worked.
i mean RHS does it. why shouldn't this work for me then?

is there something i have to keep in mind when creating tasks?

getting this error anyone know how to possibly resolve it

[obtuse solar]

I was wondering if there was a reforger version of "moveinany" to teleport an AI group into a vehicle, or to spawn them inside. Spawning them separately and waiting for them to embark takes a long time and sometimes fails in the case of the BTR.

[glass niche]

Still not able to get finish conditions to work at all.

everything I tried just breaks the task

[leaden meteor]

so apperantly the ai placed for the observation tower does not want to board the tower because the completion radius includes multiple other places they can stay. for example: i have inside that radius of WaypointDefendCP multiple objects the ai can "rest on"/"sit and relax". They tent to choose other objects rather than using the object i have spawned them on. (in this case i spawned the ai on that tower but it seems like they rather choose som other objects/instalations)

fix for this is to make a seperate WaypointDefendCP and make the radius so small, that the ai has to use the observation tower in order to fullfill that waypoint.
I don't know why the ai is constantly prefering more grounded posts but yeah

[fleet girder]

Hey guys, is it possible to build a scenario without publishing it to reforger?

How would I put it in cfg. in server later?

[frank crane]

I was starting to be happy that the front was dynamically changing, but based on the videos, it seems to be fixed instead.

[chrome rampart]

Not at this time

[chrome rampart]

No. You have to publish. The server will look for the mod in the config.json on the workshop. If it is not present then the server will not start.

You can publish as unlisted, and it will only show to you in the workshop as private.

[chrome rampart]

Works in v1.3.076.

[chrome rampart]

You have layer A_Heli_A set to spawn children "Random_One". It should be set to "All"
Also set spawn children for the LayerTaskDestroy to "Random_One" to pick either the tanker or heli layer.

[chrome rampart]

Why don't you just place them in the tower, and give them a wait waypoint? Or remove all waypoints to keep them in place?

[leaden meteor]

by how combat ops are made, the ai can reenter the tower at own will and even move a bit inside that tower. with wait i cannot achieve this

[leaden meteor]

i have them at Random one because i wanted them to achieve either of this tasks but at all time the vehicles shall spawn anyway wether they have a destroy task or not.

For simpilicity i can remove the slot vehicles to only have slot destroy and set to ALL. but as i tested this already it wont finish the task.
it creates the task but oddly enought it shows the task at the left buttom corner and it never finishes

[leaden meteor]

Didn't work. I removed anything unnecessary to show even as basic as the implementation is, it won't work. Any other ideas?

even the TaskKill does not work so i feel like there is a bit more to that.
i have a Taskmanger and inside the GameMode there is the SCR_GameModeCombatOpsManager Component which have been setup just like the combat ops missions. am i missing something?

here for more informations

[chrome rampart]

i have them at Random one because i

Hello, I have a problem.

On the ALABAMA point I do not have the capture objectives, although the radio range is well configured with the Wisconsin base. Does anyone have an idea please?

[fleet girder]

Make sure one at least one HQ per faction has set value to is source and there should be something like enabled

You also need to add a value transmitter instead it being just a relay, something amongst those lines

[wet tide]

I don't really understand. In fact I use the Gramps scenario.

I just copied and pasted the entity of the SAN ANTONIO capture point which I placed as ALABAMA.

The AI ​​spawns, the HQ to be captured too but not the objective on the map.

Also, I have already changed the radio range distance, it connects well.
So I don't understand why it doesn't work

[fleet girder]

you need to change more than just the range

look there

[wet tide]

(My HQ is of course source)

[wet tide]

I have my HQ on source, and I have modified the transmission range of the two points. What else should be done?

[wet tide]

Because suddenly, I'm stuck, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. 😢

[winter ferry]

Hi there,
I'm using Scenario Framework and I would like to have a way for the player to assign themselves a task by interacting with a mission board that assigns them a random task in an Area. Is there a good way of doing this without script?

[chrome rampart]

I think it's possible under v1.3. Depends on the interaction you want. There is some conditional logics available to might be able to trigger a layer with tasks in it.
https://youtu.be/3nJP57Ii3No?si=x2p2uHFYDQc2vxYg

[winter ferry]

You can publish as private so only you can see the mod

[winter ferry]

Are you Blackheart 6?

[wet tide]

I still have this problem guys, if anyone has a solution please

[winter ferry]

You may have something unchecked in settings for that capture point

[wet tide]

I checked and no...

[winter ferry]

You compares all of the settings between San Antonio and Alabama?

[wet tide]

Yes already done

[leaden meteor]

how can i force for slot ai a Standing stance in combat? (my Sniper Tower AI is constantly crouching when in combat and achieving nothing not even shooting since they have a cover in front of them)

[winter ferry]

How can I copy the layers from the sample world over to my world the sample layers are all locked

[bitter verge]

AiCharacterMovementComponent @leaden meteor

[leaden meteor]

thanks

[bitter verge]

welcome

[chrome rampart]

Open the sample world. Highlight the layer, ctrl-C. Open your project, Ctrl-V.

[leaden meteor]

and what should this do?

[winter ferry]

thank you and yes also figured out how to duplicate worlds

[winter ferry]

If you are Blackheart_six have you published your wiki scenario?

[chrome rampart]

This doesn't work?

[ebon lynx]

Make a copy of the sniper rifle, you can set stance limits to only standing on that weapon, then give that sniper rifle to your ai

[winter ferry]

I just read the "In 1.3" part. The samples exist in 1.2 but they do not work it would appear

Some of it works but not all of it

[leaden meteor]

as soon as he goes into combat he ducks for cover

[leaden meteor]

but thats not so important rn.

[winter ferry]

Make a group with your sniper and change this setting to stand

[leaden meteor]

its not an aigroup. its an SlotAI and Slot

[winter ferry]

yep exactly and slotAI accepts a group input

Group has different settings available than charachter

[leaden meteor]

i see

[winter ferry]

So its easy to just duplicate a vanilla group change it to have only 1 person in group

and change whatever settings you want

[wet tide]

I still have this problem guys, if anyone has a solution please

[winter ferry]

You could also try making a custom Group_Base.et prefab and putting it the SlotAI

[leaden meteor]

When i want to use Tasks like TaskDestroy or TaskKill, in order to function with RHS i need to use the CampaignFactionManager_RHS.et
The Problem is then that the ai cannot detect each others faction as Enemys.

When i use the FactionManager FactionManager_Editor.et from RHS or the FactionManager_USMCxMSV which is no prefab but comes right from RHS_CombatOps_Arland (with US,USMC,USSR and MSV), then the task won't finish.
Weird behavior.

[winter ferry]

Hi there I copied the task destroy over from the SF samples and for some reason I do not get any task marker on my map any idea what I am missing?

[winter ferry]

I am having same issue as you but with scenario framework task marker

[winter ferry]

OK! Now I figured it out finally it took me forever but I was missing the Task Manager

[leaden meteor]

Fixed this. i used the FactionManager_USMCxMSV which is no prefab but comes right from RHS_CombatOps_Arland AND i had to use the Faction Key
I saw a message somewhere on the server but i cant find it. Whoever recommended to add an FactionKey, Thanks. It works now and every problem has been fixed.

[wet tide]

What?

[wet tide]

I still have this problem guys, if anyone has a solution please

[leaden meteor]

can i somewhow make waypoints invisible? Pressing G will also remove the move or rotate tool wich isn't what i want. i want the waypoints to be invisble

[wet tide]

You can make all entities invisible in the tool.

You click on your entity, and on the eye on the far left.

Example :

[leaden meteor]

already tried this but somewhow this doesnt count for waypoints

ohhhhh i found it

Debug shapes in workbench have to be turned off

[wet tide]

Actually, I hadn't thought about that

[leaden meteor]

^^

[wet tide]

Do you have the option or?

[leaden meteor]

yes the option is inside the SCR_ScenarioFrameworkSlotWaypoint Component

[leaden meteor]

oh i might have not undestood your question.

[wet tide]

Mhh, I don't have the same points as you so I don't have the option.

In any case I'm having a hard time with the objectives etc, so if you have any advice to give I'm all ears lol

[leaden meteor]

show me a picture of what you are looking at when trying to make waypoints invisble

also what problem do you have with objectives?

[wet tide]

In fact I based myself on the Gramps scenario, and I wanted to improve it by adding capture points, objectives and other things to do other than just capturing the area, such as destroying targets etc.

But I don't understand anything, I can't even make a capture point visible even though I copied and pasted lol @leaden meteor

[leaden meteor]

you want to mark the waypoint first if you want to make them invisible

i see other options because you are not using the same prefab

[wet tide]

As I said, I just copied and pasted an existing Gramps conflict mode objective, but the problem is that it doesn't work and I don't understand why.

[leaden meteor]

why copy everything when you can make a sub scene out of it. everything works just as intendet and you can make changes to it. much easier than trying to understand every little part of it

open the file for Grampsconflict mode and then press on the new file. it will ask you if you want to make a new scene or a subscene of the current world you got open. then from there on you can edit the mission

i believe you then can override existing parts of the map

or components

[wet tide]

That's already what I did, I even already sorted out what I wanted to keep or not, I did exactly what you told me so that I could understand how the conflict mod works, the problem being that I'm French who doesn't speak English, so the language barrier is very complicated for me lol.

As I said, I took an already existing point, which I copied/pasted elsewhere while modifying it.

However, I don't know why but it is not displayed on the map as an objective, even though the point is captureable in game.

"Alabama"

[leaden meteor]

hmmm

You said you have the taskmanger....hmmm.... you might need to add a factionkey..

[wet tide]

I don't know at all how it works, I really have a hard time understanding how it all works, like the AI, I don't understand why it's FIA that spawns instead of USSR, the same I tried to change their factions but it doesn't work LOL.

Are you talking about that?

[leaden meteor]

yes thats the task manager.

[wet tide]

So I don't understand at all, this time it works like magic and kervel no longer works lol

[leaden meteor]

but
if you do not understand anything of this you might start with your own mission at first. getting to know the tools and taking a look at the vanilla conflict mode.

but i might give you that. i dont know but there might be a limit to how many objectives in a conflict mode can be active.
take a look: caputure a point and see what happens. maybe its is programmed to limit the available capture points

[wet tide]

I already set the transmission distance, so it's weird

I don't understand the use of "TaskManager"

[leaden meteor]

Afaik its just to handle any task you give in

you give in tasks by creating a LayerTask of the whished type and inside it the Slot"..." whatever type you used.
so for example

[wet tide]

Mhh, okay.

Do you have any good tutorials on YouTube to recommend to me?

I have already watched those of TPM

[leaden meteor]

Hello,
Does anybody know how can i choose which type of unit will get into the vehicle when choosing a vehicle for Mounted_Infantry in QRF Dispatcher.
I already tried to make the vehicle part of the faction like here:

but it seems that this does not make a difference because i still get the old soviet units in these vehicles.

Here is a picture of what i am talking about

[warm mica]

i'd assume it's configured on vehicle's SCR_BaseCompartmentManagerComponent

[leaden meteor]

okey yeah that worked but partially.

so the ai has stopped using another ai buddy to open gates rathan than driving around now.

and for the UAZ469 there arent any more slots to fill. the component just shows 2 seats where i can set things up. and therefor the other seats will get mounted with USSR Soldiers.

also this somehow fixed that the ai wont stop after entering the completion radius. Reported here #enfusion_ai message

[leaden meteor]

nevermind i can set more compartmentsolts

but the rest is as stated

ok so it seems that this was just a glitch. the ai does indeed stil use an ai buddy to open gates

but adding more compartment slots did not fix it

even for the btr this isn't working correctly altough the btr has enough predefined compartmentslots which i all have modified

[fleet girder]

Hry guys, any ideas how I can set up some "restriction" zone where only opposing team is not supposed to go?

I tried restriction zone but they vere unreliable and just gave a warning lol

Currently I have a trigger that kills other faction, but the probpem is, even when I set faction affiliation to US on HQ it still is random

1. How to set up restriction zone accprding to HQ

OR

2. What amI doing wrong with setting eachh HQ to one faction?

I do not want to edit prefab of HQ but seems like I wi do if no other suggestions come

Btw its conflict gamemode

[leaden meteor]

Does somebody know why the ai isn't following their patrol routes after having them despawned and spawned again by "Dynamic Despawn"? and is there a way to fix this without excluding them from Dynamic Despawn

[blissful tusk]

Anyone know how servers are changing the scenerio name for the conflict -everon but it not being a mod so PS5 players can still join?

[glass niche]

mission header parameters ☝️ options in your server config file

[chrome rampart]

Is this a vehicle patrol?

[blissful tusk]

@glass niche I was on that track with the mission headers but there isnt much documetnation on this. I can't set it via string it has to be a object... so assuming i need to point it to a missionheader.conf file... Trying to figure this out with no docs but so far struggling

but at least knowing this is the right way I am sure I will eventually get it

[chrome rampart]

Are you talking about the vanilla conflict scenario?

[blissful tusk]

Yeah

I seen some servers have the vanilla conflict but the scenerio name is like "Conflict - Everon (High-End Server)"

[silk sigil]

there is a mission header section in server configs.

[chrome rampart]

Enter in config.json

"scenarioId": "{ECC61978EDCC2B5A}Missions/23_Campaign.conf"

Have no mods in the mods section.

[blissful tusk]

yeah I just searched this discord for mission header, seeing a decent amount of info to work from.. not seeing anything about custom name but still looking

[silk sigil]

some params could be overrided in it.

[chrome rampart]

That just looks like the server name. Not the scenario name

Screen shot it?

[blissful tusk]

Its the scenerio name one second

[silk sigil]

you can use mission header in server config json file to override some params.

not sure if it works for scenario name

[blissful tusk]

I understand, but still not seeing a list of full parms that can be overridden, or one that is specific to the scenerio name when searching through this discord and seeing others asking/posting their server config files using the missionheader settings

[silk sigil]

open the workbench. then you can see this file.

[blissful tusk]

Ahh good idea. I will open that file and see whats in it

[silk sigil]

all the params can be adjusted are listed.

[chrome rampart]

 World "{17AC2E3AE582332C}Worlds/MP/MilOps_Everon.ent"

 m_sSaveFileName "milOps_everon"
 m_iMapMarkerLimitPerPlayer 5
}

[blissful tusk]

got it yeah I think its the m_sName

[chrome rampart]

you have to format to config.json

[blissful tusk]

Will test and report back. Thank you guys!

yeah I see the formatting now

looking up other examples in this discord

[silk sigil]

you're running black six MilOps I?

[blissful tusk]

not my screenshot

[chrome rampart]

no.

[silk sigil]

I thought it's removed in the workshop. I played it before.

[chrome rampart]

IDK. I don't have anything running right now because of all the issues.

This is from my AMP Panel. I've never used it.

[blissful tusk]

Confirmed m_sName is the correct option

[silk sigil]

you did it

[blissful tusk]

appreciate the help!

[blissful tusk]

I formatted mine so if I want to test with these other mission parameters its formatted with standard json

But now after tracing down creating custom scenerios... I might actually create a custom one. As long as there is no mods, its still playable on PS5 right?

[chrome rampart]

No

[blissful tusk]

Oh : (

[chrome rampart]

Any custom scenario you make has to be uploaded to the workshop and installed on the server as a mod

[blissful tusk]

Well I will wait patiently for PS5 mod support then

[chrome rampart]

Yea it's coming I thought?

[blissful tusk]

Eventually. I am surprised since Sony gave bohemia a hard no on DayZ mods

I am not holding my breath for it. I am good with the Vanilla scenerio

[silk sigil]

override mission header through server config doesn't make new scenarios. so maybe you can try it with your PS5 device. then you get the answer.

[blissful tusk]

I know PS5 can join my server this way. but I meant like actually creating a custom scenario like changing the base locations etc.

[silk sigil]

I see. custom scenarios need to be a mod.

can PS5 players use GM to add things in game currently?

[blissful tusk]

Not sure, my brother plays on PS5 i play on PC..

Isnt GM its own game mode? outside the PvP conflict?

[chrome rampart]

Admins can login and access GM

[silk sigil]

you can login as admin to use GM

[blissful tusk]

interesting. I will have to play around with that

[silk sigil]

admin password must be set in config.

or admin steam ID

[blissful tusk]

theres a way to set the playerID as admin though righ?

I saw that somewhere. I'll find it

[silk sigil]

yeah, you can add your steam ID in admin list

[blissful tusk]

I think I got it. Had to get the array set in the correct format

I wonder if PS5's have an ID I can use or not... will test with that later with my brother. maybe an ID gets logged there... or he can use the password

[silk sigil]

yep. he can use passwordAdmin.

Heya, did you find a solution?

[dark rover]

hey there

quick question

i have a custom scenario with pre defind groups and if i start the session it creates the groups but i cant create a new group when the game has loaded

is there anything that i missed or am i just not getting it

[chrome rampart]

If you check the box "Create Only Predefined Groups". That is exactly how it works.
Couple of options you can try....

1. Create predefined group, but uncheck the box "Create Only Predefined Groups". It will create the group based on the params in the faction manager.
2. Override "PlayableGroup.et" and edit there.

[dark rover]

Thanks I will check

still have to setup some prefabs but does 95% of the work.

[opal harbor]

I’ve seen where servers have taken scenarios and edited them as their own. No matter what I do. Making sure they are in the correct Reforger tools addons folder, etc it’s always locked and will not load in tools.

I’m so confused on how these scenarios are being edited. Especially ones on addon maps.

[fleet girder]

Hi guys,

can you please point me in a right direction where I can make the vehicle spawn in with certain items in its inventory?

Thanks

[fleet girder]

Found it

By a coincidence, I would never find it on my own lol

ScenarioFramework Feature Request version 1.3
Add SCR_CampaignBuildingManagerComponent to GameModeSF.et configured to use with compositions to add supplies and logistics to the game mode. And all other relative components needed to function correctly.

Currently you cannot drop in for example a Helipad and have it function as expected.

[dreamy flame]

Any luck? getting the same issue
4 groups setup "Create Only Predefined Groups" is disabled however I'm still unable to create a new group via the gorup menu in game

[dark rover]

na sorry didnt work on the project till now

but still the same error probalby

if i find something ill let you know

[dreamy flame]

Likewise 👍

[dark rover]

if anyone wanna test

dependency is only ConflictPVERemixVanilla2.0

[chrome rampart]

Try overriding playablegroup.et?

[dreamy flame]

Yeah no joy, I dont believe theres actually an issue here though - loaded vanilla conflict and cant create a new group guessing its just because im testing via WB without a second player.

I reckon it just doesnt function if theres only 1 player present

[chrome rampart]

Oh lol. Yea you have to test in dedicated environment with players. I haven't tested in awhile if unchecking box, and creating multiple groups will work. It use to.

I know checking the box locks to only predefined groups. I use to control server numbers

[dreamy flame]

Yep 😄 Id say just leaving the box unchecked should do it cc @dark rover

[dark rover]

same

[chrome rampart]

double edge sword. Depends on what you need. Sometimes I don't want players spread out over groups, one or two per group.

[dreamy flame]

Yeah definitely depends on what ya need, we run PVE so its mainly being used for the pre-defined radio freqs actually filling the groups is done by people in game so no issues there luckily

[chrome rampart]

Have you tried adding channels to the radios, one for each group. Works pretty well too.

[dark rover]

what do you mean with that?

[chrome rampart]

override the radio, ie prc77, and add transceivers to baseradiocomponent.

I take the PRC68 add 4 "channels" and set the frequency. Make the tunable range .5 on either side of the freq so the player can "turn off" that channel.

Then use the field manual or journal to show the channels.

[dreamy flame]

That's actually really useful, especially when used with the predefined group system it fits perfectly for what I needed. Our SL's in missions would need two LR freq's and 1/2SR's

I didnt wanna add too many channels and overhwlem the guys but being able to add that exra LR freq is a lifesaver, thanks man

[chrome rampart]

I've made vehicle intercom channels and intra-squad radios

give it real short range of 2 meters for vehicles.

[bitter verge]

@minor garden this may help saves me explaining lol

[whole raptor]

it seems i can't upload to the WS:

Anyone else?

nice, thank you!

[shadow galleon]

Just gives me time to put more into this update tho 😄

~1.5k lines done 8^)

[unique plover]

whats the best way to keep a Sniper stationary in ScenarioFramwork? they just will not stay!!

[dreamy flame]

It also appears you need to have extra "squad names" available in the callsign setup than the amount of predefined groups
@dark rover

EDIT: And it appears to only work with less than 2 predefined groups... 😤

[wise junco]

Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I setup up my ConflictMilitaryBase and the vehicles are there and I can hear the HQ radio but the tent isn't showing up. It acts like its there but its not. Any idea why?

Also when you first spawn in it takes about 20-30 seconds before you are able to click on the HQ to actually spawn there. Thanks in advance guys!

[wet tide]

Hello, I also have a problem.

For my "ConflictMilitaryBase" I have 2 HUMVEE is a transport truck that spawns.

I tried to look in the "SCR_CampaignSpawnPointGroup_2" as well as the "CampaignHQRadioBase" but I did not find or modify/delete these vehicles.
Anyone have an idea please? THANKS

[wild moth]

Override the campaign faction

[wet tide]

??

[wild moth]

It should be somewhere at the bottom

Us_campaign faction

Config or something

[wet tide]

Are you talking about that?
But I don't want to change the Faction, just the vehicles

[wild moth]

Nope, Configs > factions. Then override the US campaign faction

[wet tide]

I don't see where and "configs -> factions"

[wild moth]

Arma Reforger > configs > factions

Not a component

Its a config

[wet tide]

But in which files lol?

In the tools? In the config file? Or that lol?

A little more details...

[wild moth]

US_Campaign

[wet tide]

Oh thanks

[wet tide]

thanks

RESOURCES (E): Failed to save file '$ArmaReforger:Configs/Factions/US_Campaign.conf'
RESOURCES (E): File '$ArmaReforger:Configs/Factions/US_Campaign.conf' is read-only

Is that normal?

[wild moth]

Right click then override the file

[wet tide]

How so ?

You want me to duplicate the file and place it in my mod, right?

[wild moth]

No override it in your mod

Don’t duplicate it

[wet tide]

I don't have any replacement options, I don't understand?

[wild moth]

You dont have an override option but you can duplicate it??

[wet tide]

Sorry but you are not very clear in your explanations, making it difficult to understand you.

I only have one option to duplicate in my mod.

[wild moth]

Override

Or navigate to override

[wet tide]

So it duplicates it well in my mod that's what I'm saying

[wild moth]

Yes 🙌

[chrome rampart]

If you duplicate an item and don't change the name of it acts as an override.
My rule of thumb for override vs duplicate.
One time use = duplicate.
Many time use = override.
Linkage to other dependencies = override.

[winter ferry]

@chrome rampart do you have any advice for using this feature?

Here is what Im trying to call

    //! Addition to player XP
    //! \param[in] rewardID
    //! \param[in] multiplier
    //! \param[in] volunteer
    //! \param[in] addDirectly
    void AddPlayerXP(SCR_EXPRewards rewardID, float multiplier = 1.0, bool volunteer = false, int addDirectly = 0) ```

From the Player XP component attached to the Player Controller

RewardID "CHEAT" is from the Campaign Task Rewards config

Basically I'm trying to add XP to the player when the Destroy Task object is destroyed

[chrome rampart]

Did you add it to the XPRewards.conf?

ENEMY_KILL_VEH?

[gritty vortex]

hes back!!!!

[chrome rampart]

I thought the issue of civilians not being neutral in regards to clear tasks was fixed in v1.3. The task won't complete if you kill opfor and civilians are present in the slot area.

[wild elk]

Hello Everyone !!

I need help to our conflict because we made about 140 capture points and 140 base callsigns, but still its double the first city after reaching 69 original base callsigns

[winter ferry]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-biden-presidential-debate-huh-confused-gif-9508832355999336631

[wild elk]

i mean names of city

and we have lot of Alabamas xD

[chrome ice]

I don't work in exp. like you sir, but I thought Yethe said it was a box for factions to be ignored by the task somewhere

[chrome ice]

Also, glad you're still here. When I saw the other account turn to a deleted user, I may or may not have cried a little

[fleet bear]

does any one have problem with Game setup Plugin? I have a problem

[warm crow]

Can anyone remember where the configuration is to enable/disable the ability for the enemy to listen in on radio comms/freqs?

[chrome ice]

I know in faction manager is where you set up the radio freq. For teams and encryption. Probably there? I'm not at home, to look

[warm crow]

I did look in the factions manager, but could be blind. I thought it was in the gamemode manager previously, a simple tick box to untick or tick.

[chrome ice]

I've never used it. I might get lucky and find it if I poke around BH6 vids or BI's wiki. But I'm at work right now, so assuming it's with the other radio stuff is the best I got right now, sorry

[warm crow]

All good mate, appreciate the reply

[winter ferry]

There is a setting in the server JSON config file

"VONCanTransmitCrossFaction": bool

Also love your videos @warm crow thank you for everything you do

[warm crow]

You are a champion, thanks a heap. I thought I was loosing my mind looking for it within the configs

[warm crow]

No problem at all 🙂

[wild trellis]

no update tool, but you can use the workbench tools on exp (1.3) right now. No idea how that log spam relates to your question?

[charred wasp]

Because 1.3 does no longer support CombatType from Framwork. So you get a ton of Errors in the log

[silk sigil]

so all the slotAI/slotAI groups are f***ed

[charred wasp]

Dont know, think Yethe is in Vacation currently

There are a lot stuff in Framework Script which is Obsolete now

[silk sigil]

I think @grand arch has investigated the 1.3 AI combat behavior for a period.

[charred wasp]

Its now called CombatMode

WOrks different

[silk sigil]

1.3 truly changed many things🐸

[charred wasp]

Yeah 😦 Need hours/days to fix all

[silk sigil]

tons of work to do

[wild trellis]

Better get started! Probably not much time left!

[charred wasp]

lol, first BIS need to fix there own scripts 😄

[silk sigil]

it seems like developing in experimental branch would be a normality from now on.

[wild trellis]

I mean it sounds like they changed their scripts. So it's your job to update your mod to use the new scripts instead of the obsolete scripts.

[charred wasp]

Nope, they using old stuff in Framwork, which is no longer supported

i think yethe did not yet fully update the Framwork to the new version.

[wild trellis]

Oh ok. Well I guess you'll have to wait then. Everything compiles fine for me in 1.3 so it must be specific to scenario framework.

[silk sigil]

yep. PVE conflict works fine in experimental branch.

[charred wasp]

compileing is not the problem, but if you used combatType on SlotAi, it will no longer work

There are also changes in some prefabs where some components now added twice, like RplComp and Hierarchy

[wild trellis]

Yes a quick check of the code says that is now obsolete. They are not going to fix that. It says to use combat mode instead now.

There is also a note that soldiers no longer have their own combat mode, it's now dictated by group.

[grand arch]

Yes there were quite some changes.
I can only remember the SetStance() and SetMovementType() being obsolet.
Too long ago i'm using 1.3 since day 1 which now already is some couple months.

[chrome rampart]

Welcome to the major update sequence...

[glass niche]

I able to appreciate the ammount of work that went into the scenario framework after using it for a few weeks.

[versed saffron]

Hi, we're setting up a server for a PvE conflict using Garmps. We have more than 69 capture points, and when we try to change the names for capture points beyond the 69th, the locality with index 0 gets duplicated. Does anyone know how to fix this properly? (We've increased the indices to higher values.)

[obtuse solar]

Is there a way to modify the map widgets in SF? I'd like to remove the Objectives one as I don't want to use the tasks and add a Journal/Briefing component instead.

[versed saffron]

@nova onyx could you help with this? Is there any possibility to add more than 79 callsign for US fraction?

[chrome rampart]

yep. Just find .layout that controls the map widget.

[winter ferry]

I was able to stumble my way through scripting and get the XP system to work with Scenario Task Framework
https://medal.tv/games/screen-capture/clips/jJPwuFKrhZlfWTyv4?invite=cr-MSxNdGosNDI2OTQ3OTIs

[nova onyx]

Hi. I don’t have that much knowledge of how conflict works. I would say it should be possible but I do not how in detail.

[final flower]

Hi, sorry for bothering, do you know who could help us then? We don't really want to @ random devs in hopes of getting some help, it's probably something really prosaic and simple but we need help of someone who is a bit smarter than us 😁

[waxen fossil]

You would have to override the faction config file that contains the array of capture point names

Look in the config directory. You should be able to find it.

[nova onyx]

Maybe ask in #reforger_conflict ?

[final flower]

I thought it's related to scenario itself but maybe it's worth giving #reforger_conflict a try, thank you so much, sorry for pings

[chrome rampart]

I am glad we've change the name of this channel to enfusion_scenario, but IMHO we still need 2 channels, enfusion_campaign, enfusion_scenarioframework. They are 2 distinct game modes that handle game components in completely different ways.

I suggest
enfusion_campaign
enfusion_scenarioframework
enfusion_captureandhold

reforger_conflict (exists)
reforger_combatOps (exists)
reforger_capturehold (exists, should be moved up to Arma Reforger Catagory)

This would help folks get more focused information they need from those who deal regularly with these game modes.

How much does it cost to create 3 or 5 more channels in discord? Per channel charge? /S

[charred wasp]

Guys... Exp. V1.3 Patrol Cycle Waipoints no longer working....

[chrome rampart]

Put in a feedback ticket?

[unique plover]

Is it possible to keep a Sniper planted to a small area like in front of a window?? ive tried defend and reducing the area, ive tried Scout he does stay but then moves after hearing a shot, sorry if im missing something simple

[chrome rampart]

Do you want him just to be a target to kiil? Try using slot.et. Or add a wait waypoint to him and make the priority 2000.

[unique plover]

i do want him to shoot back, i just want him to hold his position, will he shoot back on a Wait?

[chrome rampart]

IDK. You have to test. But a priority of 2000 sets him in place and shouldn't move. The AI is going to move and take cover when you shoot at them. To have them just stand there and shoot and not take cover doesn't make any sense in behavior. If you can't find a solution that works for you in vanilla components, try CRX AI mod. Or better yet make your own behavior tree. The greatness of enfusion, don't like something, make it yourself.

[unique plover]

i dont mind them moving and taking cover, its if they hear a shot at the other end of the town and they decide to investigate lol, thanks tho ill check that stuff out, love the videos btw

[silk sigil]

use defend/loiter but very small finish range. then set his perception factor to more than 5 and skill expert. so the sniper will shoot you at far range because of his high skill level but keep his position.

[charred wasp]

V1.3 Patrol Issues For those interested: In version 1.2, it was possible for the CycleWaypoint to be outside the layer containing the PatrolWaypoints. This is no longer possible starting with version 1.3! This means the CycleWaypoint must be in the same layer as the PatrolWaypoints. Otherwise our units will not move.

[wild trellis]

That seems to not be an issue in conflict mode patrol waypoints fyi.

[chrome rampart]

Try this AI Action?

[charred wasp]

You can easy check it..

AREA
-> LAYER
--> SLOTAI
--> CYCLEWP
--> WP_LAYER
----> WP_Patrol1
----> WP_Patrol2

Not working... but if you move the CYCLEWP into the WP_LAYER it works again

[unique plover]

thanks ill give it ago now

[unique plover]

ill try thanks

[chrome rampart]

In regards to having to place the cycle wp in the same layer as the other wp's, it is a problem. Especially since no 2 slotAI's can use the same cycle wp, if you want randomization then each slotAI must have their own cycle way point. Under the 1.2 and earlier system you could share a group of patrol way points and give each slotAI their own cycle wp. Which made for an organized tree.

You can still use multiple cycles, one per slotAI, and get randomization. You just have to put all the way points in one layer. But this means you can't use select children "Random_Multiple" on the layer because it contains the cycle wp as well.

This works but you can't use randomized_multiple on the layer because of the cycle way points nested inside.

How to have a trigger activated by player entering area, spawn an prefab somewhere on the map?

which game mode?

I think game editor. Not sure first try modding. I figured out the trigger but now im getting that cannot spawn layer beuase it's rated 1 or something

SCRIPT (E): Can't spawn object Layer3 - the slot has 0 activation type set instead of 1

Why not check the map which task gets spawned? So you can see if they are the same. Is save/load enabled? i can not reproduce the issue. But i setup my layers a bit different. I think its the RANDOM_MULTI

Ive been watching these recently and have been the most helpful for sure. My game mode is Editor_Full. I'm making a small race track on arland. I'm trying to use a trigger to spawn an item, that will reset and spawn again or reset a certain time later.

Hello Gents.

I'm trying to change my scenario year date to 2021 on Eden/Everon

It doesn't seem to change and is locked.

I have made an override file on TimeandWeather.et, my weather/time changes but not the year date.

Any help would be appreciated.

[chrome rampart]

GameMode_editor_full is the game master mode, so you can't use scenario framework components. You need to set a regular trigger.

[leaden meteor]

can i somehow achieve that a convoi of vehicles sticks together?

[halcyon patrol]

So sorry to resurrect this ancient message but do you ever remember figuring out how to place a map icon that wasn't the red square/triangle with the small name?

[digital knot]

I never figured out. Doc was basically non existant at this time, I ended up being very frustrated with what I figured would be a very very achievable task and gave up. I basically never tried out again

[halcyon patrol]

Thanks for the reply.

Yea, I am finding it quite odd that this is not something very very simple but no examples online and nothing concrete when searching through chat history on the discord. Odd.

[dark minnow]

Is it possible to add base building mechanics into a combat ops scenario?

[hollow snow]

Use a Scenarioframework-Slotmarker from there u have all the options u want military/Custom map markers and a text description too of your choice-worth mentioning that marker can be deleted on an action after task finished or deleted by players

[hollow snow]

Add a CampaignBuildingmanagerComponent to your gamemode from there u can Edit/disable, which uses the freeroambuilding.conf

[raven dome]

Dumb question but where exactly does this go? Do i just toss it in right under this part?

That seems like an odd limitation considering the open workbench for all these interactions. Thanks for clearing that up!

[chrome rampart]

That was part of a discussion for the mission header portion of the server config.json to change the name of the scenario in the game server listing.
Look at the mission header line

[raven dome]

I appreciate the response! I got it figured out now

[chrome rampart]

sorry for the delay I was warhamming today.

[dark minnow]

How do you do so?

[wary acorn]

Your missions are UP again ?

ignore, I saw on discord

[wild trellis]

Rt click, override

[reef grotto]

Heey people, got a question, where can I find the option how many bases the people have capture to end the mission?🤔 I think I'm blind

[torn tendon]

Assuming this means in vanilla conflict I would check the applicable scenario config in the workbench

Somewhere in reforger>configs>missions in the resource browser. Idk exactly I can't check right now so just off the top of my head

[wild trellis]

I think it's both in the game mode and the mission config. Just set the number to the amount of control points you want to require for a win. If you are adding more than in vanilla, you will probably need to make some additional points control points in it's military base component, it's just a check box.

[frosty turret]

He guys I have a question I downloaded this scenario but he have lags server restart like a dependency but my server restart every 5h how I can fix this

I hoste my server in nitrado

If someone can help me

Change scenarios?

[wild trellis]

My mod, linear conflict, has a config file, but it doesn't work with nitrado's setup. Maybe try a different host?

[leaden meteor]

can i somehow edit a scenario of arma itself?
I want to edit values of a prefab but i am unable because its locked.

[wild trellis]

#enfusion_scenario message

[leaden meteor]

wow never have i ever been so close to my answer

[leaden meteor]

i cant find it.

[wild trellis]

I see Select Parent, which means: what you're trying to edit is a part of another prefab. Im guessing this is editing someone elses scenario? In that case its a little more complicated. You need to create a sub-scene of the base map that scenario is based on. Like for my conflict pve I used Eden.et world, made a sub-scene (under file>new menu in the world editor), and then opened Campaign_CTI.et world which is the conflict everon scenario and copied all the parts of the scenario and pasted it in same position on the sub-scene I created. Hope that makes sense!

[leaden meteor]

Coop_CombatOps_Eden by arma and i made a subscene already
but i still cant edit stuff

[wild moth]

Copy all the prefabs to a new world

[lean scroll]

How can you do this?

[wild moth]

On the default layer right click then select all entity then copy it and paste it into a new world

Hey guys,
I tried to setup the gamemaster gamemode on my custom terrain. I used the "Game Mode Setup" in the tools to do it and configured the navmesh and map.
I have now run into the problem that i can't move my camera when in gamemaster or arma vision mode. Moving around as a player is fine. The console does not throw any related errors. Can anyone please help me?

[lean scroll]

@chrome rampart great links. Watched them and I still don't have a full answer. I am currently pouring through all his vids. Let me be specific for my issue. Even if I copy the entities from locked Arland over to my subscene, those locked entities still remain because they cannot be modified or move or deleted.
I attached an image highlighting the items I'd like to remove from the base (locked)map. Is that possible?

[wild trellis]

Need more info, I can't see what you're trying to override. This might help you for editing a scenario. #enfusion_scenario message

[dark minnow]

https://i.imgur.com/eVp1YOV.png want to override the scenarion gamemode with my own here

[indigo marlin]

Can anybody point me in the right direction for setting up factions and player limits on a scenario
Like can I make one side only have 2 players and the other side have 5

[lean scroll]

I'm new to workbench, but this might what you are looking for.

[indigo marlin]

Thanks looks promising.

[chrome rampart]

Let me try something, and I'll let you know. I think I know the answer but want to test.

[lean scroll]

Cheers. I thought i got it by deleted the specific instances, not the entity, but no luck. Shows back up on project load.

[chrome rampart]

I think you can do it.

1. Create a project with an empty world and save it.
2. Open the non-empty world, and select and copy all entities in the locked layer.
3. Open your empty world, and paste on same position.

Now you see it.

Now you don't

[lean scroll]

Ok you are correct with this. Worked. Now I have to copy mod stuff over but I can at least adjust main map items.
Thanks for the clear explanation. Feel like im going crazy trying to piece things together from web search and youtube vids.

[wild trellis]

See the link I posted earlier, there's a few things you need to do to be able to edit that scenario. Assuming the scenario is able to be edited...

[rocky sedge]

I found my error: I was missing the camera manager 😅

[indigo marlin]

Can anybody point me in the right direction why scenario won't show up in game scenario list?

[willow phoenix]

Probably a dumb question but how do I go about making a task only spawn after completing MULTIPLE tasks, I know how to make a task spawn on finish of another task but I don't want a certain task to spawn till the first 3 are ALL completed. Any help appreciated!

[indigo marlin]

Is this part right?

To test scenario locally

[iron canopy]

If I'm not wrong, only way to test is via Workbench without publishing to the workshop

Can use the peer tool or the dedicated server tool plugin within World Editor

[indigo marlin]

Ok. I was watching a tutorial that was 2 years old that said you could do it like this.

[iron canopy]

Not sure then, sorry

[indigo marlin]

Np thanks anyway!

[indigo marlin]

GUID matches also

[warm mica]

try to change your path to "D:\ReforgerAddons"

as in: folder that contains your addon's folder

[indigo marlin]

Btw the downloads part of the startup paramater works

[warm mica]

also, may need (or not) the -addons 64B4542A8DFA0783 (or whatever your mod id is) for it to get loaded, i don't really know

[indigo marlin]

Game mode with Localhost + peer tool should still work without workshop backend yes?

I got it! I am the smartest man alive

[chrome rampart]

Use a logic counter. Assuming this is in the scenario framework.

[indigo marlin]

Is there a folder or somewhere I can look for scenario .conf files?

Like where do they store when you make / download a mod.

Oh nevermind I found them on the mods page scenarios tab. my bad

[charred wasp]

Cool... 1.3 - SlotAi spawning the wrong Faction. https://feedback.bistudio.com/T189319

[chrome rampart]

Hmmmm interesting. Haven't seen this one yet.

Using sample island produces strange stuff sometimes.

[charred wasp]

Takes me 4 hours to figure it out why the unit always spawning as US

[chrome rampart]

Sounds about right.

[charred wasp]

The world does not makes a diffrent

[chrome rampart]

Shouldnt, just telling ya what I've seen.

[indigo marlin]

Can anybody tell me why my server will start with default scenarios but not with any mod scenarios? I copied the scenarioid straight from the workshop page.

[charred wasp]

https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/976119935875026964

[glass niche]

Does anybody know what's the process for changing the "Day of the Month"? I haven't figured out how to overwrite entity instances in the base layer.

[cunning raft]

is it better to have rplcomponent enabled or disabled for static baked in entities on a map?

i heard the speaker say something about "dont disable rplcomponent willy nilly" in the last bootcamp but why would static baked map entities need to be replicated at all?

[autumn bear]

Is there a tutorial how to create a custom game mode? I would like to work on a mod that only one objective is active for two factions. When its captured the objective changes randomly on the map.

Just like Domination game mode from arma 2

[chrome rampart]

I would start here...
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:General_Game_Mode_Setup

[chrome rampart]

I think the TimeAndWeather manager is not functioning as expected. In regards to overwrite entities in base layer, are you talking about the world entities?

#enfusion_scenario message

[indigo marlin]

Will this cause issues or is there a better way I could go about this? I moved all the managers from the parent template world to my world so I can edit them. Also can i somehow delete the CAH_Baseworld since it's empty now? Right click has delete ghosted.

[indigo marlin]

It automatically adds the greyed out ones back to CAH_BaseWorld

I tried hiding them and it still throws an error for duplicates

[wild trellis]

Maybe the second half of this message will help you out #enfusion_scenario message

[bitter verge]

so after waiting all this time to upload im now getting WORLD_LOAD_ERROR lol just one thing after another

[charred wasp]

Create your own Prefab from the managers you need.. btw. PreLoadManager and DestructionManager is already in the BaseWorld. If you like to edit them, you should override the Prefab in your mod

[indigo marlin]

Ok I got that figured out. Now I can't get a slot ai to spawn lol but gotta head out for the day.

[uncut socket]

Hey. Been playing linear conflict on northcom vanilla server, how can i edit conflict scenario like that to be played in vanilla server?

[charred wasp]

Check the sample worlds from ScenarioFramework

[indigo marlin]

Thank you kindly I will check them out when I get home later

I do have to say it is pretty ridiculous for a product / company of this magnitude to not have proper documentation.

[charred wasp]

For?

[indigo marlin]

Enfusion

Absolutely love the engine though.

[charred wasp]

For all basic stuff the docs are fine. And for the Framwork there are Tutorials in the world folder...

[indigo marlin]

Okay yeah I missed the tutorials so maybe that will fill the Gaps that I'm looking for

Once I learn it I will make my own tutorial videos and documentation for people

[torn tendon]

I've felt the same way while learning. There is a decent amount of docs but a lot is still missing. But I get that full documentation would be a big effort

[indigo marlin]

Yeah would definitely be a huge undertaking. I was also surprised that there's not more of a Community about teaching and learning the engine. There's two or maybe three YouTube guys that have tutorials and most of them are from 2022.

[torn tendon]

I've also noticed a lot of the good teaching/tutorial videos I've found are like 2 years old.

I've started adding all the good learning material I find into a Google doc to help other people in my milsim group learn

[indigo marlin]

Nice. Yeah I'm going to make my own tutorial videos and documents once I get a little bit better handle on things.

[chrome rampart]

Why don't you just use the game mode setup and adjust from there?

[fleet girder]

Hey guys, respawning with custom loadout takes only 50$
I want to make it to take full cost when spawning on point. I have been looking but I can not find where to set it

can someone please point me in the right direction?

[cold abyss]

Does anyone know if you can edit a vanilla conflict scenario for a MP server but the server browser still consider it to be vanilla?

I've noticed vanilla servers that have altered capture points

[fleet girder]

.

[indigo marlin]

It's all so convoluted I don't know why there can't just be something that says do this and this and this to make a slot ai spawn.

I'm sure I can figure it out but will take way more time than it should imo.

[charred wasp]

Whats the problem? Area -> Layer -> SlotAi done

[indigo marlin]

What area? What layer? What slot?

What component / prefab for each

I can't just make empty gameobjects and put scripts on them apparently

[charred wasp]

Omg like i told you, just open a Tutorial world, there you can see how to setup the Hierarchy.

The stuff is already in the Game as Prefabs, you do not need to create new entity

And.. its 2025.. there are tons of youtube videos showing that

[indigo marlin]

What mf folder dude? I don't see how / where to open the tutorials you are referring to. That's all I need

[wild moth]

Calm down, its the folder that says “samples”

[indigo marlin]

Ah yes I was just going to ask that.

F me for needing to know where the shit was located i guess

But yeah that's exactly what I'm talking about. There should just be something that says add this and this and this prefabs nested together to do whatever generic action.

And I have a hunch theres a few people who could do that but refuse to for whatever reasons

I'll do it for people since it's so mf complicated for the pro users.
Step 1: "Type area in the mf resource browser and drag mf area.et to the world"

Step 2: "Search for mf LayerTask.et (or whatever variation of it you need) and drag it as a child under the mf area from step 1

[indigo marlin]

Step 3: Drag mf Layer.et as a child of step 2

Step 4: Drag slotai.et as a child of step 3, and assign a character prefab on the SCR_ScenarioFrameworkSlotAI component of it.

ai spawned for me now. Probably some things to learn / work out still, but finally got this far.

[orchid glacier]

Howdy everyone,

Hope all your uploads are merry and enjoying Workbench again (sadists).

Summary of the Issue: I’m having a bit of hassle with SCR_SaveLoadComponent. I am trying to create a base template (Spawns, kits, vehicles) for a group of mates to build missions off. My intent is to have this “base” mission be available on the workshop then they can download it and slap down some OPFOR in the base game scenario editor (without touching Enfusion).
From my testing I’ve found the json file is successfully being saved in the Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\profile\.save\app—----_user—---------------\sessions folder but when clicking load in the scenario editor no saved games are present.

Steps Taken:

1. I have followed this guide: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework#Save_and_Load by adding the SCR_ScenarioFrameworkStruct to serialize the data.
2. Loaded the scenario in the Enfusion Workbench (This works totally fine)
3. Upload it to the WorkShop but then I'm unable to recreate my success in the workbench.

Requested Info:
Is this:
A- known bug in arma reforger saving/loading scenarios on modded maps?
B- Something buggery happening in the mission logs?
C- Me being an idiot and not following simple instructions?

ANYONE KNO HOW TO MAKE A AAS MODE LIKE WCS. ? MY RADIO CONNECTS TO ALL THE BASSES NOT JUST THE ONE I WANT

[chrome rampart]

https://tenor.com/view/snatch-bookies-bets-all-bets-blag-gif-13007226

I don't believe it works with mods. Only vanilla SF.

[grim gate]

Would any of you fine people be able to help me out?

I have added a custom faction to Conflict game mode and have overridden the vehicle prop objects from the US and set them to the new faction.

I have also added the vehicles to the factions entities lists in the world editor under faction manager. When I plonk down a vehicle depot it shows blank boxes with no vehicles within.

[chrome rampart]

Did you create new entity catalogs?

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Faction_Creation

[chrome rampart]

Did you add the replication component?

Wouldn't hurt to throw in Hierarchy as well.

[fleet girder]

Hi guys, is tehre something like a wave respawn?

like in squad - rally point? Every 60sec whoever is waiting will be let in game

[indigo marlin]

Can I remove this dependency or do I need to start a new world?

No delete option ofc

[grim gate]

Yes I have new entity catalogues created and have added the required vehicle entities to the "faction".conf.

Oh wait, I never added the faction to EditablePrefabsConfig.conf

[chrome rampart]

SF FEEDBACK: Plugin Trigger on Layer does not work.
Problem: When using the plugin trigger to spawn an object when player enters the radius, the slot does not spawn.
If you use the slottrigger.et it works.

[uncut socket]

Hey. Been playing linear conflict on northcom vanilla server, how can i edit conflict scenario like that to be played in vanilla server without mods? If someone could give me a quick rundown

[chrome rampart]

@uncut socket
Does the scenario have dependencies? Or just the server?

Create your own linear conflict without mods. You can try to edit that scenario if the license allows it, but removing the dependencies if any will more than likely break the scenario.

[upper tree]

i didn't thanks for the hint, will try it and see if it fixes my Problem

[uncut socket]

Im pretty new to this Arma modding scene, i have some dayz experience on models/scripting etc. How can i get my hands into that scenario? I tried the workbench scenario editor for a bit, but could not find any tutorials on how to make a scenario playable on vanilla server

[chrome rampart]

Whats the scenario?

[glass niche]

this is how I got started with scenarios https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework_Setup_Tutorial?useskin=darkvector

but also look at the weapon modding tutorial, that's where I should have probably started 👀

[wild trellis]

If only scenario framework was around when I got started 👀

[glass niche]

you played workbench on veteran difficulty mode

[grim gate]

I feel like I'm missing something reallt simple but I cannot find VehicleAssetList.conf or create my own config file as SCR_CampaignVehicleAssetList doesn't seem to exist

[sullen ruin]

Someone here with knowledge to make a combat ops game mode?
I just need one mission or so.

I want combat ops to play with a friend. The Enemys and Objectives i want to spawn via Game Master...

[jolly spade]

nice kit 👍

[fleet girder]

😂 It was random shit slapped together

[jolly spade]

you have good taste in snipers

[crisp rain]

I still carry pain from trying to make a scenario during the initial launch window

[chrome rampart]

I think I owe the NightOps team very early on for their framework. Then SF came out shortly there after.

[crisp rain]

@tame stream https://i.imgur.com/CJ1Nelo.png this works :D

[tame stream]

I will give it a go once I'm home thank you

[tame stream]

Did you have to do anything to make the spawn location random

[crisp rain]

nope just having the multiple spawn points in the world and using the deathmatch_automatic cycled the spawns on death

[tame stream]

Your amazing thank you.

[indigo marlin]

Can I make the initial deployment time less than 10 seconds on capture and hold scenario?

[indigo marlin]

Anybody know why my ScenarioLoadingScreen.layout the photograph i changed it to works in the editor but when uploaded to the workshop it shows the default photograph on that screen.

I set it on the m_WLoadingImage part of the layout

I'm assuming it's set dynamically somewhere but idk

[indigo marlin]

My rifleman stopped spawning with a rifle...no idea what I would have done. Anybody point me anywhere to look?

[glass niche]

double check your base rifleman variations, there might be one in there with no rifle on accident.

[indigo marlin]

Ok thank you very much. Where do I check if they have no rifle?

What component on the variant prefab

[glass niche]

See what variations are there, and then open up each one to check if they have the proper weapon.

You can drag and drop them all into a world and quickly look through each one if there are many variations.

[indigo marlin]

Ok but where do I check for the weapon on them?

Neither of the 2 rifle variants have one showing on their mesh

[glass niche]

ok, look in their components for "CharacterWeaponSlotComponent"
here is the wiki reference: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Faction_Creation?useskin=darkvector#Changing_weapons

[indigo marlin]

Tyvm

[indigo marlin]

It's so weird it happend to a few of my US character prefabs but not the USSR ones

it happened to US sharpshooter and grenade launcher and others

Still haven't fixed it but digging around.

I think it must have happened from a git merge that I had some conflicts.

Gonna remove vanilla reforger folder from project and re-add it

[indigo marlin]

Damn I uninstalled reforget then removed it as dependency in workbench and then re-added it and still same.

[indigo marlin]

I got all the other crap fixed I was trying to get fixed today and then this happens at the end wtf.

Ok probably took me too long to narrow it down to this but it's the weapon prefab not showinga mesh

the character loadout is setup right

This is the issue. Not sure where to go from here.

It's the original files not the overrides.

[indigo marlin]

Tried revalidating steam files no luck.

[glass niche]

There must be something overriding the base prefab. I would look through the dependencies at anything with this puzzle piece icon

means it's an overridden asset of some kind. deleting the culprit should restore whatever was changed.

but if it's not your file to delete >.> not much you can do, conflicting addons.

override the override 😅

[indigo marlin]

Haha ok cool thanks for the help. Hopefully I can drill it down. Worst case scenario I can start a new project and copy my world into it.

[lean scroll]

Any help with this error when trying to spawn an item via playertrigger?

WORLD : UpdateEntities WORLD : PostFrame SCRIPT (E): Can't spawn object LayerFireworksSpawner - the slot has 0 activation type set instead of 1

[glass niche]

try using "on_trigger_activation" for the fireworks layer activation type, then it should wait for the trigger.

or if that's already the case then check the hierarchy cuz i've had stuff break before when it was in one layer vs another 😩

[lean scroll]

yeah if it isn't one thing, it's four others. I was trying to spawn one of two fx randomly under the layer, so I think it was tripping. Asking it to spawn one item works. Thanks.

[lean scroll]

Still getting that error but at least the trigger works. I set up a slotplayertrigger that spawns the layer which holds the two fx versions. Set the layer to spawn randomone at 100, et voila.

[indigo marlin]

It is officially working again. Thank you again for all your help. Glad I put this to rest before I went to bed.

Except I only have 1 magazine for m16 now lol always something, but deal with that another day.

[ionic edge]

dint worked i had now the time to test it

[worthy cape]

Is someone able to help me figure out why my points can’t be capped? I have a US and USSR team, points are fia base prefab with control point and notifications active and seizing active yet when either team is on the point they don’t start capping it.

[warped sage]

anyone know a good mod for better AIs ?

[chrome rampart]

CRX AI by tim

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5F268647F8A1A1F4-CRXEnfusionA.I.

[chrome rampart]

Why does the faction manager have that number as the name? Delete it and drop in the factionmanager USxUSSR one.

[ionic edge]

Thats not the problem read the oder messages

This is the problem that im missing the right click menue

[cold sleet]

hey there, is there a possibility to find workshop data on my pc? (like in A3 - missions and content i had played, subscribed or self uploaded) thx a lot!! :)

[frank island]

How to change allowed max FOV in a scenario?

[chrome rampart]

Yes its possible.

[finite roost]

trying to set up conflict pve with rhs the first time and got this error
rhs is added as dependecy and i added RHS_USAF & RHS_AFRF into the campaignfactionmanager plus faction label FACTION_RHS_USAF and AFRF
do i need to add folders like when i add rhs items and weapons to arsenal?

[cold sleet]

ah nice, thx for reply dude! jeah but where on my maschine (or in which folder-structures) i could find them? 1.) missions from others i played and 2.) subscribed or self uploaded workshops? thx yo

[indigo marlin]

Ok why can't I remove loadouts from a loadout manager? I duplicated the original and renamed it

Oh because loadout manager base I used. Cool

[frank island]

Anyone know how to fix locked FOVs in a scenario

[fleet girder]

hey guys, doy ou know why my price in config is being ignored?

both normal AK + AK74m

Everything else is set up the same way and cost is OK

hmm, I used base prefab of rifle and once I used some non base it works fine I guess

[indigo marlin]

Anybody have any tips on debugging this?

Can't usw the spawn (continue) button in bottom right.

[fleet girder]

I am just guessing, prob missing some managers like faction manager, gamemode manager or something

console will tell you better details imo

[indigo marlin]

Have all the managers but ive been changing them my way

I'll try getting rid of all overrides on managers later try to narrow it down.

[fleet girder]

I had this at some point and some manager like defaultplayer something was causing this

[indigo marlin]

Ok cool thanks.

[indigo marlin]

How do i create new faction label in this field?

I have faction config file, faction identity, and copied each faction folder and renamed them for new faction, but can't find where to update this list.

[chrome rampart]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Faction_Creation
Have you looked here?

[indigo marlin]

Yeah I'm going through it now think I got it

[indigo marlin]

SCRIPT (W): 'SCR_Faction' trying to get entity list of type 'ITEM' but there is no catalog with that type for faction 'USC420_Base'

That's the console message

[indigo marlin]

Yeah i've done everything from that faction setup guide. Can't find anything that applies that I haven't done.

[lean scroll]

World ent goes in that worlds folder, under your project. You have that correct.

[surreal parcel]

Anybody had any luck editing/moving the parts around for the FiringRangeBasePrefab.et ?

[indigo marlin]

This is the step I can't get to work.

"Adding new faction to Editable Entity Core" section of faction creation on wiki

[wild moth]

Jus look at how bi did it

[indigo marlin]

I am lolo

Theres like 50 things that cross reference each other. Going through them all slowly.

I've got it 99% i'm sure but missing something

[indigo marlin]

I do that like it says in the wiki steps, and then after I click that I don't know how they get the new faction in the list.

New rule can be added to EditablePrefabsComponent_EditableEntity.conf in few steps described below:

Use Override in addon function on EditablePrefabsComponent_EditableEntity.conf located in Configs/Workbench/EditablePrefabs folder
Add EditablePrefabsLabel_Faction entry to Entity Label Rules array
Select FACTION_REDFOR in Label drop down menu
Adjust Faction To Check parameter by typing name of faction: SampleFactionREDFOR (it should be same string as in Faction affiliation parameter in FactionAffiliationComponent of characters or units)
Once those steps are complete, it is important to save all changes through Ctrl+S shortcut. In some rare cases changes applied to that config might need full restart of the Workbench.

This is what the wiki says, but where it says "Select FACTION_REDFOR in Label drop down menu" there is no FACTION_REDFOR...im not sure if thats an error in the document and they meant to put SampleFaction whatever they named it...or if they are referring to USSR

Either way nothing happens when I do it to make the new faction appear in the list.

[wild moth]

What do you mean list?

[indigo marlin]

Dropdown selection list for factions

[wild moth]

Ohh, did you add your faction to the editor faction manager

[indigo marlin]

I registered the placeable entities if thats what you mean. I just rebuilt my game mode and using US faction for now, but I still have all the other work on the new faction so I can keep figuring it out.

[frank island]

People playing are my map are stuck at a certain Fov and can't change it, is there a way to adjust the limit in Workshop?

[cobalt star]

I don't know where to post this question so I'm posting here, does anyone know how to get the gramps linear progression to work on a custom conflict pve scenario? Secondary question how does one get the relay capture to work?

I can not get past this to start a server for my scenario it's driving me crazy. Anybody got any tips?

Server works when i copy paste a default one in there, but not when i copy paste my scenario id from the workshop

[fleet girder]

Hi guys, any idea why I can not load my world anymore?

I loaded some other mods with the scenario, then unloaded and was not able to load it anymore, white screen

for anyone wonderinga bout the fix..

this in .ent file was empty, somehow it was missing parent mod - map

No idea how

i am yet tocheck if everything else remains the same

[chrome rampart]

Ask @wild trellis maybe? He's a pretty good guy and helps folks.

[indigo marlin]

@chrome rampart Any chance you can point me in the right direction for getting my server to load my scenario? Server loads with default scenarios but when I copy / paste mine in from workshop it won't load.

Scenario works offline in game

Getting a decent handle on everything else but this one has got me bottlenecked.

[chrome rampart]

Couple points to start with...

• Using mods in your scenario?
  • If yes, have you tested your scenario in a dedicated server environment without mods?
  • If yes, have you tested all the mods in your scenario work in a dedicated server environment?

[fleet girder]

Hey guys, do you know how to disable bacon arsenal outside of HQ?

I have seen it on some servers

[chrome rampart]

Pro-tip from a non-professional, if you are building a scenario, first build that scenario with all vanilla components. After you fully test in a SP, Local host, and dedicated server environment that your vanilla scenario works, then build it with what ever mods you want. And use a modular approach to the mods. AddOns like weapons, uniforms and vehicle should be built in a separate standalone mod completely un-pluggable from your scenario. World/Terrain mods will have to be built with your scenario, so test it thoroughly before committing time and effort. Test the terrain mod in all aspects of the game, sp, local host, and dedi server.

Measure twice, cut once.

[fleet girder]

Do you happen to know an answer to this? 😭
#enfusion_scenario message

Spent debugging like 2 days

[chrome rampart]

Ask Bacon, it's his mod.

Yes it has the same issue without any mods. I will triple check in a moment.

[gritty vortex]

It is opened through an action in actions manager. You could disable it there but it will propagate throughout to arsenal boxes on placed armory.

Yeah vanilla works great if you just want to pick up an item. Less so if you want to change the color of your receiver or find mags for your gun in a big pile of items.

[fleet girder]

I have noticed

but I can not delete teh action

Its like set in, embeded

[gritty vortex]

Cant disable the action I guess?

Delete is not possible

Disable might

[fleet girder]

uno momento

[fleet girder]

where disable

https://tenor.com/view/where-you-at-gif-21177622

[gritty vortex]

Try making the context invalid

[indigo marlin]

Ok it gives the same error with no mods.

Copy paste a default scenario into config.json it starts right up

#enfusion_scenario message

[fleet girder]

I think I already tried to filddle around with it

I will check out later

[gritty vortex]

I mean I tested it before I posted this

[fleet girder]

and worked?

[gritty vortex]

Yep

[fleet girder]

hmm

okay

Interesting

[warped sage]

anyone got a good a night vision goggles NVGs mod they know or use for there Server that works and don't show them half way off your head lol

[chrome rampart]

@indigo marlin Let me test it.

[indigo marlin]

Thank you very much.

Still going through your videos btw great stuff.

[chrome rampart]

In your mission header, you must replace the images in icon, loading screen and preview image with anything other than default and placeholder.

@indigo marlin Remove "USC420 Persistent Game mode" in game mode and replace with default for now.

[indigo marlin]

In here you mean?

[chrome rampart]

@indigo marlin remove path from the mission header as well.

@indigo marlin fix those items and test. Let me know when you update the workshop.

[indigo marlin]

kk

[indigo marlin]

Published

Same issue for me so far

Oh wait

I didnt update the preview file there, only in the publishing window

[indigo marlin]

Somebody should put that in giant red letters or something lol or you could make a video just about headers

[chrome rampart]

no problem here

[indigo marlin]

That's on a dedicated server?

I can run scenario, just not dedicated server

[chrome rampart]

yep you bet

[indigo marlin]

Hmmmm

[chrome rampart]

So where does the problem lie?

Use the half split method of troubleshooting

[indigo marlin]

In my server folder / steamcmd ? I'll try removing and remaking that

[chrome rampart]

seems to be server side. Can't be 100%.

My production server runs with AMP Application manager.

[indigo marlin]

I'm updating the server on steamcmd. I just figured it did it when I updated it on steam.

[chrome rampart]

oh no you have to update.

[indigo marlin]

That must have been it. Thanks a million. I'll test in a few.\

I'll grab AMP also thanks for the info.

[gritty vortex]

On Windows you can use the tool from soda3x

Will be much easier

[indigo marlin]

Nice thanks!

[fleet girder]

have you simply made it empty or.. ?

[gritty vortex]

Yep empty

[fleet girder]

and save, thats all?

[gritty vortex]

Yep

Why is your UI Info missing

In the action

[fleet girder]

got it

interesting

I was trying to edit the prefab but it ignored because it was not overwritten in prefab itself

Spawning arsenal standalone and disabling it worked

so I will try to override default arsenal prefab

and that should be it

[indigo marlin]

Does anybody know how to change the default deployment time? I can change respawn time but not the very first deployment.

[oblique hawk]

So I've just created a basic scenario as per the docs at https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework_Setup_Tutorial, however when I press play in workbench I don't get the deployment menu, I just get shoved straight into a player unit - How can I see the role selection screen? Something I need to toggle?

Stupidly I had it working before but I've tried backtracking and no luck 🤦

[lean scroll]

try killing your character via gamemaster, then instead of "player character" it should say "respawn menu" if you have it all set up correctly

[chrome rampart]

You need to change from autospawn to menuspawn. Wait one and I'll grab a screen shot

@oblique hawk Right click on the Spawn Logic, and select change class. Then select the MenuSpawnLogic class.

[oblique hawk]

Legend thanks

I was already on your page as it happens 😆

[chrome rampart]

oh ok cool.

[oblique hawk]

The bit I haven't quite sussed yet is how one goes about creating a layout of groups where slots match up to roles (or prefabs in Reforger parlance). I'm not even sure if it's possible, google gives me conflicting answers

[chrome rampart]

REQUEST:
Change SCR_RespawnSystemComponent in GameModeSF to SCR_MenuSpawnLogic.

[indigo marlin]

what does SCR mean i forgot

And the blue vs pink prefabs anybody have some practical insight how they use them?

[coral flicker]

you might need to add certain dependencies to your mod ?

[steel mirage]

is there any documentation out there for adding voice lines in scenario framework?

[indigo marlin]

Can anybody explain this to me why there are never new factions in this dropdown list even if I create new ones in faction manager?

And / or what is the difference between a faction label and a faction

[wild trellis]

you have to add/mod it to ```c
enum EEditableEntityLabel

modded enum EEditableEntityLabel
{
  YOUR_FACTION = some number thats not used already,
}

[indigo marlin]

Ok thank you. Is it necessary or what is the use for faction labels?

[ebon lynx]

It's necessary if you want your character/group/vehicle/composition to appear in the Game Master asset browser - if they don't have a matching label in SCR_EditableEntityComponent (or equivalent for whatever asset type you're adding) they won't show up, as per https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Asset_Browser_Mod_Integration

[indigo marlin]

Do these prefixes have any function like calling a variable or is it just tag?

[chrome rampart]

[dense rain]

I'm fairly new at this with about 10 hours of working in the Enfusion Engine and I have a question -

I'm making a PvE Conflict Scenario and wanted to know how I can make AI spawn only when a player enters an AREA. Otherwise, if I have AI spawners placed down on the map, it spawns them all in at the same time.

Essentially, I want it to be when a player enters an AREA, then the AI spawns in (these AI are using the AmbientPatrolSpawnpoint_USSR.et). That way when players are not in a particular zone, the AI wont spawn in and bog the server down. What I am getting right now the AI always spawns in, at every point, regardless if the PLAYER is in the AREA.

For some reason, there is no way to turn on Dynamic Despawn in the GameMode_Campaign. There is no SCR_GameModeSF that has the option to enable the Dynamic Despawn. You can enable Dynamic Despawn in the AREA instance, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Any insight into this would be greatly appreciated. This is the biggest hurdle I've ran into so far 😅

[chrome rampart]

First, what game mode are you using?

[dense rain]

Conflict

[chrome rampart]

I see you on my server. I'll pick over there.

[dense rain]

Thank you 🙂

[wild trellis]

"Ambient patrol system" is what you want to look at.

[chrome rampart]

@charred wasp Hi Reaper, have a question for you if you don't mind.

[charred wasp]

SUre

[chrome rampart]

TY. On your cinematic intro for Just In Time, do you have to transistion from the last camera position to start of the scenario? I don't see anything about this.

Or is it automatic?

[charred wasp]

No, if cinematic ends, the camera will be reset to the player

[chrome rampart]

Very good, thank you.

[dense rain]

Is there a way to make it so AI don’t spawn unless you are within a certain distance in Conflict Game Mode? I know the Area.et only works is SF. That’s really the biggest issue I’ve ran into. I know now how to make AI appear in SF thanks to Creator, but then the whole Conflict scenario is is my new stuck point 😅

[wild trellis]

yes under SCR_AmbientPatrolSystem:ProcessSpawnpoint() ```c
// Define if any player is close enough to spawn or if all players are far enough to despawn

also, if youre doing pve conflict, youre welcome to use my scenario as s dependency if you like, maybe the work ive already done suits your needs? ConflictPVERemixedVanilla2.0. There is also my Linear mod that only allows ai to spawn near a point if it is the currently assigned objective(s). EDIT: BTW exp branch has most up to date versions/features

[indigo marlin]

What is "Player Entity Name" on scr_PlayerController supposed to be?

[chrome rampart]

https://community.bistudio.com/wikidata/external-data/arma-reforger/ArmaReforgerScriptAPIPublic/interfaceSCR__PlayerController.html

[indigo marlin]

Yeah but I can't see anywhere in there that tells where the player identity name lines up with anything else. Nothing about what should be entered in that field unless i'm missing it.

[dense rain]

I have looked into yours and man is it impressive, and also I ain’t got a clue yet of how to utilize these things 😅. But I’m learning and understanding more each day!

The biggest thing I want to accomplish is setting up a template that I can (and others) easily use to add more maps to a consistent roster of PvE Conflict. A lot of the times I find scenarios tied to a particular group, you Gramps and Mike_00000 scenarios have been my inspiration to expand. The community I run rely heavily on your mod and Mikes selection of maps, and I want to learn and help expand that list even further 😁

[wild trellis]

yeah I would like to re-write the whole thing with it being more of a framework eventually. I had no idea it would be so popular when I started as I originally designed it just for my servers/community before others started using it as a base for their own creations.

[dense rain]

Well, what you started is something you should be proud of and what it has accomplished!

My motivation is to always make things better while respecting where things started. I’d like to make an Efficient, high quality PvE Conflict template that can easily be expanded and utilized by my community and others 🙂

[wild trellis]

yeah Id imagine you'd probably have more time to work on it than I would hahah

[dense rain]

My community drives me to excel, and if I can help and grow the PvE sector a little bit more, I’m all for it 😁

But personally, thank you Gramps for what you made, I know the guys continually have a blast when overran by AI 🥳

[severe hollow]

is it possible to edit object properties of an object spawned inside a slot ?

[indigo marlin]

"Game resources don't match server resources
Kick cause code: group=4 'DATA', reason=1, 'RDB_MISMATCH

and the server says this

"replication validation error remote rdb checksum does not match""

It also says battleye disconnected.

Dealing with this one now.

When trying to connect to the server. The server starts fine though

[severe hollow]

@chrome rampart hey man! Could you possibly point me in the right direction as to how to create big visible colored areas that players can see on their maps?

[lean scroll]

I think it's a tag for base game stuff. You can definitely take them out and write on your own text without issue.

[oblique hawk]

What are my options for limiting what roles are available to players on a per group basis? Thinking about traditional ArmA lobby style where each role corresponds to a particular loadout. I know how to create loadouts, and I know how to create groups, but currently the issue is that I'd have an unlimited number of each role/player combination. Players could opt to have two groups full of nothing but grenadiers which isn't what I want.

For example, if I have two squads - Alpha and Bravo - I want each of them to only be allowed 1 medic and 1 grenadier

Hoping to understand my options here. If it helps, I'm currently using the scenario framework.

[chrome rampart]

I wish I knew. I haven't investigated it but it would be nice to have area markers without having to script them. Not sure why they left them out to this point.

[indigo marlin]

How do I deal with a read only preload manager in the scene under the read only eden map? Am I not supposed to use that map?

I need to remove it because I have my own preload manager prefab

[indigo marlin]

Yeah i thought i had it figured out but I guess not.

Ok now trying to figure out how to remove Eden from my world

Ok I just started a new world and copied my layers folder over

[glass niche]

there is a "reforger lobby" mod on the workshop. I haven't used it though, I heard it's not compatible with the vanilla framework.

[chrome rampart]

I played around with using spawn points labeled by role, then delete the spawn point when used. I made a base load out then added weapons when the player spawned with the spawn point plugin. I think you could do some restore layer with limited count to restore each spawn point.

[severe hollow]

Sorry can anyone help me? I'm trying to spawn either GM Enhanced FlyBy helo or GMFX artillery barrage (i'm on xbox so i don't have access to the new artillery in stable) by trigger activation when player enters the area? now for GMFX I realize i need an activation script since it doesn't activate by itself on spawn, but the FlyBy does, yet I can't manage to make it work on player trigger

Or RHS flyby for that matter, I just want dynamically spawned things. I've followed Blackheart_six tutorials but can't seem to make it work for that specific thing.

just for context this is what i tried:

Slot3 i set the ambientflyby as object to spawn but that doesn't work

@chrome rampart can you help? shit i just realized you're blackheart_six for your profile pic lol

Love your content mate ❤️

[chrome rampart]

I haven't messed with the flyby, so what does it do?

I'm trying to make an intro with cinematic camera. is it like that/

[severe hollow]

it spawns a flying helo "piloted" by AI. it's similar to what RHS does with the jet that spawns and just flies across the sky and despawns. But those are just examples.

[chrome rampart]

ah ok, like Reapers "Just in time" scenario.

[severe hollow]

Yes! helps to make the world feel alive around you. the flyby heli is great because the AI inside of it it's actually functional. they will shoot at targets from the helo as it flies across

[chrome rampart]

I would first test your process with any other object like a vehicle. Make sure that spawns first.

[severe hollow]

Yes I can make other things spawn like vehicles or characters. It's just these prefabs like ambient flyby or artillery barrage (from bacon) that I can't make it work

[chrome rampart]

Coming in 1.3 is the effect module that does barrages and minefields. I know that does help you now, but its coming.

There could be some limitations to the flyby module that RHS implemented.

Hard to say when dealing with 3rd party stuff.

[severe hollow]

Thank you. side question though. Is it possible to override a prefab, and edit it to add a script to it? because I can't make it work for some reason. When I hit "edit prefab" it takes me to a different world, and when I hit the "plus" sign on the script section I can't select any of the options. In my own world it usually takes me to the script editor but not when I'm trying to edit a prefab. just thought I'd ask. Thank you for your help. And thank you for your videos they've been very helpful!

[chrome rampart]

I would have to look at that. I've never done any scripting yet. Waiting until A4 is released and stable. I'll let you know. Give me a few minutes.

[severe hollow]

sounds like a good idea I hate that every update they change fundamental stuff here lol. And thanks. I don't want to take much of your time so you don't have to do it. I appreciate that you replied. Thanks!

[chrome rampart]

np

[chrome rampart]

Give me a prefab you are trying to add script to

[severe hollow]

bacon's artillery barrage

[chrome rampart]

lol. Ok I don't have that mod. Did you ask bacon about it? Or maybe in #enfusion_scripting ?

Let me try something else from the game.

[severe hollow]

No worries. I'll go ask bacon see what he says lol.

[chrome rampart]

When you edit prefab, there isn't a + to the right of script?

[severe hollow]

yes there is. Actualyyyy now i'ts letting me do it. I wasn't letting me before

[chrome rampart]

See I am that GOOD!

LOL

[severe hollow]

🤣

[chrome rampart]

Glad it's working.

[severe hollow]

Thanks for the time! I'll guess i'll just wait for 1.3 to do my mortar stuff lol

[chrome rampart]

Yea I would. You can lose the barrage mod then. It's works great

[severe hollow]

So, I know how to make it so finishing one mission makes the next one spawn, but how do i go about making it so players have to finish 3 missions in order to spawn another one? as in, the three missions are visible on the map since the beginning, but the fourth one only becomes available after the first three are done?

I thought about grouping the three tasks under the same "LayerTask" but then how could I have the three missions being different? since i need a specific "LayerTaskSomething" for each mission

and I can't put an "OnTaskFinish" trigger in the area. lol

I thought about opening up a combat ops map to see how they handle it but it's very confusing. Also, official maps are very poorly organized

[indigo marlin]

What's the difference on ball vs base on ammo prefabs?

[severe hollow]

Nevermind I've figured it out. It's extremely complicated lol but I got it to work

[glass niche]

check it out

any task will tick the counter. when the counter hits 3 or whatever it can spawn task 4

LogicCounter.et

better example pic

[severe hollow]

Thanks man!

[severe hollow]

why is this area so damn big. I can't find how to make it smaller. it shouldn't be that big to begin with. lol

[lean scroll]

thats the dynamic despawn area. there is adjustment in that part of the area components

[rotund spire]

Hey, this is probably a stuipid question but here it goes anyway :P How can I create PvP tasks, ie. redfor gets a kill officer task and blufor gets defend task

[chrome rampart]

Did you use a logic counter?

[indigo marlin]

Does anybody know where the black screen with FPS and steam version in top right corner comes from? Trying to debug

Comes when I go to play mode.

[severe hollow]

Yes. Managed to make it work using the logic counter!

[chrome rampart]

Pro-tip from a non-professional...
All graphical information displayed on the screen is handled by a .layout file
Search for the relative .layout file in the resource browser, and any possible .conf.

[severe hollow]

Thanks for that!

Quesion. I've managed to make "play sound on activation" work, but i assume this sound plays for the entire lobby right? is there a way to make a sound play just for people inside the area that activated it?

[fleet girder]

Hi guys, do you know a way of wave respawns on radio/point instead of everyone spawning however they want?

[lapis marsh]

Hello everyone, I hopyfully have a very basic question for you and hope I getting some help. I simply want to create a mission on a custom map i downloaded but i just get all the reforger default stuff in my editor. What am I missing? 😄 Thanks for any help

[lapis marsh]

Sure I got it by myself after 2 days of wondering and finally begging for help here. 🤦‍♂️
For everyone having the same problem to cant think simple:

• instead of Create New Project select **Add Existing Project **
• go to your mods/addon folder and find your addon of choice
• select the addon.gproj
• open it and it will be on your Ressource Browser (default on your left side)

[severe hollow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaNXRI_r7uE&t=441s You can also see this vid for reference

[severe hollow]

What's the name of this thing in the world editor? I can't find it with that name

[indigo marlin]

Yes and then make a new world that is a sub-scene of it

[chrome rampart]

Pro-tip from a non-professional...
Drop a composition into the world that contains that the item you want to find, and look at the sub-components.

[indigo marlin]

All right so something that I probably should have just done in the first place but might be good for other people to know. Do not drag in content from Windows Explorer or wherever. That is what messes up all the GUI IDs

Use the import button in the workbench or World editor to import files. And create the folders manually and put the files in them manually since you can't import the whole folder as far as I know

[chrome rampart]

This depends on what the content you are dragging. I can drag and drop jpegs into the images folder from windows explorer.
You can also close enfusion workbench and go to windows explorer and copy and paste world layers between projects. I do this all the time. You can also copy and paste overrides from one project to another. As long as you have the software closed and not opened.

[indigo marlin]

Ok good point and good to know. Yeah I have done world layers also with no issues.

But in my case I got this issue which I still have, and have no idea how to get rid of it. Trying lots of things.

RESOURCES (E): Wrong GUID/name for resource @"{6C757BA608C89D35}Configs/Editor/PlaceableEntities/Characters/Characters_USC420.conf" in property "m_sConfig"

It somehow saved MY prefab over a read only prefab inside the reforger addon package

I'm assuming it was something to do with git repo and dragging and dropping folders

ENGINE : GameProject load
INIT : GameProject load project data @"D:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Arma Reforger/addons/data/ArmaReforger.gproj"
RESOURCES (E): Wrong GUID/name for resource @"{C014582791ECBF24}Language/localization.st" in property "StringTableSource"
DEFAULT : Loading WB plugins

Also this

And it happens when I open the arma reforger project by itself. I've unisntalled and reinstalled a couple times. Once I restarted PC between uninstall and reinstall

I'm now uninstalling reforger, server, and tools, and searching for any leftover files and deleting, and then restarting PC

[severe hollow]

PSA. If you are having problems with a broken project because you removed a dependency and you CAN'T make it work even if you add it again, try this out!

Go to your worbench addons folder and find your project. open it and open the Addon.gproj file in a text editor. Make sure there are no extra quotation marks after the last mod ID. If there are, just remove them and try to launch the project in the workbench. It should be all fine now!

[indigo marlin]

Sweet I have to leave but I will try it when I get home thanks!!

I just reinstalle everything and it still did it!@

I'm going to start putting that and things like it into a document And put it online Somewhere

[severe hollow]

how do i add more than one waypoint to a SlotAI? currently all they have is the WP to Spawn. how do I go about making them do a follow up order other than then WP to spawn?

[indigo marlin]

I think that's the logic spawner thing whatever it's called. I've got to dive into that myself

[severe hollow]

thanks I'll mess around with that.
Basically I want the AI to spawn, "Get In Nearest" and then "Forced Move" to a location (by driving) but can't make it work. I tried using a "SlotWaypoint" as a chilid to the SlotAI but they don't follow the order so I guess I need to link it to the SlotAI somehow but don't know how

[indigo marlin]

Yeah that's exactly what I was trying to do the other day but I got sidetracked on other things that I need to fix first. I think I almost have those fixed we'll get back to it

[severe hollow]

Thanks. It's driving me crazy lol

[lean scroll]

Older video but maybe helpful.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHuc2l7KCDM

[lapis marsh]

@severe hollow you are my man, thank you so much this will help a lot!

[severe hollow]

https://youtu.be/EXClImlNB28 i made this video explaining my issue if anyone can help

sorry for the pronunciation english is not my first language. lol

[glass niche]

I think I see the problem. Follow this example at Step 7 of the random destroy task section. You'll need to adapt a similar setup for your ambush. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scenario_Framework_Setup_Tutorial?useskin=darkvector

The key difference is that you'll use a player trigger to spawn the ambush, not the dynamic despawn.

Sorry it's not the best example for your case, but hopefully it can help with spawning the AI.

[severe hollow]

Thank you so much I'll take a look. Appreciate it!
By the way I found a workaround... I just couldn't make the AI drive when I set it up as a taskdestroy, but they can drive when it's just a slot spawned vehicle. Sooo... I just put a pluging on destroy event so when players destroy the vehicle/convoy a can make a voice line appear that says "mission completed". So a mission, but not a mission. lol I'll take a look at the link!

[glass niche]

Sure thing. The tutorial spawns a random truck to destroy but in your case you'll spawn the ambushing AI instead. Like I said it's not the best so if you get stuck let me know XD

Probably dynamic despawn could work but I don't think it's the intended use.

[glass niche]

Here I think you just need to use the layer name and not the slots. should fix the waypoint issues

since it's asking for Layer that contains the slots

oh waypoints can be blank, i think, since it's all in the same layer

[severe hollow]

yeah i actually did it that way first because that's how it's on the wiki i think. but didn't work. then I saw a Blackheart_Six video on AI_Economy and i think he recommended to use the actual names of the waypoints instead of the layer. buuut that didn't work either. However when I just got rid of the destroy task and use a normal vehicle instead it totally worked.

So i guess the problem comes when using the waypoints with the taskdestroy layer in the middle of the mix

the waypoint ForcedMove at least

[glass niche]

ohhh got it. yep I've noticed some tasks are really... delicate 😩

lots of times i use the basic "layertask > slottask" and use a trigger to change the task state which has been more reliable.

[severe hollow]

That's a good idea. actually I might try it that way to see if anything changes

[severe hollow]

hey @glass niche do you know if there are any feasible or practical ways to set up hostage rescue missions?

[glass niche]

Reaper core has a hostage task module and a ton of other stuff. definitely check it out.

[severe hollow]

Will do. thanks!

[humble onyx]

hi, i followed the existing tutorials but i can't get the patrols to work. i tried everything: follow the Blackheart tutorial to the letter, retrieve the framework files. the ai don't move!! Can you help me or make a simple tutorial just with a patrol on 2 or 3 points. thanks

Thanks man! this definitely works with most AI so thank you, it clears things up. but when I try to do it with my situation it still doesn't work. maybe Vehicles that are attached to a task destroy can't be driven by AI? or maybe I'm not doing the hierarchy right lol

There is a different setup for "mounted" AI for vehicle patrols.

Gotcha. I mean I'm not trying the create a patrol cycle, just want them to move from point A to point B which actually works with your method. It just doesn't work when the target vehicle was spawned via TaskDestroy Spawn Objects 🤔

The only waypoint they take is the "get in nearest" but they don't drive

This should cover dismounted and mounted.

Side question: What's the difference between PlaySound and PlaySound FromEntity?
