I did not realize lootPosSmall positions can only fit small objects like
soda cans etc., so it is not okay to merge them with the main lootPos
arrays. This separates them back out.
This solution will work like 1.0.5.1 CfgLootSmall. <GroupName>Small is
used to spawn additional loot if the building type has lootPosSmall
positions available. It is not necessary to add a <GroupName>Small for
types that do not have lootPosSmall positions.
Some of these objects may still be too big or too small (knife,
binoculars, matchbox, etc.) for the positions and look out of place. If
that is the case please submit a pull with any problematic ones removed
from the <GroupName>Small groups (check if they aren't in 1051
CfgLootSmall first). Balance and rates may need adjustment as I just
took the normal groups and removed large objects from them while trying
to keep similar items to 1.0.5.1 CfgLootSmall.
Epoch has custom loot positions for many buildings. Most lootPos have
not changed in vanilla since pre 1.7.x.
The vanilla lootPos are now commented out and custom Epoch ones are
added back. LootPosSmall positions are now included in lootPos and
marked with //DZE EXTRA
LootPosSmall are included and used by default in 1051, so it is simpler
to add them to the main lootPos lists instead of having a separate loop
in buildingSpawnLoot.sqf for them.
Passing false as the second parameter to fnc_find_plots always returns
DZE_PlotPole select 0. In dze_buildchecks we want to use DZE_PlotPole
select 1 if the classname is a plot pole.
_distance is already defined as DZE_PlotPole select 0 in the other three
files, so it is redundant to redefine it as the return value.
In player_upgrade.sqf the check for DZE_permanentPlot is not necessary,
because FNC_check_access handles both cases.
It is unnecessary to specify default values in configVariables.sqf
comments. All values in this file will be defaults at release. It can't
be edited by admins directly. They need to copy the variables to their
mission to change them, so they will always be able to reference it for
the defaults.
Fn_check_access provides the same functionality and more.
Removed folders that only contained a single file to clean things up.
Also added epoch tag friendly code to vanilla player_updateGui for now.
Plot for Life and Plot Management work best together. They essentially
provide the same functionality. Both let you keep your plot after death
by using UID instead of CharacterID. Plot Management doesn't even have
an option to save characterID, so by default it is always keeping all
friends and the owner permanently until they are removed. The only major
difference between them is Plot For Life also adds permanent ownership
of built items on the plot, which is behavior most people expect. It
doesn't make sense to keep ownership of the plot after death but not the
other objects built on it. The other functionality it adds (take
ownership) can be toggled with a config variable.
It is rare that someone would want Plot For Life enabled, but Plot
Management disabled or vice versa. If they really want that they can
still do it manually, but consolidating them to a single config option
greatly simplifies things for everyone else.
I removed links to mod githubs because many changes have been made to
the 1.0.6 versions, so outdated information there will likely confuse
people. Authors are already credited in the README and change log.
In variables.sqf "DZ_storage_base" is now the parent class which
includes all tents and stashes. DZE_checkNearbyRadius variable is not
used (identical to DZE_PlotPole select 0).
The big list of removals in setvariableval.txt and publicvariableval.txt
were duplicates. Other removals are covered by the new regex filter.
Still needs work. If you encounter kicks please post the restriction
type and number along with the log line in the 1.0.6 testing issue.
Vanilla development commit:
https://github.com/DayZMod/DayZ/commit/b038a1762bc90828c3598af3d06b3e51677b01a1
Fixes RPT error "Unsupported language English (or whatever language you
selected) in stringtable" on load.
We do not have <Original> tags on any other strings in the table, so
there is no reason to use them here. They are not needed. If the game is
set to use a language that does not have an entry it uses the first
available entry for that string (which is English for every string in
the table). Keys should not contain only <Original> tags with no other
languages, as it will cause this error.
Updates that were in the 1.0.5.1 release are now included in the main
epoch.sql file, since all servers should have applied them by now.
All new updates since 1.0.5.1 release are now in 1.0.6_Updates.sql.
Also disable abort and respawn immediately in pause menu onLoad. New
function fn_pauseMenuChecks allows admins to run unscheduled code in
pause menu onLoad.
Since typed bags spawn in bulk (usually 2x 4 different bag types) this
reduces bloodbag output slightly when classic system is enabled.
Medboxes were spawning with 3-8 blood bags, this reduces it to about 1-6
which should be similar to 1051 values IIRC. Feel free to adjust this up
or down if needed.
The whole point of a global variable is you do not need to pass it.
DZE_plotManagement and DZE_plotmanagementAdmins are always defined and
do not change, so there is no need to pass them as parameters.
@icomrade - configFile and missionConfigFile are in different scopes.
Admins can overwrite any dialog in RscDisplay with their own version
included in the mission without getting "class already defined" errors.
I tested to make sure it is possible. So there is no benefit to having
these includes in description.ext.
CursorTarget should always be passed from fn_selfActions, not reacquired
in action scripts. This is to ensure the same object is referenced. Plot
Management maintain_area is called from the dialog button, not
fn_selfactions.
@icomrade - when you use set to add an element to an array you do not
need to wrap it in brackets [ ] like you do with +.
This was making it a nested array which was not intended in the
original.
This was needlessly recompiling every time the addAction was clicked.
DisableSerialization is only needed if a display element is stored in a
variable within the current script. The called functions already have
it.
I forgot numbers greater than 1 million are truncated when converted to
string:
http://killzonekid.com/arma-scripting-tutorials-float-to-string-position-to-string/
KeyStartNumber exceeded 6 digits which is why it was being truncated to
"1e+011" and getting stuck on loop (as that string was already in
currentObjectUIDs) as mentioned in 2df7279.
Starting at 10, there should never be more than a couple duplicates
generated, so keyStartNumber will never exceed about 100 max. Added an
exit just for a fail safe.
Outhouse no longer includes toilet paper.
Plot pole may cover an arbitrary radius and ownership may not be lost
after death depending on server settings.
Some items (like PipeBomb) are a class in both CfgMagazines and
CfgWeapons. BIS_fnc_invRemove uses weapon first, so that is why the
magazine was not being removed. Using config instead of string avoids
this problem.
The secondaryWeapon command does not detect pistols. It returns the
unit's launcher.
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/secondaryWeapon
This fixes the menu always showing your pistol slot as open, even when
you already have one.
It was not possible to sell a backpack from your gear or vehicle.
Added option to sell from gear. Sell backpack from vehicle is still not
possible currently due to Arma limitations.
Only show Selected vehicleX systemChat message when clicking the buy
in/sell from vehicle button. Previously it was showing every time the
menu opened.
Also added better logging to RPT. Shows "Trader Menu: %1 x %2 added" and
"Trader Menu: %1 added"
Fixes currency display name and picture not showing when looking at
backpack item info.
Also fixed localized string for weps and mags order reversed in item
info for backpacks and vehicles.
Since we are keeping "everything takes up one gear slot" weight should
be enabled by default. Moved to init.sqf so admins can easily change it.
Also added RedRyder and Anzio_20 weight.
@Adaptivity
- STR_EPOCH_WALLWITHDOORLOCKED_DESC string was missing
- I see no reason STR_EPOCH_PLOTDEED_ACTION was renamed to a less
descriptive name, and it was missing the German translation from the old
one, so I changed it back
- These build actions in fn_selfActions are for vanilla building. They
shouldn't be in the Epoch package. I renamed them and submitted them to
vanilla too.
