Air raid - bombing and siren

I call it through init.sqf so maybe why sound not being called??

I mentioned that might be a possibility to someone else stig, do you think you could give the mission.sqm way a try? As I said, I'm still learning, and locality can be confusing - so maybe calling via init.sqf is no good?

stig, I'm also just now going to update the random bombing script (no chopper, no ai) so it gives proper information about where the sirens are being created, the bomb sounds and the bombs. Give me like 20 mins or so and I'll post it here, and update the OP with it, just smoothing out a bug where something isn't showing its location.

One last thing, I said no requirements, but I'm not 100% as i've never installed it alone on vanilla. It may need something else I've changed somewhere, I've just set up a couple more local server instances to test on, so I will report back if I find anything.

Here we go. Just tested. Now in your rpt log it will show everything - where the siren actually is, where the bombs are being dropped (Each one), the target that is selected, etc.

ABOVE - this code should give you sirens playing

BELOW - old code, I don't think sirens will play properly

This script is working, confirmed by me. Will continue testing the sounds for the next little while if I can, just to confirm again the sirens and bomb whistling drop sounds are playing for me.

There should be no confusion as to where is being bombed, basically it will tell you the location of every bomb that is dropped.

ok cool - just about to test

Cheers!

Quick question

The timings i.e _repeat = 30 & _break = 120 is seconds/minutes??

mmmyum · Apr 25, 2013

_break is seconds.
_repeat is the number of times to cycle completely - so the number of bombardments
(ie it selects Electro, bombs it, that is one bombardment)

Bruce · Apr 25, 2013

Save this as mmmyum_bomb.sqf in the root of your pbo (dayz_chernarus1.pbo/mmmyum_bomb.sqf) Sry i know this is going to sound Dumb, but is that pbo the same as the mission. pbo from the Dayz st Control panel if not where might i find the Dayz_chenarus1.pbo. I added it to the one from the Control panel and checked logs but does not seem to be activating thank you for help in advance

Hi Bruce, its just your mission.pbo, that's just what mine is called. So yes, should be that one.
But did you call it anywhere? From init.sqf or from your mission.sqm?

mmmyum · Apr 25, 2013

OK SO BUGS

Seems there are a few bugs. Doing research.

Bombs are dropping in their correct locations, it seems, but -sirens/bomb whistling is tempermental -maye have to do with locality.
EDIT

So two bugs -

Sirens are tempermental - the usually play for me, but not always now. Not sure what's going on.

May be some problems with locality - as in the script is getting executed by each player on their login, not sure why this would happen but I'm learning and looking into this. Seems like it may choose a location near the player for first run?

This stuff has got to be problems with locality/how I'm calling the script, since I don't even refer to player postion anywhere I don't see why this would happen. Any ideas?

OK: More tested

I've got random bombs working well here, shit gets bombed at random. Haven't tested much more of the sirens, so if someone could confirm that they suck in the new code that would be great.

Currently, I'm looking into adding it to your dayz_server.pbo and calling it in the same way the helicrashes are called - just testing this now but it looks promising. I figure if it's not in the mission pbo nobody gets to call the script a second time - it'll execute just like the heli crashes. Which brings me to my next point
Got animated heli bombers working! AS IN THEY WILL FLY TO THE BOMB SITE AND NOT BE DELETED (thanks SARGE!)
Still testing these bad boys, before I release the updated animated AI air raid code. If they work properly, and the call from dayz_code.pbo works properly, we may be onto our next version!

Still gotta stamp out these bugs about the sirens, keep me posted on if they're working for you or not.

Bruce · Apr 25, 2013

Yes I called it from my init.sqf thought i entered it exactly but have not seen it activateing in the logs

You're sure you followed the directions right? That's odd.
Maybe it's not the right mission.pbo, should be under mpmissions. Are you editing the singleplayer one?

Script Restriction CreateVehicle #11
I have it set to 1 but ppl are still getting kicked. any ideas?

Are there any alternatives to BE for a dayz.st server?

mmmyum · Apr 25, 2013

Dlcoates1 said:
It's kinda obvious really. It's the fact that you are creating vehicles with the script. You need to go through your scripts.txt and on the create vehicle lines, add !"mmmyum_bomb.sqf" to create an exception for the script.

@AxeCain
This is as far as I know. Not sure about BE since I don't use it (passworded). Changing the 5 to a 1 didn't work? From what I understand, that completely disables that rule - are you sure you got the right one?
Good luck, sorry I don't know more about BE

Well shoot man, I don't know

Tried adding !"mmmyum_bomb.sqf" in the createVehicle rule? (by !"fixes/change_streethlights.sqf" for example)
If they're all disabled, then how could you possibly be being kicked? Stupid BE?

I've got a working animated AI heli air raid script! It is creating a heli, who flies over a city, bombs it, goes down and spawns AIs, then flies away. I'm not sure if it's playing sirens, as I have not seen it in game enough yet. Will report back!

CALL FROM DAYZ_SERVER.PBO is WORKING!

Now, this may fix our issues with sirens. Try adding it yourself if you feel adventurous, with the current script it should work fine too!

1)>>Add to compile folder the script you want to use - I named my new one server_airRaid.sqf

2)>>Open server_monitor.sqf and add this line to it below the crash site code
// mmmmyum airraid
nul = [] spawn server_airRaid; ///change to name of your script

3)>>Open server_functions.sqf and add this below spawn_carePackages...
///////////////////////////mmmyum custom
server_airRaid = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "z\addons\dayz_server\compile\server_airRaid.sqf";

Report back here to let us know if this is fixing your siren issues.

Working Animated Heli AirRaid with AI spawn - 0.41 http://pastebin.com/yD4zj297
Bugs: siren sounds, experimenting with new siren sound play commands, use at your own risk!
NEED TESTERS! install it and report back - call via dayz_server.pbo

So there looks like a problem with the say command maybe, I have not been able to test with more than one player to confirm, but it may cause multiple sounds to play for each player connected, or only leave one for the first player who connects.

I've been looking at two other ways to call it

Code:

_playNum = 50
while (_playNum > 0) do {
    if (isPlayer _x AND (_x distance _siren) < 1500) then {
_nul = [nil, _siren, rSAY, ["nam", 1500]] call RE; // This is a RPC sound call for the sound
} foreach playableUnits;
sleep 10;
10 fadeSound 1; // Fades sound in over time
};

this uses the rSAY to play the sound, with call RE to execute on remote clients. Not throwing any errors, but I have yet to be in position to test it.

also using this

Code:

_sirenSound = createSoundSource ["HeliHEmpty", position _target, [], 5];

But I'm not quite sure how it works, or if it will work for my purpose. Don't know where to tell it what sound to play.

1:16:05 Warning Message: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/HeliHEmpty.sound'.
1:16:05 Warning Message: '/' is not a value
1:16:05 Warning Message: SFX not found

Getting these from the createSoundSource - so it's clearly not working. Trying to find the sound in HeliHEmpty.sound. Can I call "puk" or another of my custom sounds from CfgSounds?

Anyone an arma sound expert?

I'm a sound designer, anyone got good suggestions for more sound effects? Going to enable the radio eventually, make some AI radio calls about the bombings.

mmmyum · Apr 26, 2013

Updated Random Code using different calls for sounds - try this, calling it any way you like! Report back!
No Animated Heli bombing, just regular good old random bombings! No AI, no requirements, install as in first post, or in day_server.pbo.

Please give this a try guys, it may fix the way sounds are called, making them consistent for everyone.

You should hear sirens if you are within 1500 m of the location to be bombed. Whistling from droppings bombs I will put in if this works, and release a new version to the OP.

UPDATE 26 APRIL 2013 !! 1230pmEST
__________________________________________________________________
ANIMATED AI HELI BOMBER AIRRAID 0.42a
||| WORKING! ||| WORKING SIRENS!
__________________________________________________________________

Hey guys, I know I've been plastering you with updates, but this is the one.
The big one

DOWNLOAD SCRIPT
>>>>> http://pastebin.com/8qdsxRJh <<<<<

Copy this pastebin code, and add it as I described. (Tested calling through dayz_server.pbo - put in compiles, add to server_monitor.sqf & server_functions)

EDIT: working on next version. Random worldspaces reinstated, rmodyn working (picks between types of choppers), fixed hover over aispawn for a few seconds, better siren sound progression. next up - cycle between waypoints to move across city as bombing, make it killable, make it spawn heli crash if shot down........It's almost ready now....

Dependent on add_unit_server.sqf (ai code) and must have animated heli crashes installed (needs the Sarge variable to be added to avoid chopper AI bomber being killed by "killed a hacker")

Video

0:10 for chopper fly in 5:30 for bombs start

So what does it do?

-creates heli and pilot & sends them to selected city
-when within approx 2000m sirens begin to play at city
-chopper arrives, hangs out a bit, them bombs begin
-whistling noise as bombs fall
-when bombardment complete, lowers chopper, spawns AI group in landingzone (optional), flies away.

For your testing convenience - this script will only bomb electro, near the hospital.

Now a couple things -
>>>The 'say' command was sucking dicks on MP. We've moved on to rSAY call RE, which should execute on each client remotely.
>>>I've added two called, one with foreach playableUnit and one without - this is to test if all connected clients can hear it, or if we need the foreach. > Half the sirens will sound with foreach, half will not. > If anyone can't hear the mortar whistling noises, it could be because they have no foreach.
>>>I have not been able to test it in a MP environment yet - only myself logged on the server so far. It should work just fine, especially if you have called it from the dayz_server.pbo.
>>>Please let me know if it works from the init or mission.sqm if you have it installed that way, I have not got to testing those methods yet.
>>>Random script just needs the locations changed again. I made it static to test.

Quote post 138 - explain how to add via dayz_server.pbo

TODO:
> bombs start to drop from chopper pos as it hits city borders
> chopper hovers at ground level for ~10 s while troops hop out
> reinstate random city selection (when confirmed sound working)
> nuke options (this is still a ways off)
> random siren sound selection per rotation (option)
> redistribute siren sounds to make a nicer pattern (ie calmest plays first, then more stressful as chopper approaches, super stressful when bombs are about to start)
> make chopper killable to stop event (add exception where loop exits if chopper is destroyed)
> error handling if chopper is accidentally killed
> 3 waypoints surrounding city so chopper flies around while bombing
> enable rmodyn to select different heli models (selectable if you have rmod or not to include more helis)
> clean up excess debug diag_logs
> clean up extra variables and make efficient
> clean up formatting, comment up, so it's all clear to everyone
