Custom spawn points
- Thread starter gunnar
- Start date
Easily done. There is a script out there by player2 that does this, but if that's not exactly what you're looking for, i can rewrite it to whatever you need.
I looked into player2's script earlier and its not compatable with 1.8. a whole line of script in her tutorial is no where to be found. Ive been searching all over the net for custom spawns.
Basically what i'm trying to accomplish is when someone donates, they can get a custom spawn, like stary or balota, anywhere they please. Must be by uid though and worldspace. if you could work something up that would be awesome of you.

everything in her tutorial still applies, except in the init section. dayzLoginRecord is a different variable now, I can't say which as I don't use 1.8
what file did you look in
especially since all 1.8 did is add some features and change some variables.
dropbox your WHOLE playerSetup unmodified.
May I request that you read files instead of just ctrl + f'ing for it? Honestly, I can't blame you for missing this as that's an old script and she hasn't been updating it, but you probably would've caught this if you had read through it. I did mention that they changed some variables...
Code:
PVCDZ_plr_Login2 = [_worldspace,_state];line 235
+ when you read files you get a sense of what they are trying to do with what code etc etc, helps you start to understand and write your own codes
Always need more people that understand and can write code ^.^I believe she comments the file she uses, but just incase, find the line that says setPos, and the numbers that follow are worldspaces, which you change to suit your needs, say if you want donators to spawn at their bases and whatnot you would use the worldspace of their bases...etc. Not sure if this is a necessary post, as I do believe she describes what each bit does
not entirley sure if this works or not, or if in just doing it wrong....i left the newspawn.sqf stock just replaced the uid in there with my uid, died a few times and spawned in different places...mabey my init.sqf isnt correct?

};You litterally changed NOTHING. dayzPlayerLogin2 is replaced by the PVCDZ jank I posted above from playerSetup....the !isNil dayzLoginRecord is also different, though for 1.8 IDK what it is. You'll have to check your publicvariable.txt / log ( i think ) to find that one out. but this DOES need to be modified to work at all
should also mention that since this IS a setPos script (and that is used for hacker teleporting ) you will have to remove the stock dayz Anti hack, as well as the REsec lines from the init
got it...now i changed it to look like this. my bad for not catching that. im a noob.
Code:
//##UID Based Custom Spawn Locations##
p2_newspawn = compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "scripts\newspawn.sqf";
waitUntil {!isNil ("dayzLoginRecord")};
if (PVCDZ_plr_Login2 select 2) then
{
player spawn p2_newspawn;
};still have to change the dayzLoginRecord to something else. in 1.7.7.2 it was PVDZ_login_record or some jank. Pretty sure they changed that variable too.
