Preventing AI from shooting traders

[BetterDeadThanZed]

What stops the bandits from shooting the traders? I'm setting up some custom missions with DZMS and they are shooting the traders. I understand that with the last version of DZAI, this problem was solved, so I'm curious how it was achieved so I can try to work it into DZMS.

Trader setcaptive true would work. No idea if that's what they did, but that would work.

Try setting the traders to captive. This will work.
Trader Setcaptive true

 

[BetterDeadThanZed]

Try setting the traders to captive. This will work.
Trader Setcaptive true

Not sure I understand. Where would I set that?

 

[ShootingBlanks]

In the script that created the traders. Not an epoch user, so a bit foggy on the location. Where the create unit line is, just below that.

I can detail it for you in a few hours when I get home.

what file is this located in?

That would be in your dayz_server/mission/mission.sqf file I think. Its in the same folder as your dynamic vehicles, and it has the createagent line for each trader. if you do _this setcaptive true; for each trader they wont be shot at by any enemies.

_unit_62 = objNull;
if (true) then
{
_this = _group_1 createUnit ["Dr_Hladik_EP1", [6329.4502, 7781.6753, 0.74679714], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
_unit_62 = _this;
_this setDir 486.5495;
_this setVehicleInit "this allowDammage false; this disableAI 'FSM'; this disableAI 'MOVE'; this disableAI 'AUTOTARGET'; this disableAI 'TARGET'; this setBehaviour 'CARELESS'; this forceSpeed 0;";
_this setUnitAbility 0.60000002;
if (false) then {_group_1 selectLeader _this;};
};


_this setcaptive true; goes?

 

[ShootingBlanks]

Yes. For each one of the traders

 

[osmox1971]

where in the script should i put it?
_this = _group_1 createUnit ["Dr_Hladik_EP1", [6329.4502, 7781.6753, 0.74679714], [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
_this setcaptive true;
_unit_62 = _this;
_this setDir 486.5495;
_this setVehicleInit "this allowDammage false; this disableAI 'FSM'; this disableAI 'MOVE'; this disableAI 'AUTOTARGET'; this disableAI 'TARGET'; this setBehaviour 'CARELESS'; this forceSpeed 0;";
_this setUnitAbility 0.60000002;
if (false) then {_group_1 selectLeader _this;};
};
