Release: See how much space you have left in that tent!

AlienX · Jun 8, 2013

Help and discussion for seeing how much space is left in your tent starts here...

Gagi2 · Jun 9, 2013

there is already something like this its called CARGO CHECK... and works well so far =)
you select cargocheck from the scrollmenu... and voila... it shows how much space is left

but where is the content shown with your script?
maybe you can post a screenshot?

cyrq · Jun 9, 2013

It's displayed in the Gear UI

But it seems that AlienX forgot about the backpacks

A little fix:

Code:

private [ "_lookingat", "_type", "_maxGuns", "_maxMags", "_maxBags", "_cntGuns", "_cntMags", "_cntBags", "_fndDisplay", "_fndDisplay_Visible", "_dispEnum", "_dispControl", "_dispControlInitText", "_distance", "_typeName" ];
 
waitUntil {!isNil ("dayzLoginRecord")};
 
disableSerialization;
 
_dispControlInitText = "";
_lookingat = objNull;
 
while {true} do
{
    sleep 0.5;
    _fndDisplay = findDisplay 106;
    _fndDisplay_Visible = ( (str _fndDisplay) != "No display");
 
    if ( _fndDisplay_Visible ) then {
        if ( !isNull cursorTarget ) then {
            if ( isNull _lookingat ) then {
                _lookingat = cursorTarget;
            };
            _type = typeOf _lookingat;
            _distance = ((getPos _lookingat) distance (getPos player));
 
            if ( _distance < 10.5 ) then {
                _maxGuns = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportMaxWeapons");
                _maxMags = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportMaxMagazines");
_maxBags = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportmaxbackpacks");
         
                if ( (_maxGuns + _maxMags + _maxBags) > 0 ) then {
                    _typeName = getText(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "displayName");
                    _cntGuns = 0;
                    _cntMags = 0;

                    {
                        _cntGuns = _cntGuns + _x;
                    } foreach ( (getWeaponCargo _lookingat) select 1 );

                    } foreach ( (getMagazineCargo _lookingat) select 1 );
 
{
_cntBags = _cntBags + _x;
                    } foreach ( (getWeaponCargo _lookingat) select 1 );
             
                    _dispControl = _fndDisplay displayCtrl 1001; //156 is the title of the object (eg "old camping tent"), however it flashes every half a second or so - makes it unuseable... 1001 is the title of the dialog.
             
                    if ( _dispControlInitText == "" ) then {
                        _dispControlInitText = ctrlText _dispControl;
                    };
             
                    _dispControl ctrlSetText format [ "%8 (%2/%3 %4/%5 %6/%7)", _dispControlInitText, _cntGuns, _maxGuns, _cntMags, _maxMags, _cntBags, _maxBags, _typeName];
                };
            };
        };
    } else {
        _lookingat = objNull;
        _dispControlInitText = "";
    };
};

Uhm.... sorry to tell you that but it seems that tomorrow it's the release of dayz 1.7.7 and that will come with it^^.
But thanks anyway.

i believe it when i see it ^^

and this could also come in handy on my origins server...
had installed the other cargo check too...
lets see if this works too

AlienX · Jun 9, 2013

Thanks for the heads up about backpacks cyrq - totally forgot about them!

J3T: If that happens, then yaaay - if not then whatever

J3T · Jun 9, 2013

They just decliend it.... Kinda sucks.

Gagi2 · Jun 9, 2013

ha... i knew it... ^^
because of steam... wtf?
so everyone can update dayz with playwithsix or with dayzcommander... no one needs steam for this if they are not able to get their updates out in time...
and shame on steam... only one guy can make this update public... what happens if he dies?

otherwise... what would have happened if rocket fell of this fucking mountain?
no more updates because he has the key files to sign the files...
no standalone..

so why would i let this guy climb around on a mountain like a monkey if he is the only one who is responsible for the whole project?
and the whole project stands and falls (lol) with him (omg) ^^

J3T · Jun 9, 2013

Yeah kinda weird

.

AlienX · Jun 9, 2013

Well that is a shame indeed - as Gagi2 said, why not just release it over DayZ Commander or Six?!

Ah well.

Sorry to bother you sirs but the fix doesn't seem to work on my server although alienx's did. Help.

There ware some syntax errors as I edited this on the fly in the forum editor.
This should be ok:

Code:

private [ "_lookingat", "_type", "_maxGuns", "_maxMags", "_maxBags", "_cntGuns", "_cntMags", "_cntBags", "_fndDisplay", "_fndDisplay_Visible", "_dispEnum", "_dispControl", "_dispControlInitText", "_distance", "_typeName" ];

        _lookingat = objNull;
        _dispControlInitText = "";
    };
};

cyrq, i see you have used gui ID 1001, i had major issues with that with the text constantly flashing - do you have the same problem at all?

(happens a lot when looking at gear on helis).

cyrq · Jun 10, 2013

I didn't even test this - I'm done with DayZ server hosting

My guess is that you can use displayCtrl 156 without a problem, but you also need to disableSerialization

Nukefrazer · Jun 11, 2013

So that's why, hehehe. Thank u so much sirs! I owe u all!

AlienX · Jun 11, 2013

1.7.7 is now released - yay!
I guess i will keep the post here for people who still wish to run a 1.7.6.1 server

Happy coding!

marvel · Jun 11, 2013

Great mod!! My players are so happy with this. It doesn't work only for tents but for vehicles as well.

Two minor issues:

- When you open up the gear menu for something you can't store anything in, e.g. a bunch of stuff that's on the ground and you want to pick it up, you see a calculation in the gear menu.
- You don't always see space left in the tent, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and you'll have to open the gear menu 2 or 3 times for it to display.

AsianKid · Jul 15, 2013

Can this work on Taviana??

AlienX · Jul 15, 2013

In theory yes, but i have never tested or played that.

AsianKid · Jul 15, 2013

I give it a try later

Release: See how much space you have left in that tent!
