And MORE! ... * ** NEW CONFIG VALUES: |DMS_MaxStaticMissions| |DMS_TimeToFirstStaticMission| |DMS_TimeBetweenStaticMissions| |DMS_StaticMissionTimeOut| |DMS_StaticMissionTimeoutResetRange| |DMS_StaticMinPlayerDistance| |DMS_UsePredefinedMissionLocations| |DMS_PredefinedMissionLocations| |DMS_MinDistFromWestBorder| |DMS_MinDistFromEastBorder| |DMS_MinDistFromSouthBorder| |DMS_MinDistFromNorthBorder| |DMS_StaticMissionTypes| ** * Added new value "DMS_Version". * ** "DMS_fnc_SpawnAIStatic" is now "DMS_fnc_SpawnAIStaticMG"; donthasslethehoff, mercbase, and testmission have been updated with the new names** * DMS will now check to make sure that marker colors passed to fn_CreateMarker are valid marker colors. * You can now control how far away from each border a mission will spawn (each border is separate: west, east, south, north). All "supported" maps have config values adjusted in "map_configs". * New salt flats base by [Darth Rogue from SOA](http://soldiersofanarchy.net/). * **IMPLEMENTED STATIC MISSIONS (initial version). "saltflats" is currently the only static mission for Altis ONLY. However, it shouldn't be too difficult to export it to other maps (once positions have been adjusted). ** * Fixed a couple of outdated/inaccurate function documentation comments. * **FINALLY REMOVED THE Default Value "-1" PARAMS RPT SPAM. I FOUND IT. YESSSSS** * Fixed fn_CleanUp producing debug logs even with debug disabled. * Fixed the CleanUp list not Cleaning Up after itself (hah!). * Added diag_tickTime and DMS_Version to debug logs. * You can now define a custom function for DMS_FillCrate. It will be passed params from _lootValues select 0. ** I haven't tested this at all. Just keep that in mind ;) ** * You can now manually define mission spawning locations into an array, and that array will be used to find a location. Each location will still be checked for validity, and if no valid positions are found from the list, a random one is then generated using the normal method. ** I didn't test this part at all either :P ** * fn_FindSafePos should be even more efficient now, and even more controllable. * Quite a few new functions; most notably: fn_GroupReinforcementsManager * fn_GroupReinforcementsManager is used by static missions to provide reinforcements for AI once they fall below a certain threshold (and/or any other parameters you provide). Make sure to check out the function documentation and give any suggestions for new reinforcement types! * New function "DMS_fnc_ImportFromM3E_Static" will simply import a base from the provided file (under static). No conversion to relative position or anything. Simply spawning, positioning, and disabling simulation. * Removed the check for being outside map edges from fn_isValidPosition. * "hardcore" AI will now be even more difficult ;)	2015-10-30 21:18:58 -05:00
eraser1	30136c8f37	I know... it's been over a week... gimme a break ... #### October 17, 2015 (2:30 PM CST-America): * **NEW CONFIG VALUES**: |DMS_TimeToFirstMission| |DMS_ShowDifficultyColorLegend| |DMS_TerritoryNearBlacklist| |DMS_MinSurfaceNormal| (Used to be DMS_MaxSurfaceNormal, simply renamed) |DMS_ai_launchers_per_group| * **UPDATING ALL OF YOUR MISSION FILES IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING** * RENAMED "DMS_MaxSurfaceNormal" to "DMS_MinSurfaceNormal". I must have been very tired when I named it... * DMS_MinSurfaceNormal is now 0.9 by default, but will be 0.95 for Altis and Bornholm (since they're relatively large/flat maps). Esseker is still 0.85. If you want to convert DMS_MinSurfaceNormal to degrees, you would take the arc-cosine of the surfaceNormal, and that will give you the degrees from horizontal. For example, arccos(0.9) is about 25 degrees. Google: "arccos(0.9) in degrees" * Tweaked and rebalanced "DMS_BanditMissionTypes". Most of the spawn chances are the same, they're just reduced in order to prevent the creation of arrays that are far larger than they need to be. * You can now manually define how long it takes for the first mission to spawn after a restart. * DMS will now by default create markers on the bottom left of the map to show which colors correspond to which difficulty. It isn't very pretty, but it gets the point across. * DMS will now manually calculate the center of the map and its radius, if it isn't preconfigured by DMS. * You can now specify the vehicles to spawn for missions: "bandits", "cardealer", "construction", "donthasslethehoff", and "thieves". * You can now specify the spawning location of any mission (and whether or not to use an alternative location if the provided location is invalid). This will allow for easy integration of DMS into admin tools. * Added support for scripts to be executed on mission completion or mission failure (this will allow you to have "multi-part" missions, where you would simply spawn the next part of the mission if the previous is completed). * Restructured DMS_DEBUG from the previous patch in favor of a more "optimized" method. * DMS_fnc_findSafePos is completely overhauled; DMS no longer uses "BIS_fnc_findSafePos". It also now throttles minSurfaceNormal on repeated failure. You can now determine whether or not the mission should spawn on water (however, I don't suggest you use this function for water spawns yet). * You can also now define a minimum distance from other territories for missions. * DMS_fnc_IsValidPosition will now check for water depth if the provided position is meant to be checked as a "water spawn". It will now also check for nearby missions from A3XAI or VEMF (untested). * DMS_fnc_IsValidPosition now checks whether or not the position is outside of the map borders. * DMS_fnc_SelectOffsetPos will now return the 3rd element of the provided position as-is. * You can now have multiple AI within a group with a launcher. * AI now have a 5-second godmode after spawning. * You can now spawn a crate using ASL pos. DMS_fnc_SpawnCrate will also make sure that the provided classname is valid. * Just like SpawnCrate, "DMS_fnc_SpawnNonPersistentVehicle" and "DMS_fnc_SpawnPersistentVehicle" will now make sure that the provided classname is valid. * "DMS_fnc_SpawnPersistentVehicle" now supports ASL spawning. * Added support for [Rod Serling's](https://github.com/Rod-Serling) AVS. * General optimization.	2015-10-17 14:39:07 -05:00
eraser1	0544cfe9e7	Readme changes, new debug fnc, fixes, tweaks ... Created disclaimer for DMS. Now mentioning that HC for DMS isn't that good. Some structure stuff in readme (let's see if it works lol) * **NEW CONFIG VALUE: DMS_Use_Map_Config** * You can now overwrite "main config values" with map-specific config values located in the new "map_configs" folder. This should allow you to use one DMS PBO if you have multiple servers with different maps. Included examples for Altis, Bornholm, Esseker, and Tavi (Taviana). * Because of the above implementation, DMS by default will not include the salt flats blacklist for findSafePos. In addition, it is preconfigured to the hilly terrains in Esseker and Taviana, as well as reducing all of the blacklist distances due to the smaller map size in Esseker. * Created new function "DMS_fnc_DebugLog". All DMS files (that produced debug logs) have been changed, including mission files. However, updating them is not important (and completely pointless if you don't even use DMS_DEBUG). * Fixed a few locations where it said "sized" instead of "seized". Thanks to [icomrade](https://github.com/icomrade) for pointing them out. * DMS now utilizes the "ARMA_LOG" DLL (if it exists) by infiSTAR to produce debug logs (if enabled). All debug logs now also include server uptime (in seconds) and server FPS. * The FSM no longer produces debug logs. * AI Locality manager will now run every minute. * Debug logs for "DMS_fnc_MissionsMonitor" will only output the mission name and the position, instead of all of the parameters. * "DMS_fnc_IsNearWater" will now check the provided position itself for water. * "DMS_fnc_IsValidPosition" will now do a surfaceNormal check within a 5 meter radius of the provided position as well. * "_customGearSet" should now actually work for "DMS_fnc_SpawnAISoldier", and the function title comment has been updated for the slightly tweaked syntax.	2015-10-09 20:35:07 -05:00
eraser1	ed45b5d55c	Major UI Improvements, Fixes, Improved readme ... * **NEW CONFIG VALUES**: |DMS_Show_Kill_Poptabs_Notification| |DMS_Show_Kill_Respect_Notification| |DMS_dynamicText_Duration| |DMS_dynamicText_FadeTime| |DMS_dynamicText_Title_Size| |DMS_dynamicText_Title_Font| |DMS_dynamicText_Message_Color| |DMS_dynamicText_Message_Size| |DMS_dynamicText_Message_Font| |DMS_standardHint_Title_Size| |DMS_standardHint_Title_Font| |DMS_standardHint_Message_Color| |DMS_standardHint_Message_Size| |DMS_standardHint_Message_Font| |DMS_textTiles_Duration| |DMS_textTiles_FadeTime| |DMS_textTiles_Title_Size| |DMS_textTiles_Title_Font| |DMS_textTiles_Message_Color| |DMS_textTiles_Message_Size| |DMS_textTiles_Message_Font| * "DMS_PlayerNotificationTypes" has been adjusted to include "systemChatRequest" and the brand new "textTilesRequest". **NOTE:** Due to the way "text tiles" work, a player can only have one on his screen at a time. As a result, if another text tile is created while the mission message is up, the message will immediately disappear to display the new text tile. Currently, the "Frag Messages" (the ones that say "Player Kill +100") use text tiles. I don't think it should be a major issue (especially if you use "systemChatRequest", so the player can just scroll up), but if I get reports of it being stupid, I will default to "dynamicTextRequest", which should also look pretty damn nice. * These changes should make it much easier for people to use DMS notification functions for other purposes. * Fixed AI waypoints - the AI should now properly circle the objective at the proper radius. * Tweaked "DMS_AI_WP_Radius_moderate" and "DMS_AI_WP_Radius_difficult" (reduced the radii). Due to the AI pathing fix. * Fixed a couple typos in "DMS_fnc_SpawnAISoldier". "_customGearSet" should work now (although I'm fairly certain nobody uses it since nobody ever complained :P ) * Improved "DMS_fnc_SpawnNonPersistentVehicle"; Vehicles should no longer spawn jumbled up in most cases (like cardealer). Also, it's updated to the latest Exile methods to ensure that vehicles have no nightvision/thermal if configured to do so in Exile configs. Also added the "MPKilled" EH used by Exile for non-persistent (persistent vehicles already had it). * You can now choose whether or not you want to display the poptabs or respect kill messages when killing an AI with "DMS_Show_Kill_Poptabs_Notification" and "DMS_Show_Kill_Respect_Notification". Both are enabled by default. * Fixed typos in the "OnKilled" EH (didn't really affect anything) * Fixed cases when "currentMuzzle" would return a number. Thanks to [azmodii](https://github.com/azmodii) for the reminder. * Optimized the "AI share info" function in "OnKilled"	2015-10-08 19:16:48 -05:00
eraser1	829943bf65	mI gramur Iz gUd (new mission, function, and features) ... * **NEW CONFIG VALUES**: |DMS_MarkerText_ShowMissionPrefix| |DMS_MarkerText_MissionPrefix| |DMS_MarkerText_ShowAICount| |DMS_MarkerText_AIName| * New function: DMS_fnc_SpawnPersistentVehicle. It will spawn inaccessible vehicles by default and convert VALID pincode inputs to the proper format. * New mission: "Car Thieves" (thieves.sqf). It uses the new DMS_fnc_SpawnPersistentVehicle. When the mission is completed successfully, the code is displayed in the completion message. * You can now add a "prefix" to the marker text of each mission. * You can now display the number of remaining AI in the marker text (it should update about every 15 seconds). * Rearranged the missions in the config to look prettier. Don't judge. * Added the "Zamak", "Tempest", and "HEMMT" to "DMS_TransportTrucks" array. Removed "Exile_Car_Van_Black" * "dynamicTextRequest" messages will now appear at the top of the screen, so it shouldn't distract/block stuff in focus. * Fixed some spelling, improved some grammar (will require mission updates, it's really minor though).	2015-10-04 22:27:22 -05:00
eraser1	8562289765	Some more required changes... sorry ... * **You must update all of your mission files; the mission message system as well as the calling parameters for DMS_fnc_FindSafePos have been overhauled and will be incompatible with previous versions.** * NEW CONFIG VALUES: |DMS_ThrottleBlacklists| |DMS_AttemptsUntilThrottle| |DMS_ThrottleCoefficient| |DMS_MinThrottledDistance| * Decreased "DMS_TraderZoneNearBlacklist","DMS_MissionNearBlacklist","DMS_WaterNearBlacklist" * Changed "DMS_dynamicText_Color" to "#FFFFFF" (white) * Replaced weapon classes in "DMS_CrateCase_Sniper" to the base classes; all attachments should now spawn in the box separately. * New function DMS_fnc_IsValidPosition (uses logic that was previously from "DMS_fnc_FindSafePos"). * You can now manually define every individual parameter for DMS_fnc_findSafePos per-mission, instead of using global parameters. * AI will now be offloaded to an HC even with "DMS_ai_offload_to_client" set to false. * All of the previously "supported" values for "DMS_PlayerNotificationTypes" are now PROPERLY supported. DMS_PlayerNotificationTypes is now set to default "dynamicTextRequest" and "systemChatRequest". * Tweaked "cardealer" mission, the cars should no longer spawn inside of each other.	2015-10-03 22:32:42 -05:00
