This is really usefull because damaged helis in base are broken rotors in range of breaking rotor stuff... 

It's only in base and FOB areas tho.  Not out in the field, you'll still need to get a repair spec/engineer to do that for you.

Nice (a quad and a tank require the same amount of people?)

Yes

I don't know but maybe change the amount of player needed if the Bobcat is within 5m... (that's a realism suggestion)

We thought about that but because bobcats are rather rare we didn't do it.  Although thinking of it i might make it x amount of people or a bobcat.

Does that means after the 3rd teamkill you are kicked?

No, all user input gets disabled.  You will not be able to do anything in arma you will have to alt + f4 (or something similar).  You'll get a clear warning on the second team kill.

What happen if the CAS make a massive friendly fire?

Pilots are excluded as the script can't tell whether or not a pilot crashed or knowingly TKed people.  If you teamkill several people at the same time the script will only count as 1 teamkill.  All the TKs do get logged in the system tho.

Yeepi kaï. (One of the engineer was able to do that but extending it to all engineer is good) 

All repair specs and the engineer can currently do it. And i make sure it actually works and isn't just an option that doesn't do anything

Yeah but in the field, you can blow up things...

I experienced it a time ago but i thought this was removed as i wasn't able to find the option anymore...

It didn't work so i temporarily removed it thinking i'd fix it in the version after.  I believe this was 5-6 versions ago   It kinda slipped my mind.

(I'm going to spoil a little secret, I didn't touch how many and which vehicles spawn )

 

And I'll look into the save gear thingy.  I might have accidentally deleted it when messing about in the file it's in.

omg why aren't the hummingbirds flying, just felt like there was one available at all times!

Hey

Speaking of vehicle spawn, I encounter a blackwasp problem on Malden serveur: it spawned with it's gear under the deck of the USS (and so with damage) and unable to repair it as they were no repair spec on the server)

[Stanhope]

I've seen it a few times now and think that it's a problem with the abandon script.  If a pilot gets hit at mach 1 and ejects at an altitude of 2 km the jet will go out of the abandon range before it hits the ground.  Because of this it will despawn and respawn on the carrier but when this happens the current state of that jet will be remembered by the script.  Meaning that its gear will be up and the jet will be damaged.  
I'll have a look into a way to fix that.

Echoing comments above; really liking the new FOB design and skins that have been put in. Few points of feedback (I've only been playing a little mind)

 

T100 Section: When I encountered this a few moments ago 2/3 of the T100's spawned upside down.

 

Side missions: The couple of times I've played since the update it seems side missions are rarer as I've not seen any. Despite this I noticed a few rewards spawned today when I logged in; has the timer for their spawn been increased?

 

Question:

 

Say you're gunning a MBT and you put a round in a vehicle which turns out to be friendly killing the three crew; instant user input disabled?

 

Suggestion:

 

Could we swap the Medic HEMTT for an uncovered transport version? For those times it does get used it would make it a tad more realistic than having your squad laying in the back!

[ansin11]

@Stanhope BIS doesn't allow us to touch any landing gears with scripts. Saying it now, just in case.

Unfortunately that's how arma is.  I'll try and find a way around crappy bis functions

I have noticed that at least once a side mission bugged out causing the entire side mission script to stop.  I'll have a look into it to try to figure out why.  (no the timernext hasn't been increased)

If the TKs happen simultaneously the script sees it as 1 TK.  It will however be logged how many and which people you TKed.

If nobody minds sure.  I just had the exact opposite request a few versions ago

 

@ansin11 I'll keep it in mind, tnx for the heads up

Fair enough, perhaps leave it there and put the uncovered HEMTT at Guardian to aid deployment?

I&A 3.3.1 is now out and running on EU1 and EU2.

 

- [tweaked] Service script, rewrote the rearm section
- [tweaked] Vehicle unflip action.  Now allows for 4 player or a bobcat
- [fixed] Side missions not spawning
- [fixed] Save gear option not showing up
- [fixed] TK-script displaying wrong messages
- [fixed] Radio tower completion hint displaying wrong AO name format
- [fixed] (hopefully) Cache subobjective shouldn't bugout and if it does the AO should still be completable

If i understood it well, this props was to bring backunused vehicle to base, right?

Can't it be a difference between ground vehicle and air vehicles in scripts? just these two categories?

If so, you could program destruction and respawn of a new one for air unit and just the respawn for ground unit.

Yes. to do this action with the bobcat will we should be inside the bobcat as ??? (driver,gunner,commander,any) position or outside?

In the vehicle that is flipped or near the flipped vehicle, not in the bobcat

Yea, I know, little oversight of me.  Easy to fix and i'll hopefully have a version out fixing this later today.

And i don't know why, it shouldn't be locked but for some reason it is.  I'll see if i can find a way around it.

Groundservice dosn't rearm vehicles with multiple magazines correctly

- Example:

A Hunter HMG has 2x200 Cal. 50 on spawn.

After wasting all bullets and rearming at the Service-Pad 

it says the rearming is completed after rearming 1x200 Cal. 50 rounds.

[AhoyWorld Outreach]

3.3.3.

 

- [fixed] Rearm script getting stuck in a loop when the vehicle has nothing to rearm

- [fixed] Several side missions not completing

[Sentri]

1.

After rearming vehicles like a Strider have 0 Ammo for the laser on the commander seat.

 

2.

Smokegrenades will not be resuppleied

 

3.

Side mission: Free IDAP

- after killing all enemy units and freeing all the hostages

  mission won't be completed

[AhoyWorld Outreach]

3.3.4 is live with the following changes:
- [added] Radiotower sub-obj will spawn with minefield
- [fixed] Side mission objective marker not despawning
- [tweaked] Unflip vehicle action range increased
- [tweaked] Radiotower jet made more deadly
- [tweaked] Jets and UAVs dont have a laser. They rely on infantry to desigate for them
- [tweaked] Units spawned by the main AO.  Now: 1x MBT, 2x-4x tigris, 2x-4x APC/IFV, 3x-5x car/MRAP, 8x normal inf group, 3x AA team, 3x AT team, 4x recon squad, max 15 garrisoned buildings in the center of the AO.

I think i now found a fix, it isn't in 3.3.4 but should be in 3.3.5 if it proves to be an actual fix in testing on a dedi server.

Side Mission: Free IDAP

 

 

2.

Just a thought "Never touch a running system" meaning don't replace code that works with some that dosn't.

 

Would be nice if we could get the old Service-Pads back 

and also remove/disable all Side Missions that dosn't work

so we don't have to deal with stuff that dosn't work as it's 

supposed to do.

 

[Stanhope]

I've found a fix for the free IDAP mission.  I had already created the variable that that error message is telling you that hasn't been created.  I just forgot to broadcast it to all connected clients.  It's fixed in the next update.

The old service pad uses the same code for rearm.  It also only rearms 1 magazine.  If it didn't i'd go right back to it.  People just didn't notice earlier.
