Thread: Random IED Placement

  1. #1

    Random IED Placement

    I'm attempting to create random IED's throughout a map within a certain radius,

    These IED's should be completely random/dynamic and should even be able to spawn within a friendly base at times.

    So far I am using ingame objects and commands as opposed to a script itself,
    I'm just wondering where to start or if there is even a script out there that allows me to do that.
    Preferably a script where I can change the ammo created, for example, if the script uses Sidewinders as the explosion, I should be able to change to Mk82 bomb explosion.

    So far from what I've found, they are all either pre-made scripts that don't allow such a thing, or else they are fully static.

    If you're prepared to use an addon, my IED kit might help.

    You give it a location and a radius, plus a couple of other parameters that tell it what type of IEDs you want spawned and it does it for you.

    It also spawns the trigger mechanisms for the devices plus appropriate sized explosions. There's also a IED disarming device you can use on them.

    Documentation is not a dirty word.

    A script would be more preferred (If possible),
    However if I have to, I will resort to your modification and use that.

    I have been trying to make it script only, but it's a long slog and won't be ready any time soon.

    If you need some help with the addons and stuff, let me know. I hope it's fairly well explained in the package.

    Tank's addon's pretty nice. But, if you really need a script, i think bon's IED would suit you, you should be even able to mess with it if you need to change the ammo types. (well i guess you'd have to contact him if you make any changes and plan a public release, though i seem to remember you're authorized to modify almost everything in MSO).
