Kronzky's Urban Patrol Script, Familiar?

[SharpEyeHodgey]

Is anyone familiar with this script?
- http://kronzky.info/ups/

I have been using it and it does work. But! I have a problem with the units movement. No matter what, the infantry move at full speed, running everywhere. It says that the default movement is safe and limited speed, doesn't seem so though.

The mission I am making is a night/stealth one. So seeing the enemy running everywhere looks as though they know you are around yet they haven't even seen you. I have tried everything including using optional arguments mentioned in the readme file.

If anyone can help me that would be great.

Yeah LOVE this script, i use it in almost everything i do in editor, I think the newer A3 version the default is not safe, so just put in params.

nul = [this,"yourmarkername","Safe","column"] execVM "scripts\UPSMON.sqf";

The script will handle moods from there, switching between combat and safe by it self.

Cheers for readin and quick reply bro. I'll get back to ya as soon as I try this out.

Well mate this does infact work. So CHEERS!
A bit funny though, the infantry still seem to want to run now and than. They have their guns down by their side and walk about 4 steps and than do a run for about 8 steps, than back to walking.. really random. It might fix itself I dunno, maybe it's just doing it within the editor and will be fine once I publish it as a scenario.

I'm talkin to myself I know! lol. All I did to fix this walk/run problem was give every unit 1 move order on safe / limited speed and after that they randomly go about walking! no running until contacted. BEAUTYYY!!!

Cheers mate that seemed to be introduced couple of patches ago, never seen run walk thing till patch couple months back, thanks for the answer to that prob, be sure to make use of "random" command for units patrol so start random everytime and "randomup","NOWP3" for single snipers on random rooftops\topfloor.

I also combine this script with house patrol script and with that can create pretty full on battlefield fast...http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26090

Holy crap, yeah I can see those 2 scripts would work beautifully together. Cheers, thanks again mate. This has solved all my problems!

Oh man.. Just when i think I've got it working.. I tested it all through the editor and it worked fine. The Second I save and export to mulitplayer though, it doesn't work! I get an error message saying that it couldn't find the Scripts\UPSMON.SQF. Yet somehow in the editor it's fine. I think this games just super buggy.

If saying that, it means your script is missing from game folder, can you comfirm if in mp version? also did you DL the version i posted might help.

[SharpEyeHodgey]

Yeah I've followed everything spot on. For some reason this morning when I exported again to multiplayer after checking everything (Not changing anything) it worked fine, not a single error. ARMA 3 has always been buggy for me with the editor. Verified integrity of game cache and it says I have everything.. meh.

So works for ya in MP now? hope so as just about to start making missions with these scripts for my milsim group.

Yeah it just happened to work without any errors the second time I exported it to multiplayer. hopefully you don't have any trouble.
