Init.c editing: changing spawn items

[FurryKeidran]

Basically on my private server I've added a crap ton of stuff I spawn with, just to kind of give me a good foot up when starting (canteen, gun, more food, etc). I first added clothes, backpacks, a vest, and I thought that by spawning them in first I could add more stuff, but it seems after the first few items fill up the pants inventory nothing else spawns. Is there another command I should be using instead to put items in a specific location? Like have some items in pants, some in jacket, some in backpack, etc?
Thanks,
Mark

hi m8 so how would i start with a silenced ak, mags, scope and bullets and some food and water, vitamin tab and antibiotics, and purification tabs

with just normal clothing though

for each player that joins my server

many thanks for any help as not too clever at this stuff

doesnt have to be ak but something similar

you have the right idea with player.RemoveAllItems(); just in the wrong place ( at least i see it as being in the wrong place as you was adding items just to remove them with that ).

If you use it here instead:

		EntityAI itemTop;
		EntityAI itemEnt;
		ItemBase itemBs;
		float rand;
		
		player.RemoveAllItems();

That will remove the random generated ones / chosen clothing.

On to the clothing you want, create a line space after removing the clothes and create your outfit in the same way as you are inventory items ( if you want the option of putting specific items into a backpack or something you will need to alter the way you create / add the items ).

Just adding clothing without the option of adding loot to a specific piece of clothing do:

		player.RemoveAllItems();
		
		itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory("");
		itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory("");
		itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(""); 
		itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory("");
		itemEnt = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory("");

To have the ability to set loot into a specific piece of clothing you will need to do:

		EntityAI DEFINECLOTHINGHERE = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(""); 

so you can spawn the loot item to that location later by doing:

			itemEnt = DEFINECLOTHINGHERE.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(""); 

Edit: I can help further if you would like just add me.

Smokey, if you want you can help me. I have never programmed in my life, but having my own DayZ server I felt I wanted to be able to adjust fresh spawn loadouts at the very least.

What I want is something that randomizes the clothes on the character from a pool of preset items that I have determined in advance. I googled a little and found commands that I believe would do the trick:

TStringArray tops = {"POSSIBLE-TOP-1","POSSIBLE-TOP-2"};
TStringArray pants = {"POSSIBLE-PANTS-1","POSSIBLE-PANTS-2"};
TStringArray shoes = {"POSSIBLE-SHOES-1","POSSIBLE-SHOES-2"};
TStringArray backpacks = {"POSSIBLE-BP-1","POSSIBLE-BP-2"};
TStringArray vests = {"POSSIBLE-VEST-1","POSSIBLE-VEST-2"};

And

EntityAI item = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(tops.GetRandomElement());
EntityAI item2 = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(pants.GetRandomElement());
EntityAI item3 = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(shoes.GetRandomElement());
EntityAI item4 = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(backpacks.GetRandomElement());
EntityAI item6 = player.GetInventory().CreateInInventory(vests.GetRandomElement());

Now, I get that the lower lines of text most likely will pull values from the upper ones; randomizing the outcome so that when a new player spawns in, he will either have whatever I put in "POSSIBLE-TOP-1 or in "POSSIBLE-TOP-2" on his chest and the same applies to the other categories.

However, I have absolutely no idea where to input these lines of text. This is my code, and as you can see, I haven't edited it much from the original one, just removed a few entries and added a couple more.

Now, I don't really know what all the brackets and paragraphs and squiggly lines do. I basically just throw ♥♥♥♥ into the mix and see what sticks. ^^ I just want to know how I should build up the code so it will do what I described. Could you tell me? :)

Those necromancers are gaining more power by the minute!


you are soo late to the party, that the server has already closed.

I always wonder.... what the duck made you dig up a 4 year old post, and then comment this?

whats going on here?

@smokey, you seem to be a guru :-) il add you if ok and maybe you can assist me on custom loadout INIT.c?

[Hipocrates]

anybody knows the item code for the drummag and akm suppressor?

[Hipocrates]

and possibly the small tent?

Think it's these -

"Mag_AKM_Drum75Rnd"
"AK_Suppressor"
"MediumTent"

[Echoz]

im just here to wallow in the pain of reading non-programmers' code

[<ACR> Rambo]

Hi just wondering if anyone can help me please? I have a deathmatch server with a few loadouts. I have them all spawning in with guns clothes etc. I have the mags spawning in the guns but you still need to reload your gun. I have seen on another deathmatch server the gun is already loaded ready to shoot without reloading the chamber. Anyone know the script that needs to be added on init.c ? Thanks in advance if anyone knows the answer to this as it has been driving me mad looking for the script. Also I don't mind sharing my init.c if anyone is looking for a PVP loadout.

init.c editing for Loadouts is the outdated method. With the latest game updates, you can now just write a .json file, placed in a folder called "custom" in your mission folder, and add a pointer to the folder in your cfggameplay.json, as below:

"PlayerData":
{
"disablePersonalLight": true,
"spawnGearPresetFiles": [add loadouts here],

[<ACR> Rambo]

Ok thanks I know a little about .json, but will this then allow me to have guns fully loaded with mags and ready to shoot with a loaded chamber? i.e not pressing reload to start shooting.

As it is now, after that latest update, Loot weapons have a high chance of having a round chambered, so no modifications is even needed for a "chance" to have loadout weapons "loaded" .. I'd have to look at the latest code to know if they also put in an easily edited parameter, or if it is via the encrypted game code, that would require a light-weight mod.
