(REPLACED) Vandeanson's Apocalypse

ATTENTION:
This version is replaced with: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2856307323


or VA is a highly adjustable, dynamic site and event spawner framework that spices up every mission you create or play by adding sites of interests, events, enemies, survival elements and loot to your world.

VA is not a MISSION but a mod that runs on top of any mission you play.

- materials and blueprints (WIP)
- add any classname you want to the building menue (accessed by pressing "T"):

(in initplayerlocal.sqf)
sleep 10;
VABB_ObjectsBP pushback "classname"; or
VABB_ObjectsBP append ["classname1","classname2","classname3"];

VA is now compatible with inidb2 persistency. Reconnecting players can continue to play where and in what state they have left.

Player: Position, Direction, Health, Loadout, Ravage Hunger/Thirst, VA Blood state, VA Bleeding state, VA Infection state are saved.
The Ravage stats save has no effect if Ravage or the Ravage Survival Module is not active.
Dependency: To save player data and basebuilding objects, the Dedicated Server/Hosted MP host must have the inidb2 mod activated. (Clients don't need this/it should have no effect)

Note: Add a local INIDB2 copy to your launcher (for Hosted MP Hosts) or your Dedicated Server, dedicated to the current mission/server, else you will load in player saves from previous missions/server setups.

- Automated loot arrays based on active mods with customisation options and connected to loot economy (player/AI gear and lootspawns in buildings and lootcrates). VA categorizes loot into military and civilian grade loot.
Military loot will only spawn at military sites.

- tons of settings to adjust or disable nearly every aspect of this mod

REQUIREMENTS

This mod requires only CBA_A3.

Ravage Mod

Has been the inspiration for the VA mod, hence VA is made with Ravage in mind.

There is however no dependency, you can use the mod with or without Ravage.

INSTALLATION

- Subscribe to VA and activate the Mod in your A3 Launcher.

- Subscribe to and activate the Mod in your A3 Launcher.

- (Optional)
- (Optional) Needed for the Trader Camp and the Z Infection.

HOW TO USE

- Start your mission, VA will start spawning in its FEATURES according to the default settings.

OR

1. Open a new or existing mission in the A3 Eden Editor.

2. Open - > Settings - > Addon Options -> Vandeanson’s Apocalypse (various sub-menus).

3. Adjust the settings to your liking (you may save your preferred settings to easily copy for another project

(press save within the CBA_A3 settings menu).

-> Make your changes under the SERVER tab and click the checkboxes to overwrite MISSION and CLIENT. This will block other players to change settings in MP and it will align the settings.

4. Save your mission in the Eden Editor. Your current settings are saved to this mission now

5. Further adjust your mission or start to play

6. To test the VA settings, you can activate ZEUS support and Debug Markers under the “Vandeanson’s Apocalypse - General” settings. Then place the ZEUS Gamemaster module in the editor and assign it to your player.

Adjust your VA settings for your Dedicated Server: Settings can be exported using the export function of the CBA Settings menue and be pasted into an optional file in the userconfig folder. The filepath is Arma 3\userconfig\cba_settings.sqf, where "Arma 3" is the games installation folder.
This works for a dedicated server as well as the clients, but requires the -filePatching startup parameter.
