[Zeus] Player's Build Menu

Description
THIS WON'T WORK FOR BOHEMIA PUBLIC ZEUS!

You can modify this and remake it however you want, don't credit.

Player's Build Menu.

What is this?
Its a script that allows the players (by the permission of the Zeus) to build a variety of barricades (a bit similar to squad) and small structures at a cost of "Build points" which is a point-spending system integrated into the script itself, so players are limited on their capability to build structures based on how many points they have.
These structures include:
  • Razorwire barricade.
  • Watchtower.
  • Both Long and Round sandbag variants.
  • H-Block barrier.
  • Junk barricade (10m).
  • Tank hedgehog.
  • Dragon's teeth.
  • Ladder.
  • Portable Light (Double lamps variant).
  • Bar gate.
I would say its good enough to fortify a village against an enemy tank attack, If you have any more ideas of structures to add to the list send me those ideas!






How does the Zeus use this?


Well the usage is pretty easy since the gui is organized to be easily used, so I will just point out a bunch of features the Zeus panel features.
  • You can Enable the build menu for a player you choose by selecting a player from the player menu and using "Enable Build menu for selected player".

  • You can Enable the build menu for all players by using "Enable Build menu for all players".

  • You can easily disable the build menu for all players by using "Disable build menu for all players.".

  • You can Enable the build menu for any player joining the server by using "JIP management".

  • You can add points to selected player or all players by using "Add points to selected player" or "Add points to all players".

  • MAX number of build points for any players is 200 BP.


How do you give points?
Pretty easy, first you need to give the build menu access to a player (or players), now you have two options of giving points,
  1. As previously said you can either use "Add points to selected player" or "Add points to all players".

  2. Or a more dynamic way is that, you can give players MONEY, what money? There is an info button on the Zeus panel (next to the points input field) check it out for more info.
    Basically Money gets converted into points.

  3. Although not a third option, you can use a button called "Edit vehicle's inventory" to add money and building points to a vehicle of you choice, player then can either withdraw the points from the vehicle or withdraw money items from the vehicle inventory.


This is a collective work between Troalinism and Nucle (or nucle or Nucleus or Nuclei or nucleoli I can't do puns).

0-1 Sandman,

so, in the Description.ext of your mission, add the following line:

zeusCompositionScriptLevel = 2;

Note: if you don't have Description.ext in the mission folder, just create it (create a text file and rename it to Description.ext), for more info check: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Description.ext

Not working for me. Placing it down in my local server as zeus, helipad spawns and nothing else happens. Can you help me get this working?
TROALINISM  [author] 27 May, 2022 @ 1:09am 
no, because it requires you to select which players are going to have access to the menu, which is only possible through zeus, if you have a scripter you can ask him to change it to however you want it to work, without giving credit

So can you not just place this down in the editor and have it work?

First you need to know this won't work in Bohemia Public Zeus, now that's out of the way lets go about how you can use this composition:
1- When you are in the Zeus overlay, go to the Groups Tab (Top Right of the Zeus interface)
2- Then You will see there is 4 Icons under the Groups tab, Blue, Red, green and Yellow .
3- Click on the Yellow Icon, then you need to find a composition called [Zeus] Player's Build Menu , (of course you need to have already subscribed to this composition before doing any of this)
4- if you can't find it, that means you need to restart the game, its a bug with Arma 3 where it doesn't sometimes show Steam subscribed compositions.

Thank you Zeus dwellers, I will hopefully (not a promise) add a little button on the zeus panel to allow you to add money items to any container/vehicle you want.
