It appears the most commonly accepted "fix" for the keypad dialog disappearing when using the scroll menu to unlock a vehicle is to bind a custom key. If you just change ExileClient_gui_keypadDialog_event_onKeyUp to not respond to dik code 0x1C, which is what 99% of people use to activate a scroll menu item, it will solve the problem. I overrode that in config.cpp and just commented out the closedialog 0; for 0x1C to get it to work. Been bugging me for quite a while lol. I suppose I could check to see if ExileClientPinCode has something in it instead, but I just wanted to get it fixed. Most people will use the numpad enter key (0x9C) after typing a code anyways.

I have one coming soon Maybe another week

A2 infiSTAR has this problem as well if you're in there fixing things

Shouldn't since the client won't be doing anything with that. infiSTAR only does client side filtering/checking.

That's not too bad. What's your average server fps under a normal load like that? Sorry for all the questions, I'm trying to gauge what to expect when I finally put up an A3 server. I most likely will end up doing an fsm anyways and a custom spawner. I want a little different logic on how to spawn zombies. But if I can skip doing the fsm right away, that would be a plus

It's not ExileZ that spawns the threads, this spawner is fairly tame in what it does. It's Z&D that does the extra threads with the zombie logic How many people on your server and how many zombies max have you seen?

I've seen some profiling of some servers running DMS and Z&D and the fps hits below 5fps, so yeah, the more populated, the worse it gets. Z&D having over 150+ active threads serverside.

The plan is to figure out what needs to be done to make it run well in multiplayer, then I'll make a suggestion to Ryan on the steam workshop. Either way, once I get through finalizing my setup for Exile, I'll work on the zombies and figure out something to make them not kill server performance. I've seen a lot of posts where people have their server performance tank and it usually boils down to 100s of threads being spawned server side b/c of the zombies This will be my first attempt at writing an fsm lol - we'll see how it goes

@yesyesjo I decompiled the pbo and it seems his "fix" for the invisible AI in the driver's seat was to wait 0.5 seconds before hiding it and then deleting it. I hope this is a temporary fix. On that note though, I've done a pretty extensive examination of the Z&D mod and have determined it is absolutely not good to run mulitplayer. There are a few problems with it, namely every zombie has an sqf that runs it's "logic" that gets spawned on creation. So you're looking at 100s of threads server side, which will basically kill your server's performance. Unless you're going to limit it to 10 zombies a person and max of 100 zombies period on your server, your server will pretty much just tank in performance eventually. He did not write an fsm for the AI logic, which is the way it should have been done. Honestly, in it's current state, I would not recommend using this mod at all. There is a way to shut off his AI script when you spawn them. I'm working on figuring out if I want to use his AI method but run the zombie.sqf client side, or just write an fsm for the zombies instead. The mod graphically is great, and is a great concept, and has great ideas, but it is really poorly implemented.

You can get it working by opening the eden editor > tanoa map, then drop a unit or something, exit, then go to game settings and switch it to recruit difficulty.

I'm at the gym, look at this: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/attachTo

Had another thought, body has simulation disabled?

Interesting, maybe just try executing an attachto from the console and see if it works at all? Maybe it's a locality thing?

Infistar could be preventing the attachto

https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/89234-find-object-name-and-type-script-for-rpt/ You can always run this every once in a while to actually get things identified (note: not tested, just an example): {_objNetId = netId _x; diag_log format["object: %1 netid: %2",typeof _x,_objnetid];} foreach allmissionobjects; From what I've seen a getposatl/setposatl on units could be causing these messages to be logged. Changing to getpos/setpos has been reported to reduce the amount of log spam.

Try parenthesis instead of curly braces for your condition

It's fixed, just get the latest Z&D

I had this problem with WAI on A2 in regards to spawning in the air, you could just put a line in to do a setposatl after unit creation to make sure they hit the ground where you want them. My problem was spawning them in a cave, they would end up on top of the cave map objects instead. Probably something to do with the way the terrain is on the map.

Take the updated mod downloaded from the steam client and put it on the server. (ie copy the folder on your machine to the server)

It appears Ryan released an update to fix the invisible AI last night.

All markers must have unique names. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/createMarker

Already writing a new spawner I looked at the code for it and was like wft lol I think Z&D might also be somewhat problematic

Turn off ExileZ and see if that helps. It is very trigger heavy, which a trigger executes it's check twice every 0.5 seconds. If that fixes the problem, then you know what's the issue.

Mainstream support has ended, it appears it will be completely EOL by 2020. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/search?alpha=Windows%20Server But yeah, being able to call the hoster and actually get someone to talk to and updates etc is pretty important to me, which is why I'm pretty happy with OVH
