Using the UCAV Sentinel drone from the new DLC on your server

65 posts in this topic

After adding the UCAV Sentinel, I realized that it's a NATO bird and that (Independant/Guer) players would not be able to use it. So, I added the UAVHacker trait to the players so that the sentinel could be hacked with the UAV Terminal.

Here's what to do:

NOTE 1: I'm not going to explain how to setup overwrites in this post. There's plenty of info in the forums on how to do that.

NOTE 2: If you run infiSTAR, your BadActionCheck and/or BadActionContentCheck setting(s) in the EXILE_AHAT_CONFIG.hpp might cause players to get kicked/banned. You will either need to set both to false or add "Hack UAV" to the allowed actions.

Setup overwrites for ExileServer_object_player_database_load.sqf and ExileServer_object_player_createBambi.sqf if you haven't already done so for another feature/function/addon.
If you already have overwrites for these files, just edit those files.
 

ExileServer_object_player_database_load.sqf

After this line:
_player setVariable ["ExileXM8IsOnline", false, true];

Add this line:
_player setUnitTrait ["UAVHacker" ,true];


ExileServer_object_player_createBambi.sqf

After this line:
_bambiPlayer setVariable ["ExileLocker", (_accountData select 4), true];

Add this line:
_bambiPlayer setUnitTrait ["UAVHacker" ,true];

looks legit, this should make it work with non-AAF drones from Apex as well. Will test tomorrow, thank you for sharing!

You know, I was so busy with other stuff that I didn't even think about any other non-AAF UAVs/Drones. Thanks to you for kicking me in the backside. LOL

I've not had that issue on my server. What are the exact circumstances of the infiSTAR ban?

no logs it just goes straight though to bans.txt
