Ammo Crates

[Capman]

I'm making a little deathmatch mission and I can't figure out how to put guns and ammo in the ammo crate.

Basically I want lots of ammo, plenty of rocket launchers, machine guns, and sniper rifles.

Thanks for the help.

you mean something like this

Code: [Select]

; ***********************************************************************
; **** Custom crate script for Operation Flashpoint
; **** Generated by Chris's OFP Script Editor
; **** Crate Builder Wizard 2.0
; ****
; **** ORIGINAL FILE NAME: CUSTOM_CRATE.sqs
; **** INSTRUCTIONS: Run script from the INITIALIZATION box of the crate
; **** RUN CODE: [this] Exec "CUSTOM_CRATE.sqs"
; ***********************************************************************

; Get the crate parameter given
_crate = _this Select 0

; Remove the stock items from the crate
ClearMagazineCargo _crate
ClearWeaponCargo _crate

; Add the items to the crate
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["AT4Launcher", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["AT4Launcher", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["CarlGustavLauncher", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["CarlGustavLauncher", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["HuntingRifle", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["HuntingRifleMag", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["LAWLauncher", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["LAWLauncher", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["M21", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["M21", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["M60", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["M60", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["PK", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["PK", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["RPGLauncher", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["RPGLauncher", 250]
_crate AddWeaponCargo ["SVDDragunov", 50]
_crate AddMagazineCargo ["SVDDragunov", 250]

Exit
just copy and paste this and save it as a .sqs file,or if you are too lazy to do so just get the attachment.to run this just put this into the Init line of the ammo box [this] Exec "CUSTOM_CRATE.sqs"/I also recommend you get this program here http://ofpec.com/editors/resource_view.php?id=377

Thanks, that's awesome.

Do I save the .sqs in the missions folder?

[Raptorsaurus]

Yes, save the sqm in the mission folder.

[oyman]

Yes, save the sqm in the mission folder.

dont you mean sqs file

[Raptorsaurus]

Yes, sqs (My fingers type ahead of my brain sometimes)

@oyman;

That is fine, I've done that, but my problem is that when I place some ammo in a crate - lets say for the sake of simplicity...;

  _myCrate addMagazineCargo["Mine", 5]

What happens in my mulitiplayer maps is that EVERYBODY (atleast 2 players - since that is what I've been testing with) can pick up 5 mines EACH.... AAARRRRGHH...  

Any ideas?

hmmm, never experienced that before.  In ANY multiplayer map you make, I would suggest you add a gamelogic named  server  it will solve many problems, perhaps even the one you are experiencing
