Modifying player spawn points (0.53 spawns)

[Quackster]

Hi guys,

This tutorial will help you change your player spawn points when they connect to the server and will remove the old 0.45 spawns.

Step 1)

Open init.sqf and find this line of code

DZ_spawnpointsfile = "spawnpoints_players.bin";

Add this after it (current 0.53 spawn points)

DZ_positions = [

  ];

Step 2)

Find this line

    _pos = findCachedSpawnPoint [ DZ_spawnpointsfile, DZ_spawnpass3params ];

Change it to

    _spawnPos = DZ_positions select (floor (random (count DZ_positions)));
    _pos = [_spawnPos select 0, _spawnPos select 1, _spawnPos select 2];

Congrats, you now will spawn in Chernogorsk, Elektro, etc!

Please reply back for saying if I helped, etc! :

Nice tutorial mate!

 

[Quackster]

I noticed an error in my code, it should be

    _pos = [_spawnPos select 0, _spawnPos select 1, _spawnPos select 2];

instead of

    _pos = [_spawnPos select 0, spawnPos select 1, spawnPos select 2];

Updated main post

Nice tutorial mate!

Thanks!

You're welcome! :

Do you run a server? (I managed to get my server running on Debian using WINE)

Thanks

hi man...thank you for your release!

It's possibile to specify a respawn point for only 1 UID?

+ It's possibile to specify a respawn point for only 1 UID?

 

[cata123]

yes, i think : _pos [x, y, z];
