[Tut] Move some air drop config to MasterServer.cfg

[Duong Phan]

Default item drop:

sobj_DroppedItem.cpp

Look for:

int obj_DroppedItem::GetItemDefault(int i)

Change all function to:

int obj_DroppedItem::GetItemDefault(int i)
{
static const char* configFile = "MasterServer.cfg";
const char* group      = "AirDrop";
int AirItem1 = r3dReadCFG_I(configFile, group, "AirItem1", 301128);
int AirItem2 = r3dReadCFG_I(configFile, group, "AirItem2", 301128);
int AirItem3 = r3dReadCFG_I(configFile, group, "AirItem3", 301128);
int AirItem4 = r3dReadCFG_I(configFile, group, "AirItem4", 301128);
int AirItem5 = r3dReadCFG_I(configFile, group, "AirItem5", 301128);

	switch(i)
	{
	case 0:	
			return AirItem1;
	case 1:
			return AirItem2;
	case 2:
			return AirItem3;
	case 3:	
			return AirItem4;
	case 4:	
			return AirItem5;
	}
	return 0;
}

Air drop time:
ServerGameLogic.cpp
Search:

static const char* configFile = "MasterServer.cfg";

Delete:

RESPAWN_TIME_AIRDROP = 4.0f * 60.0f * 60.0f); // 4 hours

Add:

const char* group      = "AirDrop";
const float RESPAWN_TIME_AIRDROP = r3dReadCFG_F(configFile, group, "AirDropTime", 43000.0f); // 12 hours

MasterServer.cfg

Add:

[AirDrop]
AirDropTime = 43000.0f //12 hours
AirItem1 = 301997
AirItem2 = 301997
AirItem3 = 301997
AirItem4 = 301998
AirItem5 = 301998
AirlootBox =  301128

you forgot change

[AirDrop]
AirDropTime = 43000.0f //12 hours
AirItem1 = 301997
AirItem2 = 301997
AirItem3 = 301997
AirItem4 = 301998
AirItem5 = 301998
AirlootBox = 301128

const char* group = "AirDrop";
const float RESPAWN_TIME_AIRDROP = r3dReadCFG_F(configFile, group, "AirDropTime", 30197); // 12 hours

time is ordered per second

43000 = 12 hours
5000 = 1 hour
15000 = 4 hours (default time in source)

Thank you :)

EXTRA!

43000 = 12 hours
5000 = 1 hour
15000 = 4 hours (default time in source)

Thank you :)

That's just default value, if you change that you need to declare AirDropTime or you'll get error when compile, no need to change that.

[AirDrop]
AirDropTime = 43000.0f //12 hours
AirItem1 = 301997
AirItem2 = 301997
AirItem3 = 301997
AirItem4 = 301998
AirItem5 = 301998
AirlootBox =  301128

What does the red word means?

I see btw nice relase!

hmm if i read that all right his way enables you do change the airdrop timer where as your way the time set to every 12 hours in the source so wouldnt it be better to just define it then your able to change timer via cfg rather than have to recompile it?

Sweet release! but how about put LootBox (random wood boxes) in the airdrop I tried but I get error when the items is spawning ('Spawned item is not model')

Just change the default value in xml to 0 and set last id to your lootbox, but it'll only drop 1 item, if you need 5 or more, you need edit in sobj_DroppedItem.cpp

I did, and like i said, that's default value, mean when you missing AirDropTime in your cfg it'll take 43000.0f in your source

but what value in itemdb do you mean?

[samwite]

how to random Item to drop ?

how to random Item to drop ?

You can't. The Airdrop config reads the item ID's, you would need to create a system where it randomly generates a valid ItemID.

[Bombillo]

how to random Item to drop ?

you can do something like this or make a function to connect with the SQL to getrandom items
