Hello all,
My first release for you guys to get your fingers on!
Okay, lets get to business:
What it does:
This script is simple, and yet effective - It simply modifies the gear's title to display how much gear is inside the tent/vehicle/etc and how much it can take - no more will you lose a weapon or that tiny morphine injector when overfilling your tent!
Requirements
Difficulty: Easy <10 Minutes
Apps: Notepad ++, cpbo
Step One
Firstly, create a folder called axs_gearmanagement inside your mission folder (where init.sqf lives) and insert the following code into a file called doGear.sqf:
(thanks cyrq for the backpack update!)
Step Two
Now open your init.sqf (root of mission folder), find the following:
Inside this IF statement at the bottom before the closing brace, insert the following:
For example, my if statement looks like this
(please use as reference only to where the snippet above should go - do NOT copy and paste this over your if statement!)
Help, I use R3F Realism and they do not work together well!
Find and open the following file: R3F_DoWeight.sqf
Between
And
Insert
I hope this little script is useful to you and your players!

Step One
Firstly, create a folder called axs_gearmanagement inside your mission folder (where init.sqf lives) and insert the following code into a file called doGear.sqf:
Code:
private [ "_lookingat", "_type", "_maxGuns", "_maxMags", "_maxBags", "_cntGuns", "_cntMags", "_cntBags", "_fndDisplay", "_fndDisplay_Visible", "_dispEnum", "_dispControl", "_dispControlInitText", "_distance", "_typeName" ];

while {true} do

if ( _fndDisplay_Visible ) then {
if ( !isNull cursorTarget ) then {
if ( isNull _lookingat ) then {
_lookingat = cursorTarget;
};
_type = typeOf _lookingat;
_distance = ((getPos _lookingat) distance (getPos player));
if ( _distance < 10.5 ) then {
_maxGuns = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportMaxWeapons");
_maxMags = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportMaxMagazines");
_maxBags = getNumber(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "transportmaxbackpacks");
if ( (_maxGuns + _maxMags + _maxBags) > 0 ) then {
_typeName = getText(configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _type >> "displayName");
_cntGuns = 0;
_cntMags = 0;
_cntBags = 0;
{
_cntGuns = _cntGuns + _x;
} foreach ( (getWeaponCargo _lookingat) select 1 );
{
_cntMags = _cntMags + _x;
} foreach ( (getMagazineCargo _lookingat) select 1 );
{
_cntBags = _cntBags + _x;
} foreach ( (getBackpackCargo _lookingat) select 1 );
_dispControl = _fndDisplay displayCtrl 1001; //156 is the title of the object (eg "old camping tent"), however it flashes every half a second or so - makes it unusable... 1001 is the title of the dialog.
if ( _dispControlInitText == "" ) then {
_dispControlInitText = ctrlText _dispControl;
};
_dispControl ctrlSetText format [ "%8 (%2/%3 %4/%5 %6/%7)", _dispControlInitText, _cntGuns, _maxGuns, _cntMags, _maxMags, _cntBags, _maxBags, _typeName];
};
};
};
} else {
_lookingat = objNull;
_dispControlInitText = "";
};
};Step Two
Now open your init.sqf (root of mission folder), find the following:
Code:
if (!isDedicated) then {Inside this IF statement at the bottom before the closing brace, insert the following:
Code:
[] ExecVM "axs_gearmanagement\doGear.sqf";For example, my if statement looks like this
(please use as reference only to where the snippet above should go - do NOT copy and paste this over your if statement!)
Code:
if (!isDedicated) then {
//Conduct map operations
0 fadeSound 0;
waitUntil {!isNil "dayz_loadScreenMsg"};
dayz_loadScreenMsg = (localize "STR_AUTHENTICATING");
//Run the player monitor

_playerMonitor = [] execVM "fixes\player_monitor.sqf";
_logistic = execVM "=BTC=_Logistic\=BTC=_Logistic_Init.sqf"; //Helicopter lift script
_void = [] execVM "R3F_Realism\R3F_Realism_Init.sqf"; //Initialise weight counter
serverCommand = {

[] ExecVM "axs_gearmanagement\doGear.sqf";
};Help, I use R3F Realism and they do not work together well!
