• Custom disarm bomb action, with chance to fail based on not having toolbox/entrench tool
• AntiWall feature that doesnt allow players to exit out of vehicles into player made bases.
• Custom buildable removal function with chance to lose toolbox
• Detailed parameters allowing server owners to dictate where things can be built, if they are invincible, etc etc.
• Integrated into DayZ code
• Server restart compatible

  Known issues:

- Buildables seem to shift on Taviana after server restart (normally its only 1 meter and happens only once)
- Camonets currently cannot be removed by owner or code, only default remove action
- WAIT FOR HOST: Look at new description_code.txt in dayz_1.world folder. It explains a fix for this.

###Important for people experiencing broken codes!

• If CODE for Keypanels/Removing Objects were once working consistently but no longer work, you MUST go inside your database tool (workbench for me) under instance_deployables table, filter the "Code" for that object/panel and find it in table, then manually delete it! If its not filtering, remove some numbers slowly until you get closest match and verify that its the object!
  
  

RECOMMENDED TO GET STARTED

• Notepad++
  
• Notepad++ Compare Plugin
  
• Arma 2 SQF Syntax Highlights for Notepad++ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
  

REQUIRED BEFORE INSTALLATION TUTORIAL

• PBO View (or equivalent pbo tool) -- http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=1434
  
• YOUR servers dayz_1.YOURWORLD.pbo mission file
  
• YOUR servers dayz_server.pbo hive server file
  

Installation Tutorial

If you know how to unpbo and pbo your mission/server files, skip past step 6

1. Open PBO View
   
2. Click Unpack at top (or Ctrl + U)
   
3. Browse harddrive for YOUR dayz_1.YOURWORLD.pbo mission file, select it and click open
   
4. Do this for YOUR dayz_server.pbo file too.
   
5. Now youll have YOUR server file and YOURWORLD mission file unpbo'd
   

##Part 1 - The Basics:

• Download the master branch from https://github.com/Daimyo21/BaseBuilding-DayZ/archive/master.zip
  

• Extract to folder of your choice.
  

• Once downloaded, you'll notice 2 folders, dayz_1.world and dayz_server
  

• dayz_1.world is a generic mission file that can be used with any DayZ map
  

• dayz_server is a generic bliss server file (last release before Reality), only including the files modified to get Base Building to work when the server restarts.
  Should transfer over to Reality Server Build easily.
  If your using other server files like Pwnzor, it shouldnt be hard to implement if you know the server files well
  

I will not provide support for any other server build other than Bliss/Reality

##Part 2 - dayz_1.world folder:

Lets do the easy stuff first.
Assuming you have YOUR MISSION folder open as well as dayz_1.world mission folder opened

• Simply Drag and Drop these files over FROM dayz_1.world TO YOUR dayz_1.YOURWORLD folders main directory:
  

  -buildRecipeBook folder
  -dayz_code folder
  -build_recipe_dialog.hpp
  -build_recipe_list_dialog.hpp
  -defines.hpp
  

###Modifying your description.ext:

• Follow the instructions in the description_code.txt file in dayz_1.world
  
• An EXAMPLE description.ext is included to show you how the added code should look
  

###Modifying your init.sqf:

• Follow the instructions in the init_code.txt file in dayz_1.world
  
• An EXAMPLE init.sqf is included to show you how the added code should look
  

###dayz_code folder:

• Goto "dayz_code\compile\" folder directory in YOUR dayz_1.YOURWORLD mission folder (that we dragged in earlier)
  

• Pay attention to ONLY these files:

  -fn_selfActions 1.7.4.4 with Base Building 1.2
  -fn_selfActions 1.7.6.1 Default as of 3-15-2013 no BB
  -fn_selfActions 1.7.6.1 with Base Building 1.2
  -player_build - with ActiveCombat 1.1 compatibility
  -player_build
  

###For people who DO NOT have a modified fn_selfActions.sqf:
If you DO NOT have a modified fn_selfActions.sqf and are running 1.7.6.1

• Simply rename "fn_selfActions 1.7.6.1 with Base Building 1.2" to fn_selfActions.sqf

• Then delete:

  -fn_selfActions 1.7.4.4 with Base Building 1.2
  -fn_selfActions 1.7.6.1 Default as of 3-15-2013 no BB
  

(do this for whatever version you are running, if your running neither versions shown, Reference off the README.txt in the compile folder
###People WITH Modified fn_selfActions.sqf:

• Please reference the README.txt in the compile folder to understand the blocks of code placed in fn_selfActions.sqf

###People NOT running my ActiveCombat 1.1:

• Delete "player_build - with ActiveCombat 1.1 compatibility" and KEEP player_build

###People who are running my ActiveCombat 1.1:

• Delete player_build.sqf and rename "player_build - with ActiveCombat 1.1 compatibility" to player_build
  
  

Part 3 - dayz_server (Modified Default Bliss) folder

For People Running Reality Server Build for 1.7.6.1:

In YOUR **"dayz\_server\init\server\_functions.sqf"**
Find this function: >**check\_publishobject = {
"bunch of code inside"
};**

And Change this line:

if ((typeOf _object) in _allowedObjects) then {

to:

if ((typeOf _object) in _allowedObjects || (typeOf _object) in allbuildables_class) then {

This will insure that your buildables will write to database.

• First, go into YOUR server_publishObject.sqf Found in "dayz_server\compile" and change this:

if (!(_object isKindOf "Building")) exitWith {
deleteVehicle _object;
};

TO:

//if (!(_object isKindOf "Building")) exitWith {
//deleteVehicle _object;
//};

###Also for Reality Build users on 1.7.6.1 or objects not removing from Database after restart:

In "dayz_1.world\dayz_code\actions\player_remove.sqf"

Change this:

if (isServer) then { dayzDeleteObj call local_deleteObj; };

to this:

if (isServer) then { dayzDeleteObj call server_deleteObj; };

Continue below.

• Now open the "dayz_server (Modified Default Bliss)\README.txt"
• The README goes over 3 Sections.

-Section 1 is mandatory if you want your buildables to be placed properly after server restart.

• Open YOUR dayz_server folder\system\server_monitor.sqf"
• Follow instructions for Section 1 to setup the server_monitor.sqf

-Section 2 is REQUIRED if you did Section 1

• Open YOUR dayz_server folder\init\server_functions.sqf"
• Follow instructions for Section 2 to setup the server_functions.sqf

-Section 3 is optional but recommended for server who want their bases to update in a 300 meter radius of KeyPad Panels

• Copy the "dayz_server (Modified Default Bliss)\compile\server_updateNearbyObjects.sqf"
• Paste and Overwrite YOUR servers dayz_server\compile\server_updateNearbyObjects.sqf"
• Open YOUR dayz_server folder\compile\server_updateObject.sqf"
• Follow instructions for Section 3 to setup the server_updateObject.sqf

-Use PBO View to pbo your dayz_1.YOURWORLD folder and your dayz_server folder

##Battleye Filters:

Can be found in the battleye folder. Not 100% sure if that is all the filters, please report any kicks that you do not know how to resolve or simply change to log only!

Line 20 - 23 in scripts.txt add:

!"_detonate = \"grenade\" createVehicle _pos;"

Ill update as long as people message me with kicks due to base building ##Database:

BaseBuilding_Deployables.sql can be found in:

"BaseBuilding-DayZ\basebuilding\database"

• In MYSQL Workbench (or whatever you use to manage DB):
• Set your default schema (the database you want to execute scripts on)
• Make sure you backup and delete your current deployable list. (also keep track of your current primary key IDs for your deployables as MINE may be different.)
• Go to:
  File >> Open SQL scripts >> and find/open BaseBuilding_Deployables.sql

Execute the script.

###Enjoy Building your new base!

##Modifying Buildable Parameters## ###build_list.sqf:

• Found in: "dayz_1.world\dayz_code\external\dy_work\build_list.sqf"

This is the file used to modify parameters such as:

• Recipe requirements
• _toolBox required?
• _eTool required?
• _medWait, _longWait (how long to build, if neither, then _smallWait)
• _inBuilding allowed?
• _roadAllowed ?
• _inTown ?
• _removable (can it be removed by default removal?)
• _isStructure (is the buildable a structure?
• _isSimulated (does it have physics?)
• _isDestructable (can it be destroyed?)

Alternatively, if you modify any of these parameters, they are ONLY client side. In order to make sure these parameters stay persistent on server restart, you must modify the:

build_baseBuilding_arrays = { BUNCH OF CODE SIMILAR TO BUILD_LIST.sqf };

Found in the "dayz_server (Modified Default Bliss)\init\server_functions.sqf" that we installed earlier

You can simply copy and paste the:

_buildlist = [ ENTIRE ARRAY WITH PARAMETERS YOU CHANGED ];

from "dayz_1.world\dayz_code\external\dy_work\build_list.sqf"

Into the server_functions.sqf's _buildlist = [ SERVER BUILD LIST ARRAY ];

Detailed information can be found inside the build_list.sqf itself on how to modify these parameter arrays!

Other Scripts

####player_bomb.sqf found in dayz_1.world\dayz_code\external\dy_work\player_bomb.sqf

Controls functionality of player placed bombs, modify at your own risk!

####anti_discWall.sqf Anti measure for player exploits into walls ####antiWall.sqf When player gets out of vehicle, it teleports him into the vehicle he was getting out of to counter he/she glitching through walls.

####dialog_menus by W4rGo I recommend not modifying this and you must have permission from W4rGo to do so.
