v0.41 (Bug Squashin')

---

• Repaired "Bodycount" trigger to function properly, now Convoy and TownInvasion missions complete properly
• Modified Convoy to spawn in Cities or Capitols as opposed to randomly, which ended up leaving trucks in the middle of forests on small or dense maps
• Modified convoy to use Cities as waypoints instead of villages which are often in densely forested areas
• Updated all mission themes to make them easier to read and customize
• Added announcements to missions spawned on players to give hints of trouble. (Might spawn on all players???)
• Corrected spawn points of Roadblock_pato theme so AI doesn’t get stuck
• Minor adjustments to several default themes
• Disabled zombie missions on default load (still supported, but not ON by default)
• Changed out road patrol vehicle to Exile Off-road ( not everyone uses UGVs but easy to add)
• Removed specific weapons and rounds from some missions, trying to use FuMS groups for all missions

v0.4 (The ReLaunch)

---

NOTE TO ADMINS: Some changes to the Themes was neccesary to utilize the Exile Toast system. Previously the mission annoucement had three lines, but the new system only has two, a title and a message body. This is the only change needed to update your missions to display properly using Exile Toasts. Please see updated Themes in the download to see what changes you need to make.

---

• Added Exile Toasts and replaced current FuMS_Global Message system (code will be deprecated in next version and removed)
• Updated AI difficulty engine to include setting the "general" setting which seemed to be preventing AI from doing anything at times
• Updated AI difficulty settings to "MODERATE" level simliar to other AI systems (will be variable int the future)
• Added poptabs to mission crates (Preset values of 500 + up to 1000 more per create, will be customizable in the future)
• Added poptabs to soldiers (Preset value of up to 500 poptabs per soldier, will be customizable in the future)
• Added Tanoa based versions of base locations for Roadblock Pato (Currently supports Altis and Tanoa)

v0.3a (bug fixes and tweaks)

---

NOTE TO ADMINS: Save your \FuMS\Themes folder! Unless specifically indicated after updating to any newer version of FUMS you will be able to copy over the \FuMS\Themes folder with your current folder. This should prevent any rework on your part and permit you to immediately use any new functionality added while keeping your server configured as it was prior to the update.

---

• changed zombie missions the the 'Zombies' theme to not require bombs. Missions now complete when all zombies are dead. towns infected will 'repopulate' 1 hour after the town is cleared of zombies.

• coded added to force zombies to die if they attack a player within 150m of a safe zone.

• verified code to prevent zombies from damaging players when within 200m of a safe zone. No code changes made. If players still experiencing death by zombie in safe zones, they are lying to you :) or some other mod is being used for your safe zones. (or I still have not found the bug?)

• corrected bug in Playerwatch that was using spawn zone locations for 'safezone' position logic. Safe zones are now properly identified by PlayerWatch.

• changed failure condition of captive missions from a 'timeout' to 'lowcaptive' count of zero. Captive missions will now remain active until either completed, or no captives remain alive.

• added "CAPTIVE" as an option to LowUnitCount and HighUnitCount triggers.

v0.3 -fixed typo in @FuMS config.cpp -removed legacy startup code for FuMS on server Thank you Terd Fergasen -fixed 'multiple building' bug in the Zombies theme. -fixed a bug with the server FPS monitor was not properly capturing server FPS -tweaked Heartbeat values to reduce excessive server logging of non-HC error conditions -added code to prevent zombies from doing damage witin 200m of exile designated trader zones. -fixed 'safe mission position spawn' code to recognize Exile Territories (only when players are near them). This should prevent a mission from randomly spawning on top of a player's base while he is at the base.

• fixed a bug with the ProxPlayer trigger that was causing some missions to not behave correctly (specifically zombie missions ending)

• Roadblock theme Based upon the concept and building layout of Pato!

1. Specific to ALTIS
2. Can be modified to other maps or other locations in altis by changing the mission spawn locations in ThemeData.sqf
3. See "RoadBlock" loot in GlobalLootData.sqf for customization of loot left by the occupying soldiers.

• Player Watch New Theme process model called 'player watch'. This monitors a player's location and based upon configurable options from the admin will launch missions. Config file \FuMS\Themes\PlayerWatch\PlayerWatchConfig.sqf

Player watch performs a check every few minutes (configurable). If the check passes, information about the players location is gathered and a mission is spawned near the player. See PlayerWatchConfig.sqf for what mission will be launched.

List of locations and default mission type: In trader zone - NONE In own territory - small band of friendly armed civilians In another territory - helo drop of 1-3 AI In air vehicle - armed helo In vehicle on land - armed Unmanned Vehicle In vehicle in water - armed attack boat In water - 3 man hostile dive squad In spawn zone - zombies In a town - squad of AI w/ a UAV near a road - zombies default (wilderness) - 2 squads of AI fighting each other

See Docs folder and comments in PlayerWatchConfig.sqf file to customize!

v0.2a

• corrected code to properly monitor server FPS is above the specified threshold before spawning a new mission.

• corrected mission configuration error with Zombie theme that was spawning multiple structures and excessive zombies.

  Sorry guys...but I did say happy halloween ;) Trick or Treat!

v0.2 Ryan's Zombies and Demons Support! Happy Halloween!!!

ADMIN NOTE: ENSURE mpmission.pbo HC folder is updated with this distro, not just the @FuMS folder!

• AI vehicles will maintain fuel level as long as original driver is alive.
• Old Mod dependency: Fixed AI cleanup Fixed ProxPlayer trigger

• Ryan Zombie and Demons support:

1. Install it per the mod's instructions
2. Players WILL need to install/use this mod also, but trust me, its worth it.
3. Zombie Theme Background: Out of the list of Villages, Cities, and Captials of the land, Nine are infected by an evil presense. It is up to the Exiled to located the source of this presense and destroy it before the area becomes totally overrun!

What to expect: Civilian zombies = not too smart, but quick on their feet Soldier zombies = a little stronger, able to move vehicles around, and perform other feats of strength. Spider zombies = acute senses, hard to lose once they have you trail. Able to leap most obsticles in pursuit of their prey. Rumored to be able to take down low flying helocopers when attacking in mass. Zombie Boss = zombie on steroids, best bet, Run!

Smoking obelisk in the center of town is guarded by a Horde. Use the explosives that are nearby to destroy the obelisk, stop the infection and claim your reward!

Note: For initial install, the infected towns are indicated on the map. Change the 'Show encounter' setting in the Zombies\SpawnTrigger.sqf mission to 'false' for your production servers if you do not want your players knowing where the infected are hiding.

1. syntax: ["ZOMBIE", [spawnloc], [actionloc],[Detection_range, FlagCanThrow, WonderRange]]
2. -spawnloc: offset or specific map location group will spawn
3. -actionloc: --no functionality-- leave as [0,0]
4. -options a. Detection_range = distance in meters beyond which zombies will not identify/engage AI and players. 1. Zombies have an accute sense of vehicles and will detect players in vehicles if they come within this range regardless of Line of sight. b. FlagCanThrow: true = zombies have a chance to move vehicles out of their way when pursing players. c. Wonder_range = distance a target must get away from the zombie to lose it. 1. Players can lose the zombie in a range shorter than this, but it depends on their ability to block LOS/detection of the zombie to cause it to forget about the player(zombie types have different memories!)
5. Behavior: Full implementation of Ryan's Zombie and Demons AI. a. Zombies will wonder around until they locate a player or non-side "WEST" AI. b. Zombies will pursue until dead or distracted by a closer target, or player can 'shake' them. c. Zombies will attack cars, boats, helicopters, and static weapons when they are occupied by players/AI. d. Zombies will not attack unoccupied vehicles, but will throw them! e. It is rumored that spiderzombies will attack flying helo's and are even able to board them in search of their prey!
6. Type Zombies: a. Zombie Jump 0%/10m ThrowCar 0% Memory 2sec b. ZombieSoldier Jump 5%/20m ThrowCar 60% Memory 4sec c. ZombieSpider Jump 50%/40m ThrowCar 5% Memory 8sec d. ZombieBoss Jump 80%/35m ThrowCar 80% Memory 12sec

****Jurassic Raptor Addon Support ************** http://makearmanotwar.com/entry/ec2EDrOCkM#.VT0zFfnF9EK

1. Download the addon.

2. Place the '@Jurassic Arma - Raptor Pack' folder in the base folder of your server. At the same folder level as the @Exile folder.

3. Place this folder in the same location on your HC, IF your HC does not share the same source folder as your server.

4. add @Jurrasic Arma - Raptor Pack to the -mod option of your server command line

5. add this to the -mod option for your HC.

6. add this to the -mod option for your client.

7. Ensure your players download the mod, and add the proper @Jurassic.... to their start parameters.

8. Enable the "Jurassic" theme in BaseServer.sqf.

9. Learn to generate a bi-key for the mod and add it.

   OR

   edit your config.cfg file and set 'verifySignatures = 0;'

10. repack and play!

Note: Raptors use the same AI patrol logics as regular FuMS soldiers, so BoxPatrol, building searching, PatrolRoute, etc logics will all work with the "RaptorM", and "RaptorF" AI types.

Note: Feel free to add Raptors to your own encounters!, see the Jurassic theme for examples.
