Enigma Exile RandomSpawns

[happydayz 484]

Just threw this together this evening to see how hard/easy it would be.

Simple little script that overwrites the Exile spawn selection screen, and instead turns it into a randomizer!

Just do a simple override in the CfgExileCustomCode:

    ExileClient_gui_selectSpawnLocation_show = "overrides\ExileClient_gui_selectSpawnLocation_show.sqf"; //Spawn Randomizer

Is this different from Acidy's random spawn selection? Is There an advantage to using this one? 

[happydayz 484]

No idea. Haven't looked at his. This one does an animation? Does his?

[ka0s 450]

Oh nice @happydayz, this is exactly what I've been needing, just haven't been bothered to throw it together myself, kudos for you my friend

His removes the option to choose any spawn except for Random.

Ok we'll mine should look prettier  all automated.

Do you have a video of yours at work?

Also, does your remove the spawn markers from the map? That's something I was looking to do but no one seemed to know how to do it.

[happydayz 484]

No it doesn't. I can have a look at hiding the markers off the map. And I'll make a vid. 

[MarvellousOne 19]

Make one where there's a spawn at base option lol.

That's easy. Create a script. Put it in your mission pbo and call it from init.sqf. Of course it won't work with this script because it automatically searches available spawns and doesn't give you an option to choose that custom spawn, but there'd be a chance it would spawn you there randomly:

if ((getPlayerUID player) in ["1234567890"]) then {  //SomePlayer
	_this = createMarker ["SpawnSomePlayer", [1234.56,7890.12,0]];
	_this setMarkerText "Personal Spawn";
	_this setMarkerType "ExileSpawnZone";	
	_this setMarkerColor "ColorOrange";
};
