Using the UCAV Sentinel drone from the new DLC on your server

[Kurewe 133]

After adding the UCAV Sentinel, I realized that it's a NATO bird and that (Independant/Guer) players would not be able to use it. So, I added the UAVHacker trait to the players so that the sentinel could be hacked with the UAV Terminal.

Here's what to do:

NOTE 1: I'm not going to explain how to setup overwrites in this post. There's plenty of info in the forums on how to do that.

NOTE 2: If you run infiSTAR, your BadActionCheck and/or BadActionContentCheck setting(s) in the EXILE_AHAT_CONFIG.hpp might cause players to get kicked/banned. You will either need to set both to false or add "Hack UAV" to the allowed actions.

Setup overwrites for ExileServer_object_player_database_load.sqf and ExileServer_object_player_createBambi.sqf if you haven't already done so for another feature/function/addon.
If you already have overwrites for these files, just edit those files.
 

ExileServer_object_player_database_load.sqf

After this line:
_player setVariable ["ExileXM8IsOnline", false, true];

Add this line:
_player setUnitTrait ["UAVHacker" ,true];

ExileServer_object_player_createBambi.sqf

After this line:
_bambiPlayer setVariable ["ExileLocker", (_accountData select 4), true];

Add this line:
_bambiPlayer setUnitTrait ["UAVHacker" ,true];

looks legit, this should make it work with non-AAF drones from Apex as well. Will test tomorrow, thank you for sharing!

You know, I was so busy with other stuff that I didn't even think about any other non-AAF UAVs/Drones. Thanks to you for kicking me in the backside. LOL

the problem is infistar is banning players though battleye, so there is a setting on infistar but im not sure which to change for this.

any ideas

[Kurewe 133]

I've not had that issue on my server. What are the exact circumstances of the infiSTAR ban?
