Airdrop Extended [Unmaintained]

yeah that would be great also maybe a feature that will check x radius away form a landed air drop and then announce something like "Other players are nearby the airdrop, you need to be quick!" i really love your plugin

 

No too precise ;-) But yeah that would be great to get the possibility to add a message for people who are within a certain radius ( zone ) from the drop that a drop has landed x metres from them.

 

he could just do as he normally do, let server admins define the msg. thats what i love about this plugin

 

Thats a strange thing to do, as all people watch plane coming and where it drops. They know where it drops just by looking into air.
Message with number of players around seems more useful

 

That is true. Except maybe during the night ? and yeah great idea to get the information about how many players are inside the zone of a drop... They can then pay attention when moving towards it.

 

i would use both of you added them to the plugin. sometimes you are at a area where you might not be able to see the airdrop

 

It is true that you can see the air drop falling from the sky but if it is behind a big mountain compared to your position, you fastly loose visual contact. and if there a lot of trees in the area... good luck. ( I put 15 minutes to stay on the ground to find it ) instead of 30 minutes. I will see what is better. But for me those kinds of options must be approved by admins and not implemented automatically ;-) true / false ^^

 

Yeah, I'll make them customizable

 

Just because I don't know how it could work... I would not like to see something like : you are at 1000m from the drop... and then when moving I see 900m 800m.... 300m...

I would prefer to get only one message saying : the drop is less than 1km from your position or something like that... but you still have to walk, to search, and to find. ( otherwise you just have to run towards the good direction... when you see the distance decreasing ... )

And for the people in the zone. Would it be calculated with the drop on the ground ? Or even when falling ? ( as it is vertical ? )

I try to imagine how it could be in the game...

 

I wont add pathfinding thing for this, its too performance heavy. For now it will be just shortest distance (line) from player point to a drop. Same with other players.

 

yeah only one msg not more. i would and my players would use it. we are lazy so if a airdrop is to far away, then we woud know it

 

Ah oki so the drop falls, gets on the ground and when on the ground each player receives a message saying : you are x metres away from the airdrop ?
And for players the same ?

drop on the ground : message : there are x players in the zone of the drop ? or something more precise than that ? curious to understand how it could work ^^

 

yeah

yeah, thats what a imagened in my head. i dont know if thats what baton256 will make tho

 

as enabled chat notifications because when I throw a supply leaves nothing in chat.

It took no position to have another plugin that funicionen notifications?

 

Simply do as the Running Man through the /air and distance will be written to AIR.
Although this information is superfluous!

 

Can you tell me again what to do in order to allow the plane to drop when there are at least 2 people on the server ? and that it is saved forever ?

Because I got the message : (20:14:46) | [Oxide] 7:14 PM [Info] aire:Cargo Plane has been removed, due to insufficient player count: 3.

I suppose I can set it up to allow a drop when there are 2 people at least connected ? Thx.

 

MinimumPlayerCount = 2 Line 1733
or data file
"MinimumPlayerCount": 2,

 

This is the command to set the minimum of players

• aire.players <min_players> - set min player count for timed airdrop.

 

Yeah I did it with 2 at the beginning of the afternoon but it seems not to save that ?

 

Just set it to 1-2 players using

and type

Code:

aire.save

just to be sure that everything is saved to config file. There still might be saving issues.

I wanted to fix that soon, but now I'm nearly done with cargo plane count restriction. Don't wanna merge few branches later
