GRAD Factions

Internal information for Gruppe Adler members here.

Installation

$3

Highly recommended: >= npm-3.x, which comes with NodeJS 6.x. Don't use older versions!

npm install grad-factions --save

For updating, change the desired version number in your mission's package.json, and do npm install

$3

Alternatively, you can install grad-factions manually. You will then also need grad-loadout.

* download both grad-factions and grad-loadout as zipfiles from github, and put the directories into a node_modules directories, so that you get:

``
myMission.altis/node_modules/grad-factions
myMission.altis/node_modules/grad-loadout
`

Configuration

$3

You may set some of those options. They may or may have no effect, depending on the chosen factions.

`
#define NIGHTVISION // equip night vision goggles
#define GUNLIGHTS // equip gun lights
#define LASERS // equip weapon laser
#define SUPPRESSORS // equip suppressors

`
Below, add this:
`
class Loadouts {
baseDelay = 1; // base delay in seconds before applying loadouts on mission start
handleRadios = 1; // radios are handled by grad-loadout
resetLoadout = 0; // start with empty loadouts instead of modifying existing loadout

class Faction {
#include "node_modules\grad-factions\loadouts.hpp"
};
};

class CfgFunctions {
#include "node_modules\grad-loadout\CfgFunctions.hpp"
};
`

$3

You're nearly done. One last thing you will have to do: define which loadouts should actually be applied:
Somewhere in your init.sqf:

Syntax

`
[faction,loadout] call GRAD_Loadout_fnc_FactionSetLoadout;
`

| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| faction | string - Faction that the following loadout class should be applied to. |
| loadout | string - Loadout classname. See below for available loadouts. |

Example
Here we will give the vanilla NATO units Bundeswehr loadouts, specifically BwFleck and the vanilla FIA units will get the ModerateRebels loadouts.

`
["BLU_F", "BwFleck"] call GRAD_Loadout_fnc_FactionSetLoadout;
["OPF_G_F", "ModerateRebels"] call GRAD_Loadout_fnc_FactionSetLoadout;
`

HINT: If you do not know which faction your editor-created units belong to, have a look into the BI Community Wiki. There is also a table with all faction IDs.

NOTE: Loadouts are not guaranteed to work with units provided by Mods. If you need a specific mod supported, open an issue with grad-loadout.

Available Loadouts

All of the included loadouts need gruppe_adler_mod for its medical items. Most loadouts will also need other mods.
