Manually placing hideouts in Eden ?

[Manthhys]

Hi there, did anyone play around to see if it is possible to manually design hideouts for exemple in buildings or occupied FOBs in H&M ?

I'd like to know if I could manually place an item that represent the hideout that generates the ennemy garrison and must be destroyed by the players ? For example by using the actual variable name used for the item we have to destroy in H&M vanilla.

Hello,

It is not easy, you need to make sure this https://github.com/Vdauphin/HeartsAndMinds/blob/master/%3DBTC%3Dco%4030_Hearts_and_Minds.Altis/core/fnc/mil/create_hideout.sqf#L44-L74 detect your objects

Hey ! Havent had the time yet to get elbow-deep into the code, I'll post here if I get something working ;)

I had'nt find it yet too. I do not understand what the code have to find inside the Eden. I know the code search a safe place to put the hideout. But If I place them inside Eden. What should I place ?

[Manthhys]

From what I got, the hideout generator finds cities and generate hideouts around them, so my guess is one should modifiy the code to detect your eden object as a point to spawn hideouts.

Like the red flag for example.
If I put a red flag the mission knows it has to put the hideout here.

Hello,

You may want to take a look to this #1529
After btc_hideout_cityID defined, you will be allow to slightly move hideout around the city you choose with Zeus

Don't move the hideout away from the city otherwise the city will be out of range of the hideout and nothing will spawn inside the city
