Modules

Introduction

This page can be considered a hub when it comes to modules. Here you'll find everything you need to know when it comes to creating modules, available modules in Arma 3 and existing module documentation.

General Information

• Modules are executed before initServer.sqf, initPlayerLocal.sqf and initPlayerServer.sqf (See Initialization Order)
• Modules are very easy to set up, even for unexperienced users
• They can easily be used to create mission templates

Creating a Module

Arma 3 introduces a module framework which aims to simplify the configuration of modules and the way their functions are executed (Globally,JIP)

1. Create a Module Addon

• Make a folder named myTag_addonName a create a config.cpp file in it.
• Inside, declare a CfgPatches class with your addon and its modules (in the units array). Without this, the game wouldn't recognize the addon.
• Make sure the addon and all objects start with your tag, e.g. myTag

Example

class CfgPatches
{
	class myTag_addonName
	{
		units[] = {"myTag_ModuleNuke"};
		requiredVersion = 1.0;
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Modules_F"};
	};
};

2. Module Category

• Modules are placed into basic categories which makes finding a desired module easier for an user. Use can use on of the existing categories (See table to the right) or create your own category (See example below)

class	displayName
Effects	Effects
Events	Events
Modes	Gameplay Modes
GroupModifiers	Group Modifiers
Intel	Intel
NO_CATEGORY	Misc
Multiplayer	Multiplayer
ObjectModifiers	Object Modifiers
Sites	Sites
StrategicMap	Strategic
Supports	Supports

Example

class CfgFactionClasses
{
	class NO_CATEGORY;
	class myTag_explosions: NO_CATEGORY
	{
		displayName = "Explosions";
	};
};

3. Creating the Module Config

• All in-game objects (soldiers, vehicles, buildings, logics, modules, ...) are defined in CfgVehicles class.
• All modules must inherit from Module_F parent class, either directly or through some additional sub-parent.
• Modules functions are by default not executed when in Eden Editor workspace. It can be enabled using is3DEN property, but that will also change format of function params.

Example
Show text

class CfgVehicles
{
	class Logic;
	class Module_F: Logic
	{
		class AttributesBase
		{
			class Default;
			class Edit; // Default edit box (i.e., text input field)
			class Combo; // Default combo box (i.e., drop-down menu)
			class Checkbox; // Default checkbox (returned value is Bool)
			class CheckboxNumber; // Default checkbox (returned value is Number)
			class ModuleDescription; // Module description
			class Units; // Selection of units on which the module is applied
		};
		// Description base classes, for more information see below
		class ModuleDescription
		{
			class AnyBrain;
		};
	};
	class myTag_ModuleNuke: Module_F
	{
		// Standard object definitions
		scope = 2; // Editor visibility; 2 will show it in the menu, 1 will hide it.
		displayName = "Nuclear Explosion"; // Name displayed in the menu
		icon = "\myTag_addonName\data\iconNuke_ca.paa"; // Map icon. Delete this entry to use the default icon
		category = "Effects";

		// Name of function triggered once conditions are met
		function = "myTag_fnc_moduleNuke";
		// Execution priority, modules with lower number are executed first. 0 is used when the attribute is undefined
		functionPriority = 1;
		// 0 for server only execution, 1 for global execution, 2 for persistent global execution
		isGlobal = 1;
		// 1 for module waiting until all synced triggers are activated
		isTriggerActivated = 1;
		// 1 if modules is to be disabled once it's activated (i.e., repeated trigger activation won't work)
		isDisposable = 1;
		// // 1 to run init function in Eden Editor as well
		is3DEN = 1;

		// Menu displayed when the module is placed or double-clicked on by Zeus
		curatorInfoType = "RscDisplayAttributeModuleNuke";

		// Module attributes, uses https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Eden_Editor:_Configuring_Attributes#Entity_Specific
		class Attributes: AttributesBase
		{
			// Arguments shared by specific module type (have to be mentioned in order to be present)
			class Units: Units
			{
				property = "myTag_ModuleNuke_Units";
			};
			// Module specific arguments
			class Yield: Combo
  			{
				// Unique property, use "<moduleClass>_<attributeClass>" format to make sure the name is unique in the world
				property = "myTag_ModuleNuke_Yield";
				displayName = "Nuclear weapon yield"; // Argument label
				tooltip = "How strong will the explosion be"; // Tooltip description
				typeName = "NUMBER"; // Value type, can be "NUMBER", "STRING" or "BOOL"
				defaultValue = "50"; // Default attribute value. WARNING: This is an expression, and its returned value will be used (50 in this case)
				class Values
				{
					class 50Mt	{name = "50 megatons";	value = 50;}; // Listbox item
					class 100Mt	{name = "100 megatons"; value = 100;};
				};
			};
			class Name: Edit
  			{
				displayName = "Name";
				tooltip = "Name of the nuclear device";
				// Default text filled in the input box
				// Because it's an expression, to return a String one must have a string within a string
				defaultValue = """Tsar Bomba""";
			};
			class ModuleDescription: ModuleDescription{}; // Module description should be shown last
		};

		// Module description. Must inherit from base class, otherwise pre-defined entities won't be available
		class ModuleDescription: ModuleDescription
		{
			description = "Short module description"; // Short description, will be formatted as structured text
			sync[] = {"LocationArea_F"}; // Array of synced entities (can contain base classes)
	 
			class LocationArea_F
			{
				description[] = { // Multi-line descriptions are supported
					"First line",
					"Second line"
				};
				position = 1; // Position is taken into effect
				direction = 1; // Direction is taken into effect
				optional = 1; // Synced entity is optional
				duplicate = 1; // Multiple entities of this type can be synced
				synced[] = {"BLUFORunit","AnyBrain"}; // Pre-define entities like "AnyBrain" can be used. See the list below
			};
			class BLUFORunit
			{
				description = "Short description";
				displayName = "Any BLUFOR unit"; // Custom name
				icon = "iconMan"; // Custom icon (can be file path or CfgVehicleIcons entry)
				side = 1; // Custom side (will determine icon color)
			};
		};
	};
};

2D Editor: The description is available after clicking on "Show Info" button when editing the module

Eden Editor: The description is available after opening the modules' attributes window

• Pre-defined sync preview entities can be:

Class	Descripton
Anything	Any object - persons, vehicles, static objects, etc.
AnyPerson	Any person. Not vehicles or static objects.
AnyVehicle	Any vehicle. No persons or static objects.
GroupModifiers	Group Modifiers
AnyStaticObject	Any static object. Not persons or vehicles.
AnyBrain	Any AI or player. Not empty objects
AnyAI	Any AI unit. Not players or empty objects
AnyPlayer	Any player. Not AI units or empty objects
EmptyDetector	Any trigger

4. Configuring the Module Function

• Place class CfgFunctions to config.cpp. See Functions Library (Arma 3) for more info about functions configuration.

Example
Show text

class CfgFunctions 
{
	class myTag
	{
		class Effects
		{
			file = "\myTag_addonName\functions";
			class moduleNuke{};
		};
	};
};

5. Writing the Module Function

• Create the functions folder within the addon folder and place *.sqf or *.fsm files there.
• Example: \myTag_addonName\functions\fn_moduleNuke.sqf
• Input parameters differ based on value of is3DEN property.

Default Example (is3DEN = 0)
Show text

// Argument 0 is module logic.
_logic = param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
// Argument 1 is list of affected units (affected by value selected in the 'class Units' argument))
_units = param [1,[],[[]]];
// True when the module was activated, false when it's deactivated (i.e., synced triggers are no longer active)
_activated = param [2,true,[true]];
// Module specific behavior. Function can extract arguments from logic and use them.
if (_activated) then {
	 // Attribute values are saved in module's object space under their class names
	 _bombYield = _logic getVariable ["Yield",-1]; //(as per the previous example, but you can define your own.) 
	 hint format ["Bomb yield is: %1", _bombYield ]; // will display the bomb yield, once the game is started 
};
// Module function is executed by spawn command, so returned value is not necessary, but it's good practice.
true

Example Eden Editor (is3DEN = 1)
Show text

When is3DEN = 1 is set in module config, different, more detailed params are passed to the function.

_mode = param [0,"",[""]];
_input = param [1,[],[[]]];

switch _mode do {
	// Default object init
	case "init": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]]; // Module logic
		_isActivated = _input param [1,true,[true]]; // True when the module was activated, false when it's deactivated
		_isCuratorPlaced = _input param [2,false,[true]]; // True if the module was placed by Zeus
		// ... code here...
	};
	// When some attributes were changed (including position and rotation)
	case "attributesChanged3DEN": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
		// ... code here...
	};
	// When added to the world (e.g., after undoing and redoing creation)
	case "registeredToWorld3DEN": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
		// ... code here...
	};
	// When removed from the world (i.e., by deletion or undoing creation)
	case "unregisteredFromWorld3DEN": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
		// ... code here...
	};
	// When connection to object changes (i.e., new one is added or existing one removed)
	case "connectionChanged3DEN": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
		// ... code here...
	};
	// When object is being dragged
	case "dragged3DEN": {
		_logic = _input param [0,objNull,[objNull]];
		// ... code here...
	};
};
true

Module Properties

If you use the Eden Editor please visit Eden Editor: System.

Property Name	Description
Name	The name of a module can be used to refer to the object in script code. Like all variable names, the name must not contain any spaces or reserved characters. You should try to make it something meaningful and avoid conflicts. Note that if a variable exists with an identical name, no warning will be given and the name will refer to the variable first, rather than the named unit. If you copy and paste a named entity, the duplicate will be automatically have an underscore and number appended to it's name to avoid conflicts.
Initialization	Any script code placed in this box will be executed as the mission begins. Script code is extremely powerful and useful - it allows you to create many effects and change aspects of the mission that would not be possible using only the graphical interface of the mission editor. For example, to make a soldier begin the mission unarmed, add "removeAllWeapons this" (without the quotation marks) to it's initialization string. Any expressions in the initialization field must return nothing, or an error message will prevent the unit dialogue from closing.
Description	The description property is not used by modules. However, it's used by some functions and it changes the tooltip in Eden Editor when hovering over the module icon.
Probability of Presence	Defines how likely it is that the entity will exist each time the mission is played. This can be used to add a bit of randomness to missions. Moving the slider all the way to the right means the object will always be there, all the way to the left means the unit will never appear. Note the Condition of Presence must also return true if the entity is to appear in the mission.
Condition of Presence	This is a script code condition which must return true in order for the object to appear in the mission. By default this reads "true" which means the object will appear as defined by it's Probability of Presence. For an example, if you wanted a unit to appear only if the mission is being played in Veteran mode, place "!cadetMode" (without quotation marks) in it's Condition of Presence box. A unit with a Condition of Presence that returns false will not exist in the mission, irrespective of its Probability of Presence.
Placement Radius	Changes the object's starting position to a random point within a circle of this radius, in metres. This can be used to add some randomness to your mission. For grouped units, the placement radius is only used by the group leader, and group members with a Special setting of None (or In Cargo for a group without suitable vehicle).
