Disable underwater communication

Disable radios and direct speech under water.
As this is unrealistic we should simply disable it, therefore i consider it as an optimization. Perhaps a filter can be applied to direct speech.

Implementation of underwater radios is not part of this issue and should be considered as a long-term goal (-> #14)

Use new alternate callExtension syntax

New syntax since 1.67 (1.68 stable) extension callExtension [function, arguments] improves performance by not needing to separate the string in the extension (minimal) and using format in SQF (bigger, but still small). Although mild, this will prove rather a big gain due to the number of extension calls we do.

Additionally, return of the new callExtension syntax can be used with parseSimpleArray for large performance improvements when returning multiple values.

Use custom radio box model for Radio Supply Crate

From #265

Feature Request: Modify the TS Mute Range

Good evening,

would it be possible to make the TS mute range editable for a mission creator?

Improve handling of duplicate radios in the masterIdTracker

Note this ticket may not make a lot of sense. It's more some future notes I'll follow up on later. Feel free to ignore. I need to better poke the code.

There's some really funky behaviour that occurs here. Good test case is to run a mission with ACE respawn and respawn on death location setup. This will cause the ID to be duplicated on respawn.

IDs seem to be requested multiple times and the garbage collector may be a bit stricter than neccesary

---

Notes on the code:

the _players variable doesn't take into account former units pre-respawn. Which means it will garbage collect former player bodies if duplicates are found. It is also iterates through the _duplicateList which I believe may issue upto 3 requestson the following: (if I am understanding it correctly)
[(_data select 0), _baseRadio, "acre_sys_radio_returnRadioId", _key] call FUNC(onGetRadioId);

In my limited testing there is however still only one active ID used though.

SEM52SL Antenna

We need to create a binarized antenna for the SEM52SL. As a placeholder it uses a 120cm BNC.

It should use either a 40cm or 90cm BNC.

Add game component backwards compatibility

Missions have acre_game defined from previous versions, we should provide backwards compatibility for at least 2 versions. Have to add CfgPatches entry to prevent erroring.

Yet to be decided if we want to keep backwards compatibility forever or only a number of versions.

Direct speech volume - Reset/Changes

Description:

• Sometimes at mission start the direct speech volume will not reset to the middle setting.
• I am not entirely sure but I am somewhat convinced it also has a tendency to change mid-mission.

I have no idea what is causing this but it warrants further investigation

Antenna simulation model creation tutorial

We need a tutorial for creating the binarized data for antenna's for ACRE2.

difficulty settings are not found in eden

Mods:

The difficulty settings module isn't found in 3DEN.

Add an ammo box full of the radios

It would be nice to have an ammo box that is filled with all of the radios like TFAR

Add API function/events for modifying signal post-calculation

Description:

• This would be really useful to allow other mods/missions to interact with the signal model but adding an event style system (where the return values would influence the signal strength) - This could be used to add boosting/degradation/jamming.

Underwater Radios

Add underwater radios (and underlying calculations)

A few points to be considered:

• Underwater Communication is not trivial
• Only low frequency communication is useful
• Investigation on Radios and
• their realization are part of this

Switch antenna data models from MMANA-GAL to 4nec2

Description:

• At present the binary gain data for the anntenas is generated from MMANA-GAL, switching to 4nec2 would make things easier for others to produce these models and the data format is easier to work with and could provide better simulation information.

Tasks:

• Update C++ signal processing to use the new format
• Generate data for the currently used antennas
• Create a tutorial.

CBA settings deal with handling of load order precedence

Description:

• CBA settings mix with our present API functions may have some undesirable edge cases such as API functions actions being overridden by the default values when the settings are initialised. Whilst ideally server settings should override mission settings. Mission settings (API pre settings being set) should override default values.

Documentation - Complete all function headers

We need to complete all the generic function headers. General format should be already in every function.

Help is definitely appreciated

No support for HOTAS warthog

Arma 3 Version: stable
CBA Version: stable
ACRE2 Version: stable

Mods:

- @CBA_A3
- @acre2
- @ace3

Description:
Cannot bind ACRE2 actions to joypads or joysticks/throttles.

I have a HOTAS warthog, and as a replica of a real joystick it has a communications 4-way switch on the throttle. For some reason you cannot bind this in ACRE2 and it would be immensely helpful as I'd have to find the keyboard buttons each time I wanted to talk, which is bad in case you're airborne etc. The controller is natively recognized by Arma3 and you can bind it to other voice channels as for example the group, side and direct chat.

This seems to in effect for all mods we currently use even the ACE-related ones. So the assumption is that it's actually not enabled for mods to bind joystick/joypad controls and it therefore is an arma3 vanilla issue. However, I'm reporting it here and hopefully it can be flow upstream as in other open source development.

Also if you read the configs for ACRE2 it does not mention external controllers. Support seems to exist only for ascii keyboards.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start the game with mods.
2. Start any mission where you are a player of any kind.
3. Enter options and switch to mod bind menu.
4. Select ACRE2 option and bind it to a joystick or joypad button.

If reproduced, it should not succeed in binding the control.

Where did the issue occur?
All known menus.

Placed Modules:
None

Radios are very unreliable concerning incoming transmissions

Arma 3 Version: 1.68.140908 (stable)
CBA Version: 3.2.1.1702272 (stable)
ACRE2 Version: 2.4.0.942 (stable)

Mods:

• CBA_A3
• acre2

Description:
Radios randomly don't receive some transmissions, even when the conditions don't change between the incoming transmissions. If you repeat the transmissions under the same conditions, then again it will randomly drop some of them. You do hear the radio clicks but not the actual transmission. The annoying part is that often this bug happens under perfect conditions where you clearly should be receiving the transmission.

The radios always work perfectly at the start, but it seems that something screws them up later down the line. This seems to be related to people traveling around the map. Therefore, it might also be related to the map terrain or buildings. But we haven't managed to pinpoint what the exact cause is.

During actual missions (containing many players) the bug is easily recognized when there's a group of people standing close to each other, and some of them receive a transmission while others don't.

Sometimes, you end up with a situation where two people are standing on the salt flats on Altis, close to each other (but far enough apart to be able to hear each other's transmissions), but they don't hear each other's radio transmissions. That's a sign that something is going horribly wrong with ACRE.

We found this bug back in October and we just did another (long) test with the latest ACRE version but the bug is still there. Unfortunately, in my community we had to rollback to ACRE version 2.1.0.811. That's the last version where the radio worked normally. Maybe that can give you an idea what could be causing this bug.

Here's a video on an older ACRE version that shows the bug and how to reproduce it:
https://youtu.be/d7pOjGgNG7Q?t=13m15s

Here's one that shows the bug happening on the salt flats:
https://youtu.be/fNgW0f1HgpA?t=2m45s

Steps to reproduce:
We haven't found a scientific way to reproduce the bug. It seems to happen a lot by chance. Reproducing the bug can be a bit tedious because sometimes it happens fairly quickly (a minute into the mission), while other times it can take up to half an hour. I've had cases where the bug happened in hilly areas and not on the salt flats, but also vice versa! We've done tests with long and short transmissions but it happens with both. We've done tests with the terrain interference and antenna direction settings, but the bug happens with all settings we tried.

Anyway, here's how we pretty much always (eventually) manage to run into the bug.

• Create a new mission on Altis in the editor, add two playable infantry slots, give them a 148 radio each, and an empty helicopter.

• Start this mission on a dedicated server. Get in the helicopter, then travel to a random area on the map.

• Once landed, move about 500 meters away from each other. Try to keep line of sight to each other to make sure there's nothing blocking the signal. Also, I suspect that if you are within proximity of hills and/or buildings, you can increase the likelihood of running into this bug.

• Every time you stop to do a test, make each person do 10 short transmissions where you count to 10 (like you see people do in the videos I linked above), so that the other person knows when one of the transmissions has bugged out.

• The bug will probably not appear at first. So, get in the helo and travel to another area of the map, then repeat the above steps. Keep doing that until the bug appears, usually it happens after about 20 or so minutes of testing.

• Eventually, someone will not hear one (or more) of the numbers that are being transmitted. When that happens, don't move, then repeat the test a few times. If it keeps randomly dropping some transmissions, you've found the bug.

Access violation crash in antenna gain map

Description:
Arma3 CTD when radio traffic is being sent when playing with x64.
We were able to reproduce the error and it happens when someone is transmitting over the radio (tested with 343 and 152) and you are the receiver and you combine that with taking damage. We tried shooting and the crash occurred, we tried grenading and the error occurred and so on.

Steps to reproduce:
We did a four man test running latest perfomance build v07 (on Dwardens request) with, in the end, only CBA and ACRE2 running, still being able to reproduce the error. We did however test is with a plethora of mod combinations and result was the same. We've tried it with first release of 1.68, then the hotfixed version and most performance builds up to and including v07. Error occurs on all tried versions of 1.68.
The map is Altis. 4 players placed and a game master module with all unofficial mods allowed, no more, no less. The mission was started on a dedicated server running CBA and ACRE2.
We tried this "incrementally", so multiple ppl took turn transmitting but as soon as person 1 got shot he/she crashed. Next person in line got shot, crashed and so on. It did however take a few times for the crash to trigger so one person had to respawn 10 times for it to happen, another crashed right away, and the third 4 respawns etc.
We were not able to reproduce the error if you were the transmitter and getting shot. It's only the receiver that crashes.

Last sunday we experienced the same issue with our full mod set but our Zeus who were using x86 (by mistake) did not crash. All players were running x64 and all of us crashed several times.

We tried using alternate mallocs and -hugePage in all kinds of combinations and that did not affect things.

Even if it takes a few tries we can 100% reproduce this error and cannot use ACRE2 if we want to play.

Where did the issue occur?
Dedicated, x64. Vanilla and perf build v07 tested.

SEM 52 - Problem with set Frequency

Mods:

Description:

• Generaly, when we setup a frequency on the SEM52 whitch is not integer ( 49.000) then not everyone on the same frequency can hear everyone (Group of 8 Players).
  Our guess is, that its diffrent, how you set the frequence. Example
  Players should set the 49.975. The players which go up to 50.000 and go down one step could hear everyone with the workflow. But they cannot hear players which go to 49.000 and go the steps up.

Infantry phone: improve notifications when switching intercoms

Infantry phone: improve notification system when switching between intercoms. Problems:

• Display messages are currently handled in fnc_vehicleCrewPFH.sqf
• Switching between intercoms would trigger two display messages: disconnected from YYY and switched to XXX.

ACRE fails to initialise - Can't hear anyone (but everyone else can hear you on direct)

This is an issue in the current versions that has a low probability of occurring (~1 in 15). The temporary solution is to restart the game/teamspeak.

In my tinkering it seems that the client variable ACRE_MAP_LOADED remains false and that setting it to true tends to fix the effected client.

Server FPS drops caused by masterIdTracker

Arma 3 Version: 1.64 & 1.62 stable
CBA Version: 3.0.0 stable (latest)
ACRE2 Version: 2.3.0.905/6 dev c115377

Mods:

• @CBA_A3
• @acre2

Description:

• Severe server FPS drops every 10 seconds.
• I have thoroughly tested this, and believe I've found the cause. I will go through my entire findings to paint a clearer picture.
• Last Saturday, we (the unit I play with, 30-40 guys) started playing an op, with at least 300+ ai. I noticed some pretty severe desync, and monitoring server FPS saw a consistent drop to 1 from ~45 every second. Post-op, I did some further testing by removing mods, changing versions etc. I found the drops to be caused by ACRE.
• Today, I cloned this git, and tested with the build from the latest commit. I no longer had the server FPS drop every second. However, I noticed a new drop every 10 seconds. Same as before, average 45 server FPS, dropping to <20 every 10 seconds, depending on the number of ai/vehicles active at the time.
• Through some poking, I found the masterIdTracker to be the cause, as this was the only thing I could find that runs every 10 seconds on the server. I commented out line 21 in
  addons/sys_server/fnc_masterIdTracker.sqf: GVAR(doFullSearch) = true;
  so it no longer did the full search every 10 seconds. I built and tested again, with the same mission file, and the server FPS drop every 10 seconds had gone.
• I believe this to be the line that causes the FPS drop, as it scales with the number of units, players, vehicles, containers active in the mission:
  private _searchObjects = allPlayers + allUnits + allDead + vehicles + (allMissionObjects "WeaponHolder"); // search players first
• I don't know the full repercussions of stopping this check, but they cannot be good if the check needs to be done every 10 seconds.
• This is a fairly severe issue in my opinion, as units with larger numbers of players and big missions get hit hard by desync, making it fairly unplayable.

Steps to reproduce:

• Load only CBA and ACRE built from latest commit
• Make a mission with 1 player, and a gamemaster module so you can use zeus.
• Launch a dedicated server with the same mods enabled.
• Join the server and login as admin. Run #monitor 0.1
• Watch the server FPS. With just 1 player placed, this should be a fairly constant ~45 FPS.
• Place a group of ai and give them a waypoint so they're doing something. Copy and paste the group with the waypoint enough times to have at least 200 ai active in the scenario.
• Wait for the FPS to settle back to ~45.
• Look carefully and you should see FPS drops every 10 seconds. Do #monitor 0.2 if it is too fast.
• To exacerbate the issue, place more ai or anything that could be a container.

Where did the issue occur?

Teamspeak 3.1 will make some interesting changes to the way plugins are handled. They will now be stored in the local user's appdata folder. One benefit is that copying of the plugins will no longer require admin priviledges.

• Update teamspeak plugin API version -> #170
• Update the steam/auto-copy dll to use the new plugin locations -> #114

The teamspeak plugin location can no longer be read from the registry. There is also now a feature for syncing teamspeak plugins across various machines but I don't think this will be useful for ACRE2. For example (win 10) - C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\TS3Client\plugins

Prevent default log file from always getting created

An easylogging++ thing.

Also update easylogging++ to latest version.

SEM52SL - Invisible on ultra-wide setups.

ACRE2 Version: 2.0.3.926 (stable / dev + commit hash)

Description:

• SEM52SL background does not display on ultra-wide resolutions

Steps to reproduce:

• Use resolution 5860x1080 and bring up the SEM52SL interface

5860x1080 - SafeZone stuff
safezonew = 7.27078
safezoneh = 1.81818
safezoney = -0.409091

// Extract from config
y=SafeZoneY + SafeZoneH - NEW_SCALE * SafeZoneH + 2/8 * safeZoneW;

// Below sum is greater than the screen height (safezoneh)....
2/8 * safeZoneW = 1.817695

Document and reimplement D(E)FUNC macros

acre2/addons/main/script_macros.hpp

Lines 79 to 80 in fb6ce40

	#define DFUNC(var1) TRIPLES(ADDON,fnc,var1)
	#define DEFUNC(var1,var2) TRIPLES(DOUBLES(PREFIX,var1),fnc,var2)

are just copies of (E)FUNC, once all PRs convert we should just remove them.

Document D(E)FUNC properly with the "definite function" use case.

TODO list for Documentation

Todo:

• Team member accreditation (Python script through Travis that populates team list page automatically on commits to master)
  • git shortlog -s -n --no-merges
  • Custom additions (outside contributors, eg. models)
• Functions list generator (Python script through Travis) (#991)
  • Change links from acre.idi-systems.com to new pages
• Class names list generator (Python script through Travis)
• Change colours to dark yellow (like ACRE2 logo) - https://github.com/IDI-Systems/acre2/tree/docsYellowTheme it looks fugly

Volume slider doesn't change anything

From what a lot of people have reported within our community, the volume slider appears to not change anything. If you go to whisper, you can still be heard the same distance as shout for example.

Is this a known issue or is it something we're doing on our end that breaks it?

Isla Duala Client/Server Crash

Arma 3 Version: stable
CBA Version: stable
ACRE2 Version: stable

Mods:

- CBA_A3
- acre2
- ACE3
- Isla Duala A3
- CUP Complete
- etc, more details below

Description:
Isla Duala A3 is not loadable with ACRE2 enabled.
I have tested this with both my full modpack enabled, and disabled. The result is the same, client + server silently crashes. RPT logs for clients have been attached, I will attach a fresh RPT for the server as well.
Server does not properly log an RPT for this crash, the log file becomes corrupt after crashing.

Steps to reproduce:

• Launch/Select an Isla Duala mission on dedicated server.
• Join
• Slot in, and hit accept
• Server will crash, all connected clients will crash

Where did the issue occur?

• Dedicated

Placed Modules:

• None, utilized a blank mission with 1 soldier to test

RPT log file:
Links provided below. This is from 1 client running the modpack. If required, I can supply RPTs running just ACRE2+CBA+CUP Terrains + Isla Duala

Tools - GitHub publish tool errors

The Jenkins build script has some issues/areas for improvement.

• Improve the steam publish script to link to the release tag directly?
  Perhaps something like:
  "steam_changelog": "Version {major}.{minor}.{patch}.{build} - See changelog on github - https://github.com/IDI-Systems/acre2/releases/v{major}.{minor}.{patch}.{build}"
• tag_name was not valid - see below
