dayZ NPC (AI) Units / Troops | Add to Server.

is there anyway you can get these guards to respawn after a certain ammount of time? been at this all day, got the NPC's working, just they die then never respawn. any help would be much appreciated.
 
Code: 
 private["_aiunit","_xpos","_ypos","_unitpos","_aiGroup","_wppos","_wpradius","_wpnum","_numunits","_rndLOut","_ailoadout","_aiwep","_aiammo","_wp","_aispawnpos"];

    _xpos = _aispawnpos select 0;
    _ypos = _aispawnpos select 1;
 
    diag_log format ["AIUNIT: Spawn initiated: Centre:%1 | Radius in m:%2 | Waypoint number:%3",_aispawnpos,_wpradius,_wpnum];
 
    for [{ x=1 },{ x < _numunits+1 },{ x = x + 1; }] do {
    _unitpos = [_xpos+x,_ypos+x,0];
 
    _rndLOut=floor(random 3);
    _ailoadout=
    switch (_rndLOut) do
    {
      case 0: {["AK_47_M","30Rnd_762x39_AK47"]};
      case 1: {["M4A1_AIM_SD_camo","30Rnd_556x45_StanagSD"]};
      case 2: {["Remington870_lamp","8Rnd_B_Beneli_74Slug"]};
    };
 
    "BAF_Soldier_L_DDPM" createUnit [_unitpos, _aiGroup, "_aiunit=this;",0.6,"Private"];

    //sleep 0.5;
    } ;
 
    //generate waypoints
    for [{ x=1 },{ x < _wpnum },{ x = x + 1; }] do {
    _wppos = [_xpos+(x*20),_ypos+(x*20),_wpradius];
    _wp = _aiGroup addWaypoint [_wppos, _wpradius];
    _wp setWaypointType "MOVE";
    };
    _wp = _aiGroup addWaypoint [[_xpos,_ypos,0], _wpradius];
    _wp setWaypointType "CYCLE";
 
    diag_log format ["AIUNIT: Last Waypoint %1 at %2",_wp,_wppos];

Do i have to change anything there? I have already changed waypoints and spawns and guns in the dayz_ai_npc_units.pbo ! Do i have to change anything more???

I would add an eventhandler to each, on killed, then check if any of the group still live, if not call another spawn command..

You can do this:

add_unit_server.sqf:
Code: 
_aiunit enableAI "TARGET";
_aiunit enableAI "AUTOTARGET";
_aiunit enableAI "MOVE";
_aiunit enableAI "ANIM";
_aiunit enableAI "FSM";
_aiunit allowDammage true;
_aiunit setCombatMode "RED";
_aiunit setBehaviour "COMBAT";
//When npc is dead, reappears in this dead place
_aiunit addEventHandler ["Killed",{null=_this+[(getPosATL (_this Select 0)),wpradius,wpnum,1] execVM "units\unit_killed.sqf";}];

unit_killed.sqf:
Code: 
private ["_player","_killer","_aispawnpos","_wpradius","_wpnum","_numUnits","_banditKills","_humanity"];
_player = _this select 0;
_killer = _this select 1;
_aispawnpos = _this select 2;
_wpradius = _this select 3;
_wpnum = _this select 4;
_numUnits = _this select 5;
_banditKills = 0;
_humanity = 0;
 
//AI kill counter & humanity
//I play with npc bandit
_banditKills = _killer getVariable["banditKills",0];
_killer setVariable["banditKills",_banditKills+1,true];
_humanity = _killer getVariable["humanity",0];
_killer setVariable["humanity",_humanity+100,true];
 
sleep 12;//12 seconds test
 
aispawnpos = _aispawnpos;
wpradius = _wpradius;
wpnum = _wpnum;
numUnits = _numUnits;
 
//_player hideObject true;
_aispawn = [aispawnpos,wpradius,wpnum,numUnits] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";
 
So thing is, u download the deafult misson pbo, open init.sqf and put the
if (isServer) then {
_dayzFactions = [] execVM "Dayz_Factions\init.sqf";
//diag_log format["Dayz Factions executed: %1",_dayzFactions];
//Array to pass to .sqf: [[<worldspace>],radius of waypoints (in metres),number of waypoints,number of ai units]
_aispawn = [[6689.49,2623.59,0],160,8,4] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//Chernogorsk
_aispawn = [[7622.51,7912.7,0],5000,20,6] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//Chernaurs (Whole map)
_aispawn = [[7625.51,7915.7,0],5000,20,6] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//Chernaurs (Whole map)
_aispawn = [[4598.66,10197.7,0],650,12,4] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//NW Airfield
_aispawn = [[10447.5,2246.96,0],180,3,3] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//Electrozavodsk
_aispawn = [[13253.3,6406.53,0],180,4,3] execVM "units\add_unit_server.sqf";//Solnichniy
};
Anywhere in the file? am i right?

Check your .rpt file for an error.. if nothing make sure all files are where they should be. Zeroday is a separate issue, are you using another ai mod ?

I fixed it, but now its says something went wrong, disconnect and try again...
Yes i used the one that you linked below yours
 
Can anybody make a for dummies way of making this, like a step by step? I know bare minimum about coding, took one class in high school. >.> You guys are speaking a different language.
 
I have got a problem adding this to Taviana, can anybody help me? I just bought a new Taviana server and the init is much diffrent from chernarus
 
So long as the init.sqf entries go in the isServer bit:
Code: 
if (isServer) then {
<IN HERE>
};
it should run. Not sure how it works on Tavi, am sure people here will have some experience..
 
I just get a loading screen, do i add the code including this if (isServer) then { or just below it? Because i just added it below it and it didnt work
 
Is the tutorial on page one of this post up to date? i think i am following it.... :/ maybe i'll back up my files before i try this.. :)

Have you changed the worldspace entries for tavi ? Locations are different..
