How to add a script to an item in the Arma Reforger editor.

by

Adding a script component to an item in the Arma Reforger world editor is easy.

Give the entity a unique name in the editor. I named it ‘bottle1’.

Naming an entity in the Reforger World Editor.

Then click the + sign on the blue Script option to open the script editor.

Here is the sample script I got.

class bottle1_Class: GenericEntity 
{
	override void EOnInit(IEntity owner)
	{
		/* code here */
 
	}
 
};

There does need to be sample scripts around, it is very hard to learn scripting when you can not find a sample to make an item glow or make it interactive.

But I did find this script, this is a sample modded scoring system.

modded class SCR_ScoringSystemComponent : SCR_BaseScoringSystemComponent
{
	override int CalculateScore(SCR_ScoreInfo info)
	{
		// We are replacing there modifiers which would normally provided via parameters 
		// m_iDeathScoreMultiplier is replaced by 10
		// m_iSuicideScoreMultiplier is also replaced by 10
		// That translates into situation where for every death or suicide, you are getting ten shiny points!
		int score = info.m_iKills 		* m_iKillScoreMultiplier +
					info.m_iTeamKills 	* m_iTeamKillScoreMultiplier +
					info.m_iDeaths		* 10 +
					info.m_iSuicides 	* 10 +
					info.m_iObjectives 	* m_iObjectiveScoreMultiplier;
 
		// Original  code from CalculateScore - we are leaving it untouched 
		if (score < 0)
			return 0;
 
		return score;
	}	
}

This is another sample script, this is how to play a sound in-game.

// "modded" keyword lets you modify already existing script classes
modded class SCR_BaseScoringSystemComponent : SCR_BaseGameModeComponent
{
	// Method which is called when someone commits suicide in game
	override void AddSuicide(int playerId, int count = 1)
	{
		// If you only want expand already existing method without modifying already existing logic then you can
		// use "super" keyword to invoke original method
		super.AddSuicide(playerId,count);
 
		// Play additional non spatial sound when someone commits suicide
		AudioSystem.PlaySound("{9BB653FF9E065943}Sounds/Animals/Bos_Taurus/Samples/bawl/bawl_0.wav");
	}
}
