Content : This addon pack by Chain of Command includes :
- CoC CEA Pack (CoC Command Engine X 1.0 ) - CoC NSA Pack (CoC Network Services 3.1)
CoC Command Engine X 1.0 -------------------------------------------------------- Like its predecessors in OFP, CEX is a script addon that enables players to control multiple groups. Units are organized in hierarchical command chains allowing the representation of real life military units such as platoons, companies or battalions.
CEX functionality can be incorporated into any mission. Mission designers have full control over the command structures and can freely assign command capabilities to the players.
CEX is designed to be fully multiplayer compatible. Players can take any position within the command structure on any side, be it commander-in-chief, squad leader or private.
CEX commanders control their subordinate units via an intuitive graphical user interface which borrows elements found in real-time strategy games. Despite the intention to grant easy access, the underlying system is intended as a realistic simulation of higher-level combat in ArmA.
The addon contains several fully playable missions as well as templates for mission designers to base their own missions on.
Network Services 3.1 Public Beta -------------------------------------------------------- Many of you may already be aware of NS from our previous ancestor, OFP. We took this addon and made significant updates, optimizations, and enhancements to support ArmA. For our old-school players, there should be little explaining to do, and you can look foward to porting your NS supported addons over to ArmA. Otherwise, you may find NS 3.0 helpful for creating in depth missions like Capture The Island (CTI), Real Time Strategy (RTS), possibly CE3 for command control ;), and many other missions/addons that require an advance networking solution. NS 3.0 can also aid in minimizing network traffic and synchronizing JIP Clients.

CoC Network Services Public for ArmA 08/14/2008 ================================================================
Created by The Chain of Command, www.thechainofcommand.com. Originally Authored by Author: Bn880, Dinger, and Spinor. Ported to ArmA by Pennywise (onepremise@gmail.com).
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: ================================================================
ARMA 1.08+
CHANGELOG (3.1 Release) ================================================================ * fNAddPublicArray is now used to modify CoC_PublicArrays * Added special event handlers that excute globally for JIP, respawn, and disconnect. * Added functions that allow you to retrieve IDs by side * Tweaked sleeps to prevent lag upon respawn * Updated PublicArray to prevent assigning arrays to incorrect variables. * Resolved JIP connect and rejoin issues with the ClientList not updating appropriately * All sqs scripts have been converted over to functions, sqf
* Taken steps to make use of 'isNil'. isNil will tests whether a variable is null. The function returns true if the variable is null and false if it's not.
* There were situations where quotations were being used in place of brackets. ArmA no longer accepts this syntax. Quotations can no longer be used with while blocks, count blocks, and any other forms of control structures. You must use brackets for representing any code to be executed.
* You have to 'compile' any function prior to passing it into 'call'. In addition, you must always use brackets to represent code now.
* Theres a new method call 'str' which Converts any variable to a string. This method was refactored in to replace previous conventions, possibly optimizing code.
* fDecToAlpha.sqf has been depricated due to 'str' enhancements
* remote scripts execute in ArmA now.
* Implement JIP or an equivalent, "OnPlayerConnected";JIP onPlayerConnected resolved
* JIP onPlayerDisconnect resolved
* CoC_ClientList is no longer empty and CoC_ClientChannel is assigned in ArmA.
* PublicArray now works appropriately. Nested arrays can be sent to clients as well in ArmA.
* PublicVariable now sends strings to enhance service.
* CoC_ClientList boolean value for connection status updates upon JIP rejoin or disconnect CoC_ClientList for tracking connection type. Type is set to one of three modes: "NODE_STARTUP", "NODE_JIP","NODE_JIP_REJOIN".
* Added CoC_isJIPClient flag to quickly check if client is JIP Client.
