Description

AI Abductors brings a new element to your DayZ Expansion server — AI can now kidnap players and drag them off to unknown locations.

When an AI tasers or KOs a player using melee there is a configurable chance the player will be abducted, have their gear stripped, and wake up surrounded by wolves in the wilderness — or worse. You can even send them to custom locations like jails.

It works like this:

  • AI shoots player with a Expansion taser or optionally just KOs them
  • If conditions are met the player is abducted
  • Players hands are bound and head is optionally bagged
  • Gear is optionally stripped and stashed somewhere nearby
  • Player wakes up in a random spot or a custom location
  • Player escapes bindings and has a chance to recover any stripped gear by finding it

UPDATE Sept 13th

New features and bug fixes -- existing users need to regenerate the config file to use the new options

  • added check if player is inside vehicle, they will not be abducted if true (avoids issue w player locking)
  • added chack if ai that caused last damage is dead (fix for delayed abduction)
  • refactored on uncon logic (fix for delayed abduction)
  • added fix for Bitterroot oddball coords
  • added compatibility for x2 taser
  • changed abduction barrel will no longer spawn if not configured to strip players
  • random barrel placement is capped to 10 iterations to find safe place. This along with Bitterroot fix should eliminate reports of black screen
  • added option chance player gets a broken leg when abducted
  • added option for loot barrel to be on fire - slowly damages players gear until removed from barrel - will not destroy loot only damage it to extreme badly damaged status
  • added option for random items to be stolen from players gear

Features

AI Abductors is highly configurable:

  • Configurable chance of abduction on AI taser hit
  • Set chance of player being taken to a “special location” vs. random area
  • Customize gear stripping and stash radius
  • Spawn wolves, bears, or any entity to prowl around the waking player
  • Customize player warning messages and icons
  • Customizable discord webhook to notify others of the event
  • Optional AI squad can spawn after abduction with full loadout/settings control
  • Configure AI to spawn randomly around the waking player or in specific locations
  • Customizable AI behaviors
  • Option to let AI fists or melee weapon KOs trigger abduction
  • Option to allow only specific melee weapons to trigger abduction
  • Option to restrict abduction by AI faction
  • Option to allow loot barrel to smoke for easier locating
  • Option to define specific location for loot barrel to spawn (see config explanation)
  • If other players are nearby (~30m) then a player won't be abducted
  • Option for using handcuffs or ducttape

Additional features:

  • Mathematically compatible with any map
  • Abduction can be triggered by any AI using a Expansion Taser, Taser X2, or melee
  • Tasers function as normal when used by players
