Populate FFE spotter list in Init.sqf via enemy preset case.

[carlmylo]

Current State:

Every campaign needs to have:

• enemies assigned to FFE's RydFFE_FOClass list within Init.sqf so that they can spot players and BLUFOR.
• enemy artillery defined within FFE's RydFFE_Add_Other list so it knows what weapons FFE can use.

If this isn't done, FFE simply doesn't function.

Suggested change:

Ideally we would check the enemy preset case defined in KPLIB_preset_opfor and then pull from the arrays in KPLIB_o_militiaInfantry, KPLIB_o_militiaVehicles, KPLIB_o_armyVehicles, KPLIB_o_armyVehiclesLight, KPLIB_o_battleGrpVehicles, KPLIB_o_battleGrpVehiclesLight, KPLIB_o_troopTransports, KPLIB_o_helicopters. On top of this, we should also use the listed classes near the beginning of the file, which are:

• KPLIB_o_officer
• KPLIB_o_squadLeader
• KPLIB_o_teamLeader
• KPLIB_o_sentry
• KPLIB_o_rifleman
• KPLIB_o_riflemanLAT
• KPLIB_o_grenadier
• KPLIB_o_machinegunner
• KPLIB_o_heavyGunner
• KPLIB_o_marksman
• KPLIB_o_sharpshooter
• KPLIB_o_sniper
• KPLIB_o_atSpecialist
• KPLIB_o_aaSpecialist
• KPLIB_o_medic
• KPLIB_o_engineer
• KPLIB_o_paratrooper

Do note that the preset directories for the cases are defined differently now. Arsenals are in fn_initArsenal.sqf. Enemies are still defined in init_presets.sqf

We can perhaps look at the recent SAM site implementation located in SAM_turret_manager.sqf and fn_getOpforSpawnPointSAM.sqf.

This pulls from preset files, like this example in custom.sqf.

In doing this, we could automate FFE implementation and make it more compatible.

Challenges:

• FFE requires all listed enemies and enemy artillery to be in lowercase.
  • Anything can be converted to lower case with toLowerANSI. It supports underscores and quotation marks.
• As of Chongo campaign, enemies needed to be listed in a long vertical list as opposed to a compact and neat array. Not sure if this is user error or if it's actually required. Will test.
• How does the SAM site implementation differ from FFE? I assume FFE is a better choice still due to the sheer amount of settings.

We are now moving to having init.sqf per mission making this unnecessary.
