I found few serious bugs:
-AI can see and shoot you through the floor (you can test it by just throwing grenade at floor - it will go through), it applies to ALL horizontal surfaces: for example top of the container, most (if not all) of the floors, etc.
-You can't shoot through the window, puffs of the dust will just appear.

When shooting at metallic parts, puffs of the dust appear. Can you replace it with metallic effect? It should be quite simple config thing.

Just a simple question ... does anyone has been able to use ladders ? I don't so please be so kind to let me know about it.
Also another bug for those who want to use this addon into custom maps ... there is no map icon when imported (this grey rectangle) ...

There seems to be an invisible wall between each of the small buoys. I can swim under them with my underwater diving module, but can't seem to swim over or between them. Not sure if this is intentional or not, but I still love this rig as we don't have anything else at the moment that is placable on a map.

Also, do you think it would be possible to make much longer legs for the deeper parts of the game world ocean?

Ok BlackHawk, I'll have a look this following weekend when I have spare time and I'll fix up those issues.
Aplion, I have tested the ladders with atleast 8 different people and we could all do it successfully.

Also Feint, it is intentional as there is a Defect in the ARMA engine where you would spawn on top of the oilrig due to it using roadways to walk on. What happens is that when you spawn under a Roadway LOD, ARMA 2 will take you to the top so you don't glitch. This cannot be fixed sorry, so I Put buoys around the thing and a ladder that goes out towards the buoys.

___________________________________________________________________

ALSO: Use this command in 2d Editor for the Parameters, this will set the height of the oirlig: (Change the value of 20 to change height, just play around with it, until you have the outside ladder just touching the water)

this setPos [getPos this select 0, getPos this select 1, 20:

]

I also suggest using setposASL instead of setpos, because setpos changes it's value as waves go up and down, this can make objects placed on the rig get displaced.

So script would look like this

this setposASL [getposASL this select 0, getposASL this select 1, 3]

If I remember correctly, height of 3 worked prfectly in my case.

Hey, i love this addon, but there is a problem, whenever i place this in the water, it automatically goes to the seafloor, any way i can make it stay at the surface?
