Norrin released an updated version of his Revive Script for Arma 3, which he ported from Arma 2, on the BI forums.
Quote norrin :
I thought this was probably an appropriate day to start posting these. Over the next few weeks I'm hopefully going to post some of my scripts from Arma 2 that I have converted to work with Arma 3.
I've had a couple of people request this so the old dinosaur is back. Its essentially the old Arma 2 Revive v05 ported to work in Arma 3.
Its still a mess of code but as far as I can tell it seems to be working OK after the changes I have made.
In the archive is the old readMe and howTo, the only difference is if you want to use the "respawn at base add weapons" option then the format of the array is different and currently undocumented in the readMe - I'll get around to updating it some day.
Let me know if you run into any probs.
Changelog:
- version 0.43:
- Definitely fixed the pvEH.sqf error on a dedicated server
- Error in revive_player.sqf fixed - this was causing a multitude of error reports in the dedicated server log
- version 0.42:
- Hopefully fixed the server bug related to JIP and respawn following death identified by [KH]Jman.
- Fix for group members rejoining leader's group following revive identified by Southpaw51.
version 0.41:- Multiple errors in the vcl_respawn.sqf
- The carrying action should now work as it did in ArmA2

SpunFIN released an updated version of his AI Spawn Script Pack on the Armaholic forums.
Quote spunFIN :
I didn't find ACM from editor so I decided to do something "similar" and ended up building a pack of scripts I use in my own missions. These scripts can be called from init fields, Game Logics, triggers, almost from anywhere.
These are the 4 main scripts of current version:- ambientCombat.sqf
Spawns random groups and vehicles around player/object and makes them patrol around it. Both teams can have both kind of armed choppers. You can define how many groups there is at the same time, how far they spawn, spawning delay, AI skill levels, do AI groups communicate, how far from "defined center" they dissapear, and other stuff.
Every vehicle is counted as one group, so if 'groups' argument is set to 2, there might spawn only 2 vehicles, eventhough vehicles spawns with 30% probability. Once group is dead or distance between group and center object is more than defined max distance, group will be deleted and new one is created. Groups will spawn equally for both teams.
AmbientCombat can also be deleted with external script, which has it's own features to offer you different solutions.
- militarize.sqf
Fills area with units. You can define the area size, units side, does soldiers or ground vehicles or both spawn, will they stay still or patrol inside area, how much there will spawn units, AI skill levels, and other stuff.
- fillHouse.sqf
Fills nearest building, OR all buildings in defined range, with soldiers. You can define side of soldiers, will they patrol or not, how will they patrol (only inside of building or also outside), spawning percentage, area radius, AI skill levels, and other stuff.
- reinforcementChopper.sqf
Spawns chopper which transports infantry group where ever you like and leaves after that. You can define side, does chopper land exactly on target or will it find suitable place, how far chopper comes from, from what direction it comes from, will it unload infantry group straight away or will it react against possible threats before that.
And for infantry group you can choose its target, which can either be a single marker, array of markers (if so, you can set it also to cycle these markers), or unit/object, group size, AI skill levels, and other stuff.
Changelog:
- fixed parameters - you dont need anymore to use all parameters
- replaced surfaceIsWater -loops with faster ones
- renamed reinforcementKA60.sqf as reinforcementChopper.sqf
- new parameter: type - you can now select any of the choppers in game (AH9 can also have 1 passenger)
- new parameter: captive - whole group is captive until chopper has landed (makes sure it wont get shot down "too early")
- new parameter: patrol - you can no disable infantrys patrol (handy if you want to join group to some other group)
- +commented place in script where you can easily write custom script to replace patrolling
- landing spot can now be: object/unit, marker, or position array
- patrol target can now be: unit/object, marker, array of markers, group, array of groups, or it can be directed to patrol-vD.sqf
- +new LV_fnc_follow.sqf, which has maximum patrol distance in cases of group/array of groups ("mDis0" in reinforcementChopper.sqf).
- ++there's commented places where max patrol distance fills up, so you can extend the script easily in those cases.
- fixed fillHouse error - when found only buildings which has no building positions
- new parameter in ambientCombat: patrol type - you can use the old method where units moves independently (doMove) to their target location, or you can make them use waypoints as group and define waypointType & waypointBehaviour.
- militarize.sqf: target -parameter can now be: unit/object, marker, or position array
- little fixes & cleanups
[EVO] Dan released his Basic Vehicle Respawn script on the BI forums.
Quote [EVO] Dan :
Since BIS has recently removed various scripting commands from the scripting library it has broken the old respawn script for vehicles. Therefore I updated an old one that I wrote as scripting practice some time ago. The original reason I wrote this was because I wanted better script performance because I never used all the extra functionality that Tophe's script gave you.
So far it will only do the basic respawn with a timer, no init commands will be passed to the script as of yet (I will probably add that in the next few days if I can get it to work satisfactorily). They will released as 2 different scripts so you will have a choice of how much functionality you want vs performance cost.

Bob_Gneu submitted the first release of his Helicopter Transportation script.
Quote Bob_Gneu :
This script classifies helicopters into three groups and vehicles in the map into two. This package does not require you to apply any code to any units or vehicles in game, instead it applies itself to all vehicles & units at the initialization step of loading the mission. Because it does not require itself to be applied to the units at map initialization you do not need to worry about the use of your vehicle respawn script.
