WP problem
« on: 30 Apr 2005, 22:28:31 »
Situation: My squad is isolated on a small island. I gave them a 2 Wps on the main island ( Malden ), where the second WP has sidechat ( in the activation box ). The idea is that the squad gets teleported during the mission, enableing it to reach the WPs.

Problem: Few secs after I start the mission, the sidechat appears.



How can I fix this?


cheers

Check (by changing the sidechat in the WP) that you don't accidentally have the sidechat somewhere else in the mission.

I'm assuming that the sidechat appears even though the squad have not been teleported.

Do you have any setWPPos commands that could be going wrong?
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

Not really, plus this is the only sidechat of such kind in the mission. I checked it several times.

Use triggers instead of WPs to activate stuff. WPs are evil.

Their evilness usually manifests itself in things not happening simply because the WP has been missed.  Here there is a very unusual problem something is happeneing before it should.  I would bet on macguba's approach being the right one - look for things lurking the mission that you may have forgotten about.
