Title: MP scripting
Post by: BRAVO-TWO on 02 Apr 2004, 13:31:15

guys ive read all the posts on public variables but im still missing something...
i have a mission completed all works well  except one piece .
during the intro a "deploy"script is called  this makes paras
exit aircraft .. now if im testing in editor all works as it should
but when i test in mp with clan sometimes the script works sometimes it dosnt i call the script from the intro with the line
[groupname,aircraft] exec"deploy.sqs"
is there a way to make sure all players see the script
ive tried experimenting with public variables but like i said im missing something (a brain i think)

do i need to run this script on the server for all to see?
forgive my ignorance but this has got me plucked

If the intro script runs on all computers (you haven't done any tricks) then the deploy script should run on all computers too.

Can you post both the intro and deploy script here. Maybe we can pinpoint a soft spot.
If they're long, you can always attach them as txt files for easier viewing.

ive manged to get around it by calling script from a trigger
but here are the codes i was using
i would preffer to use a script as triggers are unpredictable
