Good day all.
I'm trying to test a mission I made, and whenever I set up a dedicated server, I crash out of the game after 10-20 minutes. I've pretty much put hints in all my scripts to see what may be running or causing me to crash out... but there's no pattern. Any ideas ?
Also (this MAY answer the first bit) but when using the dedicated server... it's on the machine that I'm also playing on... Would that be what's causing it to crash ?

Why not try to play the mission without running it on the dedicated? If it doesn't crash then, it shouldn't crash on a dedicated.

RIGHT.
Should have mentioned that it doesn't crash in preview or on a lan server thingy.
(I meant to add that in there... )

Playing and hosting a dedicated on the same machine does suck up a lot of resources. I wouldn't be supriced if your computer simply drops dead and gives up on either at some point. May not be anything in your scripts.

Alrighty. Thanks a bunch.
-
if its crashing when on a dedicated server with multiple clients connecting, use of external mods such as ecp, finmod or wgl can cause some clashes
or maybe its an addon problem, if you are using addons in the mission

Damn, I should learn to be more specific when posting problems. ;D Just I am connected to the server. No mods, and I have all the add-ons I'm using in the mission. I think Artak probably hit the nail on the head. Just wondering if it was a fairly common thing that could be addressed.
