It seems that ShowGPS doesn't work in ArmA. For example, I want to make a mission where th player doesn't have GPS, but the player is a SF guy so by default, he has GPS. I've tried both ShowGPS false in an init field and ShowGPS = 0 in description.ext, but neither seems to work. Likewise, when I try and give a regular soldier GPS with ShowGPS true, it doesn't work. Am I missing something or has it really stopped functioning?

The command works just fine, but only when you're viewing the map! :blink:
Happens even in the latest 1.07.5157 beta patch..
The command syntax is showGPs false/true so showGPS = 0 does not work, obviously.
So, I tried putting showGPS = false in the description.ext, then in the init.sqs I tried showGPS false and no go..
I then put showGPS false in a radio trigger, activated it and nothing happend.
Did this same thing while viewing the map and the GPS device disappeared....

That's strange. Is there any easy way to detect if the player is viewing the map?
