Waypoints condition problem

[BlackJackVr]

Hello, i've a problem in using conditions of waypoints:

I have set a waypoint condition to: finished==1
I have set the init of my player to: finished=0
I have set a trigger OnActivation to: finished=1

But when i play the mission i always see the waypoint, also if the trigger isn't activated yet (so the variable should be set to 0).

I'm not able to undesrtand why.

Thanks

Waypoint conditions aren't reliable and there is a far easier method you can use to accomplish the same. I suggest that you delete the finished=X stuff altogether and after that do this:
Synchronize the waypoint prior to the waypoint which should go active after a condition has been met, with the trigger that activates once his condition line is true. Do this with F5 and then draw a line between the trigger and waypoint prior to the waypoint you want to hide.

Ok, now it works perfectly, thanks.

But why the waypoints conditions don't work??

Because computers are rubbish.        It's a rounding error.    Once 1 has been thrown around the machine for a while there is a good chance it is actually 1.00000000000000001.   

Never use "==x" where x is a number, it's not going to work except occasionally by accident.   Use true and false instead.

set a waypoint condition to: finished
set the init of my player to: finished=false
set a trigger OnActivation to: finished=true

But that's just for explanation, go with Cheetah's answer.
