no.. windows

no.. windows

Hmmm that's weird, I remember somebody else having that issue and I don't know what they did to solve it.

[nuxil 2]

well . i have not put to much efford in trying it to get it to work. we check that the file is in the mission by depbo it. . and it is. we tried to copy the same file from the chernarus mission to takistan mission. but had no sucsess.

so i guess its some maleformed function or spawn code thats going on here.

if you remember where you saw the fix, please post link. i like to see if it works for us. ;)

I had it happen to my server once with my gungame mission earlier tonight, but it didn't happen again. I'm not really sure what causes it.

The error only happens with Takistan Version 3.03.b4a and is 100% repeatable,

had to put previous stable Takistan version on server to stop this crash from happening.

Did not notice if this was an issue before patching the server to 1.59 though.

So what do you do to make it happen?

Please list some good reproduce steps.

That is easy, I yust end Takistan 3.03.b4a with taking out HQ with the engineer AT and the server locks with the error.

(It also happens when playing a normal game, thats where we noticed it.)

ErrorMessage: Include file mpmissions\__cur_mp.Takistan\Server\Server_PlayerDisconnected.sqf not found.

Gonna try on a fresh serverinstall tonite and see if there is any change.

If noone else have this error then the fault must be at us somewere.

I haven't seen it ever happen on warfare before on my servers. All I can tell you is that the error message is bogus because that file is most definetly there and it is only called once.

I can't reproduce it on my dedicated server. Tried quite a lot.

Thank you for testing it out, something is definitely wrong at our side then sorry for the debackle.

Strange that it was only on that particular mission version, I would say that it could be a bad download from my part, but ive checked that first thing.

Yust for comparison, your server on windows or linux and version 1.59?

Windows 1.59. Works online as a client on other 1.59 (I had to test). So it's pretty updated.

How would people feel about weapon restrictions depending on rank? For example, you wouldn't get a javelin until Major or something like that.

This can help make it so vehicles can't get raped by high tech launchers till later on in the match.

Most people will love this. You will also need to restrict buying AI with Javelin.

Well what I plan to do is remove weapons on AI soldiers when they die.

Sounds like TF2 or something without the ammo refills.

I have to vote NO on this one.

Well I will not be restricting infantry extra from the current upgrade. So either their weapons will disappear on death or nothing regarding that will change.

[kotov12345 10]

everything much easy than you can expect lol.

For example need Javelin Factory - is only one place where it can be bought :)

But even easier remove option to rearm from camps :)

BIS can change Javelin soon as well as metis....limiting using price/rank etc is bad idea.Game should give option to buy any player any weapons and easy to understand how it works and not lag.

Ok then!

BALANCE - Attacking or Defending?

Is it possible to give the players like 10 dollarz per "re-capped" supply point? Just to make some balance between attacking and defending.

Ex:

You own a town with 140 supply points. The enemy caps it down to 90. You bring it back to 140. 50 X 10 = 500. You get 500. The enemy should NOT get 500.

OR

Like in TF2 when you get an achievement for blocking a cap. Baam 500 dollarz or something.

again im back with the same problem we are having. all these errors and server crashes are easy to replucate on our server.

we been scratching our heads over this one.

and we cant figure out why its happening.

we get the same error messages on all maps we tested on.

ErrorMessage: Include file mpmissions\__cur_mp.Chernarus\Server\Server_PlayerDisconnected.sqf not found.  

ErrorMessage: Include file mpmissions\__cur_mp.Takistan\Server\Server_PlayerDisconnected.sqf not found.  

ErrorMessage: Include file mpmissions\__cur_mp.lingor\Server\Server_PlayerDisconnected.sqf not found. 

i dont know if this is a bug in mission. or with arma.

init_Server does really point to

OnPlayerDisconnected "[_uid] ExecVM ""Server\Server_PlayerDisconnected.sqf""";

the weird part it that the file is really there.

i also find it weird that it errors on this file.

maybe "_name" is needed to be in the array for the execvm on OnplayerDisconnected. altho it should not be needed. afik.

we had our server to cycle through chernarus and takistan

and had to remove one map to get rid of the error messages and server hang.

at first we thought it would help to degrade one of the mission. but that was point less and had no effect.

so here is even a more weird thing.

if we have something like this in our server.cfg

 
// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below) 
class Missions {    
 class GW1    {
   template = "Gossamers_Warfare_v3_03b4a_CO.Chernarus";
   difficulty = "veteran";   
 };    
 class GW2    {    	
   template = "Gossamers_Warfare_v3_03b4a_CO.Takistan";
   difficulty = "veteran";
 };
};

the error will always happen after the 1st mission has ended.

and the server will hang.

a popup box will open on the desktop with that error.

so we have to log in to the server and press the button, damn anoying.

now. if we define only 1 map . example only chernarus. in our server.cfg

all works fine. it has no problem cycling through the chernarus map..

can you test and see if this error will happen on your server if you define them all maps in you server.cfg?

[gossamersolid 155]

Hey Nuxil, thanks for the repro instructions.

I'll give it a shot on my machine tonight.

[nuxil 2]

also has autokick on teamswap stopped working after patch 1.59?

[gossamersolid 155]

I don't think so?

I couldn't test the repro as my server is going through a transfer and upgrade... which is taking way longer than it should be taking.

I'll take a look at the teamswap kick.

[markocro 66]

autokick dosent work when new patch came out :(

[gossamersolid 155]

hmmmm you're right. Doesn't seem to kick anymore.

I swear it worked before. Can you guys confirm that in 3.03.b4a that Teamswap kick worked prior to 1.59?

[xeno 230]

hmmmm you're right. Doesn't seem to kick anymore.

[77004] Fixed: Possible ServerCommand abuse by non-admin attackers.

It was removed in one of the beta patches prior 1.59.

As a workaround you can execute a

endMission "LOSER"

on the client but it will only drop him back to the server lobby and not kick him.
