difference in sqs and sqf in my script line

[decap 10]

I am trying to get this line to run in my init.sqs

[] spawn {
 while {not isnull suv} do { "bgm" setmarkerpos getpos suv; sleep 0.5; };
};

it worked fine when my init.sqs was a sqf file. I changed it to a sqs cause the GDT spectate script I am running requires the sqs.

My question is how do I get the above code to work in a sqs instead of a sqf?

Keep it SQF and just add this to your init.sqf:

// GDT Spectate
allplayerdead=false;
winend=false;
loseend=false;
[] exec "Host\Alive_Check.sqs";
[] execVM "gdtmod\gdtmod.sqf";
[] execVM "briefing.sqf";
// End GDT Spectate

The reason it's not working as SQS is because semi-colon ( ; ) is a comment character in SQS and end of line in SQF, so you're commenting out the rest of your while loop there.

Those darned semi-colons! you're a genius kylania... thanks
